Scootin’ With MAGA

I’m actually against there being an age limit to serve in public office. Why? Because I’m against discrimination. Being old should not be an automatic disqualifier.

I do not have an issue with President Biden’s age. Yes, 80 is old but the reason I’m not against him serving at 80 is because I’ve heard him talk about the issues. I listened to his last State of the Union address. I watched him bait and reel Republicans in. Sure, he may stumble here and there and trip up the steps to Air Force One, but he’s human. I have more concerns about a man’s mental capabilities when he walks up the steps to Air Force One with toilet paper stuck to his shoe than I do with him tripping. It’s not a good look. Also, if a guy can walk past about 50 members of his own staff and not one of them informs him of the TP on his shoe, that means none of them like him. Why should we vote for a guy when his own staff hates him?

I don’t have an issue with Donald Trump’s age either which is 77. My biggest issue with Donald Trump is that he’s Donald Trump. I don’t like racists, narcissists, tax cheats, gropers, traitors, liars, shitweasels, thieves, fucknuts, dumbfucks, and tiny-finger fascist Oompa-Loompa wankers which are all just sprinkles on top of the rancid ice cream cone of Donald Trump’s flaws as a human being.

You can’t look at Joe Biden and Donald Trump and honestly claim that Trump is healthier. But then again, MAGAts are currently hypocritically criticizing President Biden for taking vacations after Trump spent his entire time as president (sic) at one of his properties and bilking taxpayers for it. These are the same mofos who believe without evidence that President Biden takes bribes while ignoring that Donald never did hide doing business with foreign nations while he was president (sic). Donald Trump literally tried to host an international summit at one of his resorts, stating it was researched and found to be the best in the nation for such an event. If you believe Trump Bedbug Doral is the best venue in this nation for a G-7 Summit, then you would believe Courtney Love is a better singer than Chris Cornell.

I have more concern over a politician’s health. Sure, a 90-year-old Diane Feinstein should probably retire but more because of her health at this point. If you’re going to howl about her age, then howl about 89-year-old Chuck Grassley (in case you’re a Republican, 89 is just one year younger than 90). And if 81-year-old Mitch McConnell has frozen twice during a press conference, how often is he doing this in private? Meanwhile, 81-year-old Bernie Sanders had a heart attack in 2019 while running for president.

For that matter, I have concerns about John Fetterman’s health, and he’s only 54. Should there be a physical to qualify for public office? Why not? Sports teams make athletes take physicals before signing them. We should probably conduct mental exams for people who want to overturn rights and make racial discrimination legal.

There are minimum ages to serve in Congress. It’s 30 for the Senate and 25 for the House, which means the framers of the Constitution took the Senate much more seriously. But even with the age limits, you still have lunatics and morons in the Senate like Tommy Tuberville who can’t name the three branches of government. There are currently about 48 senators who wouldn’t impeach a president who tried to overthrow the government, including the Minority Leader, who’s also the one who’s been freezing up lately. Shouldn’t that be on a test before being eligible to run for the United States Senate? Is trying to overthrow the government wrong? Ron DeSantis was recently asked a similar question by a 15-year-old and he couldn’t give an answer. That should be disqualifying.

An age limit also won’t stop people from being elected to Congress like Marjorie Taylor Greene, Matt Gaetz, Jim Gym Jordan, George Santos, and the dumbest of the dumb, Lauren Boebert.

Should there be an age limit? No. Physical? Maybe. Mental exam? Oh absolutely for the love of God fuck yes.

Music note: Despite my criticism of Courtney Love’s singing voice, I listened to the album “Live Through This” by Hole.
