oh shit, I thought he was going for the 3rd term aka king. Snicker
-
I'm a no
Voters need to grow up and take responsibility for their actions
-
Sure, but wouldn’t this require a bunch of people to vote themselves out of a job?
-
I would add that any career government employees be limited to a max of 20 years, no exceptions!
I call it the fauci rule
-
Entrenched politicians should never have been allowed to determine their longevity..of course they won't vote to oust themselves. It's why we are in this mess
-
Give the House members 10 years IMO. Somebody needs to know what’s going on there.
-
The Constitution provides the requirements for office. This isn't a short attention span theatre project. Either amend it or drop this nonsense.
-
Would rather just have a law that says Congress needs to adhere to the same laws as the rest of us.
No fucking exemptions. Especially on insider trading.
-
100% agreed the insider trading has to stop.
-
Party dues and special interest lobbying has to end.
Sharyl Atkinson did several investigations on Full measure
..the corruption and wasted taxpayer time is astounding!
Here's one of the episodes...
-
Fuck yes to term limits. 90% of elected officials are there to ride the gravy train. No more McConnell's and Pelosi's.
Every other level of government survives just fine with term limits in place.
-
Start at the far end and negotiate to the middle where you want to end up.
-
Probably for term limits. But if we can’t get there, a suggestion is to change the campaign finance laws that allows these long sitting Congress people to build ridiculous war chests and carry forward that money election to election. Make them start over each election, which would make it theoretically easier to primary them out.
-
Money means less than ever. The monopoly of TV ad buys is dead
Harris dropped a billion and a half and lost rather easily
The edge the incumbent has now is that the voters are hyper focused on president not the elections that really matter
People hate the other guy's congressman and reelect their own.
-
Incumbents have always been re-elected at a rate of something like 95%. It's name recognition. Once you're in you no longer have to work.
-
House 12 Years, Senate 18 years.
-
More than fair.
Let's cut it to 8 and 16 and call it good.
-
Scoop Jackson served 30
Maggie served 37
Washington voters profited from both
Although I met Maggie at a McGovern reception in 72 and he was basically Mitch McConnell
Lost in 80 to Skeletor

Mark me down for this. Long enough to have experience in both chambers, but not generational political grift.
edit: Add a combined limit of 22 years. You can do 2 terms in Congress then ride your 3 term Senate gig max. Otherwise they will all do 5-6 terms in Congress and then the transition to still get a 3 decade grift going. Do some time up there, try to actually help the country, then return to your farm like the Founders intended. Pelosi has been there since 1987 on her personal enrichment tour. McConnell since 1985. 4 decades of grift. End it.

Bernie Sanders is 84 years old and has been in Congress since 1991. This guy is the same as all the other geriatrics in Congress
I don’t care who you and how many brain foods you eat, everybody loses something off their fastball with age.Rather than term limits looking at a mandatory retirement age for Congress people. 69 seems about right to me.

Really, Bernie would have the same answers when he was 40. When you are indoctrinated and not educated and you have zero intellectual curiosity that's what you get. What is the functional difference between Bernie, a long-term US Senator, fumbling for answers and a policy discussion with any of the Tug leftards? At least Bernie showed up on Rogan. Dem solution is not to have intelligent prepared politicians able to answer basic questions is to have a dem Joe Rogan. Like Joe Rogan back when he was a Bernie Bros. Amazing what having some intellectual curiosity and introspection will accomplish.
-
Many people turn socialist during bad economic times. Bernie and Fauxcohantas say the right things and target Wall Street. It's easy to hate the rich when unemployment is 11 percent and you've been laid off. Now that things are more prosperous and stable, they look like the opportunist politicians they are who get rich while in office.

I agree that the economy is important. But blue cities have a large percentage of their residents on food stamps. NYC its one if five residents. Then you have all the liberal art degree graduates with no real job skills working in government jobs, dem NGO jobs or private sector DEI jobs. Then you have the guilty Jews and other liberals who are guilty for god knows what reason for working in a meritocracy. Finally, all the corrupt crony capitalist like an investment banker working for Goldman Sachs in their muni bond department lending money or a "renewable energy" employee. Way too much grifting going on for free shit and little return on investment.
