Sadly, you know, I think for a variety of reasons he should not. I just, I don't think either Trump or Biden should be running.
The midterms really helped him. They transformed the race, best midterm elections for any president in 20 years.
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?
I think a lot of Americans do see it as disqualifying. And they're worried about it.
