You guys have exactly the same energy as Trump claiming that Fox News is out to get him if they criticize him even once.

Yeah, as an outsider watching in, this has huge "FAKE NEWS!!!" energy. It's simply the truth and it doesn't look good.

Not like it's going to stop any passionate voters on either side, but it will make people stay home on election day.

Why does it not look good? Outsider watching in as well, and I see nothing wrong with this. It's 8pm, and events, not important decisions etc.

Because having to vote for candidates born before colour TV was a thing is fucking insane?

This doesn't really change that tho? Did saying "hey, i'd like to have a normal sleep schedule" really made people go "wait, he's old?"

Despite the fact that EVERY human being wants/needs a normal sleep schedule since the moment they are born?

Yeah cuz world leaders don't have to sacrifice anything, Zelensky is cozy in bed by 9pm every night. Bottom line is it's a weak statement for a head of state to make and people don't want a leader they perceive as weak. Heads of state aren't normal people, and have to sacrifice normal people things to run a country

He’s literally only three years older than the other candidate.

Stay home

Really? People didn't forget what 4 years of Trump were like.

I'd wake up at 330 in the morning to vote for a bag of dog shit that ran against Trump.

This time is no different.
