We’ve been told for years that we have to support the lesser of two evils. Sure, Conservatives might not like McCain or Romney — but you can’t stay home. You need to support the leader of your party.
Now Trump is the clear leader in just about every poll, and this has been true for month and month. And the GOP leaders are trying to stab him in the back.
I want Trump/Cruz, and I will definitely stay home if I don’t get one or both.
Amen
I've threatened that in the past. This time I'm sticking to it.
“Now Trump is the clear leader in just about every poll, and this has been true for month and month. And the GOP leaders are trying to stab him in the back.”
I’m going to say something that might not be super popular on this fine Thanksgiving morning.
I don’t know that I particularly care. And yes, I’m not a Trump supporter. But even if I was, I’d maybe feel the same way. I don’t know.
The bottom line for me is if the GOPe AT THIS POINT doesn’t like Trump and wants to sabotage him, bump him off (methaphorically hopefully not literally), put their guy(s) in, etc., that’s all part of the show at this point. Polls are nice, but with no votes cast, someone who’s pie in the sky can say Lindsey Graham is dead even with Donald Trump since they have the exact same number of votes and delegates here on Thanksgiving- zero. Now, unfortunately for poor Lindsey, he doesn’t stand a snowball’s chance and Trump seemingly does.
But this is still the “jockeying for position” amongst candidates time rather than the “let’s coalesce behind one person” time since we haven’t even made it to the Iowa yet.
I guess it would be “nice” if the establishment was neutral and just content on letting the people decide and let the chips fall wherever they may. But in not doing that, at least they show themselves for who they truly are- and it’s why many are fed up with them.
Well right on. We had one real sample of that. The Republican voters selected Romney as our candidate in 2012. So we had a choice between King Obama or Romney. Didn't really like Romney but I knew who King Obama was. So here we are, One of the most communists sliding nation in the world. Could have stopped it with Romney, but thanks stay home voters. Look what you got. Time to rethink and go for Trump and hope we can save America.
Dittos. You are correct.
