Oof! Just when you thought things couldnāt get worse, it might be time to dust off the 25th Amendment in case Trump manages to steal the 2024 election.
Much of the debate in the Trump and Biden campaigns has centered on age. Joe Biden, at 81, and Donald Trump, at 78, have both been criticized for being too old to run again. Yet, oddly enough, most of the criticism has been directed at Biden, despite Trump being only a few years younger.
The pressure on Biden to step down eventually became too much, leading to his vice president, Kamala Harris, taking his place at 59.
Thereās no question that the focus on age has largely come from Trumpās camp, whose base often deflects reality onto their opponents. But now, the strategy seems to be backfiring as Trump begins to look like the older candidate. In fact, letās be honestāhe is an old man. Recent photos of him in Arizona make that all too clear.

Looks like he might use “death” as an excuse to get out of the Harris debate.

Trumpās latest speech focused on the border, which was obvious as he stood beside a section of the border wall. During his remarks, he ranted about Kamala Harris being soft on border security, mentioning everything from tunnels being dug beneath the wall to other off-the-cuff claims, all without the aid of a teleprompter.
Supporters in the camera frame echoed his concerns, sharing personal stories of how border-related crimes have affected their families, further pushing Trump’s narrative.
However, following the televised Democratic National Convention this week, it remains uncertain whether Trump will gain any ground in the polls against Harris. If the way he looks in recent photos is any indication, it might be hitting him where it hurts mostāhis ego.
