In a YouGov poll conducted between July 25-29, 59 percent of Republicans surveyed said they would prefer a president under the age of 75. Trump celebrated his 78th birthday in June. Forty percent said they had no preference, and just two percent said they would prefer a president over the age of 75.

    Willing to step down is giving him too much credit. He was pushed out because Dems know he’ll lose. The parties are the same. It’s just business. They don’t love or care about you.

        Yeah like how convince people to resign after doing something terrible. It wasn’t Biden’s idea. You didn’t hear all the stuff he was saying after the debate? Come on

          It’s almost like he had the self awareness to change his mind when presented with compelling, new information.

          It’s what mature adults do

          If you think the only way any adult can change their mind is if they’re forced to, it speaks more of you than them.

            The new and compelling information was that they wanted his ass out.

            Damn. You Biden’s #1 fan. And think so highly of politicians. It’s business. People don’t want to lose money and power. Biden isn’t immune to this.

              Yes it was. Gold star for you.

              I must be his #1 fan because reasons.

              Have an ice cream cone or something man. It’ll help that attitude.

                I knew it. You’re in love with him. You wanna share a cone with him and accidentally (but actually purposefully) go for the last lick together, pause and look into each other’s eyes bashfully, then proceed to make out. So obvious that’s what you wanna do.

      Biden still stepped down, Trump never will. These are not the same picture.

          59% of Republicans want someone younger than Trump as president.

          Republicans also don’t want Trump to step down.

          At least they’re consistent in not knowing what they want.

            That’s one from one survey. And even so, that doesn’t mean that’s gonna sway them away from not voting for the guy. They’d still vote. People wouldn’t vote for Biden so Dems had to change. That’s a big difference.
