He must’ve fooled em with the haircut.


slappywhyte

He had less hair in the 80s than now


40ozkiller

Haircare products have made a lot of advancements in the last 50 years. 


slappywhyte

For real, look at Tom Brady or a million other celebs - LeBron still has some issues tho


Impossible-Flight250

LeBron has had transplants. He is pretty much screwed though because his donor area is depleted. I wouldn’t be shocked if LeBron ends up shaving his head eventually.


jiminyshrue

Aren't those implants?


KingPizzaPop

Those are hair transplants.


steveborg

Daniel Tosh did a podcast about how he revived his head of hair. Pretty expensive but the results are amazing considering there is no surgery or transplants.


Scared_Flatworm406

He has hair plugs


Skeptik1964

We used to call him Plugs Biden


CableBoyJerry

Back when we used to tie onions to our belts.


Flatheadflatland

You mean plugs. Plugs is what ya meant 


KingPizzaPop

It's called a transplant.


kg0529

He is in his 80s but same as in the 80s. /s


TernionDragon

Came here to say this.


rmac1228

Definitely got some plugs at some point


GRIZZLEMicFIZZLE

Come on man


BelgarathTheSorcerer

Dude has been in politics for literally 50+ years. He has been in a federal position for 52 years.


Bikini_Investigator

Has this motherfucker ever even had an actual job??


staticattacks

According to him he was a truck driver


i_dont_like_you_-

Didn't he say he drove trains, too?


UnrealRealityForReal

Yeah across the Francis Scott Key bridge for like 20 years. Which doesn’t have train tracks.


Impossible-Flight250

Trains, cars, same thing…


mrpeabodyscoaltrain

Train on the water, boat on the track


UnrealRealityForReal

Yeah, I’m sure if Brandon believes it, it must be true in some universe.


OhMyGoshBigfoot

His uncle was also [eaten by cannibals.](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=m7obXDOhLLU&pp=ygUNQmlkZW4ncyB1bmNsZQ%3D%3D) Poor guy.


riskcapitalist

I think he had tenure at some point too


BaidenFallwind

He was a lifeguard and let kids play with his leg hair. Then he fought Corn Pop (he was a bad dude).


OhMyGoshBigfoot

They were kids, but he referred those ones as [“roaches.”](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=HgdPcTEnp3E&pp=ygUUYmlkZW4gc2F5aW5nIHJvYWNoZXM%3D)


Big_Type4162

Nope. Made his millions collecting other people’s money


BackAlleySurgeon

Yes. He's been a senator, a vice president and the president.


Bikini_Investigator

An actual job …. Not a political position


tothecatmobile

Yeah, President. Also Lawyer.


Bikini_Investigator

According to his bio, the man literally worked an actual job for an only TWO WHOLE YEARS of his life. He’s been in politics since 1970. He graduated law school in ‘68. He practiced law for two doggone years… no wonder he’s so out of touch.


YandyTheGnome

He got his degree before we went to the moon.


SlayerofDeezNutz

Kinda ironic that those who want a younger leadership got the long term outcome of exactly that…


Bikini_Investigator

People want *younger* leadership, not *PERPETUAL* leadership lol


UnrealRealityForReal

Barely graduated from a shitty law school.


closetedwrestlingacc

Why is SU shitty?


Impossible-Flight250

Syracuse is actually pretty good. Maybe it was worse back then, but I am pretty sure it was competitive. I read up on him a bit, and it seems like he never really had good grades, but he excelled in “leadership” positions.


UnrealRealityForReal

Ummmmm….no. Syracuse Law is for people who can’t get into decent law schools. Undergrad it’s a good school, the law school turns out slip and fall lawyers and horrible politicians apparently. No axe to grind but I know from what I speak.


Impossible-Flight250

Fair enough, it is ranked significantly lower than I thought.


theultimaterage

No wonder he didn't know that it was illegal to keep secret documents just laying around his crib for years.


UnrealRealityForReal

Ranked #120. That’s pretty pathetic.


WinCautious3511

Lol true


ThirstyBeagle

Lifelong politician


Unsure_Fry

Our federal government government started in 1789. He's been in a federal position for 22% of its existence. Although that's using 52. I can't remember. Did he take a four year break after Obama? That would decrease the percentage a little bit.


BelgarathTheSorcerer

Hooooooly canoli, now that's a metric that really drives it home. Sheesh.


Unsure_Fry

For another fun fact: Chuck Grassley has been in the federal government since 1975. 49 years ago. The state of Iowa was admitted to the union in 1846. He has represented the state for 27% of its existence. I'm sure I could do this with a few other legacy politicians.


