Title: TRUMP SOARS IN NEW POLLS: +26 PA...+34 CT...+38 RI...
Post by: AnybodyButaDem on April 25, 2016, 03:24:48 pm
Looks like Sneaky Ted's delegate buying is having an adverse effect on him with the actual voters he doesn't give on thought about.

Think of how damaged a candidate he'd be if Trump wins a majority of the vote in PA, yet Sneaky Ted and his buddy Kasich conspire to buy 70% of the delegates.  Hillary would be Cruz by 20 points by the time Sneaky Ted is done explaining his flip-flop to the GOPe.

Or, for the fact that an already-rigged primary in New York was used as a media cudgel to convince people the race was over.

Nice try Carling. Trump could win by a landslide in PA and still won't get more than 17 delegates out of 71 delegates. The party runs the Primaries. If it is so unfair, the Orange Baboon could always go back to the Patriot Party.

Yeah, that's the point of this thread.  Sneaky Ted is only making GOP voters more disgusTED with him as he buys delegates.  Funny thing is 2/3 of unbound PA delegates now say they will go with the will of GOP voters. 

Sneaky Ted is destroying his future as a national politician by playing GOPe games and aligning with a liberal Democrat like Jesus H. Kasich.  Even if he manages to buy a brokered convention, many GOP voters will sit this one out as he's proven to be no different than McRomney in using the organizational power of the GOPe infrastructure.  The pathetic thing is that McRomney at least appealed to voters and had their support.  Sneaky Ted has turned off all but his loyal sycophants with his flip-flop on being Mr. Outsider to now begging GOPe delegates and leadership for help.

He's so pathetic.

That's a pipe dream, as a good number of the delegate candidates have already pledged to vote as their district votes. Cruz will steal some, though he has very little support among actual voters...a fact you should be embarrassed by, rather than touting. But, if you're candidate is unethical I guess it follows that his supporters would be no different.

Sneaky Ted has the gall to say Trump is "betraying Americans" at the same time he's trying to take away the voice of GOP voting Americans by trying to buy delegates and have them go against the will of GOP voters.

It doesn't get much more hypocritical than that and that his supporters follow him as he goes from the outside candidate to aligning with the liberal Kasich says a lot about their own integrity.

Ted should win at least 27 to 28 delegates based on my analysis of the slate by CD.

He may end up with even more as his 'uncommitted' delegates weigh in.

Follow the above link to see my anaysis.

So vote tomorrow , Cruz supporters!!!

A lot of people might jump off the Brooklyn Bridge if Trump tells them to.  Doesn't mean I will follow them.  Trump is a buffoon, a bully and an idiot.  He runs a simplistic campaign with mobster tactics.  If he is the nominee, he will lose and his supporters will deserve all the blame.

Yes because we're all stupid followers incapable of independent thought.  Hey, Cruz is now with the GOPe after running against them earlier.  Yet here you are following Ted into the arms of the same losers who brought us McRomney!  Ironic, to say the least.

You mean like courting delegates by bribing them in a state where he'll be lucky to top 22%?

Learn some personal responsibility.  You sound like any of the victim groups propped up by liberals, blaming others for your own failure.  If Cruz steals the nomination and loses, which he will in a landslide after his tactics and flip-flop back to the GOPe during this primary, does that mean I should blame you Sneaky Ted followers, even though I'll vote for the loser because I always vote GOP?

Yep, Cruz' mob tactics of buying delegates are sure earning him voters in PA.  What's he at now, 20%?  He'll get smashed in a general election after subverting the will of voters in very large states.  He and his followers will have earned everything that would come their way.

I fought in Iraq (Army), and I don't find the image's use disrespectful at all. It makes a point, that voting is sacred and that politicians who play manipulation games to steal them are unworthy of the Presidency.

That doesn't matter because musiclady apparently is the judge of everyone's character on this board, with the sole criterion being if you support Trump or don't support Trump.  Trump support bad.  Anti-Trump support good.  Yet it's Trump who is the simpleton.   :whistle:

Cruz is not buying delegates , especially in PA.  The slates which will be voted on tomorrow, were worked hard for by the grass roots supporters for months.

Trump got burned in WI because he trash talked Walker.  Its the trash talk that has me concerned if Trump is the nominee.

Cruz hasn't bought votes anywhere.  The Trump followers believe his lies that Caucus voters aren't people because they need to be perpetually disgruntled because things aren't "fair" to Donald.

Cruz is playing by the rules.

Trump doesn't have a clue as to what the rules are.

Yes, Sneaky Ted went hat in hand to the GOPe begging for help in stealing delegates even in states he has no chance of winning.  The GOPe is happy to help because their goal is to keep Trump from 1237.

