According to life expectancy data, the average American man has a 42% chance of making it to age 85. Joe Biden would be 86 at the end of a second term in office. That means Kamala Harris would have a 58% chance of becoming President.

Those are the odds *from birth.* For someone who's already close to that age and in reasonably good health the chances are much higher.
Add this to the already endless list of things Charlie Kirk doesn't understand.
3 things.
1. As pointed out, it's a life expectancy for the entire lifespan. It's not "whelp, thr average teenager has sex 4 times before hitting 18. You're 17, enjoy getting laid!" cartoon logic. If he's already in his eighties the chances of him living another few years are good. Granted I think we should have some fresher blood running, but that's me.
2. Looking at the "average" life expectancy is mostly irrelevant when you consider Biden has been enjoying a much higher quality of life than the average citizen for decades. It means he's the higher end of the spectrum that puts the average where it is.
3. Trump is only 4 years younger than Biden. Any of the old man jokes or worries about his longevity not only also apply to Trump, but would more considering his shitty diet and terrible personal habits health wise. And presumably all the drugs.

Don’t threaten us with a good time, Chuckie Kack.
The current president’s previous boss induced Derangement Syndrome of a kind we of the left haven’t seen for ages. Harris Derangement Syndrome in you rightards would give us Schadenfreude of the sort that you would never live down, Chucko.
First, that’s not how life expectancy works. Secondly, why is this supposed to be so scary, especially because she would not have much time left in office (well, we all know why, but put it in your own words…). Thirdly, it’s not that Trump is really all that much younger.

They’re afraid they’ll have to actually learn how to pronounce Kamala.
Hey, it took me a while to realize it wasn’t pronounced quite the same as the name of the pro wrestler “Kamala” aka “the Ugandan Giant.” (RIP) Though, it kinda gave me a chuckle to realize when I looked up Kamala the wrestler just now, I forgot, his real name was James HARRIS, lol.
Well that would certainly make him an elder statesman, but that's Ok because there have been others. Are you so scared he might die in office? So terrible the dream of a girl president, Kamala certainly isn't dancing in the video with 50 Cent. Let alone having another person of colour in the White House.
Yeah that would be cool by me. The sort of people who would whinge about that... are snowflakes who deserve the winter of their discontent.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
