Okay now they need to frame this as “I’ve heard the American people loud and clear and I’ve decided to step down to give someone younger a chance” instead of the narrative that the American people have been lied to and the democrats are finally admitting to it.
"I thought I was too old back in 2020, but that race was too important so I felt I had to step up. Well this race is even more important, and Im even older. We have younger leaders that are capable, and this country shouldnt have people in their 70s and 80s leading it. I dont care if you are 78 or 81, we need members of the next generation in here. We need Gen X, and we need millennials leading this country." Then announce that a Gen X (Harris) is taking over the campaign, and a millennial (Buttigieg) is taking over as the VP candidate. Then put Pete on every TV station for the next four months talking about how old Trump is. Bonus points if it forces Trump to pick one of the conservative millennials, who all seem to be literal neonazis, as his running mate.
