A tale of two town halls

       It's too bad we couldn't have had a true split-screen experience last night.  tRump and Joe Biden held dueling town hall meetings and from what I could see in the few minutes I was able to stomach the Cheetolini version it couldn't have been more different from Biden's.   Uncle Joe was respectful of his questioners and offered in at least one case to meet with the undecided voter after the telecast.  Meanwhile, a sweaty and seemingly annoyed president* spewed lies, conspiracy theories and under firm but fair questioning by Samantha Guthrie admitted owing over 400 million dollars to foreign interests, although he would not say who.   Instead he offered to get back to Guthrie and let her know.  Right after he releases his tax returns.

      If any undecided voters did not make up their minds after those performances, their pulses should be checked for signs of life.   Yes, my nephew Robbie will undoubtedly say both candidates are sellouts and our lives will be no different under either man.  Assuming that is his stance, I beg to differ.   While I don't believe for a minute every bit of Biden's plans will be enacted into law,  at least we will be living in a democracy.   Cheeto Jesus will shred the very foundations of our country as he converts the greatest experiment in self rule in history into a 3rd rate banana republic.
