    “only 60” - the depressing state of politics. There’s a good amount of places where you’d retire before completing a single term at that age.

      Agreed. I’m rather tired of the nation being run by workaholics. I want to retire someday. I want a candidate who shares that value, and builds a nation where I can do that.

      Ideally, I think the oldest a candidate should be is 57 at the beginning of their first term, so that they retire from professional politics by 65.

      That being said, no candidate is ever going to be perfect, and, he’s still 24 years better than the current option.

        Good thing China has a number of honey trap spies. I’m sure Schiff will be eager to tell them all the dirty, dirty secrets of a US President

      And the reality is modern medical science has made 60 the new 50.

      Which kinda works. because modern education has made 20 the new 14.
