Bernie Sanders' missing metal is a problem with older voters and the fighting elements of fire, and water might just leave Marco Rubio all wet. And don't ask about Ted Cruz's face reading.

We're going to use Chinese Astrology to pick a POTUS?

Ri-ight. What could possibly go wrong with that?

They just wanted to use the opportunity to equate Trump with a Monkey..

They would have done it with any Republican...

But what about phrenology? How can you tell who will win without analyzing the bump on their skills? Or horns in Hillary’s case.

Yep, I understood it to say that the Earth dog will win, and Shrillary will go down in flames.
