    This is the kind of meaningful change our current governmental system can muster… Fucking pathetic.

      He’s 80 fucking years old…

      He probably thinks this is super important and that is undoubtedly the real problem.

      We need to face the harsh truth that a lot of politicians are suffering from the same age related mental decline, as literally every single peraon who manages to live past 60.

      It’s not like a switch gets flipped, but 20 years of it is significant.

      If we don’t have real age limits based on science, people will still in office till they die. Because the life of a Senator/House Rep is very comfortable. It’s literally no harder than living in a retirement home. If you don’t care because of lack of empathy or just lack of comprehension, there’s zero mental/emotional stress. And they rarely even have to show up to an office. So no physical stress.

      Obviously their bodies will cling on long past their minds being gone.
