No Studio Audience

Here's an idea: Lose the damn studio audience at the debates. No one cares about hearing their circus noises. Treat it like Kennedy/Nixon.

I seem to remember that despite such commands to be quiet, there is still a lot of partisan cheering during the debates.

No audience at all. And that's the way the debates during the primaries should be.

Circus noises or, in the case of Trump's mob, gorilla grunts.
