Idk what I'm supposed to do with the advice of dozens of mental health experts. Anyone with the ego to run for President of the United States is arguably mentally unstable to begin with. Trump's always been a degenerate little freak. And now he's a senile degenerate freak.
But he's hardly the first President in US history to suffer from Old Person Brain and get shepherded around by a gaggle of scheming viziers while the country crumbles around them. What is anyone going to do about it? The Senate is packed with people exactly as senile and corrupt and petty as Trump. And nothing in the next election cycle seems like it will change that.
Hell, Democrats were working kinda-sorta hard to put an 80-year-old woman into Susan Collin's Senate seat barely more than a week ago. In NC, they're running Roy Cooper at 68 years young. Meanwhile, 73 year old Sherrod Brown is looking to reclaim his Ohio seat for another six years. These are the Fresh New Faces we're supposed to rally behind to defeat the Trump Gerontocracy?
Agreed. We've had multiple wake-up calls that we don't have any guardrails against an unstable President, and we've done nothing about it. I mean technically we have guardrails. But the reality is our elected officials are a bunch of feckless cowards who value being in power more than they value wielding it responsibly. And since impeaching a President is tantamount to a nuclear bomb enema, politically speaking, no one is willing.
We are electing the fundamentally wrong sorts of people. It's not just age.
Status quo right? Fuck old pricks I'm 51 and hate a majority of my peers
62 here. Ditto.
You're right.
New age campaign slogans for the next generation of government.
For some reason I pictured the skinny white kid from Idiocracy saying that. The Secretary of Energy.
If Pete Buttigieg thought he could talk like this an become President, he'd do it in a New York Minute. If Ted Cruz thought he could win like this, he'd do it in a split second. If Bernie Sanders thought this would guarantee a win, he'd probably give it a shot. What does it prove, though?
What you've illustrated is the superficial nature of retail democratic campaigning. Is Dillon Breeze a good bureaucrat? A savvy diplomat? A patriot more interested in the interest of his fellows than himself? Fuck if I know. I just know he doesn't talk like a Boomer, so he's not going to win the GenX+ vote.
My guy could be the next FDR or the next Donald Trump. I have no useful information from your word salad. There's nothing in this to actually make a political decision on, and yet I'm expected to... not like this guy, because he uses GenZ slang words, and that's just about it.
Okay boomer.
No mention of 'W' or 'rizz'? Let alone aura farming or mogging. You're reaching teens in the early 2000s lol
Yeah, because our constitution explicitly states one must be 35 to be president of the US. Therefore someone growing up in that era would probably be using that slang and not zoomer slang. I don't know though, I am terrible at slang and that was hard enough to make up as it were.
Yeah we want a millennial, ideally a youngish one
