Am I the only one who finds it funny....

...that the new press secretary is named Spicer? With Trump being the first president to enter office as a septuagenarian, before his term is over he might need somebody to feed and burp him and keep his wheelchair clean and maintained.
You must be a youngster. I'm same age group as Trump and I perform all those functions independently and look to be able to do so well into my 90s (except I don't require a wheelchair yet).
Agreed that age is relative to a great degree. The actor who convincingly portrayed the man Spicer was taking care of was only about 65 when "Five Easy Pieces " was filmed.

But here's a shocker I discovered while investigating this. The actor who portrayed Spicer bore a striking resemblance in later years to Vice President Pence.
If you think that to be strange, check the ages of the U.S. Senate. The rough stats are these....7 are over 80. 4 more are 75-80. 13 are 70-75. Another 18 are 65-70.

Our leaders are 42% over the accepted retirement age. My biggest complaint with what was offered us in the last election is that they were both SS eligible. Really, that's the best we got? Don't get me started on the Supreme Court.

Term limits and a retirement age are needed for all offices AND for the Supremes. How's this for a start.....no term can start after age 70. Then we can deal with pension and health care for our employees too.

I have many friends in there 70, 80 and a few in the 90's they are fully capable of feeding and wiping themselves . So I guess you are the only one who finds it funny.
Feeding and wiping themselves at an advanced age is admirable.....but not qualifications for leading a country. Try finding a job in the private sector when you are over 65. The idiots who gave you a 65 year old retirement age exempted themselves from it (again!).
Trying to find the humor but unfortunately I don't see it.
