One Reason to Vote Trump

If you at a tipping point and just can’t pull the trigger for a candidate, this one reason might persuade you to vote for Donald Trump.  According to The Examiner, “Al Sharpton might ‘get out of here’ if Trump wins.

Well, Hell.  Vote for Trump a dozen times if that what it takes to get Sharpton out of here.  But I digress.  They wrote.

Rev. Al Sharpton told attendees at a Center for American Progress Action Fund event Thursday he would flee the country if Donald Trump won the Al_Sharpton_Parasiteelection, in order to avoid being deported by Trump.

Sharpton, a Democrat, had positive feedback for many of the Republican presidential candidates until he got to Trump.

“If Donald Trump is the nominee, I’m open to support anyone [else], while I’m also reserving my ticket to get out of here if he wins, only because he’d probably have me deported anyway,” Sharpton told attendees, who responded in laughter.

The Turn of a Card

There’s going to be no more phony coin tosses for Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton. From none other than the NYTimes (even a broken clock gets it 2 times a day), “A Deck of Cards Could Determine Some Nevada Caucus Results.

When in Las Vegas … what better way to break a tie in a political caucus than a deck of cards?

EverAfter_Playing_CardsOn Friday, the Nevada Democratic Party released answers to frequently asked questions ahead of the caucuses on Saturday.

The guidelines included the 250 caucus locations statewide…(and) also included what would happen if Hillary Clinton and Senator Bernie Sanders happen to tie on Saturday. Enter the deck of cards.

“In the rare circumstances where two or more presidential preference groups are tied for the loss or gain of a precinct-level delegate and have the same lowest or highest decimal,” the state party says, “groups must draw a single card from a deck of cards to break the tie. High card determines the winner.”
