I can never understand why anyone would be on. I sure want a guy who has filed for bankruptcy 3 times to lead our economy.

Four times, but who's counting?

If Trump had just invested all the money his rich dad gave him in the S&P 500, rather than trying to show off what a good businessman he believed himself to be, he'd be worth a lot more today:

Well...I wondered about him knowing law when he said texas didn't have to follow the scotus ssm ruling, so not surprised to hear he's got issues....

Hmmm...I like Joe..

Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. and his associates have begun to actively explore a possible presidential campaign, an entry that would upend the Democratic field and deliver a direct threat to Hillary Rodham Clinton, say several people who have spoken to Mr. Biden or his closest advisers.

From Wikipedia, re: the guy interviewing: "Mark Shouldice, known professionally as Mark Dice,[1] is an American author and conspiracy theorist based in San Diego, California, who argues that the New World Order and secret societies, such as the Illuminati, Bilderberg Group, Skull and Bones and Bohemian Grove, direct human affairs and global politics, particularly those of the United States."

He also claims 9/11 was an inside job.

I like Joe, too. I don't love Delaware being such a haven for credit card companies, which he's certainly partly responsible for, but I like his positions on most issues, and I like that he has never used his Congressional job as an opportunity to line his own pockets.

Although, no joke, I have seen that used on some sites as criticism- "he's been in Congress almost 30 years and he's not filthy rich! We can't have a President who didn't get use his Congressional job to get rich!"

And the speech he gave to families who lost sons and daughters in Iraq was a masterpiece of empathy:

I put no stock in him or what he promotes. This is about the people in the video.

Are you more concerned about him than about voters who would agree to the repeal of the Bill of Rights?

I love Joe.

Hasn't Patriot Act just about done that already?

But a lot of people obviously do, as he's got quite the YouTube following. And those folks all get the same you do, too. I'm less interested in a handful of people not knowing what the Bill of Rights is than I am a guy spouting off 9/11 was an inside job to thousands of eager listening fans.

But hey, I'm the sort of nerd who can name all 9 SC justices without googling, so I perhaps offer a little more slack to the average American's civic ignorance, because I'm so accustomed to it. Let's be honest; he could have sought out Ted Cruz supporters and gotten exactly the same video footage, except that all of the people on it would have been white men. It's not that Clinton supporters oppose the Bill of Rights; it's that people support candidates over policies. Because they seem to have confused politics with sports.

For example, here is Samantha Bee in 2008, talking to GOP conventioneers about Sarah and Bristol Palin.

And in 2012, talking about how they oppose abortion under all circumstances, but it's totally cool that the guy they want for President doesn't:

I laughed. And then I cried.

i said hey, i know that name. that guy was famous in mexico, wasn't he president?!?! lol he was impressed, by husband said i'm a nerd. can't argue with that.
