In an interview with a television network, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis expressed his doubts about the suitability of Donald Trump, who turned 77 in June, as a presidential candidate due to his age. DeSantis argued that the presidency is a demanding role that should not be entrusted to someone in their late 70s.
Drawing parallels to President Joe Biden, who will turn 81 on Monday, DeSantis emphasized that “Father Time is undefeated” and that Trump is not exempt from the effects of aging. DeSantis further highlighted his own age as a significant advantage, suggesting that he, being in the prime of his life, would make a superior candidate for the GOP.
