As an Australian it only indirectly affects me, but both are showing their age and only going to get worse and itโ€™s frightening that their parties are both supportive of them. Weโ€™d have knifed our leaders several times if they were as senile as these two.

Two party system. Giving the people the choice between two absolutely senile potatoe. One more on the racist, sexist and cult leader side. The other one as old as time itself, can barely remember his own name.

Biggest failure point of what Americans call "democracy".

Neither of them should be in office, they should be in a nursing home instead.

To be fair the presidency has always aged the person holding office tremendously, thatโ€™s why age limits are so important as well as a criminal background check and a certain amount of education and this goes for congress to, which everyone should be paying close attention toโ€ฆ find out about your local representatives
