    He's not getting with reality; he specifically said he disapproves of Der Gropenfuhrer *stopping* the shutdown, and because it makes him "look weak." That kind of thoughtless, macho posturing dooms nations, and bradley is showing himself to be part of the problem, the low-information red-meat base whose thought processes are selfish and small and narrow enough that it appeals to him.

        Would you prefer "The Orange Cockwomble?" "Hair Fuhrer?" "Fat sack of orange Oompa-Loompa shit from hell" as a friend calls him?
