Another 80 year old who should have been enjoying retirement.
When will this country stop electing the elderly.
Is that the loon with the blue hair?

Behind a pay/registration wall, but there are pics and I got a look long enough at the text to see something along the lines of Kaptur’s office refusing to say which of the two vehicles Kaptur was a passenger in.
At 80+ years old, I wish for a healthy and happy retirement with her family.

That used to be only a Third-World thing. Has anyone heard from Mitch McConnell or Nancy Pelosi recently? Joe Biden?
I was going to ask the same question. LOL. Probably Unitarian.

What about the person she hit?
I love and respect the elders. There just comes a time when 80-90 year-olds need to step into retirement. Especially Judges, Senators, and House Representatives.
Why do all these people want to die in office???
I acknowledge that President Trump is now 80. I want him to finish his term and peacefully retire.
I'm looking forward to President Vance. Or any Conservative that does not mean dynastic rule. Heh.
I worked in a nursing home for about 6 months in 2014. Going to Capitol Hill would seem very familiar these days.
Having that perceived power, influence and an army of sycophants plus a sycophantic media if youโre a Democrat on top of that must be a stronger drug than crack.
The percent that leave voluntarily is unbelievably small.
