for going into the lion's den are just making an alibi for why your candidate doesn't have the guts to do the same.

Bill Maher had Adam Schiff on his show a month ago and he asked Schiff why he didn't go on Fox and let their viewers know what was happening outside the bubble.

Schiff actually promised Bill that he would go on Fox, but we shall see.

Man, I hope my memory is ok, I think it was Schiff, correct me if I'm wrong.

ps/ How does going on Fox and giving them a bully beat down contribute to their credibility?

Our candidate needs to be tough as nails, that's my only criteria for selecting my choice.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
