    Wait. You’re telling me that people in their late 70s early 80s don’t make for great presidents??

    No way. 😐

          Bernie Sanders on his deathbed still makes a better president than whatever-the-fuck we got now. (As long as he doesn’t get a “Fetterman” stroke, even then, the Progressive, hopefully younger, VP can take over)

            Joe Biden stepped down knowing he wouldn’t be able to service as president due to his health and age.

            Bernie Sanders on his deathbed most definitely would not make a better president than Trump because he’d be dying.

            What kind of ridiculous logic is that?

            I’m glad you don’t like Trump I don’t like Trump either but replacing him with another old white guy isn’t the solution.

          It does though. And increasingly this will change with time such that human ages skew older, so I will remain flexible on that number when it comes to who I think is capable of holding various offices.

        Some fare better than others. But anyone in the 70s to 80s is at such a higher risk of some event that takes them out of commission than usual and we have over 60 million people to look at, surely we don’t have to settle for people that have a risk of disrupting the office.
