If watching Trump and Biden go head to head on a presidential debate in 2020 wasn’t entertaining enough - two delusional old geezers at the time, who were prone to go off script, pluck stats out of thin air like magicians, much to the dismay and alarm of their debating teams and think nothing of jokingly make crude sexist remarks, a testament of their sensibilities stuck in a bygone patriarchal era.

Here we have them debating head to head again, older and wiser? Nay, older and more delusional than ever and dare I say more baffling and bewildering to watch.

Biden was mumbling and going on tangents that made no sense, turning trillions to billions and millions and vice versa, and Trump was constantly going off script to hark on his past glory and flawless presidency which exists only in his head. The whole debate was a spectacle of Comedy of Errors and Much Ado about Nothing and made the whole world wonder, why these two dittering old men who belong in a retirement village playing golf. Does USA, a country with more than 330 million people really have no other who an lead them other than these two?

There is something really wrong with the political system if this is all they can offer, two dittering old geezers who are incapable of talking or thinking eloquently with clear head, or is it that so much has been invested by the real powers in grooming these two that no other option works for them?

After all we are increasingly living in a world of smoke screens, but one thing is clear, whoever is actually pulling the strings backstage is not a friend of USA public or humanity at large.
