I’m sorry the topic confuses you but yes, this is why your 14 year old can’t have a driver’s license even if they might be a perfectly good driver.

Risk of them becoming unable to execute the duties of the office is a main factor. It’s ok to discriminate against adults for the qualities of a high risk of developing age-related degenerative disorders over the course of their tenure.
This isn’t that hard to understand. Your line of reasoning is pointless.
A bunch of people are living in the delusional reality of an old person and it’s pushing us close to civil war for no good reason beyond boomer mass dementia. You have failed to understand the present crisis, so you fail to comprehend the necessity for this simple preventative measure.
No more people over 65 in federal politics. Ever.

Age isn’t the only risk factor I care about, it’s just the only age factor I care about discussing with you.
Age limits are de facto term limits. If you want to make it 60 I’m willing to hear it.

This isn’t about their values at all. You keep on mindlessly returning to your algorithm for evaluating candidates assuming that people can make a decision as to whether or not an old person is healthy. But we are living in the aftermath of people failing to make that decision.
If you don’t believe this, you’ve failed a basic political awareness test. If you don’t believe that Trump was unhealthy for this country and that a vote for him is a vote against our civilization, you’ve failed a basic political intelligence test.
Your model of how well people make these decisions is flawed, wrong, and irrelevant.
This is wrong. Health and age are deeply connected. If you can’t accept that, you’re failing a basic biological intelligence test.
Hint: There’s nothing about a 28 year old that would make them unfit to be President. But our society has made the decision to set an arbitrary line at 35. There is no reason not to set a corresponding arbitrary line at 65.
