Chuck Schumer is not only failing to meet the moment by not opposing the war on Iran. He has long been a hawk on Iran among Democrats and Americans who are yearning for peace.

Absolutely not. The problem here is not Schumer’s age or how long he’s been in office.
These old rich fucks are absolutely the problem.
Even if they were the most ethical people on the planet (they’re absolutely not), they still cannot relate with the average person alive today because they have been shaped by an entirely different world.
chuck schumer is a problem but mandating that we replace him with hakeem jeffries every 8 years or whatever does nothing
This. “JD” “Vance” is a spring chicken as far as age goes - he’s probably one standard deviation younger than the average, LOL.
But I’d take a Bernie Sanders who is old AF over a “JD”.
The point is, in a country of 330 million people, we have no shortage of extremely competent and qualified people to serve at the highest levels of office. Sure you might vote in someone bad, but at least this keeps the bad incumbents from sticking around forever.
Nope, sorry, absolutely not buying into this narrative.
At all.
The “term limits now!” has been around forever and I think would solve absolutely nothing. It’s a terrible idea - trying to apply a simplistic solution to systemic problems, but tends to never die. I group that in the same place as Tort reform when it comes to zombie solutions that refuse to never go away.
And I think the inter-generational warfare thing that’s being stoked (probably orchestrated) is even worse than that. The notion that people that went around the sun a certain amount of times cannot relate to the average person is one of the dumbest ideas going, in my view. It is complete nonsense.
