3. Lieberman will be dirtied up by next Friday

We will take him down and bruise him so bad he couldn't be put in as a dog catcher.

There are reasons why he didn't run for re election for the senate.

6. I'd like to think that Lieberman had the sense to turn it down.

Doesn't he know that his loyalty oath to Trump would compromise him forever?

7. Come on, everyone knows that David Clarke...

David Clarke, the reverse Al Jolson wannabee, Sheriff of Nothingham should truly be the new FBI director.

He'll straighten that mess out...
