Right on. I take Occam's Razor to the question - who cares how old (or young, for that matter) a chief executive is? For me the deciding issue is job performance. That includes superior ideation, clear communication, and collaboration with an excellent team, imho. That especially includes his choice of a number two. I wouldn't be at all disappointed (apart from the prerequisite loss of a great leader) to see Kamila at the helm. Nor Pelosi back in the day or Jeffries when the new day dawns.

By comparison in terms of style and performance TFG was a big nothing burger (with fries on the side and ketchup on the wall), and Pence wouldn't have been any better, just more ethical. And if both of them were incapacitated, Kevin? Mikey? No way no how.

Well-put Lauren. And I do think Kamala or Nancy (or Hillary) would be excellent in the role -Kamala would likely leave the leadership team in place (and hopefully she will get the opportunity in 2028). People have lost an understanding that as voters, we're conducting a job interview. The reality show host/business failure/rapist/Putin colluding/imbecile not only failed the interview (in 2016), they were fired in 2020 (and security had to remove him from the building). We would mark that personnel record "Do Not Rehire".
