My bet is that the people behind the cabal we fall Deep State aren’t spring chickens...

And Jeb Bush is continuing proof, as if it were needed, that Deep State doesn’t hire the front office appearance types for brains.

Bush is half right. He’s part of the problem. But not because he’s 70.

Well that's just it....but when you have a cushy job with mega benefits and perks that make you wealthy - bringing with it power I suspect it's not easy to let go of that. People like Pelosi, Shulmer, and many others in congress have long past their use by date.

Jeb should leave the political stage because he is a failure and fool, not because of his age.

This is just a transparent shill for his son George P. to move into the limelight. Too bad Jeb. We saw right through him here in Texas. There is no doubt they are going to try to push him onto the national stage. The “youth movement” will be their battle cry.

I might be agreeable to upper age limits for politicians, but only if we also raise the voting age significantly at the same time.

“The people who need to get off the stage are the life long pols like Bush.”

No kidding. It’s people like Biden who spend their entire adult lives in government who are the problem. To them, government is the be-all, end-all, totality of life. You “voters” are merely useful little bugs every few years to be squashed between elections. And the Dems have fixed that pesky “voter” problem good.

Low energy Yeb! continues to beclown himself.

Ages at death of these early U.S. leaders:
Benjamin Franklin = 84 years old
Thomas Jefferson = 83 years old
John Adams = 90 years old
James Madison = 85 years old
James Monroe = 73 years old
John Q. Adams = 80 years old

This was also in a time where the life expectancy was about 50 years and not having modern medicine or disease prevention or management.

HE is part of the problem-—but that status goes back to when he was 35 or 40.

AGE has NOTHING to do with it.

If Jeb! speaks in a forest and there’s no one around to hear him, does it make any difference?.......................

Why? Why shouldn’t people 70 to 100 have a voice in government? And I say that as an older millennial.

Probably because that demo is more conservative
