With a bunch of geriatrics making the decisions for the future of the country... what could possibly go wrong.
Let's go Brandon
"Shall not comply" with morons who don't understand "shall not infringe."

Maybe this is the problem with all gerontocracies: They have all been in power for decades because their #1 goal is protecting their own power. I don't think it's the age of our leaders that is the problem - with age should come wisdom. The problem is that they reached that age by creating a system where you can't get rid of the bad ones. The party holds the purse strings and decides who wins elections. They, of course protect those who are part of the party.
It's a symptom, not a cause of our decline.
