“There is an element of, at some point, you age out,” the former president said.
Former President Barack Obama is urging the Democratic Party to invest in younger candidates if it wants to come out victorious in the 2026 midterm elections and, eventually, the 2028 presidential election.
In an interview with YouTuber Brian Tyler Cohen that was published Saturday, the 64-year-old said part of the reason his own elections were so successful was because he was young at the time.
“I’m a pretty healthy 64, feel great, but the truth is, half of the references that my daughters make about social media, TikTok and such, I don’t know who they’re talking about,” he said. “There is an element of, at some point, you age out. You’re not connected directly to the immediate struggles that folks are going through.”
The commonality is corruption by our oligarchs throwing money into politics to control most of our politicians.
There’s still a difference between the parties, but it’s our oligarchs that have corrupted and broken our democracy, and it won’t get better until we start with them.
I didn’t say there was no difference.
I said on the one topic of Epstein- neither party has done anything meaningful.
There’s still differences. Like one party has better hygiene.
