Sometimes you need a white bread bland like Pence sometimes.

It's not a question of what you "need." It's a question of who the voters will support.

Personally, I don't see Mike Pence generating much enthusiasm at all ... which is why he wasn't a contender for the nomination even in a year like 2016 when there was a wide-open GOP primary.

The people who elected Trump don’t believe the ‘Russia’ crap. And his popularity keeps rising, even among minorities.

And I haven’t even heard a single of my LIBERAL acquaintances speaking with any concern about ‘RussiaRussiaRussia’.

They’re not paying any attention to this convoluted stuff. The traditional knee-jerk Dem voters will still do that. But some are getting ‘woke’ (can’t believe I used that term...)

If Trump keeps on as he’s been doing, I believe that my confreres among the Independent/apolitical block are going to turn out Yugely! for him.

They want Kasich/Flake or Flake/Kasich in 2020.

Those two men appeal to the same voters in OH-12, Kasich’s old district. Suburbanites.

You are full of shit about the 12th. That is my old district and except for the commie areas in Franklin County, which has lots of deadbeats, welfare whores, illegals and other typical rat voters, it is heavily CONSERVATIVE, even the WOMEN. The rest of the country is not like the commie controlled areas of the Northeast like New York and New Jersey.

Kashit couldn't get elected dogcatcher in the 12th after his antics in 2016. His political career is over. That's why the bastard is so bitter and why he tried and failed to sabotage Balderson to get even with Trump.

I had some Sous Vide....brisket the other night....

Took me more than 60 hours to get to cutting it up and eating it.

Thing is..it was wonderful....and worth every minute waiting for....And so was Donald Trump...

Hillary Clinton was not an option. Not even close....She's a liar and a crook...and so is her "husband"....

Trump is real...and say's what we all want to be said...for the most part.

The RINOS...will continue to sink in the quicksand...if they take that path....

Might as well expose themselves now...They have no idea..what they are showing themselves to be.

55-45 or 60-40, counting those who avoid being counted.

If the GOPe and the dems can be prevented from fubaring the economy, Trump can choose to walk to the finish line in 2020, or he can lim0 to the sideline.

90% plus negative coverage equates to 5% plus deficit from reality.

I think CBA is also the one who posts about how great many of ObamaCare’s provisions are. Makes me wonder why he’s even here.

They really don’t want US to reverse the Bush Plan for North Mexico.

By the way, welcome to Free Republic. You signed up 8n 2016 to be the voice of gloom.

How special.

He should have tuned in to Hannity tonight. Bruce Ohr is the Achilles’ heel of the attempted coup by the Deep State.

Trump will not run, he’s not serious.
Trump will never win the primary.
Trump will never be president.
Trump colluded with Russia and will be impeached.
Etc., etc.

There are two kinds of Anti-Trumpers, Libturds and Krystolites.
I can understand the libturds. Trump is wrecking everything near and dear to them.
But the Krystolites arecjust damn fool elitists who believe the only form of conservativism which is valid is the coffee
Room philosophical nonesense which leads nowhere but gives them a smug sense of entitlement and a kindred form of arrogance they share with their elite liberal counterparts whose approbation they secretly seek.

I have no idea who this clown is, but he’s obviously an extreme left-wing liberal.

I would ignore any such feeling myself. It took me months in 2016 to be sold on the idea that Trump was really serious about running back then!

These people are experts. They have graduated from Ivy League colleges. They have spent their careers analyzing the political situation. Remember - Trump will never get the Republican nomination. What are they putting in that koolaid?

You think the walk away crowd was just Dims....it was not.

Plenty of Pubbie voters....had walked away,..and just did not vote....during McCain's and Romney's wanna be elections....

Those two...were and are pathetic.

The walk away movement is more pronounced..now.

We shall see....

They want Kasich/Flake or Flake/Kasich in 2020.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The reason they want them is they want to keep the borders open and the laws unenforced.

They want that final amnesty that turns the USA into North Mexico and swipes the country from the citizens.

So if PDJT doesn’t run again, then we can dig up HilLIARy or Bernie the Red for a post- internment presidency? Yippee!
