A qualified president sounds awfully nice

If Joe Biden is too old to be president, then Donald Trump is, too. He will be 80 years old before the next term is over.
Wouldn’t it be nice to have a president that is under retirement age? If 66 is too old to be police chief, it should be too old to be president, which is a bigger job.
Wouldn’t it be nice to have a president who is actually qualified instead of the one who spends the most campaign money and makes the most promises — which he can’t keep anyway? Any other job you apply for, if you don’t have the right qualifications, you don’t get hired.
