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.
Yeah, they had a proper primary unlike the Dems with the incumbent situation. No one to blame but themselves here.
My sympathy for the Republican party is immeasurable (as in, too small to measure).
