2. trump needs to challenge this guy to a duel. ASAP. (nt)

3. Andrew Jackson would have done that

That's his Presidential role model, maybe someone should mention that on Fox. He might just tweet out an acceptable challenge.

Just don't mention that when Jackson showed up, the opponent was also armed, ready, and capable of employing the weapon of choice to satisfy the era's idea of honor

4. None of that "weapon of choice" shit.

It ought to be high-quality fencing sabers, close-in and point guards removed.

6. I believe that if you issue the challenge, your opponent picks the weapon

So after a 3AM tweet, that can be arranged

7. I'll take your word for it.

It's been a while since I participated in a duel, and my memory isn't what it used to be.

So, what would trump's weapon of choice be? Toxic spittle flecks at 5 paces?

5. Beautiful

It is ten times more relevant because the Pan AM Games is our hemisphere's mini-Olympics and it is Latinos now under attack by the Con and his goons.
