The Power of Lunch

Following the attack on Trump this week, both the current President and the past President have asked the American people to “bring down the heat” of our rhetoric . . . fair enough, you say . . . but how?

I believe it is difficult to yell at somebody when your mouth is full of food!

If you are a Republican, when was the last time you took a Democrat to lunch?
If you are a Democrat, when was the last time you took a Republican to lunch?

No, really . . . when?

The objective is NOT to convert their political allegiance.
The purpose is to show that BOTH Republicans and Democrats are also humans!

It sounds silly and obvious, but when was the last time you yelled at somebody when your mouth was full?
Okay, when ?