Meanwhile, Trump earns his delegates at the ballot box.  I can imagine the outrage from you anti-Trumps if the roles were reversed.  There seems to be a very hypocritical and deluded groupthink from the anti-Trumps that Crusich the Loser has any chance of winning in a general election.

And since you cannot get your mind wrapped around the fact that Trump has never gotten more that about 1/3 support anywhere other than NY you likely never will.

Hint for you! There are NOT going to be any democrat crossover voters at the convention in Cleveland serving as delegates.  There will only be republicans who have paid their dues working in the party at that event!

When called, they can never provide data or sourcing. Sink's latest one about Trump underperforming the polling in EVERY state other than NY was a doozy...but it doesn't slow him down. I guess just making stuff up as you go is the last resort when you've lost an argument on the substance.

The disappointment, that Trump is taking it to the finish, even when they double-gang up, compare notes, conspire, etc.

Disappointment, despair, disapproval, denial, denial and more denial.

I believe the purple finger is entirely fine. I served in our military. The imagery is great, I approve.

They can't see what they can't see. Blinders. But many see in Cruz, a hyper-ambitious politician, lying, cheating, anything to get ahead.

And all the while shooting off at the mouth like a revival sermon-lecture style. Talking down to us. (We are stupid, uneducated, even those of us with multiple and graduate degrees, professional qualifications)

Only Cruz knows best. A few caucus voters will know best, agree with him. The great unwashed masses, the majority of us need not speak, need not vote.

It's a cute way to demean us and accuse us of not thinking as individuals, which we of course do.

You support a lying Progressive with the emotional maturity of a 6 year old, who pretty much hates anyone who disagrees with him, and you accuse Cruz of "talking down" to us.  That's amusing.   I'm pretty sure you have no room to talk about "blinders."

That seems to be your "go to" traits here on the board. I'm sure you are a very nice person in reality, but like your comrades you've been consumed by a fervor that leaves no room for reasoned discussion, common sense, and...yes...the dirty word...compromise with your fellow Republicans/Conservatives.

Its unfortunate, because no party can survive if a large portion of its members are too self important...too morally superior...to accept when the party nominates someone who isn't "there guy". Your way or the highway...probably feels good...gives you that sense of "we're better than you and won't compromise our superior values"...but in reality its just simple arrogance and ego. Qualities reflected quite profoundly in your favored candidate...and admittedly, in all presidential candidates to some degree.

The "anger" quality that you assign to Trump and his follwers is the very trait you display continuously in these discussions. Its breathtakingly hypocritical and this kind of self-blindness has become the hallmark of the hard core anti-Trump Cruzians. Most of you are completely. and astoundingly, unaware that you are simply projecting your own shortcomings on to the candidate you oppose...all the while cheering on an unlikeable, condescending, morally pompous, evangelist who has no appeal to anyone outside of his small sect of the "Chosen".

This is the funniest thing I've read in a long time.

We're projecting about Trump because WE are  bigots, misogynists, love to make fun of handicapped people, want to order the military to kill innocent women and children, we love to insult anyone who disagrees with us, and we're keen on violence.  Trump does none of these things, in your mind.

Then--according to your own logic--YOU must be unlikable, condescending, morally pompous and you  have very little appeal outside your own circle of friends.

Have I got that right?

No, I'd say you got it about 10% right. And trust me, I'm being generous.

As for killing women and children, can you name a single president who has not ordered attacks resulting in the deaths of women and children? Or are you one of those idiots who thinks war is a sanitized affair with no collateral casualties? No one, especially Trump is calling for targeting civilians, but he is clear that we must go after leadership targets whether or not they are hiding amongst their families or not. Perhaps you think FDR was a war criminal...and George Bush as well?

Your logic...well...its missing.

Its breathtakingly hypocritical and this kind of self-blindness has become the hallmark of the hard core anti-Trump Cruzians. Most of you are completely. and astoundingly, unaware that you are simply projecting your own shortcomings on to the candidate you oppose...all the while cheering on an unlikeable, condescending, morally pompous, evangelist who has no appeal to anyone outside of his small sect of the "Chosen".

I have no "comrades" on this forum.  That is your first, of many errors.

And you, o elitist condescending one, have no room to talk about anything.

Your last line indicates what's wrong with you.  You, and a few others, attribute recognition of Trump's moral depravity as being "morally pompous" and "evangelist."

It apparently bothers the few of you that your hero is morally bankrupt, so your recourse is to attack those of us who point it out.

It's not working.  None of us is "pompous," and Trump is truly a degenerate.  Them's the facts, arrogant one.

