Yeah like both Trump and Biden won in big competitive primaries with a lot of candidates younger than them. I think part of the reason we have so many old politicians is that young candidates feel more like positively asserting the future of their party, and nobody really likes the futures they’re asserting. Without that vision, the status quo wins out by default.
But Trump gives me Stephen Miller. Whereas on the other hand I don’t think Steve Miller comes with Trump attached. Nor is he capable of actually winning anything.
On the one hand I disagree & think that there are tangible differences between major parties (granted not as big as we would like).
On the other hand - Douglas Adams.
everyone who says politicians are too old need to remember how many shitty right wing 30 year olds there are.

What a weird take
I would gladly embrace shitty young ones over old ones. At least the younger ones are thinking about the future.
yeah thinking about a white future that genocides marginalised ppl
Really? You’d rather have, say, Steven Miller than Trump?
It’s not like Trump is some mastermind coming up with all these ideas on his own, and Miller isn’t likable enough to get elected.

Or, and hear me out: a non-shitty one.
no, if we don’t vote for a lizard the wrong type of lizard might get in
