You’re going to hold that "football"forever. One mistake on Trump can happen, BUT the American people aren’t stupid enough to follow one mistake with another. ( I hope )
It is the briefcase which accompanies the president of the united states of america that has the really big button to launch intercontinental nuclear missiles.
I remember reading a story about how Joe Biden had his driver “outrun” the car behind him with the military officer who had the nuclear football which posed a national security risk. I suspect if we had a “secret service agent view” of all of the Presidents and Vice Presidents throughout my lifetime (I’ll be 64 this summer), we’d find out all kinds of unsavory things about them. No one is pure. Trump just has no filter so we get whatever he’s thinking at the time “raw”.
That “football” looks to much like a lunch box to be the “nuke football”. Probably has a cheeseburger and fries in it. That or a tuna, peanut butter sandwich!
Bottom line: Both parties are equally corrupt, just in different ways. Many didn’t vote for Trump so much as against Hillary. Right now I am fed up the the hypocrisy. I don’t want to hear another hypocritical word about worrying about the studetns lives or people in general. - A man was knifed to death in Durham 5x as many people are killed by knives as guns! Where is the outrage and the marches? Oh yeah, there is no political agenda. - I am beginning to understand this isn’t about protecting children or people, it is all about political agenda and media ratings. They don’t give a hoot about the students or they would spend the money to make them safe. Already news reports of various ideas turned down because they are too expensive. Money and politics rule the day! And people say they care.
Changing my comment: You self-righteous conservatives think you know it all. It’s going to bite you in the butt someday. I know, to some extent I used to be one.
My only concern is Oprah herself. Yes, we need a Democrat. Yes, we need a woman. My objection to Oprah is two words: Weight Watchers! For all the good she has done in the past, somehow, she seems most interested in weight loss than anything else – her own as well as women’s weight loss in general.
Re-reading the comments, several of you have cited an instance in which Oprah humiliated an atheist! While I have yet to do the research to confirm or deny this, I do find it a bit incredible given the way she has lived her life as a largely irreligious person.

I’d almost believe it. I just hope the military won’t allow the orange-blond headed bandersnatch of a president to ever shoot them off.

We really need a woman president. We’ve been trying to get one one in office since Geraldine Ferraro.

I’d trust Eddie more than Trump. And I love how Flo’s not surprised.

There’s no doubt that Trump was a terrible choice, but so was Hillary- and she had as many dangerous and illegal flaws as he does.

Tie that football to an anchor and throw it over the side. No one should have the power to start a nuclear bombardment on their own.

As much as I want someone else in the White House, I don’t want Oprah. Not after she tried (and failed) to humiliate an atheist on live TV.

Wiley take you opinions to the Editorial section. This is called Comics for a reason and your Liberal views are not funny, nor entertaining.
