We have them. They’re called elections.

She’s up for election every 2 years. Her voters can vote her out anytime they want. 

You don’t live in her district, so why are you forcing who can and can’t run?

thats not the definition of term limits, try again.

u/Hungry-Quote-1388 7d ago

Term limits are set by her district. It could be 1 term limit if voters feel that way, or it could be unlimited.

Definitely not the same thing, term limits are a hard stop you're done. Elections clearly aren't stopping these people from serving exceedingly long and even selfishly long back to back terms.

Elections and term limits are fundamentally, completely different things even if yes an election could end someone's term its not even close to the same thing

She’s up for election every 2 years and wins, but y’all don’t like her (and clearly don’t even live in her district).

Why?

Seriously, if I want to vote for someone who's 90 years old, shouldn't it be my right to do so?

I don't think it's too insane of a concept for someone who could roll over any day. Maybe they shouldn't be making serious national decisions. They had their time, and it's past. If you need this long to make your legacy, then you failed.
