minus-squareMegaUltraChicken@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up9·7 个月前I think you’re on to something. We can probably solve most of the problems Biden has in the public discourse by giving him some cocaine.
minus-squaresleen@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up12arrow-down1·7 个月前Correct, it’s about competency. Age is not indicative of one’s competency, just a mere suggestion - no matter if the person is young or old.
minus-squareCaptainSpaceman@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·7 个月前Yeah, its a dumb barrier in 2024. Lots of 20somethings would be better than biden or trump. Ultimately, the DNC and RNC exist to stifle options, so until the 2 party system has a replacement theres little hope for real change anyways.

minus-squareMnemnosyne@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·7 个月前Personally I’d be in favor of making it an age maximum. Let’s have a Logan’s Run rule for government. And I say this with complete seriousness, and as someone who is already ineligible under the rule I propose.
