Honestly though, "get on board or STFU" is not a particularly compelling pro-democracy bumper sticker, nor is "meh, what are you going to do?"

All we want is for someone to keep it 💯 - the percentage, not the age.

Fun fact: back in the olden times of the 1900's, it was common in the US to elect presidents who were under the age of 70. Or at least that's what I've read in history books.

Your username makes me think: I wonder when we'll get the choice between a cyborg (where the machines are keeping the person alive) vs. a literally dead person (head in a jar? abstract representation of an administration without a lead person in it?).

Geriatric vs. felon may seem tame in the years to come!?

It'll be a while, since the parts would need to be made in the US if they're going to be president.

Yeah, and we practically don't make anything anymore. Except we're starting to, now that it's a matter of national security!
