“Ha, lawman, ya got contempt hung around yo neck!”

“Ya call yo’self a black president, but don’t serve chitlins and greens at state dinners?”

It seems a misfortune.

They forget what an obnoxious head case he was.

By the way, I am pretty much against the idea of dueling on a couple of grounds. From a purely social point of view, it creates a practice and social space which nihilistic psychotics inhabit and capitalize on. And there is a metaphysical dimension too; regarding the ultimate fate of men who would throw their lives away in such a calculating fashion.

A fight to the death is one thing. Planning one, is another.

“I kind of like this old time gentlemen calling each other out and because of their advanced years I think a duel with pistols 20 feet apart at sunrise on the mall, single shot, no high capacity crap in DC. Furthermore, if required get a special dispensation from congress to make it legal. Probably pass by a bi-partisan total majority.”

Agree. Too much mouth, too little honor.

Heck, paintball guns tuned up to 350-400 fps and 30 rounds; no protection, no mercy, would be worth watching as well.

They are both populist leaders who have created cults of personality with radically different objectives. At least Trump is not a machine politician as Obama was, in addition to being populist.

I believe both represent the deterioration and polarization of America. I’m more sympathetic to Trump but I have no idea how it all works out long-term beyond my sense things will get worse before they get better.
