He's looking into the abyss of Hillary, so to speak. And he's right.
Somehow, a lot of folks have convinced themselves that a Clinton presidency won't be all THAT bad.  I just do not understand how one achieves that level of delusion.

Barring one of the two getting out of the race I doubt there's anything that will be a "game-changer" in the minds of the public.

Unless constitutional/liberty conservatives wake up to the fact that a Clinton win is going to give us very little space to operate in going forward. I suppose some believe we will, somehow,  muddle through against a stacked SCOTUS and a statist fortified set of new inferior court judges. We will be fine with whatever EO's Hillary has in mind. The services rendered in exchange for the Clinton cash already received will completely enhance American security.

And of course she will make very careful distinctions among her political opponents. She would never lump us ALL into the alt.right enemies of the people.

Since none of that will ever happen, Clinton won;t be all THAT bad. We'll be fine. Let's just move along.

BFD.  Abbott endorsed Trump back in May.  He's just trying to boost him, since Trump only leads Hillary by 6 points.

Desperate, much??

 :laughingdog:

You're out of ammo, Sink!   You're ALL out of ammo.

GDP is down to 1.1%  If Hillary does, in fact, win this thing....the USA as Founded...is OVER.

And I don't give a crap what anybody says....at this point, if you aren't supporting Trump...you're supporting Hillary.    OWN IT!

Sadly, I don't believe that.  I believe we're completely and utterly screwed either way.  I believe the America of our forefathers died and went beyond all hope for resuscitation the day Trump won the nomination.  This was our last chance to get it right and we blew it....horrifically.  He IS that bad.  She IS that bad.

She's a socialist kleptocrat and that's about as bad as it gets.

Will Trump really be worse than Bush II? Bush II expanded government in every way but we could have had the yet worse Gore or Kerry.

Pithy....but like most of your spewings, quite uninsightful.  Or you could grow up, take a break from the trump kook-aid (not a typo) and rebut the point...you know, like an adult.

But you won't.

Gov. Abbott just pissed off a whole boatload of Texans. We'll see what kind of price he pays for selling out when it's time for him to run for reelection.

Interesting.  It was Abbott who contacted Cruz to help him in several Supreme Court cases.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Quanell X shoots down Trump endorsement rumors: ‘How the hell could I support that man?’

http://cw39.com/2016/08/26/quanell-x-shoots-down-trump-endorsement-how-the-hell-could-i-support-that-man/

From the article:
New Black Panther Party leader Quanell X spoke out against Democrats, which led some to believe he was getting on the Donald Trump bandwagon.

Why would that lead some to believe he was getting on the Trump bandwagon?  Trump is a Democrat.   Idiots.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

-Ayn Rand-

Of course Trump won't do any of that, because he's a Republican®. And the Republican® brand is always better.

Nope.  Trump's biggest and most jaw-dropping endorsement so far is easily this:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5p5AS5dOtf0

Quanell X has a long and colorful history in Houston.

That was my first thought when I read the headline.

Quanell X is the leader of the Houston New Black Panthers Nation.

Dallas has John Wiley Price

I know. Been watching his antics for decades -- just down the road from me.  I doubt he shares Mr. X's opinion.

Thank you that follow up.  I had watched the previous interview and took it mean he was supporting Trump.  I also listened to Matt Patrick in the followup on the radio and he was sure Quanell was supporting Trump.

When the GOP candidate needs an endorsement in TX, we're F'd.

When the GOP candidate needs a troll over-enthusiastically posting a constant stream of dazzling articles meant to sway opinions on a conservative site, and the troll just looks foolish for doing so, we're F'd.
How to lose credibility while posting:
1. Trump is never wrong.
2. Default to the most puerile emoticon you can find. This is especially useful when you can't win an argument on merits.
3. Be falsely ingratiating, completely but politely dismissive without talking to the points, and bring up Hillary whenever the conversation is really about conservatism.
4. When all else fails, remember rule #1 and #2. Emoticons are like the poor man's tweet!

Seems like, I dunno, giving up rather easily. As a Trump Realist - cr @LonestarDream  I view a Trump Presidency as a beachhead to gain ground on which to fight.

And, I do my best to refrain from despair.  My faith and my morality do not allow it.

And I don't fault you for that view, nor for anyone who's voting his Orangeness because they hope he might be a gnats @ss better than Hillary....I'm just not there and see no way for me to get there.  I truly think they will both be disasters of epic proportions, different perhaps, but disasters nonetheless.  And as such, neither deserves my vote and neither will get my vote.

Possibly in the courts, if he follows up his appointment claims. If he is no more than neutral ground then that will be better then what HRC brings.

Even funnier, from a guy who said:
"If Hillary does, in fact, win this thing....the USA as Founded...is OVER."

So he can say that the country is over if Hillary wins, but if I say it's over no matter who wins, I'm a drama queen?

Gotta love the Trumpeter cognitive dissonance.
