Elizabeth Warren has been attacking Trump lately:
[Excerpt]
The night of Donald Trumps big Indiana Republican primary win, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., was ready. She tore loose with a series of late-night anti-Trump tweets in which she accused him of racism, sexism, xenophobia, narcissism and a host of other faults.
Two weeks earlier, after being asked about another Warren tweet storm in which she accused him of being "a loser," Trump fired a warning shot across Warren's bow. "Who's that, the Indian? You mean the Indian," he responded, referring to a well-known political controversy over Warren claiming Indian heritage.
The exchanges signal the start of what could be a nasty surrogate side-battle as the general election campaign begins to take shape. Warren is poised to be an aggressive Trump critic, for the Democrats and Hillary Clinton, should she lock up the nomination. And for Trump, who thrives off detecting weakness and pouncing, Warren is a target-rich environment.

Trump responds this evening:
"I hope corrupt Hillary Clinton chooses goofy Elizabeth Warren as her running mate. I will defeat them both."
"Lets properly check goofy Elizabeth Warrens records to see if she is Native American. I say shes a fraud!
"Goofy Elizabeth Warren, Hillary Clintons flunky, has a career that is totally based on a lie. She is not Native American."
However, a cautionary note from the Fox News article:
Warren's office did not respond to requests for an interview. Adam Green of the Progressive Change Campaign Committee, a grassroots organization that raised over a million dollars in small donations for Warren's Senate campaign against Scott Brown, believes that Warren relishes baiting Trump and welcomes renewed scrutiny, should it come.
"The more Donald Trump takes the bait and attacks Elizabeth Warren and thrusts Elizabeth Warren into a national dialogue, the better for Hillary Clinton because the issues Hillary Clinton is fighting for are overwhelmingly popular with Democratic voters," he said.
While Scott Brown definitely disappointed us on other issues, his record on Obamacare is pretty solid. He voted for repeal every time it came up.
Yes, you are correct ~ thank you!
That’s kind of how I feel these days, FSE...
That’s hilarious. I love these names for this fraud!
Scott Brown got elected to stop Obamacare. He opposed it vehemently.
Chicago.
I guess the liberal electorate is really THAT stupid.
That's why they call them "useful idiots".
HEY!
It's not like she's from Downeast Maine.
“Re 5.56, why not just Bite the bullet and just go to the 6.5 Grendel or the 6.8 SPC?”
Too expensive! The 5.56 is just fine. Inexpensive, accurate, etc. The kinks have long since been worked out.
That said the .25 x 45mm by Sharps looks interesting. I may get an extra barrel/Upper and load some up. I wouldn’t hold my breath though.
“Another was a round where the extractor tore the rim and bottom off the case.”
Granted, that’s why they gave the management of Lake City Ammo plant to Federal Cartridge Co. Been smooth sailing since.
I didn’t move around much. As a Radio Relay Repair guy I got to sit atop hills with my parabolic antennas showing the way to my whereabouts. A good defensive posture was a necessity. I never lost any friends. Tiger Mountain ‘68.
re: 5.56
Tay Ninh province 1970. Sapper coming through the wire. Young soldier puts a 5.56 through and through into his side.
Sapper keeps coming.
Young soldier puts M-16 on Rock and Roll and most of rest of mag through same side.
Sapper keeps coming.
Sapper is about 20 meters away.
First Sergeant hits him center sternum with 40mm round. Round hasn’t traveled far enough to arm. No problem. Sapper didn’t even twitch much. DRT
My personal experience; the 5.56 round has little knock down or shock trauma value.
BTW, the 6.5 Grendel is so good that at 400 meters, it has more energy left than a 7.62 x 51 NATO round!
And that is from a weapon that fits the M-16 lowers, template and magazines.
Take a look at a 6.5 Grendel upper from Alexander Arms.
One more thing. The reason the 6.5mm round works so well is it’s “ballistic co-efficient.”
Bill Alexander at Alexander Arms can explain. He is a genius.
I understand your enthusiasm for the 6.5/6.8 but can’t justify the cost of ammo. There are rounds using the 5.56 x 45 case that give better knock down power and can be reloaded from spent 5.56 shells. I think a better option if you want an upgrade. Shot placement is everything even on drugged up sappers. (One tossed a satchel but forgot to pull the cord...lololol scares the cr-p out ya anyway.)
I use Spikes Tactical. Most upper/lower receivers are machined by someone else. Spikes uses LAR in Utah. My lowers are all serialized as SCR-xxxxxxxx. (meaning LAR (CCR) for Spikes (S))
The quality of fit sold me on using Spikes, tho I realize there are other equally precision machined offerings from others. Barrels and bolts are the key to accuracy. Buy the highest quality you can! Right now Spikes uppers are hard to get and holding up a current build. I’ll wait (I like the spider engraved on the top rear of the upper. I infill all my spiders yellow!

A local seller gives great discounts on Spikes (first quality, not 2nds or blems). I’m a happy camper. The whole AR market is full of great parts. CNC machining is the reason. Most use the exact same CNC program that they purchase from? Colt???. There are only a handful of foundries that make the forgings. Chuck it in the machine, run the program, and waaalah.....a high quality base for a new build.....Finishes and markings are a secondary considerations providing merchandizing differentials.
I’ve gone to a LEGAL Class III Krinkov (sic) for my close in work. 7.62 x 39 just always seemed to me to be one of those rounds “that worked.” It’s a POS after 150 meters, but where I am now, a 40 meter shot would be very long. Set it up with NVG and an IR laser.
It’s a great toy.
My next step is to try to get the local Sheriff to swear me in as some sort of limited duty reserve deputy, so I can avail myself of the rights/privileges under LEOSA. Under such, could carry concealed in any state, even NY, NJ, CA, etc. Not on a/c, but that’s ok.
Be well.

LOL! Good point!! Sometimes people do really bear the appropriate name!
Didn’t mean to alarm you. Haha!
That would be the definition of a nightmare.
I see what you did there. ;)
