    He made the right decision to drop out and let someone younger take the mantle. Can’t say the same for Republicans.

      His campaign & Democrats lied about his cognitive decline & ran cover for him, which gave people reason to trust Republicans who had been saying it. By the time he dropped out he had already done significant damage to the party. Sure you can be thankful he dropped out, but he still helped Trump win.
