David Drucker, senior correspondent for the conservative Washington Examiner, told an MS NOW panel that President Donald Trump’s ‘old people’ style is beginning to weigh down Republicans for the midterms.

Drucker delivered his opinion after a clip showing Trump ally podcaster Joe Rogan slamming the president for his hateful response to the murder of Hollywood director Rob Reiner.

“There’s a lot of things that doesn’t feel real,” Rogan told a guest, while discussing Trump’s advanced age. “The Rob Reiner thing didn’t seem real. That seemed so insane.”...

Donald Trump is "manifesting signs of old age" and it is putting MAGA in a tough spot, according to a former GOP insider.

Kurt Bardella, a former staffer for Republican Senator Olympia Snowe and Republican Congressman Darrell Issa, spoke to The Guardian for an article called, "Trump attacks old foe Biden – but presidential parallels hard to avoid."

On the economy, Bardella said, "It’s hard not to see the parallels both in terms of their age and how that manifests itself and certainly the condition of the economy."...

Donald Trump, 78, on Sunday was criticized after saying at a town hall event that he is "not that close" to being 80 years old.

President Joe Biden held a campaign rally in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on Wednesday in an effort to strengthen his position with voters in the must-win battleground state's largest city. And he was quickly dismissive of a reporter's question pertaining to his age.

Biden, who is the oldest president to seek a second term, would be 86 years old by the end of his eight-year tenure should he win reelection in November. CBS reporter Ed O'Keefe tweeted that after the rally, one journalist asked the 46th president of the United States if he planned to serve all four years of a second term, or if he planned to hand off the reins of power to Vice President Kamala Harris.

"Are you okay?" Biden said, reportedly pointing to his head. "Are you alright? You're not hurt, are you?"...

WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden has had a bad week, but he’s now got a former Republican presidential candidate in his corner.

Special counsel Robert K. Hur may have cleared Biden of allegations of wilful wrongdoing in his mishandling of classified documents, but he also created quite the political stir for dubbing the president “an elderly man with a poor memory.”

Many Republican politicians and pundits alike have seized on that one clause in Hur’s 345-page report to lambast Biden, but the GOP’s own 2012 presidential nominee tells Raw Story it was a low and petty political jab. ...
