We should be ready for a cascading # of well-known politicians dying in the coming years because these people are incredibly old.

Many of them refused to let younger generations lead this nation before they die when they just should have retired instead.

I'm pretty ready for that already... :) [Okay, I don't want a bunch of Dem leaders dying--I'd prefer that they retire instead, because they've been at least moderately effective in the past. But we need more people who can represent us in THIS space/time, like AOC, Jasmine, Bernie, Al Green, etc.]

Al Green has been gerrymandered out of his district by Gov Dr Evil, by the way. I can't help but think that was completely intentional, well beyond making it easier for Republiscum to win.

that's true--I included him because he went out and hit the road, and has been tirelessly vocal about Trump et al. He's devoted a lot more energy to it than some prominent Dem leaders. (Officially he's not a Dem, of course, which is fine--loyalty for its own sake is largely useless against tyranny.)

And should be dead, that is just based on their actions and frankly, wanting us dead. If you look at their actions and their inaction in that light. Yeah. They want us all dead. It doesn’t make sense.
