This is a spectacular Twitter thread. Spectacular in that watching these live clips, it is truly sobering to realize that this 29-year old child is an elected official placed in a position of leadership of this country.

Most of us favor Term Limits. But Term Limits are not enough.

Two more things are needed:

  1. All elected officials should be at least 35 years old. And,

  2. all elected offices should either be part time or should pay a salary and, as applicable, living/travel expenses commensurate with the significance of the position.
To have a competent and representative government you not only need people who know that they will go home under the laws/regulations they promulgate, you need people who have already had to make his/her way in the (nongovernmental) world and who are worthy of the position, and are making a career sacrifice to serve.
