Sessions is the same age as Trump and both turn 75, this year.
I have mixed feelings about the age thing.
I'm not talking about AG, I was referring to a SCOTUS seat (as per the post I had quoted and responded to). AG is fine, he's term limited to however long the President stays in office, if he sticks around that long. But you make SCOTUS appointments with an eye to the future and influencing the court for decades to come

You shouldn’t pick anyone based on age but it seems that has become the rage under Trump except when it come to AG’s. Life experience is very important.
It's difficult to see how this pick could be considered controversial; he's eminently qualified.
He bugs some on the left because his judicial record shows significant deference to law enforcement over 4th amendment issues. And now he bugs some on the right because he would not commit to releasing the Durham report. Nevertheless his nomination is bound to sail through because both positions are amenable to not making the entrenched power centers uncomfortable.
So from what I am seeing, this is part of a complex chess game - he's moving Garland so he can put his SCOTUS pick into Garland's current seat on the DC circuit until such time as a SCOTUS seat opens up. Not to say Garland isn't qualified to be AG of course, but there are many others who are as well
The SCOTUS is locked up for the next 10 years. Biden will get no pick.

two justices in their 70s and one in his 80s
This is an absurd claim
