So just what would have happened if his “Fire in the Reichstag” had worked on January 6th?
Would Eastman’s plan also have been constitutional in your view?

So you've already given up on Biden being re-elected based on his own merit, huh

Not at all, Trump is the current odds on favorite with bookies worldwide.

So was Hillary

Looked like he shut his eyes for a minute, I fell sound asleep in a meeting once and I was far younger then.

Don’t forget, we once had a president who wondered if you could inject disinfectants into the human body to cure disease. He thought we had planes that were invisible, and he ate “hamberders.” He wanted to shoot nuclear missiles at hurricanes, put alligators in a moat, and buy Greenland.

I see McAuliffe brought the head of the national teachers union to stump for him last night. In an election that's only close because parents of students feel like their concerns are being ignored by schools, he brings in the president of the national teachers union to stump for him.

You can't cure stupid.

I still say McAuliffe wins by a few, I just can't believe it's that close in a blue state Biden just won by double digits. I don't believe polling anymore.

Yes, Obama the great unifier says parents of rape victims, have no legitimate beef when their daughter is violently sodomized and then the superintendent lies about the rape taking place at a public meeting. That's just phony, trumped-up, Fox news gas-lighting. No rational person could be concerned over that. And then calling those people who say they're concerned, domestic terrorists.

Again, it's like they're trying to see how far they can go, before they trigger an actual civil war.
