Donald Trump says “only stupid people put old” in Supreme Court positions - seemingly forgetting he’s a 78-year-old man running for the top position in the executive branch.
I follow the logic, but I would also argue if the chances are always higher of a sitting President to win the following term, the GOP would have been better off running anyone who had not already held office and can maintain control for a possible 8 years and not just 4? So he would be saying Republicans should have voted for Nicky Haley in the primaries.
Edit: Nah - I guess that is a bit different, because they could argue idiots already liked him, so he stood a better chance at getting back in and they didn’t believe she could I guess
