It’s not just the presidency, it’s American law in general.
If you’re 39 years old, your employer can flat out say you’re too young for a position so they won’t hire you for the promotion/position solely because of your age.
If you’re over 40, then they legally can’t say you’re too old for anything. But they can still just say you “don’t have enough experience”
Our laws about “age related discrimination” only legalized age related discrimination for anyone not elderly. For them we have to pretend science isn’t real and a 80 year old is just as capable as a 30 year old.
Which makes old people feel good about themselves, but obviously isn’t true.
It’s just elderly people make our laws, and they think anyone under retirement age is too inexperienced to do anything. So they had no issues making age related discrimination against literally half of Americans 100% legal
