    I would love if the president had to be able to run a mile and do pull-ups. Might keep these braindead racists off the throne.

      Won’t work. Brain-dead racists can be physically fit.

        Or they’ll just make exceptions because hypocrisy is a strategy not a weakness for them

        But it would likely stop 60+ year olds from being president

        But would it be worse than the current system?

          It might: imagine if your country were controlled by a young and energetic brain-dead racist, not an old covfefe who might die any moment.

            You’re talking about the vice president? But instead of trafficking teen girls, we’ll see endless articles on sofas

      A presidential fitness test for the president and congress would be pretty cool actually.

        Or, more likely, it’d just be used to keep disabled people even further out of politics than they already are

          Obviously we’d need special rules for the disabled
