In the mid 2030s, the '60 babies will be mid 70s. Plenty left for presidency, senate, C-level, etc., but the rank and file are starting to be dead or incapacitated.

It might be really until the 2040s (and mid-80s for them), that they can be completely ignored

In all seriousness, the wealth transfer aspects are underrated. Even if you’re “only” 75 you aren’t running your small business day to day nearly as effectively and/or you’re going to get wrecked by any competitor who can take advantage of your slower brain. As the trillions of dollars of wealth that US boomers currently sit on are circulated through the economy there will be a prolonged tailwind for investment and various follow on effects (eg lower interest rates). This will happen while the opposite is happening in China with their olds ie their demographic timebomb is peaking. And by 2030 the growing pains of AI should have settled into the massive profit phase of that development cycle, sort of the parallel to where cloud computing was in the 2015-17 range. I think the ultimate question of whether US global hegemony endures into the second half of the 21st century is whether we are smart about how to exploit the period of advantage we will have in the 2030s and use it to craft longer term bulwarks to our soft power.
