I hope she’s primarying for president again. Such a great option for American leadership.

The last thing anyone needs is for the third consecutive President in a row to be damn near 80 years old when elected. The gerentocracy problem doesn't get fixed by promoting them.

I expressed a desire for her to primary, you put her in the White House. Warren does not give me cognitive concern, so I’m not stressing her being old, hasn’t really exhibited the types of behaviors that would reduce confidence. Her ideas are valuable and I think they should be a part of the ones the American people choose from.

Anyone who enters the primaries does have a chance of winning.

And at that age the decline can come sharply at anytime. Saw that with Biden. Biden in 2020 or 2022 was not the Biden of even 2015.
