Age has become an issue for the 2024 election -- not just for presidential candidates, but also in Congress. Sen. Mitt Romney, 76, announced he will not be seeking re-election in 2024. He strongly urged President Biden and former President Trump also to step aside . Susan Glasser’s latest article for the New Yorker is called "The Twilight of Mitch McConnell and the Spectre of 2024."
