During the most recent Real Time, host Bill Maher had an exchange on ageism with former DNC acting chair Donna Brazile; Maher tells Brazil Joe Biden is too old to be president.
“What do you think of prominent Democrats like David Axelrod calling for Biden to, quote, ‘get out or get going’ … Did he say that? Get out or get going?” Maher said.
“I believe in a tweet or two and some stuff. Look, people think that Joe Biden is is is perhaps too old. They’re right,” Brazile conceded.
“Perhaps?” Maher shot back.
“You know so, Betty White lived to be 99. Mick Jagger is still twisting his a**,” she said.
“I have been the one making that case year after year here against ageism. I always said it’s a case-by-case basis but …” Maher agreed, with one caveat: But for that argument to have teeth at all, you also have to be the person who can go, Yeah, but this is the case.”
“And I’ve said it before. Do I think Joe Biden can do the job? Absolutely. I don’t think he can win the job. And that’s what I care about. He’s going to lose. Because the people think he’s too old. And perception is reality. I’m sorry,” he concluded.

During another part of the show, Maher blasted Brazile for mispronouncing Vivek Ramaswamy’s name and calling her out for racism.
“I just feel like there’s something wrong with everybody refusing to learn to say his name. I just feel there’s a little racism there,” Maher added.
