I should think that the man would want to retire and enjoy the fruits of his labors, especially at his advanced age. What is it about being in D.C. that keeps people hanging on to a job that can’t be much fun. He’s got his lifetime pension. He should go travel the world or something.
My thoughts exactly. he’s way past normal retirement age, his wife owns a very large Budweiser distributorship, and from what I’ve read, he retires at 100% Senate salary-does he also get military retirement? Why is he hanging on?
Why hang on in DC?
Power.
It is more addictive than any drug.
