Phoenix police must document each time they point a gun at somebody.

It's a good beginning.

Why? He's just a different kind of ex-President.

Nah

Not yet anyway

Has to talk his wife into running if they want their legacy to be grand

Stay tuned.

Addendum - some would say Michelle is letting down her nation by being content to just lay in her millions

Like Joe not running in 2016.......

Just Cheney and Biden among VPs choosing not to run in recent times, right?

Cheney had his health issues

Obama did not let Joe run in 2016.
According to YankGuy Obama is a genius.

I didn't say he was a genius. I said he was smarter than you and President Greenland. That's actually not a high bar.

Too bad Obama fell short of his legacy goals of matching the status of  Reagan.

What do you have against Greenland?

That was microanalysis.  Trump isnt the first president to consider the acquisition.

Wasn't he AFFIRMATIVE ACTION at Harvard?

If so, you have just cited the most compelling single case for AA ever cited.

Had he championed a tax cut and Joe Biden as his successor Obama would be eligible for elevation to Reagan status.
Oops.

Trump passed one of the largest tax cuts in history and a) it is enormously unpopular and b) just two years later we are scrambling to stave off recession.

That is some legacy.

"Obama got outsmarted"!
Dog bites man.
I'm confident that Obama could match intellects with you, let alone President Nitwit, any day of the week.
Proving what?
That, like Trump, you criticizing Obama's intellect demonstrates even further your lack of one.

Wasn't he AFFIRMATIVE ACTION at Harvard?
I have no idea. And if he was?

I give him credit for doing what he has with his opportunity

Of course now he should be on STIFLE re:  the running of this nation.

Second sentence a non sequitur.  Doesn't follow from the first one at all.   

Professionals have every right to criticize clumsy amateurs who give their profession a bad name.

The last time we went from July 15 through Aug. 19 with no named storms in the Atlantic was 1982, according to a Colorado State University meteorology report.

How come Josh is not thanking Climate Change?

Because it was not the frequency of the hurricanes, but their intensity, that was attributed to climate change, nimrod.
What is the average intensity of  ZERO  storms  ?

Weather and climate are two different things, you ignorant putz.
