None of those other candidates made their case, and stood out from the others. There were WAY too many candidates in this race, and that's on the RNC...There should never be more than 3.
It is absolutely shameful that Trump and his backers are so emotionally entrenched with him that they are willing to throw away that high ground we have occupied for decades.You are absolutely right that this will "prove" the formerly false stereotype of conservatives that liberals have accused us of for a very long time.And where does that leave us, who actually believe in morality, integrity and decency? We have no party that represents our values.
Anyone with a grain of sense could see through him. There was a wealth of information about the man for anyone who cared to educate themselves.
And what has that "High Ground" gotten us?
and yet there are still people fooling themselves into thinking Trump is some unknown quantity who might do the right thing, ignoring his lifelong history
@dfwgator What do you think gutter ground will get us? God is real. We can't elect a man like Trump and expect good things to happen for the country.
Ditto for Hillary.
Yes. And shame on you for promoting evil. BOTH Hillary and Donald are evil.God is not mocked. Excusing criminality and abuse of women is inexcusable by ANY standard of decency or morality.Have you abandoned them all in your defense of perversion??
No. It's just that the sad fact is, One of Them is going to win, you cannot wish that fact away.
Pretty much, since Reagan.
Trump has so corrupted America that the only solution is one that Bret Stephens of the WSJ hoped for last January: He must be defeated so soundly and so thoroughly and by such huge numbers that his idiot followers will never try something like this again.
@musiclady All good points.On another thread I posted a link to a picture of Trump supporters gathered outside RNC headquarters. One of them held a sign that said "Better to grab a p***y than be one."How is it possible that his backers haven't stepped away from him en masse? It's really beyond comprehension. If we've reached the point that people have no problem with sexual predation in a presidential nominee, then I believe the culture is completely corrupted and that nominee is a manifestation of God's judgment. Aside from that, the GOP will forever be linked with Trump and his issues. We've lost the moral high ground; in fact the party has played right into the worst stereotypes promoted by liberals.
Same ol' establishment writers, David French, NRO. Big deal.
Jim Robinson at FR is a prime example. in 2011 he called Trump a fraud and a liar and said that the only people who bought his BS were fools. Four years later, he's gushing about Trump being a patriot and a Christian soldier and posting pictures of Donald photoshopped as George Washington. Until then, I really didn't know the human mind had such a capacity for self-deception.
It was a shock to learn that people on our side could be just as rock-bottom stupid and subject to cultic behavior as the most leftwing Obamabot. But here we are.
