The law against being in power but not Republican.

Good one, it should be against the law for anyone to be in power.
I am busy tracing backwards from my infosec and compusec briefings, through the AFMANs and AFIs, through the DOD policy documents, to try to get to the federal code.
But I see we have here someone else who wants me to be a Republican. Loren, why do you want that?

Isn't there a law that says only democrats are allowed power?

Nah, anyone who can get the Russians to support them can have power.

Because you almost exclusively Devil's Advocate against Democrats.

A lot of people who didn't want Cheato sound like that these days. Especially if they were never particularly fond of HRC or the Dems in general.

Bull. Shit. Say what you will about Jason, but he is very consistent in his Libertarianism.

Feel free to show as such that my statement was bullshit.

How is working for the government - the DoD no less - and being apparently proud of having done so, 'consistent libertarianism'?
It sounds to me like someone sold out their principles bigly.
Sure, defence is one area the libertarians allow might be acceptable for government; but the US DoD is FAR from being that 'small government' 'defend the borders and do nothing else' agency that libertarians claim to be willing to tolerate as an exception to their 'no government' craziness.
How can we ever drown governments in bathtubs if people like Jason keep supporting their vast excesses?

Whatever happened to the Clinton Foundation since people rejected HRC?

It's still around, unlike the Donald J. Trump "Foundation".
Well, some of it is still around. The Clinton Global Initiative is shutting down and the Foundation is having to scale back because donations are starting to mysteriously dry up since Hillary lost her bid to become President.

That as well makes it unlike the Donald J. Trump Foundation, which got shut down for lack of being an actual charitable foundation.

They are still building playgrounds and contributing to children's education.

And what about the Trump foundation? Are they still buying Corporate lawyers and portraits of El Cheato?

Probably rename it the McMahon Foundation as they seem to be the ones actually donating to it.

and "the people" didn't reject HRC. She won the popular vote by almost 3 million.
