On Nov. 27, 1978, the late Dianne Feinstein, then the 45-year-old president of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors and two-time failed mayoral candidate called a press conference to announce her retirement.
That afternoon, a supervisor shot Mayor George Moscone and Supervisor Harvey White.
Feinstein handled the moment with poise, and went on to serve 9 years as mayor and 3 decades in the U.S. Senate.
@TheConversationUS@histodons Another out-of-touch power hungry boomer who kept “working” long after her brain turned to mush.
Even Walmart wouldn’t hire somehow like her to be a greeter. How do we let these people run our country? There’s nothing wrong with getting old, but there’s a point for a lot of people where their mental capacity is gone.
