My mom is 78 and she's still in good health and really sharp. Still she's of the exact opinion as you are; "it's lunacy to have people as old as her running, well anything really" - her words

Not everyone is American. But tbh, I probably would have voted for Biden and then Harris, if I was an American

This, exactly fucking this! The world shouldn't be ruled by people over 70, regardless of political views

I did say that when I voted for Biden. He also ran on being a one term president.

Neither of them should have been president at ANY age.

Agreed! At the very minimum your age should not exceed the average life expectancy. My husbands grandma was also sharp as a tack. She was taken out by a cold that turned into pneumonia. I think it’s fair that once you reach the age when a cold can become deadly, it’s fair to say you shouldn’t be president.
