republican chess

Unlike the dirty liberal game of chess, republican chess is played by only the bestest group of people, American conservatives. Simply it is a game of checkers where double jumping more than two pieces (something a libtard would do) is prohibited. Liberals won't want to play this game as they can't win without cheating.
A- Want to play chess?
B- No, that's a filthy liberal game. Let's play republican chess. It's just like chess except Hillary Clinton won't try to play winner.
