Boris is obviously a buffoon and a disaster, but I still don't think he comes anywhere close to being as dangerous or as horrible as Trump. I would trade any day. Besides, Boris isn't going to last long, but I am beginning to think that Trump will never leave unless he is physically carried out of the White House.

(205,532 posts)There were times he's been off for so long that I almost forgot that he's on at all! And I have to agree with your assessment, Boris is unpopular and clearly a buffoon, but they can get rid of him anytime! Why don't we have that option??
p.s. Since the late night guys were a live after tonight's debate, I was required to post them in Primaries. I'm afraid that those who usually look forward to them won't know to look there - and since they just made good humored jokes, I imagine they'll sink pretty fast.
Here's Seth, his Closer Look was live tonight:
