Plenty of 12 year old morons, and 90 year old razor sharp professors, as counter examples.

Either way, those same old folks are the ones who’d need to sign off on the rules banning their existence and I don’t see them doing that.

So who are the idiots exactly?

Personally, I think it’s the folks who think more rules will make a difference against someone who is explicitly great at violating rules and getting away with it. While pretending to be a moron.



Ah alright, let's not do anything about anything ever then. Criminals still do crimes, so obviously laws are useless am I right ?


My point is actually enforce the god damn rules instead of making more bullshit rules that only get enforced against people without power.


Mother Nature has made this particular rule, and you can only fool her for so long. 80+ year old people do not belong in positions of power, any more than 8-year-olds do. They should step aside and let the next generation take responsibility for their own future.

(Or rather make them take responsibility, in the case of voters who insist on electing Trumps, Reagans, Bidens, and Feinsteins simply because those are the candidates they've heard about, due to their having been around the longest.)


As I said in another comment - good luck!

If no one can unseat the king, they’re still the king.

And after all, if they really are as dumb and incompetent as you say that should be easy eh?

Well, in theory, we weren't supposed to have kings here, but it appears that the voters are going to insist on one.

That's my usual response to Trumpers complaining about Democrats in my own state's legislature. I have to say, though, that it doesn't work any better for me than it will for you.
