let’s take a poll on which dog breed DJT might select — or a cat
My bet is on Long-Haired Slovenian.
I think we can all agree that the Donald is more of a cat person than a dog person.
Yes, this is all very cute, dogs vs cats. But I'd like to take it back to where we left it off:
And please don't say this is far fetched, because it isn't.
Will Turkey succeed in manipulating the gruesome murder/disposition of the Washington Post journalist to its own advantage? Or is the Times’ supposition only more manipulation?
I'm guessing one of those hawks Saudis train to fly-attack-return. He could bait them with the scent of democrats.
That picture recalled a trip to Israel some ten years ago. The guys in your photo are explaining safety rules to the passengers and “birds,” but on our flight there were obviously armed, burly men in street clothes who stood, staring at the passengers throughout the very long flight. Rather than giving us a sense of protection, I remember feeling scared — scared at the realization of the perceived threat to everyone on board.

Any comment on the attacks today, presumably the work of your political compatriots?
It kind of puts the terrorist threat from the "migrant convoy" in perspective, doesn't it?

Please provide us all with your evidence of who/whom the perpatrator(s) is/are.

how much are you willing to bet that it was a member of the "migrant convoy"?

How can there be any doubt that Erdogan will use this to his advantage?

This is far fetched, Trump is not a good motivational speaker.

How do you explain the pep rallies? How do you explain the nationalism? How do you explain half of the country thinks he's doing terrifically well?

Future enrollees in Trump University, investors in Trump Casinos, and people waiting to have their genitals grabbed.

White people
will sanctuary cities, such as Maplewood, be able to cope financially and provide for a percentage of the caravan? Housing, schooling, jobs, etc.? Without federal funds?
I am not fear-mongering, but reality has a way of messing things up.

Given that we are pretty close to full employment in this country, I doubt we would have to provide for them for very long. People who are so eager for opportunity that they will walk a thousand miles through hostile territory just to make a better life for their children tend to be go getters.

do you know how many people in those caravans typically reach the U.S.? The thousands who set out on foot toward the U.S. are typically numbered in the hundreds by the time they reach the border. Our country should be able to easily cope with the few hundreds who make it here. You are indeed fear-mongering, because you are in fact NOT reflecting reality.

Seems to me a lot of those folks would be happier living in the CSA. Somewhere along the way a big chunk of this country forgot what it meant to be American.

Seriously. The Democratic candidate for governor in GA was forced this week to explain why she participated in burning a confederate symbol 25 years ago. As if burning the flag of a country that fought against the U.S. is a bad thing.

Mtierney, I would be interested in your perspective on this, as someone who was apparently deeply concerned about HRC's emails.

They laugh at people like you.
You are predictably played like a cheap piano. Another super duper threat shouted from the rooftops, a threat your savior will save you from.
Reminds me of the super duper threat from NK that we were made suddenly aware of. A threat that your savior supposedly saved us all from.
How does it feel to be poked and pinched, to be turned into a simple Kewpie Toy? They poke and pinch knowing exactly how you and your type will respond.
Yes, they laugh.

They're just pep rallies. I would guess the economy.
