Here’s what I said about Grassly earlier in this thread:
Guys pathetic, over 40 ■■■■■■■ years as a senator amassing a net worth of about 5 million dollars and at nearly 90 can’t let that power go. TERM LIMITS ANYONE!
Iowa voters are free to vote Grassley out, are they not ?

Hard, not impossible. And it has been done plenty of times, both in primary and general.
Yes it’s hard. That’s why grassly, pelosi and Mitch can run probably til they are 100.
That’s is the point. The longer they stay, the more power and influence they have. It makes it harder to rid them.

Still, if the voters have had enough - and the challenger is attractive - they’ll vote them out. Example - Richard Lugar, the longtime (six term) senator from Indiana was unceremoniously deposed by the Tea Party challenger in 2012.
Or if they like them, they’ll keep them. And maybe they’re sincerely liked by the voters. Why should we supersede the will of the voters like we know better than them ?
Raising term limits for members of the House of Reps and Senate raises the question whether term limits should also introduced to justices of the Supreme Court.
Why?
…
Why what?
Why should it raise the SCOTUS question. Come on.
Come on? My post clearly articulated the rationale for doing so.

No, it didn’t.

In my post.
I believe that currently there are two senators per state making a total of 100 senators. I am intrigued how one senator can be blamed for all the perceived ills during his tenure given it would be one vote out of 100.
