Suffering Evils while Evils are Sufferable...
I wonder what the Cabinet Meetings are like. Instead of the Secretaries stating their opinions, their first goal is to not disagree or offend Trump. He doesn't give a shit about them, nor MAGAs in Congress, nor the MAGA populace, unless they display 100% fealty to him.

BTW my own Rep who is pretty new, in her second term, was I think roughly Jack's age when she first ran, give or take a year or so.

I am not a staunch defender of "25", so if there be a push to change it, so be it. I will say though that once one survived infancy and childhood, life expectancy was quite a bit better than that. Agreed though, it was not as high as now. Current youngest: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell...

I dunno, perhaps it was vague, or an oversimplification on my part. I just meant that to me, his mother seems to have integrity. I am sure Jack will have opponents that are equally or more qualified than him as one might see it.

Fair enough. U.S. House is an important office obviously, but many people do indeed enter politics there. That said, there are lower level offices to gain experience though. I think JFK was in his late 20s when he entered the House, but as you said, different worlds in different times. We'll see.

Fair enough. Support him, oppose him, or be neutral. God Bless America.
