Age limits don't solve the problem. 'Respect your elders' comes to mind?
If their guy were leading in the polls they wouldn't be doing it.
What the msm SHOULD be asking, but they aren't, is who the hell has been actually running things? As it is clearly not him.
An overwhelming majority of Americans think President Joe Biden is too old to serve another term, according to a new ABC News/Ipsos poll.
According to the poll, conducted using Ipsos' Knowledge Panel, 86% of Americans think Biden, 81, is too old to serve another term as president. That figure includes 59% of Americans who think both he and former President Donald Trump, the Republican front-runner, are too old and 27% who think only Biden is too old.
Sixty-two percent of Americans think Trump, who is 77, is too old to serve as president. There is a large difference in how partisans view their respective nominees -- 73% of Democrats think Biden is too old to serve but only 35% of Republicans think Trump is too old to serve. Ninety-one percent of independents think Biden is too old to serve, and 71% say the same about Trump.

“THIS IS THE TRUMP STOCK MARKET,” Trump trumpeted recently on his social media site as the stock market reached unprecedented heights.
The wealth of Black and Hispanic families grew 61 and 47 percent, respectively, between 2019 and 2022, and 31 percent among white families.
Opinion: Age is one thing, when it comes to leadership — sanity is another
A special counsel’s comment about Joe Biden’s age has triggered an energetic debate about the president’s mental acuity compared to that of GOP presumptive nominee Donald Trump. Veteran columnist Walter Shapiro (who doesn’t reveal his own age) says Biden’s decision to run for reelection “may prove to be the most self-indulgent act by a Democrat president in modern history.”
So far in this campaign year, Biden’s age is getting much more attention than his record as one of America’s most effective presidents — so effective that Trump often tries to take credit for Biden’s accomplishments. “THIS IS THE TRUMP STOCK MARKET,” Trump trumpeted recently on his social media site as the stock market reached unprecedented heights.
Biden has presided over recovery from the pandemic (all the jobs lost from COVID were regained by 2022) with an economy stronger than any other country’s. America’s infrastructure is finally being repaired, and the nation is making unprecedented investments in clean energy and resilience to climate change. The wealth of Black and Hispanic families grew 61 and 47 percent, respectively, between 2019 and 2022, and 31 percent among white families.
The worst thing we can say about Biden’s performance is that he doesn’t brag about it enough.
