A Time-tested Political Weapon: The Age Diss

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

58% : Just a few weeks ago, Trump and Biden were the oldest presidential candidates in history.
40% : There's only a three-year age gap between them, but that didn't stop Trump from effectively presenting himself as the more energetic and youthful candidate -- drumming up doubts about Biden's fitness for office.
33% : Trump, Walz says, is hopelessly "low energy," "tired" and "needs to get a little rest on the weekends.
23% : At her rallies, Harris uses subtle age shade, telling crowds that Trump would "return America to a dark past" and called his comments on her race the "same old show."
7% : In a viral leaked clip of Trump at Mar-A-Lago after the presidential debate in June, he took things further, calling Biden a "broken down pile of crap."Now, with Vice President Kamala Harris, 59, at the top of the Democratic ticket, the 78-year-old Trump has gone from being the attacker on age to the attackee.
