Yep, the “new” AG will be the same as the “old” AG - a racist radical with a “get YT” agenda.

Is this satisfactory to you so-called “independents” and “moderates”?

Not to mention to you young white liberal types?

You better start thinking long and hard about the long term implications of PC & racism in political appointments . . . and vote accordingly

It’ll be a hard thing getting someone more dishonest, corrupt, incompetent and completely stupid as was the Holderdorkfelon.

Given that, Al Dullton would be an ideal person who will most certainly know individuals with those qualifications.

I believe him. He and Obama are very close. I wouldn’t be surprised if Al himself is the nominee, in fact.

Scumbags without criminal records can be hard to find but I imagine Sharpton knows a lot of them to nominate.
