Put them together in a game of rollerball.

They should do a cage match with Bernie as the referee. I’d pay good money for that.

 

[bwframe]

Hate to see Bernie catch an elbow to the eye...


...not...

Two pistols at dawn. Let them Duel in front of the Capital.

The eight-minute version is a hoot:

 

[Super Bee]

Tim Pool is reporting the Senator is a undefeated retired MMA fighter. Bet the teamster boss did not realize this before he starting talking ****.

Wait, what? A union thug trying to bully someone? And failing.

 

[bwframe]

Easy to forget, in the days of the keyboard, that a real life man might just hold you accountable for your words.

Not if Nikki Haley has her way.

Flamethrowers at ten paces.

The Senator is a member of the Cherokee Nation .
My money is on him !

Prolly better to not social media call-out a guy with a name that sounds like it came off America's Most Wanted.

I know the guys a bad * n all that, but personally I’d rather see my elected officials be more professional than the way this guy acted.

If he really wanted a fight rather than a show, wait for him off site and tell him man to man (not in front of TV cameras) to put up or shut up. He waited for this moment, with an old saved e-mail. WHY WAIT?

I’m sure some here have been in a bar fight. Not one in a class room where you challenge the other guy to meet you behind the gym after school. That’s the way I took the show. JMO

 

[Tombs]

Of course Sanders injects himself into a situation he has no business in.

If they have a disagreement words won't solve, and they're both willing to fight, it should be entirely permissible. Hell, it's more mature than stewing at each other like some awkward teenagers.

You realize that beating fellow elected officials half to death with walking sticks has historical precedence, right?

 

[Leadeye]

Not without some precedent, Preston Brooks beat the tar out of Charles Sumner in the US senate chamber.

Yep. He should have over the dais after smacking that stupid old socialist strictly on principle. He deserves to be smacked around.

Two grown men willing to solve it the way they wanted to. Let them. Not in that room, but outside. At least have some respect for the history of the building. (I was going to say respect for the institution but those clowns made that place overall unrespectable)
