The choices are we sit on our ass and do nothing about Islamist militants or we take the war to them as we have been doing. Either way will see the US being criticized.

This is the most cringe-worthy British comedy I've ever seen. I don't think my fellow countrymen are ready for it.

I think that was implied.

Cotton constantly bringing up the fact that he killed fifty men.

If you are a dyed in the wool liberal who wants to vote for Jill Stein I can see why Trumpists would encourage that.

The Libertarians are on the ballots in all 50 states.
