  I would gladly embrace shitty young ones over old ones. At least the younger ones are thinking about the future.

    Really? You’d rather have, say, Steven Miller than Trump?

      It’s not like Trump is some mastermind coming up with all these ideas on his own, and Miller isn’t likable enough to get elected.

      But Trump gives me Stephen Miller. Whereas on the other hand I don’t think Steve Miller comes with Trump attached. Nor is he capable of actually winning anything.

  What a weird take

  Yeah like both Trump and Biden won in big competitive primaries with a lot of candidates younger than them. I think part of the reason we have so many old politicians is that young candidates feel more like positively asserting the future of their party, and nobody really likes the futures they’re asserting. Without that vision, the status quo wins out by default.
