Yeah. Ironically, Trump represents the youth movement. It amazes me that the Democrats found not one, but two people older than Trump to be their two remaining possible candidates.
Appalling, but not terribly surprising, that white-haired old guys become candidates. While different, very qualified candidates were essentially ignored.
Well, it's a bit surprising for the Democratic Party, at least if you listen to what they say about "different" people. But maybe it's easier to talk that way than to actually back such candidates.
Now, in fairness, the Democratic Party has produced female candidates, and candidates of different races (for other offices), and elected them. And they produced Hillary as a candidate in 2016. And they produced Obama as a winning candidate in 2008. So they have "walked their talk".
For this election, though, old white men. And emphasize the old. Bill Clinton and JFK showed the power a younger candidate could unleash. But not this time. It just feels like, these guys might have been interesting two decades ago, but today? C'mon.
I've thought for a while that there should be an age limit for the President and also the top positions of the house and Senate. Anecdotally lot of people seem opposed to that. However I read that Jimmy Carter believes the same.
What pisses me off is the Democratic party pushing the line that not being 100% behind Clinton meant you were a misogynist. And then 4 years later they throw Harris and Warren under to the bus to support Biden. Not nice.
