    “Women don’t need men to beat up other men to defend us. We do, however, need powerful legislators to hold abusive men to account and ensure they don’t, for instance, get a lifetime appointment to a court which empowers them to make decisions about our lives.”

      But if he beats up the other bad guy, then all us women will become the property of the presumeably honorable guy. Which is what all women want, to fall under the protectorate of the guy who won the fight for your honor. It’s just science, duh.

      (Seriously, that was a great article)

    I’m suddenly reminded of the South Park episode where Cartman talks about kicking ass for 25 minutes, then bursts into whiny fat-boy tears after one punch in the arm. Anybody remember his opponent?

    Long story short, money’s on Biden.

      Or the one with Wendy, where he talks big in public and begs not to go through with it in private...and then has his ass handed to him.

    I’ve said it elsewhere, but if President Toughguy was in a physical fight, he’d fold faster than Superman on laundry day.

      Wait...are you trying to tell me that this guy, this prime physical specimen, this Tough Guy (tm), wouldn’t come out swinging and emerge triumphant from almost any match-up, anytime, anywhere?

      (we should make a list of people we’d pay to watch him fight - I am not super pumped about this Biden/Trump posturing because it’s ridiculous and beneath the President of Vice, but I’d pay $500 to watch Trump and Bannon in the ring).

      Pretty sure I could kick his ass. A flight of stairs could kick his ass. A par 5 with no golf cart could kick his ass.

      This is a man who believes that people (like batteries) have a finite amount of energy and that exercise depletes it so if you exercise you die sooner. I don’t have any faith in this man having any endurance to speak of or anything more than the muscle mass that’s required to move his flabby old body through the world he’s destroying with his incompetence.

    I don’t mean to brag or anything but since I’ve been listening to the Hamilton soundtrack on repeat for a week I’m KIND of an expert on political duels now.

    ITS THE TEN DUEL COMMANDMENTS!

    Kick his ass, Joe.

      Will Ben Carson be the doctor on site?

      “You have him turn around so he can have deniability!”

      How sad is it that if Ben Carson attended a duel but then said “oh, I turned around and didn’t know what was happening, I don’t even know why I was there in the first place.” I’d probably believe him?

      Among the other reason’s why Biden is better - his plugs, while still obvious, are much better than whatever’s happening with Drumpf’s hair.

      Part of me is sad that our politicians are so unconcern in at least presenting the facade of statesmanship, on the other hand to 70 year old men wailing on each for my amusement is a dream of mine. In my perfect world they have handlebar mustaches but this will do.

      Preach.

      Would I say no to seeing Glass Don knocked on his butt? I would not. But what I really want is adults to act like adults and use their words. If we could just raise the bar above “boys in middle school”, just for a few years, that would be great, thanks.

    Ooh, yeah, Joe, better watch out for the guy who takes a golf cart 100 feet when everyone else is walking. I’m sure he’s saving that energy for an ass-whooping.

      Joe’s right - guys that talk like Trump are full of shit. He’d wimp out and make some dumb excuse. “Oh, my bone spurs are acting up again!”

    C’mon on. You know Trump would show up after Biden is in the ring, incite the crowd, then bring out the guy he paid to fight on his behalf who will proceed to beat Biden into a pulp.

    I like to call Joe Biden “Uncle Joe” because he’s kind of like a fun uncle who does wacky things like spending an afternoon at Costco or buying everyone surprise sandwiches and stuff. He embodies the “guy you want to have a beer with” political prototype. He even has moments of wisdom where he says really great things!

    But then everyone’s fun uncle is not perfect, that’s why he’s an uncle, so you can keep him at arm’s length and his visits are short and fun, and he leaves before he starts embarrassing himself and you by extension!

    Uncle Joe, it’s time for you to go home. You don’t need to fight or fat-shame anyone, no matter how awful and repugnant they are, even if they are known for doing the exact same things. Remember what Michelle said? When they go low, we go high?

    P.S. Please don’t run for president again.

      A friend posted about this yesterday on Facebook, and my reply was this, nearly verbatim, including calling him “Uncle Joe,” saying I loved him but didn’t want him to run for prez, and that stooping to insulting looks/weight is completely unnecessary when a person has given us so many other legit reasons to destroy them. Cheers, like minded internet commenter!

      I was really bummed to see Uncle Joe fat shaming. Uncle Joe needs to find a young, new person with fresh ideas to champion and support, or just go back to kooky Costco photo-ops and stay out.
