Holy Joe may endorse Trump

Former Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-CT) said he’s thinking of supporting Donald Trump for president, Jewish Week reports.

He’s still undecided but added there are “a lot of us, I think, who can’t feel quite comfortable either way yet.”

Joe Lieberman is the most smarmy, irritating, self-serving, and backstabbing drama queen I ever met in person. And then there was Donald Trump. Luckily I haven't had the displeasure and hope to live out my life outside of his presence.

In some ways, Liebs and Trump are made for one another.

As far as I am concerned he was a Publican when Al Gore chose him as his VP . And that pick - not Ralph Nader - was the reason Gore didn't get enough votes for a clear win.

I didn't vote for them and I never regretted it. A Gore/Lieberman administration would have begat a Publican administration next. Instead we got Obama/Biden. More than a fair trade. Have at it!.

Why can't he jut disappear now. No one cares what back stabbing Joe thinks anymore.
The one silver lining about Al Gore getting the 2000 election stolen from him was if he would've won Lieberman might have actually had a chance to be president yuck!
