But I mean come on this isn't rocket science Yes, I do believe a lot of people do fucked up things when they're 14, and that they shouldn't be judged by them their whole lives, and should have time to grow and change FIVE YEARS IS NOT THAT MUCH TIME TO GROW AND CHANGE

I DON'T think all of those things are true -- I was a little shit at 13 but I was never the cause of someone almost killing themselves -- and yet I do think someone ready for a position of that kind of responsibility at 19 is very rare I sure as fuck wouldn't vote for me at 19

Among other things, think about the number of people you knew in college who went through radical changes in political commitments and identity. I knew socialists who became Limbaugh types and vice versa. There is a huge difference between 19 and 25 in this.

I was a shitty person at 13, but I also didn't use revenge porn to blackmail my classmates to send me nudes. Mostly, I was shitty because I would pick my nose in public and would rather get people to laugh than care about their feelings so I could be kinda mean.

So like, if the charge is "when we were 13, he got invited to my birthday party, said he was coming, then went to a different party because he liked that kid more" then yeah, I'm pretty willing to ignore that, even if the candidate is only 19.
