    Hypothetical question: If we Thanos snapped every government official over 75, how many would we lose? And in this alternate America, would you think it’ll be better or worse?

      Average age of the Senate is 64 and for the House is 57.

      68 Senators are over 60. Pelosi was 83 when she quit the House.

      As of August last year, 15 Senators were over 80. 4 Senators are over 80, 1 is 90+, (D) Dianne Feinstein but she passed on Sept. 29th.

      Pelosi will seek another term in 2024 because fuck the younger generations.

        If an 80 year old has wisdom and experience, nothing is stopping them from writing a book. They can always give advice, that we should all have the right to completely disregard, rather than be bound by it.
