    Nope. NK fits you and people like this zombified corpse Arpaio's ideology way better then it does mine.

    Or perhaps for the right it's time for a holiday in Cambodia.

    He was told to cease these detentions and denied that request. His continued profiling led to contempt of court charges where was found guilty, not that complicated.

    Sorry. As a boomer I want to keep sucking up Government benefits for at least another 20 year and leave you holding the bag.

    Thinking someone should not run for office because they are old is wrong. With respect to jobs, age discrimination is both wrong and illegal.

    Did you think Bernie Sanders was too old? Just asking...

    Old people are out of touch with current realities. I'm sick and tire of the two parties keep putting out retirees for their candidates.

    The current reality I see as a baby boomer is paying a lot of taxes and seeing people who do not pay taxes demanding more and more free stuff.

    Yes, barring employment due to someone being older is age discrimination. https://www.eeoc.gov/laws/types/age.cfm

    OK So it was contempt of court and not "ethnic profiling."

    Finally, we've gotten somewhere. You're right. It wasn't that complicated.

    Right on the edge IMHO, and I certainly think he will be in 2020, but 85 ain't 75.... Sure, he's welcome to run, but AZ voters should certainly consider it...

    Also, just looked up recent AZ voting... Trump didn't even get 50% of the vote in 2016...(48.7 to 45.1)... May not be a mortal lock the seat goes Rep...

    Interesting. I wonder what his chances are. The GOP sure can come up with some crazy candidates. Moore in Alabama turned a sure win into a defeat. Aiken in Missouri and Mourdock in 2012 also turned sure wins into defeats not to mention Angle and O'Donnell in 2010. I have a feeling if Arpaio wins the Republican nomination, we'll have a Democratic senator representing Arizona next year.

    That makes him the instant favorite of 90% of Trump's base.

    That's only if Gloria Allred shows up in Phoenix and scrounges up some accusers.
