Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said on the floor the justices' refusal to recuse themselves from certain prominent cases “represents an abuse of power and threat to our democracy."
I feel like mandating a certain number of years in some managerial governmental position would be more effective. Trump is basically a living example of how to get around that. Honestly a lot of democracy kinda assumes people elect competent and honest leaders and a lot of humanity are just brainwashed morons so we’re stuck with what we got :/.
That’s not whataboutism. I’m showing the hypocrisy in one rule being justified, but not the other, so as to argue more effectively against the age rule. Whataboutism is when you change the subject.
That requirement is so ageist as the brain is fully developed at age 26
The idea is to have some experience in politics in lower positions before taking on the hot seat.
What a joke that turned out to be
Yeah just means we get experienced swindlers

That’s a great point. AOC has more experience than Trump did when elected.
I’m just upset that there’s no maximum age limit. If they are fine with a minimum why isn’t there a maximum?
You know why
So it’s okay to have a constitutionally-mandated age requirement, but not a no-treason requirement?
Whataboutism my man

It is 100% whataboutism. There is no denying it.
