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.

      I imagine it’s like those people Jordan Klepper interviews at Trump rallies that go like this:

      Jordan: Do you think a candidate who’s almost 80 is too old?

      Person: Yeah.

      J: …and Trump is 78.

      Person: Yeah.

      J: So he’s too old and someone younger would be better.

      Person: For sure.

      J: So who do you want for president?

      Person: I’m voting Trump.

        Jordan: Do you think that a sentient pile of goo trained in a laboratory to hate all human life and subject it to fiery nuclear death is a good candidate?

        Person: No.

        J: Trump is actually a robot inhabited by that goo. Here is clear, simple, factual and verifiable evidence. Here are multiple videos and sources confirming that Trump wants to kill us all.

        Person: Yeah.

        J: So, Trump is a bad candidate who will murder your children.

        Person: Yep.

        J: Who are you voting for?

        Person: Trump, he’ll go after the alphabet mafia first. And, to be honest, he’s just saying he’ll kill everyone to be edgy and noticeable.

        A reason why some German Jews supported Hitler was that they thought that his anti-Semitism was only for “stirring up the masses”.
