CardinalBacker Posted May 30 Report Share Posted May 30 7 minutes ago, Chester86 said: I read your posts and agree on some things and disagree with some. I guess my one question is (in your opinion) who should we vote for? Third party candidates do not get elected. Kennedy is only going to dilute votes which will benefit Democrats. Write-in votes do not win elections and I’m not even sure they are counted in a presidential election. Many people get on and express views and tell us what is wrong with X, but never give the answer for Y. I am extremely sarcastic and passive-aggressive, but genuinely hope this post doesn’t come across that way. Trump has my vote until someone persuades me otherwise (and I’m a Never Biden). Had another R been nominated they would have had my vote. No worries. My thing is this. Trump was badly flawed. We knew it going into 2016. As an incumbent, there really wasn’t much of a chance to nominate a different candidate in 2020. But after all that happened during Trump’s term, the election loss and fiasco that followed, and everything else that he’s been a part of since… we should have chosen a different nominee in 2024. That’s been my point all along, but that’s not what we did. His followers are very vocal and infect all levels of the Republican Party leadership-especially in local counties and precincts. Enough people decided that Trump is the only person who should be considered to be the eventual R candidate that he cruised to the nomination in spite of everything, purely based on the cult of personality, IMO. All of the signs were there. Trump is in a dead heat with Biden and has been all along, while every other potential R candidate enjoyed double digit leads over Biden. Literally all we had to do is pick someone over Trump and they’d cruise to a win over Biden-but we’d rather lose with Trump than win with someone else. Names like Gary Hart and John Edwards come to mind. Those guys were Dems with a small fraction of Trump’s baggage, but the party still dumped them and moved on… I can’t understand why the Rs have refused to self-police and choose someone with decency… who would also be able to win the popular vote. We (the Rs) should have made DJT an old memory… but force the Ds and independents to do it for us. bullets13 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UT alum Posted May 31 Report Share Posted May 31 2 hours ago, Chester86 said: The reporter for NBC was smiling (unable to hide) as she read the verdicts. A certain poster which sports a red bird probably has already popped the champagne. We’ll never hear the end of this. It is not funny, it is not humorous, and this is really a travesty. A porn star and an admitted perjurer as the two main witnesses can help achieve a conviction for a former president who is the current nominee for his party. I could go on and on - but sadly this is our country’s direction. No, we will not ever hear the end of it, because it’s never happened before. It will be talked about in history, law, and civics classes for the next 250 years of our Country’s history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They caught themselves in their own trap. If Moscow Mitch, Little Marco, and Laughable Lindsey stayed the course after January 6, the GOP would be looking strong right now. Instead, the whole party resembles a smoldering dump. Remember that one out on 418 years ago? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't he pay off a porn star using campaign funds, which is illegal ? He needs to just shut up. He violated 10 gag orders, and talked about the judge and her family. Just Shut Up. A criminal should never run for President. He ticked off a lot of people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