Sorry to burst your little bubble in this sermonette you just preached.....

A couple points and a final question to ascertain your level of rationality:
1) As a former Army Captain and current blue collar guy...elitist is a new label for me. I kinda like it.
2) My hero's never have been and never will be politicians...perhaps Abe Lincoln is the only exception.
3) You love terms like degenerate and morally bankrupt...what happened to "judge not lest ye be judged?" More importantly, you are demonstrating a hint of religious fanaticism here...unless you know them personally, you have no idea if Cruz or Trump are, in their heart of hearts, more or less "moral" than one or the other.
4) How old is life on this planet?

2) If Trump is not your hero, why go to such great lengths to falsely accuse those who see him for what he is?  A degenerate.
3) I don't "love" any term.  I use words that are accurate.  Bragging about committing adultery with married women is degenerate, not just to Christians, but to anyone who values commitment and decency.  He also debases women with his language and behavior.  I realize you're not a woman, but I would think that as someone who thinks he's better than the rest of us, that would matter to you.  Guess his debasing of women is A-OK with you.
4) I have no idea.  And you don't either.  Eventually we'll both find out and realize it doesn't matter, one way or the other.  But your asking does reveal yet another part of your condescension.

Condescension and anger.

That seems to be your "go to" traits here on the board. I'm sure you are a very nice person in reality, but like your comrades you've been consumed by a fervor that leaves no room for reasoned discussion, common sense, and...yes...the dirty word...compromise with your fellow Republicans/Conservatives.

Its unfortunate, because no party can survive if a large portion of its members are too self important...too morally superior...to accept when the party nominates someone who isn't "there guy". Your way or the highway...probably feels good...gives you that sense of "we're better than you and won't compromise our superior values"...but in reality its just simple arrogance and ego.

Oh, I do have an idea. A very good one, based on the work of...well...every modern scientist with any credibility whatsoever. But lets move on from that...as I'm aware you will simply evade giving a real answer.

As for condescension, look hard in the mirror and you'll see it in action. You don't simply go after Mr. Trump, you have called those of us who support him a whole range of "condescending" terms. Do you deny this?

No, I'd say you got it about 10% right. And trust me, I'm being generous.

As for killing women and children, can you name a single president who has not ordered attacks resulting in the deaths of women and children? Or are you one of those idiots who thinks war is a sanitized affair with no collateral casualties? No one, especially Trump is calling for targeting civilians, but he is clear that we must go after leadership targets whether or not they are hiding amongst their families or not. Perhaps you think FDR was a war criminal...and George Bush as well?

Your logic...well...its missing.

I notice you didn't answer my charge that if WE are all those things we despise in Trump, then YOU are all those things you hate about Cruz.  I guess you realized you don't really have any idea what "projection" is.

Trump said we must kill the wives and children of terrorists.  He didn't say anything about terrorists hiding among them.  He backed off, of course, after the military said they would refuse such orders.  But it's still a disqualifier that a presidential candidate would propose something like this.

You can call it what you want.  Party loyalty only goes so far.  Where it does not go for me is when the party nominates someone whose political predilections are indistinguishable from those of the other party.  And his words by themselves count very little because he has already stated in his own book that he uses creative hyperbole - his euphemism for lying - during negotiations because it's all about making the other guy feel like he got what he wanted, whether or not he actually got what he wanted. 

Based on Trump's own past, and taking into account his admitted propensity for lying to get what he wants, I see no reason to believe that his Supreme Court picks will not be just as liberal as Clintons would be.  And given his admitted penchant for bullying and authoritarianism, I see no reason to believe that he will not continue Obama's unconstitutional use of executive orders to get by fiat what he cannot get by constitutional vote of Congress. 

In short, I will not vote for Trump in the primary, and I will not vote for him in the general, because I will not vote for a liberal, whether openly liberal like Clinton or in sheep's clothing like Trump.  "Never" means never.

The answer is that you're drawing a moral/intellectual equivalent...where none exists. I am not fanatical...because I can support Mr. Trump but will STILL vote for Mr. Cruz if he wins the nomination. "Taking my ball and going home" if your guy loses...THAT is the hallmark of emotional immaturity, and THAT is why it is so clear that you are simply projecting your own issues towards Mr. Trump.

As to Mr. Trump's premise, you simply aren't comprehending the...rather obvious...context. That being our current approach which won't even hit a convoy of ISIS supplies because we might kill civilian truck drivers. Trump's point is that we cannot avoid, and must not establish military policy that precludes, killing civilians (including family members of ISIS leaders) who are in the way of taking out the ISIS command and control. That does not mean we don't do our best to avoid such an event, but it goes to a clear policy in which taking out their leadership is the highest priority. That is how a war MUST be fought.

