What kind of sandwich would you make?

I know what kind of sandwich you are going to end up with in 2020. It will be a **** sandwich without the bread. Bon appetite.

@snood,
I wouldn't be capable of making a sandwich because I'd be laughing too much.

And waste all those calories? You didn’t even mention all the fat.

Seriously, have you read the Federalist Papers?

just say, “Jesus, I need your help.” That’s when you’re going to get Jesus. And folks, I’m not up here like some preacher, man, let me tell you. I mean, I never bragged about it or all that kind of stuff, but I’ve had a few girlfriends and done a few things and beat people to death and things like that.

Like JC said, 'As a man thinks in his heart, so is he.'.

We're all so fucked! How many exploding heads have I imagined!

@Leadfoot,
I think it's a typo.

@Leadfoot,
The guy is a serial liar so he may well be, you know, bragging about being a sociopathic murder but lying. But you have to be some level of sociopath to even broadcast such a falsehood.

It also says something about his audience, that's the sort of thing that impresses them.

They didn’t have duck hunting in mind when writing up that list.

Guns are for shooting elected people?

No. They are for self defense and for militia duties.

He wouldn't understand the Federalist Papers even if he read them. Although he would be quick to tell everyone that he thinks the same thing that the authors think.

Oh, yes indeed.

And it is the same sort of technique that Trump uses with his base which has a significant overlap with this guy's audience.

Bullies, authoritarians and sociopaths almost always promote a notion of their own dangerousness to others. And there are those who think this a good thing - "that's my kind of leader"

Updates / Final Election Results: Netanyahu Bloc Short of Clear Majority With 58 Seats

Israel's politics have been pretty much totally fucked by the Israeli right.

Don't be silly. Name one thing that is wrong with their current policies.

You can't and you won't.

@blatham,
On the other side: Jabareen’s Joint List, an alliance of Arab-led parties had its best election ever, now holding 15 seats in Parliament, a record for an Arab-led political faction in Israel.

Russia’s money sure goes a long way. Russian troll farm spent $46,000 on ads overwhelmingly unrelated to election, but yet Steyer says “Russia bought the election.” Imagine what Russian troll farm employees could’ve done w/ Steyer’s $250 million & Bloomberg’s $600 million?

Nikki Haley blasts professors, colleges over their 'biases'

Quote:
"When we were all growing up and going through college, that's when you found the power of your voice. That's when you decided how you think and what you think and all that. Now it's gotten to where colleges and universities - they don't teach you how to think. They teach you what to think," Haley said.

"When [students are] so fearful to speak out because it will hurt their grade or they'll be ostracized within their classes, you've got a real problem," Haley said, citing a recent study that found conservatives on college campuses self censor three times as much as their liberal counterparts.


"Colleges and universities are there to allow people to figure out who they are," Haley added.

The former ambassador then sent a strong message to professors, saying, "You're there to teach. Let the students decide where they fall."

Good advice, I doubt it will have much effect, but the more it is driven home by leaders like Haley it will.
