    Of course the MAGAts are calling for him to resign, they’re nearly as mad at him as the Democrats! I’m not sure what it’s going to take for voters to wake up and stop re-electing these geriatric politicians but it needs to happen. We can’t move forward as a nation with all of these oldsters clinging to power and applying yesterdays thoughts and solutions to today’s problems.

      I think it’s clear that people can be disconnected from reality no matter how old they are, and that older people are not excluded from being insightful and valuable to the political process (think Bernie Sanders and Robert Reich).

      It’s easy to feel like elminating older people from politics is a solution, but it’s not. Voting for good people who actually represent your interests and the interests of your community is a better solution, but that’s harder to think about.