And you didn't answer my question.

Do you think FDR and George W Bush were war criminals?

If that were demonstrably true, you'd have a point.

And I understand, you can only justify your "neverTrump" position by pretending there are no differences between Hillary and Trump. But honestly, that is a ludicrous and indefensible position.

Hillary and Trump hold different positions on nearly every important issue. Would argue that he's not a pure Capitalist at the very least? Get serious, because his upcoming opponent is essentially a Socialist. No comparison between the two on that topic alone could conclude they are "the same".

Does Hillary support a Wall?
Does Hillary support "Scalia-like" nominees to the Supreme Court?
Does Hillary support the repeal of Obamacare?
Does Hillary support increasing the size and strength of our military?

No honest person can claim these two candidates do not differ on a whole host of issues. I realize you're going to play the "he used to be a liberal supporter" and " we can't believe what he says" card...but that's a copout. Any GOP nominee will be tied to his platform AND his party for political support in office...he won't be able to stray far from his stated positions, even if he were so inclined. So you need to drop this strawman stuff and look at his actual, and current, positions.

Not voting for Trump is not voting for Trump.  It's not a matter of "taking my ball and going home." I am not obligated to vote for anybody.  Hell, over 100 million voting age Americans will not vote for anybody in November.   At least I will vote for Republicans in down-ticket races in my state. 

So try your attempt at shaming on somebody else.  And you still indicate you have no idea what projection is. 

Trump never qualified his remarks, made in a debate, about not killing innocent women and children apart from their terrorist relatives or compatriots. That's why the military had to step in and say they would not obey such orders. 

Of course FDR and Bush were not war criminals, but Trump would be if he ordered women and children to be directly killed as he did in the debate.

You can spin tall tales all you want, clone, but it doesn't make them true.   

Your only recourse against the TRUTH about Donald Trump, his Progressivism, his desire for big government, his total disregard of the Constitution, his degeneracy, his debasement of women, his pathological lying, is to attack those of us who see who he really is, and care  enough to sound the alarm and hope people heed.

We don't want a Big Government Progressive to be President.  We don't want Trump to win the nomination because Hillary will destroy him in the general, and we don't want a completely dishonorable man to represent the Republican party in this election, or any other.

Sorry if our persistence in telling the truth bugs you, but your whining and spinning isn't going to stop us.

#NeverTrump means Never Trump.

FDR ordered the deliberate bombing of non-military targets across all of Japan...including the dropping of two Atomic bombs. So, by your own criteria for Trump, FDR was a war criminal.  The truth is, in bombing civil targets in Japan he was doing the right thing. As for Trump qualifying his remarks, he made numerous statements doing so...which you seem to want to ignore for some self-serving reason.

And another point, the military did not say it would disobey a Trump order. Some military leaders clarified that they would not obey an unlawful order...a position every officer in the military has ALWAYS been obligated to support. Bombing civilians in the way of hitting command and control targets, as Trump advocates, is not a unlawful order. Therefore, no conflict between President Trump and the military exists on this issue.

You are right on not being obligated to vote for anyone. As are all Republicans. But its also true that if we don't all vote for WHOMEVER our nominee is, we will lose. So ultimately, you WILL choose between Clinton and Trump...either by voting or not voting...and your choice, along with millions of others will put in the position of being responsible for the outcome. So while you have no obligation to vote for anyone, you cannot escape the obligation to bear the consequences of that choice.

But really, its less about any obligations than it is about common sense. Common sense dictates that a party...or conservatives more broadly...vote for the least liberal available candidate. And only a total fool, or someone trying to justify a childish need to "take their ball and go home" could argue that Hillary is not WAY more liberal than ANY of the potential GOP nominees.

Your misstatement re FDR and dropping the bomb is so totally off mark it makes the rest of your post meaningless.  Are we at war?  Is the DNC the Japanese?  In my hypothetical?  No.  This makes comparing apples to oranges look like comparing cloned fruit to itself. 

Furthermore, even if we apply it, the aggressors were the Japanese, and in my hypothetical I see no objection to my using the gun to kill the terrorist, even if he has a companion who egged him on but wasn't armed and would not have done the shooting himself. 

Apples.
Oranges.

Classic liberal thinking.  Not taking responsibility for your own actions, and blaming those who don't think exactly like you think.

Using that logic, do I get to blame you for foisting the losers McRomney on the rest of us, so you're 100% responsible for 8 years of Obama.  I even voted for those losers, unlike you who is taking your 4-square ball off the schoolyard and running home crying.

