    Gonna need that debate to be at 2pm… 9pm was way past Joey’s bedtime.

      I mean, given my work schedule it was late for me too. But it was an OK time for the other coast I suppose. Good thing I have a DVR.

      Old age aside, that’s the curse of campaigning while actively President I think. Biden’s been up since god knows when hearing reports, making tactical decisions, worrying about multiple wars, working the reporters, navigating security concerns and doing his job, while also having to rehearse what he can anticipate, get to the studio and get all made up and go on TV. I’d be fried at the tail end of such a day too.

      Trump probably threw a party, napped, popped some strong pills, printed another copy of his same old rally speech and came out of a hotel across the street ready to blame some immigrants for the sun going down.

      Maybe we should get the VP to run the country on important days like debates so the active president can get the same treatment as the guy with nothing better to do?

        Maybe we should switch to a single term limit… That way the president never has to be distracted by campaigning.
