Oh man imagine if the debate was just a quiz show about 7the grade civics
God I fucking wish, do you know how many terrible politicians we'd be free of if it were?
Listen, those two chucklefucks went up onto that stage with no right answers and still even up failing. It really wouldn't matter to the electorate if they bombed a quiz.
