If history is any indication, Christians will be manning the guillotines. When they run out of Muslims and Jews they'll turn on each other. Probably the catholics will be the first to get the chop.

How myopic.

Stupidity is a very common, and often well rewarded, trait in the U.S.

SAN DIEGO — The owners of a company that provides janitorial and housekeeping services to luxury hotels across Southern California have been indicted in a $7 million insurance fraud and tax evasion scheme that lasted nearly a decade, prosecutors said Monday.

Does it really take 10 years to figure something like this out? The indicters have already proved the case for their own stupidity. However, check out the size of their retirement benefits. May be as big as a schlong.

Does Trump do it at his places?

I for one, resent the disproportionate effect of Iowa and New Hampshire. Here in NY, it's often settled by the time our primary rolls around.

I'm not convinced that primaries accomplish all that much, other than burning untold quantities
of jet fuel. We're expected to rearrange our lives to save the world from global warming yet
these dysfunctional egos can jet all over ad nauseum? Hypocrites, every last one of 'em.

Christians will get the guillotine first.

Excellent point. Who cares about the thousands of Christians killed by ISIS this year. Or the hundreds of thousands displaced by ISIS. Boring.

Unless you're a minority in the US, no one cares.

Indeed. He showed his Brooklyn roots. Anyone that does Real Estate in Brooklyn, spends a lot of time with people of the Jewish faith. As did he. As did I. My early apartment flipping financier, had concentration camp tattoos.

Or how the Christians in Iraq lived alongside their Muslim neighbors under Saddam. And then we came along and opened the door for ISIS.

Who cares that the most virulent Palestinian terrorist, George Habash, was a Christian?

No, none of that matters. Only facts that fit the story we want to hear matter.

Other than the fact that Muslims have been bearing the brunt of Isis abuse.

But perhaps you were too busy fighting the war on Christmas to notice?

Ah, the ol "straight talking NY/NJ" angle. Kinda what they said about Kris Krispy Kreme Kristy...how's that working for the Outlaw Jersey Whale?

Here's the thing - outside the immediate NY/NJ/CT area, the in-your-face Noo Yawkah bluster just makes people just think you're an as#@&%e....which in the case of Trump and the Round Mound of a Clown happens to be true.

Nothing wrong with that. I'm pretty crass at times myself, and "schlong" is a regular part of my vocabulary.

But I'm not running for president. And I don't want a presidential candidate, let alone, president, giving speeches like that.

Does that somehow discount the plight of Christians in that part of the World?

No, none of that matters. Only facts that fit the story we want to hear matter.

Right. Like your comment about Christians manning the guillotines.

What are you saying? Since more Muslims are being harmed, the plight of Christians doesn't matter?

How broad-minded.

I can't remember the last time I used it. But my Brooklyn days are far behind me now.

An even bigger point, is wtf he was doing in Grand Rapids MI? There's so much of this, that is redefining our Presidential experience.

You're the kind of guy who when confronted with disproportionate abuse of minorities by police starts complaining about how nobody cares that police are abusive to white people sometimes too, aren't you.

Nobody has proposed barring Christian refugees from the US. In fact, people have specifically stated that we should only be allowing Christian refugees from Syria to enter the US.

"Schlong" as a yiddish word, has always carried a sexual connotation, referring to a man's penis itself. According to the Yiddish Slang Dictionary, the word comes from the German tern schlange, for "snake."

Having spend my own number of years in NYC, with Jewish/Yiddish culture surrounding me, I never once heard anyone use the term as a verb. "Shtup," on the other hand, yes. "She got shtupped," "I could use a good shtupping." But even then, the word was not used to refer to losing an election or getting screwed over.


So..... giving Trump some benefit of the doubt for being a bad study of his environment, had he said that Hillary got "shtupped," he would STILL be a misogynist and a creep.

The man has clearly shown that he has issues with women. A real class act, that one.
