No, just a massive failure by the Democrats who decided too late to run Harris. Any candidate who won a party primary would have beaten Trump today. Harris lost because she wasn't popular enough with her own party's voters to win.

Definitely some merit to this. Biden was obviously too old in 2020 and didn't have the good sense to pass the torch last year.

Trump is older than 2020 Biden.

Yes. Trump was too old in 2016 too.

Yet Trump went on multi-hour podcasts while the current sitting president of the US hasn't been seen in weeks.

Trump will be older and weaker than Biden today in 2028.
JD Vance hopefully can 25th Amendment the Trump before senile behavior wrecks the office. But I'm worried that Trump stays in all 4 years and does irreparable harm.
25th Amendment powers have never been used before. So it's not clear how far Trump will degrade while still holding onto power.

That's the preferable option to letting Vance near the presidency, sadly.
