A reminder on why the age of your candidate matters.
I'm 56 and things have changed a lot in my life time. I've been buffered from many of them because we are childless it's easier to accumulate wealth. We've also been lucky in avoiding layoffs where we couldn't overcome loss in income but our neighbours have not always been as fortunate.
Now take someone like Trump, who matured in a tumultuous time and had the wherewithal to exploit systems for his benefit and his wealth insulated him from updating any worldviews. He's nostalgic for the 70s because he wasn't affected by river fires and his money (again) buffered him from economic downturns.
When he thinks swamp he thinks (uppity) blacks and immigrants followed by poor people who don't "know their place". Small business owners, including farmers, are there to be exploited by big business.
