President Biden’s age has become a topic of widespread concern, even among Democrats, according to a new Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research survey. The results revealed that 77% of respondents believed the 80-year-old commander-in-chief was too old to be an effective leader in a second term. Shockingly, 69% of Democrats shared this sentiment, despite their overwhelming support for his initial election.

The survey also found that voters want age limits imposed on Supreme Court justices and members of Congress, with 67% of voters supporting mandatory retirement ages for justices. In addition, 68% of voters supported age limits for house and senate candidates, and 66% supported an age ceiling for presidential candidates.

Furthermore, it was found that even when participants weren’t prompted to think about it, Biden’s age was considered problematic in word association exercises. 26% of participants mentioned Biden’s age, with 15% using terms such as “slow” or “confused.” Even within the Democratic Party, 28% of participants mentioned his age upfront, indicating significant concern. Some participants even went as far as to describe him as “senile.”

It is alarming that the leader of the free world shows signs of cognitive decline. This should be a major concern for Americans who want a strong and capable leader in the White House. Yet, despite the evidence, Democrats continue to stand behind him.

Moreover, the survey revealed that voters are more comfortable with President Trump’s age, even though he is only a few years younger than Biden. Only 51% of U.S. adults said that the GOP candidate was too old to effectively serve a four-year term. Unsurprisingly, this belief was outweighed by Democrats, with 71% and Republicans only at 28%.

The future of American politics is at risk if we continue to elect elderly leaders who are not capable of performing their duties effectively. The time has come to implement age limits for all candidates who seek positions of leadership in our government. We cannot afford to have leaders who are “confused” or “senile” in a time when the world is facing unprecedented challenges.

It is crucial that we take action and put an end to this trend of electing geriatric leaders. We must demand more from our politicians, and we must hold them accountable for their actions. The future of our country is at stake, and we cannot afford to be complacent. If we want a better future for America, we must act now.
