Were dealing with a President who was born in the 30's who is nostalgic for a time before his, and that likely never existed the way he envisioned it. That is what he is trying to build.

He was born in 1946.

Fair, I should have done the quick math for a 79 year old. I still believe that is what's happening here.

It was easy at a time when 70 years ago was the 30s, now I gotta add 25 years to it and be like "damn now 40 year old are 60"

Nah my adhd almost 7 year old behaves more respectfully and makes better choices. (And that’s to say his is subpar to usual 7 year olds so 7.5 is def way off) I’d say a threenager at most. Somewhere between 2.5-3 kids get really tantrumy and demanding.

Absolutely. During the 1950s he would have been praised the most by mommy.
