    Americans love their 80 year old politicians. The upper levels of government are basically a retirement home, it’s wild.

      Imagine not wanting to retire when you clearly have a shit tonne of money and could live a very comfortable and happy retirement. He probably could have retired like 40 years ago too. I don’t get it.

          Yeah that is the only explanation but it’s just an obsession at that point… Keeping power to the literal death sounds like mental illness to me.
