Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said on the floor the justices' refusal to recuse themselves from certain prominent cases “represents an abuse of power and threat to our democracy."

      I was gonna say she’s too young, but apparently she’d turn 35 about a month before the election. A president who’s barely old enough… What a nice change of pace that would be.

        That requirement is so ageist as the brain is fully developed at age 26

          The idea is to have some experience in politics in lower positions before taking on the hot seat.

            I’m just upset that there’s no maximum age limit. If they are fine with a minimum why isn’t there a maximum?

            I feel like mandating a certain number of years in some managerial governmental position would be more effective. Trump is basically a living example of how to get around that. Honestly a lot of democracy kinda assumes people elect competent and honest leaders and a lot of humanity are just brainwashed morons so we’re stuck with what we got :/.

              That’s a great point. AOC has more experience than Trump did when elected.

                  It is 100% whataboutism. There is no denying it.
