Again, don't make me ****ing laugh. Political power? Hardly, in comparison to the Jedi Supreme Chancellors. Being assholes? Well, you might have a point there.
It's an old tactic liberally utilized by a losing side around and it's only effective so long as you allow them to use it unanswered.
My recommendation, if you have the energy? Begin tearing apart all the accolades and feats surrounding Bane and Kas'im. Conveyed via text, they are at an inherent disadvantage compared to the likes of Maul, Agen Kolar, Obi-Wan, etc. I would recommend labeling them as "ambiguous," "vague," "unsubstantiated," and "hyperbolic."
Either way, they lose. 👆

He's talking about it in comparison to what we see before in the OT, when the Order is extinguished, as in now the Jedi are at the height of their success and there a bunch of them fighting at once. When he elaborates all he talks about is them fighting in large groups.
He makes no mention to skill or combat ability. And he doesn't say golden age as far as I heard.

"golden age" and "prime" do not merely extend to "not as crappy as when there were two known, aging Jedi left".

LOL, wut? He's clearly referencing fight choreography and action sequences, not how many Jedi there were, a definition of "prime" that has no relevance to the subject matter, ie., their demonstrated skill in 1 vs. 1, or 2 vs. 1 lightsaber duels.
My mistake. The musics too loud and I thought he said it was the 'heyday of the old age of the republic'.

Regardless, thats whats he's actually talking about. He mentions lots of jedi fighting in a group which is something we've never seen before since usually its just a few fighting at any time.
Thats because there is no relevance to the subject matter you dork! He's not referring to 1 on 1 fights, he's talking about multiple jedi fighting together in large-scale combat. He specifically contrasts what hes talking about to one on one fights!

Wha-what the f*ck are you talking about?
Why don't you turn your speakers up some more, and re-watch the video?

I'm watching the 7 minute mark when he says the quote and all he's mentioning is large battles. If you're referring to another part of the video, y'all need to point it out to me.

Yup.
Like? I acknowledge that he does well in combat against other Force users in his era and is firmly in the big 4 but that's literally all he's ever done; his physical, TK and lightning feats are all thoroughly outclassed and all attempts at establishing the PT Jedi as better than orders from other eras have failed spectacularly.
Claiming that Dooku has better feats than PoD Bane is a completely unjustifiable position.
