We no longer have to imagine what the first presidential debate would have been like had Seth Meyers been the moderator.
On Wednesday's Late Night, the host asked several oddball questions, splicing in answers given by Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump during Monday's debate — for instance, when "asking" Clinton how she feels about "the fact that Trump exclusively dates younger women," she "responded," "Today's my granddaughter's second birthday, so I think about this a lot." This faux debate is only slightly wackier than the one that actually took place — if there's a reality TV star participating, why can't a late night talk show host be the moderator?
