    You know it will probably be either the Harris reelection effort, or no election due to complications from Trumpitis

      Harris against Trump Jr. and they will claim Harris is too old.

        Damn, I just found out Kamala is almost 60…

        I don’t know why I thought Biden would have picked someone young enough to be president after him.

        Should have gotten one of the “kids” in their 40s.

        We need to stop running elderly people, if Biden had done two and she did two after, she’d be in her 70s too

        We’re stuck in this situation where we demand “experience” but the people holding the spots that count for “experience” are decades past retirement age.

          Even if she would serve two terms in a row, she would still only be 67 by the time shes finished, so thats still way younger than what Trump or Biden have been during their terms.

            Right.

            But apparently Biden always intended to run twice, making her 71 at the end of her second term…

            But 67 is still too old for lots of people. And above everything thing else the presidency is a popularity contest.

            Younger candidates like Obama and Bill get more votes, which carries down ballot races, and let’s us get the House and Senate so the president can get shit done.

              I Don’t follow. In your example Biden would have served as president while 85. 71 is a problem in this logic how?

                . In your example Biden would have served as president while 85. 71 is a problem in this logic how?

                Simple, my standards don’t get lowered everytime someone doesn’t meet them.

                We could have an 150 year old president and I’d still say 71 is a problem. Even if I voted for the 150 year old.

          Almost 60 is fine. She’s still got the majority of her mental faculties that she had at her peak. Low chance of her just randomly kicking over at any given time unlike the two candidates we had in this election until yesterday.

            It is.

            But if Biden did a second term, she’d be 64.

            And 72 at the end of her two terms.

            Which is why I’m saying Biden should have picked a you Obama type who’s a decade younger for VP.

            Instead of someone who would be in their 70s if everything went to plan.

      Gotta keep the pressure up.

      Make her promise to an open and fair 2028 primary before the 2024 election.

      None of this wishwashy shit where everyone close to Biden promise it’s a one turn thing, but the candidate doesn’t understand how shitty of a candidate they are.

      Kamala’s gonna win because she’s not trump. Not because she’s what Dem voters want.