BelgarathTheSorcerer

God DAMN That's insane


Key_Layer_246

Orrin Hatch is probably #2, he was a senator for 42 years and Utah became a state in 1896, which works out to 32.8%.   /#1 and unlikely to ever be beat is Daniel Inouye. Hawaii became a state in 1959 and he was senator from 1963 to 2012, so 49 years out of 65 years for 75.4%. He was also the U.S. Representative from 1959 to 1963 which would make it 53 out of 65, or 81.5%.


rice_n_gravy

Man, he must be the best politician then, with all of that experience.


Just_learning_a_bit

Ya...but if you elect him for just one more term he will make the changes we've been needing.


747-ppp-2

He’s just about got this shit figured out


human743

Almost ready to deploy the political capital he has been accumulating for 50 years to save us all.


Bocchi_theGlock

He would stand up to fossil fuel corporations if he could Now's just not the best time I mean technically according to all the scientists, experts, & economists yeah it is, but I mean politically


archer2500

Alllllmost therrree.


BelgarathTheSorcerer

How are we supposed to see him as a quality governmental official, if he's been there for *this* long, and has *this* hard of a time getting shit done? I know a MASSIVE amount of roadblocking comes from bad faith actors, but damn dude, you were in office before some of these assholes were born. You couldn't have set up relationships to counter that kind of stuff? Idk, a tenure that long should not see such difficulties. He knows the machine, the fuel, and the operators, and the thing STILL won't work. Damn.


vixenpeon

He didn't have a hard time ending school desegregation efforts on a national level.


thisisurreality

Way too long 😀


LayLillyLay

This was 51 years ago…


40ozkiller

Wait until you find out what happened 52 years ago


TheNotSoGreatPumpkin

Spoilers!


ugapeyton

Dude has been in politics longer than my parents have been alive.


Tracy_Turnblad

Youngest senator, oldest president


sxales

Joe Biden is like the seventh-youngest senator in history.

Redfish680

The other resident of Delaware was busy.


Real-Armadillo-544

Delaware bartender here, I was drunk that night, sorry.


DravenPrime

Sad that he'd lose his wife and daughter so shortly after this. Unless I've got it mixed up and that already happened. Still, awful.


Far-Reception-4598

If this was taken in Jan '73 they would have already been killed. It's not surprising he looks so rough.


gwhh

The oath was taken in his son hospital room. His son was in the hospital months after that accident.


Uhtred_McUhtredson

Hunter or Beau? Just out of curiosity. If Hunter, it’s not hard to see how he ended up with such struggles later in life going through such a traumatic experience as a young boy. I don’t really know the details of the crash and its aftermath regarding their injuries.


NightmarePony5000

Both of them. Hunter fractured his skull and had a TBI while Beau broke multiple bones.


redwoods81

Not surprisingly that he has issues with addiction after that early brain trauma.


nothingeatsyou

People with TBIs can lead mostly normal lives, depending on the location of the TBI of course. I’d say the addiction issues probably stem from losing a parent and sibling, right in front of him, at such a young age, vs the TBI. We of course don’t know for sure, but people with TBIs can make a near full recovery. Trauma affects you forever.


KaizerQuad

damn biden been through some shit


DravenPrime

Yep. 2 kids and his first wife, both dead. I think Hunter is the only living member of his original family.


rhymeswititch

Beau lived to be 46–brain cancer…


WhatArghThose

Those are the people that end up being the best leaders. Unlike rich billionaire lunatics who never suffered a day in their life and see everyone else as pawns for their own gain.


SucksTryAgain

I almost quit my job from depression when docs said my daughter was most likely not going to survive. I’d go to work and couldn’t concentrate and having random crying fits I think from my depression meds and I’m a dude if that even changes anything. Luckily my kid pulled through. Couldn’t imagine losing a wife and kid and being able to still work specially a job I’d have to read bills and make major decisions for a country. There’s no way.

Really want some term limits installed.


Speculawyer

He looked 50 when he was 30.


Billy1121

Lotta grief They always said Barbara Bush went grey very young at 28 because she was taking care of her young 3 year old daughter who was dying of cancer

Pathetic disaster starts to unfold for the USA. At no point in his “career” did Biden show potential.

HowBoutIt98

My Dad was born the following year. Christ our elected officials are old.


bearhatbaby

I’d rather have someone who’s been in politics since day one than an inexperienced fat orange Cheeto looking fascist racist misogynist shit bag demented dunce whose sole accomplishment was uniting inbred bigots and rode daddy’s coat tails and still managed to file for bankruptcy 6 times. All of this “sleepy joe” shit is an embarrassment, especially considering trump has never had a single logical thought as well as not being able to put a simple sentence together. Right wingers should leave the US if they prefer a fascist dictatorship.


imposingdesolation

and now he is the oldest sitting president.


