Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) went after former President Trump for his legal woes in an interview on MSNBC Saturday.

“I’ll take the individual who’s 81 over the guy who has 91 felony counts,” Swalwell said, making a reference to President Biden’s age in an interview on MSNBC’s “The Katie Phang Show” on Saturday.

“It’s not about two individuals,” Swalwell continued, speaking about the 2024 election. “It’s about the idea of competence versus chaos, or even greater, freedom versus fascism. If we make it about those ideas, and what they mean in our daily lives, we’re gonna win.”

Swalwell’s comments come after Trump was ordered to pay almost $355 million in penalties in a civil fraud case and amid increased scrutiny faced by the president on his age and memory in the wake of a special counsel report on Biden’s handling of classified documents. The report noted that Biden had problems with memory and recall.

    Sounds like you’ve already decided I support Israel, so I doubt anything I say about that would change your mind.

    But do feel free to support that decision with evidence.

      If you’re supporting Biden, you’re supporting Israel. Do I need to explain how that train of thought works?

        Please tell me which candidate that has a chance of winning that I should vote for in order to keep the traitor rapist wannabe dictator out of office. I’ll consider voting for them. Because I don’t like genocide either. And I don’t want to see my queer daughter being part of the Republican genocide they dream about.

          I’m not here to help you morally justify your vote. You’ll have to live with your choice for the rest of your life.

          Surely you have other options besides genocide abroad and genocide domestic.

            Again, please name the candidate that has a chance of winning.

              I guess it’s time to rise up and say no more genocide.

                That’s not a name. How am I supposed to know who to vote for if it shouldn’t be Trump or Biden if you can’t even give me a name?

                    So because you can’t give me a name for who to vote for, I support genocide?

                    It sounds like you’re saying I will support genocide no matter who I vote for.

                    So should I just not vote?
