      There are no traditional liberals, like Joe Lieberman, in the Democrat Party, today. He was run out of the party because he wasn't a rabid Leftist. The Democrat Party has been hijacked and consumed by Communists and anarchists.

      The fact is Blumenthal did serve, unlike some who I would imagine you worship and who claimed a deferment for bone spurs but served his country, valiantly fighting to avoid venereal disease. Blumenthal apologized to his voters for previous comments on his service, has Trump ever apologized for anything? He can't even ask forgiveness from Jesus. Some Christian, the Bible is his favorite book that he never read.