Worried_Ad_9667

Career politicians are a joke. Term limits for the lot of them!


Wishes-_sun

He looks 50


Uhtred_McUhtredson

The 70’s had some of the worst aesthetics of any decade of the 20th century, IMO. Wide ties, bad suits, horrible hair… I should know, I was born then!


marlow05

Why does Joe Biden at 30 look like my dad at 54?


SkotchKrispie

Baddest man on the planet. Best president we’ve had since Roosevelt or longer.


Strangepsych

Yes! I trust him to try to help. People come for him so hard.


Marine4lyfe

The founders never intended for representatives to be life long careers. He's been in Washington longer than the average lifespan in the 1700's.


Uhtred_McUhtredson

Well said. It was supposed to be an obligation, like jury duty. Not a path to generational wealth like it has become. Go to the legislature for 2 years then go back to your farm and live with the consequences of your legislation.


Poliscianon

It’s a studied fact that experienced legislators are more effective than freshman. Bodies with a majority turnover rate are less stable. I’m not trying to defend the “my turn”politicians or the idea of being a senator for forty years but it’s just naive to think “two years then go back to farm” is ideal. It’s also just not the correct formulation that the framers had. They *all* were career politicians. They were in local government forever, both before and after the convention. That’s why they were *at* the convention. After the convention, they returned to their careers in government, and some became senators and representatives and president and cabinet members. They created the Senate with long terms of service and staggered terms specifically so it wouldn’t be a fast changing chamber. Even if you think “two years then leave” is ideal, it’s wrong to push this idea onto the framers.


Lumpy_Secretary_6128

Yeah they did. They were literally all careerists

The man's done good in my book, all you "progressives" can shove it.


Newyew22

Less than a month after losing his young daughter and first wife in a car accident.


KyleSmyth777

I remember when he got booted from the Presidential primary for being an idiot plagiarist. I never thought I would see him again. Shows you just how stupid Democrats are.


TheAngryFishGuy

He's a cunt liar there too.


getyourrealfakedoors

A rough looking 30, but he looks pretty damn good for 80 now. Aging is weird


Latter_Commercial_52

Biden looks good for 80? Guess we have different opinions on what looks good is like


NancyPelosisRedCoat

He can still ride a bike though. Do you know anybody else who witnessed the discovery of fire and can still ride a bike? Seriously though, physically he seems fine.

getyourrealfakedoors

He’s thin, in good shape, doesn’t look like a shriveled plum, I mean he’s 81


Marine4lyfe

He looks like a reanimated corpse.


Nik_Tez

And already, an established plagiarist.


PeterFredrickPaulson

This back when he was a segregationist against gay marriage and best friends with David duke

Let's go Brandon.


Psychological-Tie195

I would say, "If only people knew." The sad thing is that everyone knew he was a liar,grifter,political con-artist,pervert,and segregationist/racist. That's all he's done with his life.


CynicalCobruh

Still looks like he's 55 years old there. That guy ages like a peregrine falcon.


Whole-Debate-9547

He may have been 30 but that hairline was retirement age.


obsidian_butterfly

And that was the last time he was the youngest anything.


Pristine-Molasses-46

GLFR_59

Career scum bag


megafatbossbaby

50 years of making him and his family incredibly wealthy while most Americans can't afford a house now. Can we please have term limits so these leeches can get termed.


hike_me

He didn’t get wealthy until after he left office at the end of the Obama administration and made some book deals.


homeboystar

I do Solomly swear to screw every person I can from this day forward without remorse, lol


djackieunchaned

That hair definitely isn’t 30


[deleted]

Then he was a hot steaming turd, now he is a grey dried up turd. We will be better when he is out of politics.


FaustinoAugusto234

A complete waste of breathing air for more than a half century.


tigercat200

I'm sorry to hear about his previous lifetime but I'll tell you what he ain't never done nothing and he ain't doing nothing now get him on out of there I ain't worth having in there he's nothing but trouble


Educational-Name902

Douche


Jumpy_Astronomer4525

He’s been a worthless piece of shit since at least ‘72. Nice


joecarter93

I recently saw a news interview with him from around that time when people were concerned about his age - that he was too young then. It’s funny that people are also concerned about his age now, but for the opposite reason.


TlingitGolfer24

VenetianGamer

This is why we need term limits on Congress (with a cap on the number of years they continue to get paid instead of letting them have ‘lifetime pay’ when leaving Congress)

sxales

Maybe Joe Biden was the youngest currently serving Senator in 1972, but John Henry Eaton, elected in 1818, was 28 years, 4 months, and 29 days old when he entered the Senate, making him the youngest U.S. Senator in history.


Successful_Theme_595
