The main thing I've noticed is that Republicans have a much deeper bench than Dems. Too many younger Dems give up on leadership tracks because the old guard just won't step aside. Fucking sad.
Yep agreed. That is one of the many problems of the Democrat party, and is ultimately how Biden finally became president. If you look at the average age of democratic congressman and senators, they are 2-3 years older then their republican counter parts. It's a problem.

It's also a huge problem with all of us post boomer generations that we got so disillusioned that we don't participate in politics
