In extreme circumstances, it’s theoretically possible.

Mr. Obama’s soiled underwear is ten times more classy than Hillary’s Opponent. I will truly miss this man, but hopefully President Clinton will have a good job for him. Junior Justice of the Supreme Court? There is at least one opening, which WILL be filled by the next President. On that topic, Mitch McConnell can swallow rusty razor blades.I personally think he will allow a vote on Judge Garland in the lame duck, to avoid the prospect of President Clinton (gee, I love typing that phrase) nominating someone even more unpalatable to the Obstructionist Caucus, say, Barack Obama?

You’d think so, but amid all the bluster you notice times when he’s remarkably reluctant to mix it up with someone. He’s got an animal’s sense not just of weakness, but of strength in a potential antagonist, and I think he knows on some level that attacking Michelle would be disastrous. She’s as popular, respected, and loved as just about any public figure I can think of. So if he hasn’t responded by now I’m thinking he won’t. His numbers with women and minorities aren’t that great as it is. : )

For instance, the President of Mexico.
Yep. That was a good one. “We didn’t talk about that.” “We did too talk about that, you lying sack. And I told you no haps.” One delicious episode among many.

While the prez drinks Donnie’s milkshake.
The President gave a blistering, scorching speech last night at a state Democratic Party event. He tore in to Republican officials for condoning the crazy train the past eight years, and enabling Trump until just very recently.
MSNBC’s Chris Hayes showed part of it.

Yes Michelle is popular, respected and loved except by HO’s supporters. HO doesn’t need to open that can of whoop ass since he’s got the anti-Michelle voters.

A lot of groups advancing reasonable goals might also attract extremist followers.
Every hear of the environmentalist groups Earth First or the Friends of the Earth? Some of them have been known to pound spikes into trees that are slated for harvest as timber. Then, when the spiked tree goes to a lumber mill, some poor worker’s mill saw hits the hardened steel and he gets injured by flying metal.

True, and I generally have no problem with any group that opposes the mistreatment of animals. But I think Ingrid Newkirk is both an extremist and a wacky person, and her group has that in its DNA and reflects badly on the overall movement. “Sea kittens”? “Fishsave, New York”? No other group has a list of sillinesses like that to its discredit. And then there’s the killing dogs and cats. Not a big fan of that. If you want to run a shelter, strive to get the animals adopted. Don’t have an astronomical kill rate and whine that it’s society’s fault. I believe they simply don’t want the animals adopted because the whole idea of companion animals isn’t to their liking. So they kill them instead. If I’m wrong about that I’m wrong but that’s my theory.
Agree. Some people, even well-meaning ones, lack a sense of perspective and proportion.
I remember a couple of years ago when a local guy gave this big speech downtown about animal abuse, and called it the “number one problem” we were facing. I said, really? Worse than unemployment, terrorism, crime, violence, corruption?

He does in this video. He gets going about 15 minutes in. One of the best speeches I’ve ever seen.

It’s possible that no one could explain to Trump what nunca pasa means.
