In the United States, 2024 census data shows the average voter age is 51, with a median of 48. The hosts conclude that because younger people (ages 18-24) have significantly lower turnout rates (48%) compared to seniors (75%), youth-led movements like those for Bernie Sanders often fail to materialize at the ballot box.

Claims are made that the Democratic Party opposes citizenship questions on the census to maximize representation in states like California by counting non-citizens. The historical shift from the three-fifths clause to counting the "whole number of persons" is examined.

Simultaneously, reports from the Congressional Budget Office indicate a massive surge in immigration, with 6.5 million illegal immigrants entering the U.S. recently. Analysts suggest this influx provides cheap labor for construction and service industries, effectively suppressing wages for native-born workers.

While critics argue non-citizen voting is already illegal and rare, proponents suggest the bill is necessary for election integrity and to address concerns about the census. The visit is seen as a move to solidify Johnson's standing with the Republican base.

Data from 2021 indicates the median age of the U.S. population is 38.8 years, highlighting a significant age gap between lawmakers and the general public. The discussion explores how the current legislative structure favors longevity over demographic representation.
