Transcript
- 0:00We got a question for American mama. Should we have a constitution amendment limiting
- 0:02the age for president or members of Congress. Well, let's ask our American
- 0:06mamas and joining us now our American mama's Terry Nutterville and Kimberly Burleson. There
- 0:23are several members of Congress now who are in their eighties. So of course
- 0:27we were President is in his eighties. Donald Trump, if he gets elected
- 0:31president, will be in his eighties before the end of that term would be
- 0:34up. We've never had so many people who are beyond the age of seventy
- 0:40years old in positions of power in this country. And well, relinquish that
- 0:44power. Let's add that too, yes, because people are very, very
- 0:50reluctant to relinquished power in no matter no matter what age. Well, great
- 0:55point. Nancy Pelosi, she's shipped down from the leadership of the House.
- 0:58She's no longer the leadership of the Demo Party. Even if the Democrats win
- 1:00back the House, she's not likely to going to be the next speaker.
- 1:04They'd likely be Hakim Jeffreys. But she is running for re election. Yea,
- 1:12and the constituents that she represents, they have not been doing well under
- 1:18her tenure, they have not done well at all. But it's terrible.
- 1:21She didn't even lived there, kind of like Barbara, I mean, what's
- 1:23her night? Waters? Waters? Yes, and let's talk about Feinstein.
- 1:29Feinstein and McConnell. Yeah, and McConnell. I mean, we were actually
- 1:33watching these people digress in front of our eyes. Well, let me say
- 1:37this. I feel like in our country we throw away our elderly and they're
- 1:42the wisest generation. So I do believe there are some sharp Our grandmother was
- 1:47the sharpest tool in the shed. Her mother was a hundred sharp. Lived
- 1:52on her own, especially Gracie. Don't you yother is our paternal I see
- 1:59just she and she'd leave on her voicemail, my voicemail, Kimberly hung for
- 2:07you. I would listen. She was so funny because I lived across the
- 2:12street from her in college. She you know, lived in a parsonage,
- 2:15and she would whenever she would look at the obituaries. If one of our
- 2:20friends passed away, she was like, gosh, clearly just died. I'm
- 2:23gonna have nobody at my funeral. I need a successful funeral. Anyway,
- 2:30she was always sharp, but that's that's a good A good point because Trump
- 2:35is sharp, sharp exactly, So I don't think there should be an age
- 2:38limit. We need term limits, Yeah, definitely, that that's what we
- 2:42need. We need limits as far as age. No, because there are
- 2:45some people that just this, We throw away our elderly and they should be
- 2:49absolutely cherished and put on a pedestal, and we should absorb every single thing
- 2:53that they can teach us. But when you start to decline, that's when
- 2:55you That's a great point because Ronald Reagan, uh he left off us at
- 3:00seventy eight years old. Yeah, had there not been a constitutional limiting terms
- 3:04for president, I think he could have been re elected in eighty eight for
- 3:08a president again in eighty nine for a third term. He was that sharp,
- 3:12and he was that powerful and that dominant at the time. But his
- 3:15mental health went down significantly in the four years after his pres between eighty eight
- 3:21and ninety two, he was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. He had a brain tumor
- 3:25that had to be removed. He went down very quickly after that, and
- 3:29that's when you need people in your corner who will step in, like Nancy
- 3:34or the Jill had she been had he been president, you would need people
- 3:38who cared about the country. They would say, Okay, we didn't see
- 3:43this coming, but he's been diagnosed with Alzheimer's, he's had a brain tumor,
- 3:46and we're gonna have to step We're gonna have to step down. It's
- 3:50gonna have to be our vice president. What you're saying here is Jill Biden
- 3:53holding up on I am so as a wife, I cannot imagine allowing my
- 4:00husband to look like this out there. He his gaffs are not. In
- 4:03fact, I laugh when they say, oh, another gaff, No,
- 4:06he is. He is so mentally incapable of this position that when he speaks,
- 4:14you you cringe. You're like, okay, just get through the sentence.
- 4:16Just get through the sentence. You know, turns around. It's impossible.
- 4:20So more than an age, it has to be somebody that's you have
- 4:25to have capability. You would have to. They have to somehow, because
- 4:28I look at the they will in Diane, is it? Yeah, they
- 4:31will her in. She didn't even know how to vote anymore. But I
- 4:34also look at people like Fetterman, who's young. He doesn't have the mental
- 4:39capacity to do anything. So they doesn't apparently have the mental capacity to put
- 4:44on a suit exactly. Oh, don't even get me started on that.
- 4:47That is unbelievable that they have dumbed down the dress code for someone like that.
- 4:54Who I don't feel like, even not properly. I've heard that too.
- 4:58I don't even know that it see on me. I mean every you
- 5:00see all this stuff online. You don't want to be conspiracy theorist. But
- 5:02you're like, whoa, he's now, like I said Kimberly a video and
- 5:06I was like, look how well he speaks now when he couldn't even string
- 5:10five words together a couple of weeks ago. Maybe the therapy is working well.
- 5:13Maybe so, But why did his why did his wife and children leave,
- 5:15flee the country and never come back? She was right beside his side
- 5:19the entire time. So there's a lot of you could go down rabbit hole.
- 5:24You like yourself. So you guys are not in favor of a costumers
- 5:28moment for age, for limiting age, but you do think we need term
- 5:30moment for Congress? Yeah, one hundred. If you like NASCAR. American
