Another debate? The pantomime primary continues apace.
The pantomime primary has become a fixture of the US election scene in recent cycles, as candidates on both sides push to win their respective party’s nomination. The pantomime primary typically involves candidates appearing in concerts, fundraisers, and other flashy media events to win votes, often with the aim of catching the attention of voters and creating an aura of excitement for their respective campaigns.
