Do people really expect that there comes something meaningfully out of such a old brain under that kind of pressure? Have you never talked to such old people? They need way more time to think compared to young people. Americans should stop voting such old people into politics, it is just not efficient. But of course, we have the same problem here..

She's one of the most well known leaders in the united states...

former leader. She's grandma with a seat in Congress now, but the press won't move on, especially if she's saying Trump level shit like this.

Thats basically every 'leader' of the USA.

That does appear to be the problem. The US might not officially be a gerontocracy, but it sure does a damn good job looking like it these days.

Yea but she is still old and unter heavy pressure, I even would not be surprised if she’d have peed in her pants out of fear. Guess what, US leaders are as well just humans after all.
