While doddering, ineffective legislators should of course be replaced, seniority should not be ignored entirely. It takes years to master the arcane rules of the House and the Senate, and legislators who have learned all the nuances of immigration, environmental, military, or tax legislation best serve their constituents.

Yeah, he's out of order unless this is microtargeted against those who have totally checked out (like Ed Towns was). Even so, this is not what a vice-chair does. It's like being on the Student Council, not a member of the Justice League.
I must have read the wrong figures somewhere or maybe it was about comparing the number of legislators in their 70s and 80s. Misinformation is Bipartisan.

The median age of GOP legislators are much less than us and they seem to be doing just fine.
"Much less' is not much. The median age of Democratic members of the House is 57.6. The median age of Republican members of the House is 57.5.
