The wörd: Gerontocracy.

Perhaps when the constitution was ratified, life was nasty, brutish and short?

I don’t think the Rethuglicans that objected to her really cared. If it worked, so be it but anyone taking on Grassley is a long shot

Time is taking on Grassley and he’s going to die sooner rather than later.

Grassley reelected, Grassley resigns, Reynolds appoints a successor, who gains at least some of the benefits of incumbency when next up. It’s not a complicated plan.

True but then his grandson or another whackadoodle will step up. Iowa isn’t electing Dems right now, witness our other senator and governor.

Didn’t say a Democrat would get his seat, just that Grassley is more likely than not to not be with us much longer. hahaha

Well, we did have 3 out of 4 Congressional districts as recently as 2018, but I agree that the climate here is not particularly good.

I’d start spreading the word that if Grassley goes 6 feet under do they want Kim Reynolds choosing the replacement?
Here the Republicans can fight over if Kim is Trumpy or not Trumpy enough.

Every time one of these idiots says crap like that TN official’s ‘We’re still fighting the civil war’, I’m inclined to say ‘great, you can win this time. GTFO of the Union. Hell, let’s have a popular referendum! Any state where the rest of the US can muster more votes to kick it than that state’s got population gets the boot’
