I suppose it’s fair to call a poll fake news. That seems to be in fashion these days. I appreciate your posts WS because they remind me that mine isnt the only bubble that exists.
At the end of the day i still find it hard to believe that trump will do as well as ge did in 2016. He’s not done anything to try to expand his base. And with only 46% of voters voting for him then he doesnt have room to lose any voters. If 2018’s results are to be believed it appears that he’s definitely lost a sizable chunk of them. There simply arent enough old or uneducated white dudes in the country for him to win the day in 2020.
Warren is 69; Biden is 76; Sanders is 77. Trump is 72.
For those who talk about 'too old', just what is your cut off? At what age do you think politicians should be put out to pasture?
If you feel that way, then obviously, don't vote for that person who is older than you think she or he should be, and the primary process will straighten it all out.
And I guess the corollary is, what do think is "too young" for the job? Is there such a thing if you believe that some people are too old to hold the job--what is the allowable range for you?
I was actually think of a ticket with Sanders at the top and someone like Beto or Gabbard (a Bernie protege) as veep.
With the sad fact that if he were to pass away (presumably the fear with someone of that age) there is someone young to take his place.
Maybe it would feel more balanced by age and be more palatable to voters?
