Pray for his health…he would be almost 80 at inauguration.

That’s too old for my vote. We need to stop electing old folks.

President Trump will be fitter, stronger, smarter at 80 than Biden was at 60.

Ronald Reagan was older. Didn’t stop him from being one of the best presidents ever.

Reading his autobiography now.

I agree. MAGA can move forward under the leadership of someone younger, more focused, and disciplined, and hopefully with President Trump's full endorsement.

If MAGA is dependent solely on Donald Trump to carry the banner, it will fail as a political movement.

It's time for Boomers to step aside.

President Trump comes from sturdy stock where longevity is a given.

This is a man who didn’t drink or smoke and btw, he’s eating well, lost weight a d is ready to take up the fight for Americans.

Never underestimate God’s chosen man.

I agree with not electing older people to office. While experience is nice there is also the simple fact of cognitive decline once we pass a certain age. I consider myself very astute, mentally sharp, but I also know where I have slowed down mentally. It comes with age and Trump would be pushing an age where you do indeed lose a few steps.

It is time that we older folks start finding those younger people who we think would make good leaders for the future. We have the time, at least those of us retired, to mentor those younger candidates. It is not only money but what the views of the younger candidates are that need to be front and center. I am not interested in what their religious views are, nor do I want candidates that are either pro or against abortions,or candidates that are screaming green power advocates. I want candidates that understand and can work with people who have opposing views on issues but is willing to try and find a common ground to deal with problems. Not more of the hyper partisan politics we have going on now.

I only have a few good, productive years left and I would like to bring the next generation of leaders along and help this country yet again rise up as a beacon of sanity and freedom and not become a theocracy, or a socialist country, or one that is constantly at one another’s throats. At least I will be able to look at my nephews and say “I tried to fix it”.

Re: 17 - Agreed, it’s time for a group of younger conservatives to challenge Democrats at the national level.
