It's the EGO of these geriatric fucks that gets me. Biden, RBG, Feinstein, all of em.
and the entire establishment knows it but no Dem wants to go on the record and say hey, it's time for the Cryptkeeper to retire
Biden does not need to drop out of the race now. He needed to drop out a year ago.
Nobody in the caucus has the courage to speak the very plain truth. They'd rather lose 2024 than to risk the wrath of Blue MAGA and fuck their own career down the road
These laws will eventually be re-framed as "limited re-election" laws. If your first term you're within limits but your potential second isn't, then you'd be barred from even running.
México had a full on civil war cos re-election (plus lots of American involvement pre-CIA)
One re-elected term is fine. 30 years of re-election into your congressional position? Nah. Your interns will get you the good coke to wake you up in the morning at that point.
the property transfer from Boomer to GenX isn't nearly as valuable as people think, and it will be even more concentrated than it already is
As a body of candidates or as a voter block GenX will inherit little power in comparison
Yet another way GenX let themselves get fucked over by Boomers
Oh yah, the transfer of economy across generations will be minimal, most of it is already being captured by corporations (themselves with GenXers and millennials at the helm).
But the _culture_ transfer. GenXers will finally speak up and it'll be a mess.
But how many will run for and hold office compared to Millenials and GenZ, that is the question. It might already be too late for GenX to grab political power
This is true but I think the noise you see on NYT and MSNBC, etc. Them safely inching towards them wanting to replace Biden. Even Morning Joe broke up with Biden yesterday. But its still up to Biden if he wants to drop out.
