    I can't believe that the Republican Party is more focused on retrabution and even violance rather than discussing what they can do for this country. What this Republican candidate said is shameful.

    Republican House candidate Carl Paladino suggested on a radio show that Attorney General Merrick Garland “probably should be executed” following the FBI search of President Donald Trump’s Florida estate last week, according to The Buffalo News.

    Garland “should not only be impeached, he probably should be executed,” Paladino said in an interview with a Breitbart radio host last week, according to the outlet.

    What's the problem? The punishment of a crime is discussed all the time.

    Stupidity doesn't acknowledge political affiliation, or no affiliation at all. Members of all sides are more then happy to prove that statement on a daily basis.

    You are witnessing a slow implosion of the GOP that began as soon as Trump was elected.

    MAGA's don't talk about any policies, economics or social issues.

    Nothing.

    They are only into the Big Lie and defending Trump.

    This is the Golden Age of the Democratic Party that has just begun.

    I was conversing with my best friend from childhood the other day. A Trumper. He said he couldn't wait for the Repubs to take the House so they could start investigations of Comey, McCabe, Brennan, the GPS Fusion guys, and of course Hunter.
    Meaning........in the absence of policy ideas to help the country he wants bread and circuses for the minions to keep them entertained.

    It's theroretical. If he is found guilty of an impeachable offense then depending on that he might deserve execution. Relax. It's just talk.

    My point is this type of talk is distructive and does nothing to make this a better country.

    It probably makes him feel tough talking like that.

    People say crazy crap and crazy people will respond to it in crazy ways. The solution isn't to censure speech; it's to outspeak it. Simply say why Garland shouldn't be executed if found guilty of high crimes.

    I don't know and don't care. But the discussion of what punishment he deserves if found guilty is a valid discussion to have.

    You say you don't care yet you're talking about it. Why can't you explain which crimes warrant execution?

    This is a discussion forum where mostly speculation takes place. I don't personally have to care about something in order to discuss it.

    Retribution is the best thing they can do for the country. The government bureaucracy needs to be purged of the Leftists partisans that will abuse their authority for political reasons.

    Cleaning those bastards out is literally Congress' job. They represent the people.

    I'm asking you to care about it. I'm asking you to explain which crime you think would warrant execution. Why do you refuse to answer?

    Hmm. . . Off the top of my head I can’t think of any. Let me ask someone who thinks Trump should be executed.

    So you can’t think of any yet you said this
    If there is someone who thinks Trump should be executed, A) what does that have to do with what you said about Garland? And B) anyone who thinks Trump should be executed is a dope.

    I wouldn't go that far with Garland but he is a crook.

    I'm not a big fan of Mitch McConnell but that man is an American hero for keeping this piece of crap off the supreme Court.

    Nope. What is clear is you’re talking out of both sides of your mouth.
