(Daily Mail) If the Democrats thought they had escaped the optics of an old man in the White House with the defenestration of Joe Biden they may have to think again.
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has been besieged by unflattering comments about his aged appearance since Kamala Harris picked him as her nomination for VP on Tuesday morning.
The 60-year-old is just a few months older than Harris but posters on social media are falling over themselves to point out celebrities including Brad Pitt and Tom Cruisewho are still older but look much younger.
Some are even suggesting that 78-year-old comedian Steve Martin is a dead ringer for the balding politician and should return to play him on Saturday Night Live.
But the former high school teacher launched a pre-emptive strike on social media last month, telling one critic he aged because he ‘supervised the lunchroom for 20 years.
‘You do not leave that job with a full head of hair. Trust me,’ he added.
