Put them both in soundproof booths and only turn on their microphones when it’s their turn to actually respond to a question.

Let's make it more interesting, shock collars for both of them.

You can’t broadcast the murder of two elderly people on national TV, they’d have put it on HBO or pay per view

It has seemed like the painfully obvious solution for years to simply have both mics powered off until and unless it's time for that candidate to speak.

If they get 30 seconds, after 30 seconds, the timer cuts the power again.

why would anybody tolerate that? I wouldn't. if my mic got cut after 30 seconds, I would kick over my podium and grab the moderator's mic.

And that means you wouldn’t make a very good president.

Well that's just how political debates in non-shithole countries work.

It picks the podium up, my friend or else it gets the hose again
