On Thursday I posted a clip of Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) endorsing an effort from her colleague, Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.), to lower the voting age to 16.
“I myself personally — I’m not speaking for my caucus, I myself have always been for lowering the voter — the voting age to 16,” Pelosi said during her weekly press conference. “I think it’s really important to capture kids when they’re in high school, when they’re interested in all of this, when they’re learning about government to be able to vote. … But my view is that I would welcome that. But I had been in that position for a long time.”
Since then, young Americans have begun sharing stories of what they were doing as 16-year-olds, and why this doesn’t bode well for this demographic shaping the course of foreign and domestic policy.
Below, please enjoy some of the most hilarious explanations of why Pelosi’s push to again lower the voting age might not be such a hot idea.

What no one seems to talk about is, once registered I assume they will also be on juries deciding people’s fate.
If God Forbid the Dems get control of both houses and POTUS, they are going to see to it that they NEVER lose another election again. Bank on it.
Stupid libs, can’t leave anything untouched.
They’re kids - let them be kids for a while already!
Some of those are really funny.
The left has the schools, and now they want their votes.
Pathetic.
Thank you for saying what I’ve been braying, how those deep in indoctrination inundation shouldn’t be near a voting station. (Wow, unintentionally poetic how pathetic.)
I thought so, too. Don’t we deserve a laugh when civilization seems to be collapsing?
That was my experience. We might be related!
Pajamas are comfy.
I am as worried about our country as I was in 2007.
God help us.
I believe that people have a grip on the situation. I thought they were funny too!
Ah, yes...”07, when the RATs took the house and things started to go downhill.
But when we had both houses and the presidency for two years and did not build the wall, crush vote fraud or imprison the criminal Clintons, I began to lose faith.
As a Christian, I believe:
GOD’s got the whole world in hands. Get right with GOD and your burdens will be lighter in the troubles we face today.
Beware the powers of deception Satan uses against GOD’s people. Pray and ask GOD for HIS guidance and deliverance from these.
GOD has a plan. He is sovereign and he will not change but you can. Try to get with plan... follow GOD and trust in HIM. Turn away from those who preach unsound doctrine.
GOD will raise up GODly men to lead us. Never forget GOD can change the hearts and minds of any sinner, fill them with the holy spirit, and re-purpose them to follow HIM. So take some time to closely judge the fruits of yourself and our political candidates and cast your vote accordingly.
Praise GOD for his many blessings - great and small. Many times you have been blessed and don’t know it. Give thanks and remember to those who have been given much, much is expected.
And may GOD be with you...knowing that all (men) have sinned in the eyes of GOD but also knowing HE cared enough to give his only son to redeem you.
So do not worry, GOD is in control. You aren’t alone so pray for one another. Don’t cast stones or bear false witness against one another. Turn the other cheek and pray for your enemies.
THEN, follow or lead but know this: GOD’s will is going to be done. So it is written, so it shall be done.
