I think a lot of Americans do see it as disqualifying. And they're worried about it.
I think this the very idea that in 2024, we may have two men running against each other Biden and Trump, who would both be in their 80s if elected, that it too is enough to say, well, what are we doing here?

It's very, very big. Not legally, but politically, it's a very, very big deal.
