Probably Trump :x since at least he's not a sociopathic reptile.

Trump is the very definition of sociopathic reptile.

I disagree. Trump is definitely a mammal.

Cruz, easily.
One should never underestimate the damage that can be caused by sheer blundering ignorance, when combined with contempt for rule of law.
The purpose of studying economics is not to acquire a set of ready-made answers to economic questions, but to learn how to avoid being deceived by economists.

It really was the worst possible timing for Cruz, wasn't it.  :wacko:

Now that we're in the final stretch of our long national nightmare, I'd just like to reflect on my Favorite Fucking Things this election:

1. Egg McMuffin (potentially) winning Utah
2. Aleppo Johnson confirming for everyone how idiotic the Libertarian Party is.
3. Aleppo Johnson's Veep basically telling people to vote for Hillary, not Johnson
4. Chris Christie hostage video
5. Bernouts

Donald, for all he's done for us, the American electorate and interested parties around the globe, doesn't make my Favorites list.

How many Americans know what/where Aleppo is? I bet most Languishites couldn't even find it on a map.

I bet that if you gave a test to Trump and Johnson, Johnson would be more knowledgeable about world affairs than Trump.
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

There's a fine line between salvation and drinking poison in the jungle.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

Who gives a shit?  They're not running for POTUS.

At Trump could name 1 foreign leader (Putin); Spicoli couldn't even do that. "Former President of Mexico" isn't an acceptable answer on Jeopardy!, either.

I know you've got a big Assburger boner for Johnson because he climbed Some fucking mountains, but all that lack of oxygen and too much grass has left him dumber than a box of fucking rocks.   So knock it the fuck off already.

I don't. I mean, I know it is in Syria and I know where Syria is, but if you gave me a blank map of Syria I couldn't identify Aleppo.

Okay I'm not running for president, but I don't get the impression that our leaders are universally better.

The question was a leader he admired. Putin isn't the right answer, even if Trump would come up with that.

It is roughly midway between Edessa and Antioch. Every Byzanteen knows that.

Play our game and see if you can find the city on a map.

Awesome. Byzanteens for POTUS.
