18 years ago, I would have been cheering for Rudy with everyone else, but we all age in various ways. I know I have.
Rudy will be 75 next year. 75 these days is not OLD-old necessarily, but politics and multiple costly divorces can age a man rapidly.
My objections to Rudy have nothing to do with his age (he’s only 3 years older than Trump), and everything to do with his liberalism. On immigration and gun rights, he always has been and would be a disaster.
