      Burns is so much more competent and successful than trump.

      Maybe sideshow Bob would work as trump but even he is probably too good to be equated to trump

    I kinda feel like this is unfair to Krusty…

      I’ve never seen anybody do Krusty so dirty. He’s just a depressed celebrity with substance abuse problems. Necessarily a bit shady, probably not a great role model, but there is a human being somewhere under that makeup!

        Krusty also sometimes admits he’s wrong and apologizes. He goes back to his old ways soon enough, but it’s a cartoon.

    It amazes me that one of the largest countries in the world, with the most diverse demographics, can only chose between two candidates. This is not democracy. It’s a shit show that has been going on for far too long.

      Tradition and inertia.

      The USA is proud to have the oldest and longest-standing written constitution. The fact it hasn’t been rewriteen in a long time help explain why there’s still an electoral college, slavery for prisoners (13th amendements), and weak regulation of campaign finance.

        Oldest active constitution is San Marino.

          That’s interesting. Thanks for pointing it out.

          My point is having a very old constitution isn’t much of a boast if keeping it as-is causes political issues.

      I’m not a big fan of Mark Cuban, but his assessment of things after the debate is pretty dead on.

        He lost me when he called Biden the “ethical candidate”. He is the less disgusting choice, but he is in no way an “ethical choice”.

          I think he means ethical in the way he explained it after he said that- ethical in that he respects the oath of office and doesn’t use it to enrich himself.

          I am sure that Cuban is politically savvy enough that there is no such thing as a truly ethical president (except maybe Jimmy Carter).

              I have never heard of that outlet and I don’t have any reason to give it my trust.
