00:31I think there was definitely an issue with how old he was.

00:35After the debate, it just seemed like that was going to be a possibility.

00:40I actually wasn't shocked. I thought it was coming.

00:43And I just hope the Democratic Party has a plan.

00:46Yeah, I think we should be having somebody younger run in the country.

00:50Yeah, I'm appreciative for what he did as a president, showing up for the people.

00:56But yeah, I think it was time for him to move on.

00:58It just seemed like it was going to happen from all the things that have been happening the past week or two.

01:04From what everybody's been saying, all the donors and the big people in Hollywood talking,

01:10even just like word of mouth, going to and fro.

01:14It seemed like it was inevitable that he was going to pull out.

01:18And if he didn't pull out, then it would be a big mistake.

01:20I think he did it because he knows it's about that time.

01:23Maybe it's time to focus on his health and take care of him.

01:26Being a president requires a lot, and maybe he just knows it's time.

01:31I'm not very happy about it, but then again, neither one of them, to be honest, are any better than the other.

01:38I mean, I wish we had somebody that we really could vote for and really could be about the people.

01:42I was surprised, but I'm glad he did the right thing because he has done a great job for the last four years.

01:50But we think a better representative would be better to have a better chance against Donald Trump.

01:57Well, I'm not that shocked.

01:59I mean, with his dementia, I knew that his Democrats were going to push him out.

02:04But I don't think Kamala has a chance to beat Trump.

02:08Well, in a lot of ways, I think it's a good thing because I don't think he's competent.

02:16And I think he's shown that.

02:18What I don't like about it is who's going to supersede him.

02:21Kamala Harris? Not a fan. Not a fan.

02:38I'm not a fan.
