I wonder if Red would have been outraged if the Wolverines had attacked the Ohio state governor, rather than engage in an attempted intra-state kidnapping?

Congress should convert the Thurmond Rule from an urban legend into actual legislation, settling on a specific set of criteria for closeness to a presidential election.  For example, ACB was nominated 38 days from the election (the shortest distance from the election in history).  One criteria could be to look at early voting dates.  In South Dakota, that was Sept. 18th, which means that I could have already voted before Barrett's nomination.  So one possibility would be to say that no nominations can be made after the earliest states begin voting, which would provide a fairly rational demarcation point.
LOL
Let’s just stop ANY action by Governments doing ANYTHING Barton doesn’t like once early voting starts....

The late $21M infusion of cash that rump didn't have until his (possible only) friend Phil Ruffin slipped Trump money from a personal guaranteed loan his casino took out and funneled to Trump as "business expenses."

Both an illegal campaign contribution and false accounting to hide that fact.

Shades of Nixon and a plane full of Howard Hughes casino money from Las Vegas ready ti bail out Nixon in '68.

Trump apparently introduced Phil Ruffin to his very own Eastern European young trophy wife/model (Hungarian born Ukrainian).

The Las Vegas casino moguls came through for Trump after initial skepticism.  Bibi's BFF Sheldon Adelson and wife (she's Israel's richest citizen), Steve Wynn and others coughed up plenty of casino money form Trump in `16.  Funding his inauguration and such.  The Adelsons certainly got plenty of payback, the Iran nuke deal squashed, Iranian sanctions, Israel as a settler's paradise, Jerusalem, the presidential Medal of Freedom for Miriam A., etc.

What did Phil Ruffin get?
Trump Admin approved the high speed train from the CA desert to Las Vegas. So $1B worth of tax free bonds were sold, and work supposed to be starting.  A project Obama nixed as too expensive.  Which would whisk LA money to LV in 90 mins, but would make more sense if it reached LA and not just the high desert.  Of course, the Trump Admin nixed the CA high speed train project which would actually be beneficial to transportation and the economy in CA, instead of just the casino industry in Las vegas.

Thinking back, I'd have to say that it was another great week for Trump!

He’s working on a plan to kidnap his governor for being some kind of a communist.

Trump is getting some kind of medical examination on TV.

When is due?

Who knocked him up?

LOL!
Red laughing at his own empty soul.

I have a new approach to trolling,  starting today.   Whenever someone trolls me,  I answer with this:  Why are you so afraid of democracy?

LOL!
Offering a differing opinion on your posts means that poster is opposed to democracy?
Then he is most certainly a troll(although the post was a RESONSE to yours ).
Then, of course, the next descriptor will most certainly be You are a Racist!

Get over yourself.
