because everyone just votes for whoever is in their party.
So don't let the person people vote for in power?
At what point (in your highly educated opinion) does someone people vote for become inelligible to be voted for? Is it 4 years? 8 years? 12 years? Is it until they become the age of 72? 65? 90?
As a reminder, this is assuming elections are fixed and not rigged.
8 years. It’s literally in the constitution. The country put that there because of FDR and realized that wasn’t a good situation. Now we are going to throw that out because our guy is in power? I’m guessing the vast majority of people on here are for term limits for congress, so in your opinion, why does it make sense to undo the progress that we made with the presidency? (And if you are anti congressional term limits then that is fine and is an answer also.)
8 years for president... You were speaking to Congress, which is what I'm responding to. You're complaining everyone just votes for who's in the party so I wanted to know at what point you believe the voters votes shouldn't count since "the same bad people just stay in power because everyone just votes for whoever is in their party".
It’s coming across as you’re just trying to be cute with your wording and implying that I don’t think peoples votes should count. If you’re against term limits just say you are against term limits and that be that. If you’re seriously asking, I think eight years for a congressman and 12 years for a senator is when term limit should kick in and so yes, that’s the point at which peoples votes don’t count anymore 🙄
Nah, not trying to be cute. Just trying to find out whether you were for or against the will of the voters. Good to see you clarified you are against comrade.

People also tend not to pay attention to House and Senate candidates, voting for familiar sounding names.
