TRUMP FLOATS ELECTION DELAY

[sneakypete]

That is what I am doing... Standing with those who want to stop it now... All y'all are just the SOSDD.

@roamer_1

You are doing NOTHING but standing on the little hill you staked out and stamping your little feets in frustration because you will NEVER admit you were wrong.

[roamer_1]

So you are going to bellyache on here for YEARS, yet sit on your hands when it's time to actually vote?  Hmmm...what do they call that here....oh yeah....   All hat and no cattle. 

Naw... I'll be voting. Just not for your boy. I don't reward utter failure. You want to see 'all hat and no cattle'? Look to 1600 Pennsylvania.

[txradioguy]

"Real Conservatives" is such a greasy term.  Who have you heard say that?

It’s the smarmy way RIV and others mock “principled conservatives” every chance they get.

The people that started pimping for Trump here way back in 2015 made it clear they had and still don’t have any need for people who adhere to Conservatism and Conservative principals. 

There is a distinct difference between Conservatives and Trump fans. 

[roamer_1]

Excellent counter argument to the pie-in-the-sky reasoning from folks who should know better.

Less than three months before the election, two choices for president, no super conservative savior waiting in the wings, Marxism on the march, and some folks are saying sit out this contest.

Boggles the mind.

Doesn't matter which side you vote for - You are getting the same thing. For decades

[roamer_1]

If you are voting for the lesser evil instead of the candidates that shares your principles then you are not demanding more. They own your vote no matter what they do.

If otherwise we need more of you to actually change things. There needs to be enough people that will withhold their vote to force actual change. Herding people in fear is all the GOP has had for quite some time now. They've done virtually none of the things they said they were going to do when in power. It is always the fear of the other side is worse. That is a losing strategy as well evidenced over several decades.

[roamer_1]

Not gonna happen.  Wait until there is a Dem House, Senate and Pres., then we are officially DONE.

Then we're done right now too.

[sneakypete]

The only thing you're stopping forever is your "principled conservatism".  Should the socialists win in November, the only silver lining will be this delicious irony.

@Right_in_Virginia

So true,so true!

I take no pride in the fact my only joy if Trump loses will be in celebrating the destruction of those fools plans.

[txradioguy]

Then we're done right now too.

Exactly.  It's not like The Senate Majority leader...the supposedly "Trump" SCOTUS or anyone in the executive branch are doing anything to stop the Dems march towards Marxism.  They are just trying to manage the damage so as to keep getting elected.

Agreed and telling conservatives to "get the hell out of they way" as if they are superior certainly validates your point.

So you're gonna have a celebration for the destruction of Conservatism?  Good to know.  Thanks for proving my point.

[roamer_1]

When that happens we will officially be in the territory @roamer_1 mentioned earlier.

That's right. And if that's where it has to go, THEN I will be all in. But to vote *FOR* further destruction of liberty at the ballot box? Not going to be me. Y'all are on your own with that.

When the left takes the California model national there will be no silver lining for me. Just an  utter contempt for those who assured me ‘it can’t get any worse’.

[roamer_1]

And that is the answer to what you see around you. Good intentions is not enough.

The GOP owns you.

The lesser evil, better than the other guy, thinking results in a constant slide downward. But you just can't step off the reservation... Which is the only thing that can turn things around if enough people are willing to do so.

That's damn well right.

[skeeter]

So you're gonna have a celebration for the destruction of Conservatism?  Good to know.  Thanks for proving my point.

and Thank you for proving ours.

And on the other end of the spectrum, "Jack Kemp, Mark Sanford and John Kasich are Real Conservatives, and you SoCons need to sit down and shut up!"

Greasy.

@libertybele

What they don't understand...is that what the Dems are selling and what trump sells most of the time are two sides of the same coin.  Tell the people what they want to hear to get the votes, throw a crumb here and there and otherwise keep it business as usual in D.C.

Conservatism isn't an expedient political philosophy.  It's not a stick your finger in the air to see which way the wind blows ideology .

It's a set of principals and the way we lead our life.

They don't get that.

[Right_in_Virginia]

The truth does not stop being the truth when it is ignored. Principled Conservatism cannot be stopped... And the irony is your applause.

I hope your delusion takes you to the end and you never have to explain to your children how you could have been so naïve; so uninformed, so wrong.

[txradioguy]

And on the other end of the spectrum, "Jack Kemp, Mark Sanford and John Kasich are Real Conservatives, and you SoCons need to sit down and shut up!"

Greasy.

Kasich a real Conservative?  Please.  He's as Conservative and legit as Joe Scarborough.

[sneakypete]

So you are going to bellyache on here for YEARS, yet sit on your hands when it's time to actually vote?  Hmmm...what do they call that here....oh yeah....   All hat and no cattle. 

@mrpotatohead @roamer_1

These people,and there are many of them,are stuck on their "John Wayne rugged individualist " fantasy,and there is nothing anyone can say or do to wake them from their dream world. It's comfortable and safe there,and the real world IS scary as hell.

[roamer_1]

If the strategy is failing, that's not my fault.  It's the fault of stupid voters and people that are too damned lazy (or misguided) to get out and vote against the radical left.... and perhaps even the fault of people that advocate "withholding" your vote out of an unrealistic and idiotic conservative purity stance.

You cannot vote AGAINST. You can only literally vote *FOR*. It is you that is misguided.

[Cyber Liberty]

Kasich a real Conservative?  Please.  He's as Conservative and legit as Joe Scarborough.

Agreed, just trying to remind where we've heard that expression before WRT The Postman's Kid.  It's used by lotsa people in the Elephant Tent, to write out and silence the others.

@aligncare

They know better deep down. They just refuse to face it because they feel helpless to prevent it from happening,and it scares them.

They talk about fighting,but what they are all going to do is run for the hills and hide.

This political movement died on the vine 32 years go.

When I make that reference to real Conservatives...I'm thinking of Reagan.  That's the gold standard.
