US military leadership: “Your career stops at 64. No ifs, ands or buts.” US civilian leadership: “Your political career doesn’t really begin before you hit 70”

[@makarabaduk1754]

Well, President is the USA's most deadly job. So people with a long life expectancy aren't going to want to do it.

[@mattbenz99]

Most Congress people were actually elected first in their 40s. They just get reelected 30 times because there is no mechanism forcing people to stop running and most seats are safe seats for 1 of the parties. So basically once someone gets elected in a safe Republican or Democratic seat, they will never need to leave.

[@Onikage55]

@@mattbenz99 Unfortunately very true, except for the ones who don't seek re-election because they actually stood up against nonsense and now aren't electable by their base. Really shows how comfortable they all are, if they have to "try" to win they're like "Nah too much work I'm retiring"

[@blablup1214]

I would say it is a problem of the system. The people like to vote for the people they know. I mean you might not like Trump or Biden but at least you know who they are. I would claim, I couldn't be worse than those two, but who would vote for an unknown nobody like me ? And getting known is super expensive and takes a lot of time.....

[@TheDragonWhimsy]

@@blablup1214 No, it's not that people like to vote for the people they know. It's that the big donors prefer to donate money to those they know they can control. The longer a person has been in office, the more "safe" and predictable they are for people who are actually in charge. The donor class. In any corrupt political system the politicians begin to age up as the system becomes more corrupt because the establishment trusts them to do their bidding more than someone completely new. The politician that sells out the most gets the big donor money, money is how you hear about someone most of the time, and so generally you will only hear about someone after they've been bought. There are exceptions to all of this of course. So a trickle of younger people do come in, but on average that's what is happening. And of course those younger people will be corrupt anyway because otherwise they'd not have gotten the donor money to win.

[@ExtremeMadnessX]

Something that is actually pretty normal in any democratic country... except USA...

[@maynardburger]

@@ExtremeMadnessX US has that as well, we just go through that process in the primaries. Plus most countries that enable multiple parties that require 'coalition governments' aren't doing anything different from the US except timing. Democrats just get the whole 'cooperation of groups' stuff out the way early on so it doesn't destroy their electoral chances(just look at the UK...). Democrats are pre-assembled coalition of parties built to stop the most regressive and dangerous political party on earth, no hyperbole. The two party system is probably the only thing keeping Republicans from taking over.

I don't mind the age if they're functional. But Biden is legit hard to watch. Feels like a grandparent in an old folks home who can fall over and break at any moment.

[@TheycallmeMrWonka]

​@@SeraphsWitnessOf course the age shouldn't rule them out but I think the main point is you have these very aged people making policies for an entire generation of people who they in many ways don't represent. It's not just the age it's the ideas. It wouldn't be so bad if you had the odd younger candidate but you have almost an entire system full of these people with clout to keep them exactly where they are.

Both Biden and Trump are barely behind each other in age and there have been accusations to both of mental degradation.

Why is Ryan George best in the industry of people talking to themselves? Every character he portrays is unique and discernible. The acting and writing is pure gold. The humour and comedy is straightforward, yet never predictable. Topics are chosen very carefully, but here and there Ryan takes a jab at some real world stuff This is a 100% work Thank you, Ryan, and Merry Christmas!
