There’s a turducken joke here somewhere.

@benshapiro LOL, so true. Political debate is fine, but arguing is never appropriate for the family table. Hate it when people do it. — khemion✌️ (@khemion_agora) November 23, 2016

@benshapiro I tried that. It doesn't seem to make things better. — (((Jay Lampert))) (@MortChristenson) November 23, 2016

Gosh, wonder why.

@benshapiro Totally worth putting down the knife & fork for that one. ?? — Kevin Bush (@DEGoalie) November 23, 2016

Not if there’s pumpkin pie.

There is nothing more important than PUMPKIN PIE!

Maybe after the pie is gone?
