TP Trump tweeted about the duel at 2:43 AM Friday morning, and confirmed the challenge to press later in the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t have to prove anything to anyone,&#8221; TP Trump said loudly. &#8220;Everyone knows, and you can check this, I&#8217;m the best at dueling. But then I see this documentary about dueling on Disney Plus, lot of music in that documentary, actually it was very odd, very strange, I didn&#8217;t really care for it myself, but I hear it&#8217;s very popular, so I give it a shot, and it&#8217;s telling me that Aaron Burr is best at dueling, which actually, you know, it&#8217;s not, so I thought, and you know this, you know, you can ask yourself and you&#8217;ll tell you, muffins for breakfast, or lunch, doesn&#8217;t matter, and they won&#8217;t let me shoot Joe Biden, I mean, come on people!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany then told both reporters that were allowed to the press conference that duels are &#8220;very normal&#8221; and &#8220;in the constitution,&#8221; and that you are definitely able to bring whatever weapons you want to duels these days, including the full force of the US military, up to and including nuclear weapons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;He&#8217;s going down,&#8221; said Tim Burr of Peacham, VT. &#8220;Ain&#8217;t nobody gonna challenge me to no duel and walk away. All I got to do is stand behind a ramp and he&#8217;ll be done. I got a 16-pointer last season. I ain&#8217;t worried.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The public has been assured that both duelers will be more than 6 feet apart and wearing masks, except for Trump.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>WASHINGTON &#8211; Temporary U.S. President Donald Trump has announced this week that he is challenging a descendant of former Vice President Aaron Burr to a <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"http:\/\/thewinooski.com\/index.php\/2020\/08\/07\/trump-challenges-burr-descendants-to-a-duel\/\" title=\"Trump Challenges Burr Descendants to a Duel\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4951,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"spay_email":"","footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true},"categories":[4],"tags":[41],"coauthors":[91],"class_list":["post-4950","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-national","tag-washington"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"http:\/\/thewinooski.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/TWFI-2020_08_07.jpg","jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p8JVRF-1hQ","_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/thewinooski.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4950"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/thewinooski.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/thewinooski.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thewinooski.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thewinooski.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4950"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/thewinooski.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4950\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4952,"href":"http:\/\/thewinooski.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4950\/revisions\/4952"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thewinooski.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4951"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/thewinooski.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4950"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thewinooski.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4950"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thewinooski.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4950"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thewinooski.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=4950"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
