If that's how the debates went down - Trump doing verbal battle with a smiling Robo-Biden in a wheelchair, with Obama acting as the literal man behind the curtain - my 2020 would be complete. They could either do that, or diagnose Biden with a severe case of COVID a week before the debates happen - and subsequently keep him sitting with a blanket and a hot cup of tea in his basement for the rest of the election cycle.

Good point - we have a minimum age to be president - why don't we have a maximum age? I mean - hasn't medicine advanced enough since these restrictions were put in place that it's worth looking at revising them? I'd be okay with 70 being the cutoff.
A lot of people were making fun of the DNC for the song with black dracula they had this year - but I honestly thought it was a marked improvement over their effort in 2016 - folks have short memories:
