Delusional Democrats think Fetterman and Feinstein still fit to serve

Once upon a time we mocked the Soviet Union for its gerontocracy. Aged party leaders, bundled up in overcoats and fur hats to the point of near-unrecognizability, would be wheeled out to sit, immobile, as parades passed or party congresses opened. Their withered, stale leadership was emblematic of the decaying USSR’s withered, stale ideology — and industrial base.

But now the joke’s on us. A leading United States senator, Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), can’t seem to remember important things, like her just-taken vote on a judicial nominee and her just-announced retirement. “Did I vote for that?” she asked an aide Wednesday, moments after leaving the chamber.

The day before, the oldest sitting senator announced she wouldn’t seek another term — or her staff did, anyway. Asked about her coming retirement an hour after the statement posted, Feinstein said, “Well, I haven’t made that decision. I haven’t released anything.” A staffer told her she had. As The Post reported, “an incredulous-sounding Feinstein” said, “You put out the statement?” before telling reporters, “I didn’t know they put it out.”

Well, Feinstein is 89. She shouldn’t be expected to remember things too well at that age. But maybe she shouldn’t be expected to serve two more years in the Senate, either.

***our predictions of Clintonites going to jail NEVER HAPPENED. . . . She really rubbed it in - and she was right***

True, but her scope of understanding has all the depth of a freon spill. First we proved that U.S. citizens could take to the streets - peacefully - and stand up to powerful corrupt politicians - despite the media. Second we demonstrated that Republicans in the Senate were not terribly reliable - we exposed the Deep State. Third, we energized a citizen revival that led to the Tea Party, an alternate media and populism that energized a candidate like Donald Trump.

AND, BC WAS impeached!

On the third point (and the first where they overlap), it has become the focus of the autocratic Left and 'Rat Party; they work tirelessly to suppress that political force. The lines are being drawn, much differently than when Bill Clintooon became president.

They got Biden in office proof their logic lobe is missing.

[dirtymac]

for democrats, they are fit to serve. Look at all of the dead people that voted for them.

Sounds like there is some ageism going on here.

There’s a species of cruelty in putting people in jobs they’re mentally unable to handle, but there’s a worse species of cruelty in subjecting an entire nation to being governed by such people — or by whoever is pulling their strings from behind the scenes. Enough.
