And GOP openly fears Trump loss as Harris crushes 'oddball' JD Vance [VIEW IN BROWSER]( MSNBC DAILY Understand today's news Thursday, Aug. 01, 2024 THE LATEST [Alternate text] [Trump is still too old to be president]( By]( James Downie In a [Washington Post/ABC News poll]( taken after the presidential debate in June, 86% of Americans said President Joe Biden was too old to serve a second term. This survey and similar findings played an essential role in Biden’s decision to depart the presidential race, directly rebutting the president’s contention that only donors and media elites wanted him not to run. Vice President Kamala Harris’ momentum since entering the race, while running on a platform almost identical to Biden’s, has only confirmed the depth of voters’ concerns about the president’s age. And yet since Biden dropped out, it has been largely forgotten that many voters are also rightly concerned about Donald Trump’s age. In the [same Post/ABC poll](, 60% of Americans, including 65% of independents, said Trump is too old for another term.
