Well, Trump did very well in states that won't be voting for him in November.

I put this post out as a feeler for who here will be responcible for another President Clinton. Chances are there won't be another free election if she gets her way.

You principled souls will seal your own fates by being the by-standers once more.

I heard the same bull at the end of Bill's second term in office.

Primaries do not translate to the general election.  Trump loses in ALL 19 OF THE LATEST POLLS to Hillary.

Yep.  After all, McCain and Romney and Dole all won the GOP primaries.

That is exactly how I see it, XenaLee.

Trump is doing what he's doing, destroying the Republican party and Conservatism from within, in order to pave the way to the WH for his good friend, Hillary, who shares his liberal views.

And, of course, he will scream bloody murder if the rules of the Convention are followed, because he's the ruler of all (in his own eyes) and has no need to follow rules................. and that includes that pesky Constitution...

btw, WELCOME to TBR.  (I LOVE your little kitty avatar!  ^-^ )

I had read somewhere that if Kasich ends his campaign, then by Ohio regulations, his Ohio delegates have to go to the other candidates.  If true, it would explain why he's still around.

Trump again polls nationally worse than both Kasich and Cruz. Having 50% GOP support doesn't win you an election, except in the minds of the Trump crowd.

Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton leads her counterpart on the GOP side, Donald Trump, by only three percentage points in a theoretical general election matchup, according to a new George Washington University Battleground Poll.

Previous polls have shown her with a larger lead over Trump, and the bipartisan Battleground Poll results fall within its 3.1 percent margin of error.

Here are the results of the poll of likely voters:
Clinton: 46 percent
Trump: 43 percent

So how are we doing after nearly 8 years of Obama? Besides being $19 trillion in debt, having a sluggish economy and troops nearly everywhere in the world?

I think the delegates are bound to vote for Kasich on the first ballot even if he drops out.  Then on the second ballot (if he has withdrawn), they are unbound and can vote for whomever they choose.

That's fantastic news, and I'm guessing the other 15 will be shamed into voting for the way their country voted, which was overwhelmingly Trump!  They still have to face these voters every day, and after DISTRUSTED's outrageous VP freak show meltdown today, it's now that much easier to just dump the crazy-pants deluded weirdo and go with the voters.

Shaming? Like a bunch of Jr. High cheerleaders? You realize the rest of the country was not overwhelmingly Trump? If things were proportional to the actual vote, Trump would have about 200 less delegates right now. If he didn't have a field of 16 to start out with he'd have even less.

And then there's those crappy poll numbers against Hillary, especially with women, as they run from the misogynist orange haired clown show.

Hilary wasn't running then but, we did get a 'compassionate' conservative to screw everything up....which led to 8 years of Barry who screwed up even worse.

We heard it with Bill... the Democrats said it about Bush... we read it about Obama (and his *thuper-thecret* 3rd term)... and now it's about Hillary.

It's all baloney designed to stir up the easily panicked.

Hillary has flat out said she will use the Court and this newest generation of little Socialists to go against the only real form of protection we have against tyranny....our guns.

Frankly, if we haven't shown some urgency by now....it's time.

If you don't vote for Trump, assuming he's the nominee then, just like the last two elections, you're essentially voting for the Leftist. Clear enough?





Sadly 2 leftist are running for President.

The difference is that Trump if he were to win would be painted as a conservative and would do a lot of damage to the term conservative. My vote doesn't matter living in RI. But Trump will damage the country as much as the criminal Clinton, in terms of the court we are hosed.

The pub establishment created Trump and now he will destroy them in the process of losing the election.

The shame is that we had a real conservative who made a couple of tactical errors that allowed Trump and the MSM to destroy him.

If you believe Trump wouldn't appoint more conservative justices than Clinton would, you've left behind all sense of reason and rationality. I get that people may not like Trump, but pretending that he and Hillary are the same...politically...is just the worst kind of self justification you could possibly imagine.

It's the simple truth! And all the denial in the world will never change it!

Yes, you have cornered the truth. Right?

Or perhaps you're just believing what you need to believe so you can justify helping Mrs. Clinton take the White House. That's MUCH more believable.

It's not that Bigun can't defend himself and his absolute conservatism, depth of knowledge and years of experience, and his deep patriotism,  but your implication that he wants to "justify helping Mrs. Clinton take the White House" is as ugly a lie as any you have told since you came on this forum to disrupt and destroy.

I don't know if you are paid to attack conservatism on this forum, and frankly, I don't care.  But you are so filled with deceit and false accusations of serious, life-long conservatives that it's astounding.

A vote for TRUMP is a vote for HILLARY.  They are both leftists, both insiders, and both corrupt.

Stop your personal attacks, Mesaclone.  Your attack on Bigun is disgusting.

He's not personally attacking anyone.  Stop your harassment.  It's YOU insulting and calling him names all the damned time to find the need to respond to him.  Stop trying to silence him.  It's BS.

Since you're such a huge fan of the ignore feature....use in on Mesaclone and stop it!

Anybody that is objective can see that you are stalking him.  Why?  So that you can do what you just did here and say, "See?  See?"

Gimme a break.  Mesaclone is a terrific addition to this forum, despite his mistaken initial thread insinuating the possibility of DEM trolls on the board.

After you do, calm down, and come back and edit or delete this post.
