To be fair, he didn't say they ARE in decline. He said they are generally regarded to be...

Y'all misunderstand. The point is, "elders" are generally considered "deficient", but that is who is pretty much running the country, a bunch of old white males.

@MsKathleen Understood, but that's who has run it for ages. And some, like St. Reagan, were clearly in decline. That is also why Kennedy's win was supposed to be such a watershed.

I think mostly they think their vote doesn't matter.

@JonnaBononna is that a valid excuse for not doing your civic duty?

@Killtheskyfairy No, but they have not been taught "Civics."

@BirdMan1 exactly. It's no longer a required course, sadly.

@JonnaBononna I’m pretty sure there is a tiktok, Instagram or commercial on Facebook or MTV that will tell them.

I usually like Turk, when I happen to run across something of his. But, this statement is absurd...according to this old, white male.

Agreed. We need term limits or a mandatory retirement age

@JonnaBononna I'll go with mandatory retirement..the Dems also need to Drop the seniority system for committee chairmanships..
