This is spot on.
Just as we saw with Boomers in the UK, who happily threw their country off an economic cliff with Brexit, America's Boomers are equally feckless and unrelenting.
People over the age of 70 should lose the right to vote and just focus on being old and retired. It's absurd to have people constantly voting to chop down the tree whose shade they will never live to enjoy.
To be fair, Borris was the first American born British PM. So, you could still blame us.
