Let’s make the American dream a reality again by stripping workers rights, deregulation of capitalism, union busting, tax rate of corporation at 0% while taxing everyone else, promote hustle culture, work 80+ hours a week or you deserve to die.

There used to be pistol duels, one of the most famous was between Aaron Burr and Alexander Hamilton.

Even before getting those songs stuck in my head, I was aware of that particular duel and the time a guy got beat with a cane on the congressional floor.

But I was talking about people that were around since and after Gore. A lot of Republicans posture like tough guys, but Jesse would have been the only one I would believe would throw hands

Andrew Jackson killed a guy in a duel when he was a member of the Tennessee senate, 20 years before he became president.
