Dying off: Can congressional term limits save the American republic?

On this episode of America First, Scottie Nell Hughes examines the average and growing age of American politicians. Recent examples of politicians withering into old age while in office include Dianne Feinstein, Joe Biden, and Mitch McConnell. So, should the US enact term limits at the federal and state levels? Or would this lead to the few actually competent leaders we have being run out of office before their time? Joining the conversation are John Pudner, President of Freedom and Family Action, and Carson Carpenter, host of The Common Cause.
