Democratic members of Congress know they have an age problem—and it’s hurting them.

Yeah, but Clinton took office 30+ years ago. Bush took office 25+ years ago.
I get that they’re old today, but that would be like 20 years from now saying Obama is too old to be president. Which 20 years from now WOULD be true, except that his term was 2009-2017.
Biden and trump? Yeah, I fully get why they’re too old.
Yes there’s nothing particularly odd about the first couple of names in this timeline. The point is what comes after them.
And is a little over a month YOUNGER than the dementia riddled fascist currently infesting the office.
Nobody here thinks the dementia riddled fascist should have been president at any age.
And nobody thinks Clinton should be president at this age.
When old guys get that “Mouth Open, Catching Flies Resting Face,” it’s time to stop working, and start fishing.
