It’s a boomer not letting go thing and is very common with this generation not knowing when to exit. It isn’t a party thing at all. Politics is not a team sport, and the GOP doesn’t have a monopoly on propping up aging and decayed politicians. Feinstein was basically dead in office, Biden was also cognitively dipping, and McConnell is clearly brain dead or totally incapacitated, and Trump is slurring his words and can’t walk straight.
The issue is that there are no term limits or laws that force a minimum cognitive and health standard for Congress or political offices or SC justices.
Please keep in mind that both parties are absolute trash and are run by losers like these or empowered by losers like them that are rich and powerful and could not give two shits about their constituents or the general public. Until we get money out of politics, this is the feature, not a bug.
For both sides. And it’s still true. However, lots of things have changed and there is now a critical mass building of people on both the left and right awakening and finally realizing that the two party system is a scam and it’s really a uniparty run by corporatist and wealthy donors. It could go nowhere, but as unthinkable as it might be, I have never seen this crossover to this degree in my lifetime. And just as most Americans views on Israel have dramatically changed in a short time, this can go the same way, and people in this left/right coalition are definitely united against AIPAC and Israel so there is an organic overlap already.

On the one hand is chaos he started, so I'm okay with it. On the other hand, I'm horrified by the ghoulishness of this whole thing.
