I understand all the bitching at Mitch, but maybe we are looking at this in the wrong light. Could he be trying to focus on raising the smoking age to 21, in order to counter the dems thoughts on lowering the voting age to 16. The more “adult” things that are tied to the 21 age mark, wouldn’t that make it harder to lower the age to vote? Just my 2 cents, and probably way off base. Just throwing it out there.
In regard to your comment on 16 years old to vote vs 21 to smoke, that’s a very good point! And I think entirely probable.
I see your point. Although Mitch isn’t everything we’d like in a majority leader, I would never dismiss him as a Never Trump traitor.
Actually, I think the voting age should be raised to 35, except for honorably discharged veterans.