After today, almost 4 million more votes in the primaries than any other GOP candidate.

Look, we know that the truth doesn't matter to you, anyhow, after your claim about him only winning NY with over 40% of the vote.  Nice how you ran away from that false claim.  Some of us noticed.

After today, almost 4 million more votes in the primaries than any other GOP candidate.

Look, we know that the truth doesn't matter to you, anyhow, after your claim about him only winning NY with over 40% of the vote.  Nice how you ran away from that false claim.  Some of us noticed.

Oh but the TRUTH is the ONLY thing that matters to me!

Many more have voted for someone other than Trump! MANY more and a good many of them are like me! #nevertrump

We'll see how much those votes are worth at the convention!

I haven't "run away"  from anything ever and won't now!

Only genuine REPUBLICANS are going to be voting at that convention.

Primaries.

Just wait for the general, DC.  He won't win a single one of those states.

Yes, a panic is setting in. The "Chosen" boy going down.

A new poll just came out from NBC...Sink...has Trump at 50% amongst Republicans for the first time. Guess where Cruz is...almost exactly half of that. If the man is getting crushed 50-26 amongst Republicans, how in the heck would he do better with Democrats thrown in the mix?

And if Trump loses because you and your ilk sit things out, then the responsibility is yours 100%. Conversely, if you and your ilk supported him by voting and he still lost....THEN the responsibility could be said to rest with Trump and his supporters. Quit shirking your role in this...you can vote for whomever you choose, but don't pretend you are not part of the problem. You are.

My last word on this:  YOU and your fellow Trumpkins foisted this dolt on the rest of us so it is YOU who will bear the consequences of YOUR choice, not me.  We told you and told you he could not win and he cannot win.

Well, Trump's support came from those wanting to destroy the GOP.  I'm inclined to now grant that wish.

You folks must know how ridiculous you sound.

Trump supporters want to GROW  the party by bringing back the Reagan Dems and drawing in libertarian leaning Independents. That IS the future of the party, without which it will have no future. What's destroying the party is this right wing, establishment cabal that wants to retain power and push antiquated moral doctrines on a modern society. The right wing is intent, at the presidential level...less so at state level, on continuing to shrink the party to an insular group of super-religious, evangelistas who can bask in their own moral superiority. Not only is that against the grain of our Founding Father's, its a ludicrous strategy for EVER winning a national election. The question is... How's that been working out for ya?

Oh, and Trump is a registered Republican and one of the world's elite Capitalists. It takes a whole lot of crazy to make that analogous with a Socialist like Hillary Clinton.

You certainly have an interesting, albeit, to use your own words "ridiculous" perspective.

I understand you much more fully now.  You want to attract leftists without moral standards to the Republican by silencing us evil Christian conservatives.  You want to elect politicians without integrity, without morals, because of your vitriol against people who, like the Founders, expect character and integrity in our leaders.

I also see that you are ignorant about what Donald Trump stands for and believes in........ that he supports the Dream Act, government controlled health care, unconstitutional power in the executive office, punishing the rich, and a plethora of other Progressive policies.

I, however, think the most ironic part of your rantings, is that you don't seem to mind that Trump debases women, and that 75% of women can't stand him.   I guess you want to "grow" the Republican party with all sexist men, eh?

So did Cruz's support.  Then when he went begging back for help from the GOPe, allied with GOPe poster boy Kasich, and suddenly only the Trumpkins were anti-establishment.

Leftists? I said Reagan Dems and libertarian leaning Independents. How do you Leftists from that?

No idea where you come up with this stuff...its like you want to slip on the martyr apparel and pretend your religious views are under siege. Sound the alarms! Let me assure you, your religious freedom is not under assault from me...or Mr. Trump for that matter. I don't want my president to preach, nor my preacher to lecture me on politics...is that what you find threatening? 

My view is akin to the founders, mixing government and religion does harm to both. I want everyone entirely free to practice their own moral code in their lives without government interference. For example, I'm disgusted that a baker would be required to make a cake for a gay wedding. That's totally unacceptable and a violation of religious freedom. Ditto for making groups pay for abortions, albeit indirectly, under Obamacare. Those are egregious violations of religious liberty in my view. The point I'm stumbling towards, is that I'm not arguing from anything that remotely resembles a liberal position. My perspective is to keep government and religion apart whenever possible....they are not good partners. The Founding Father's fully understood this.

And Trump doesn't debase women...he has a sharp wit that can often debase ANY subject it goes after, but he in no way singles out women more than he does men. Likewise with various groups the Dems want the country to be divided into. I'm not a fan of that side of Mr. Trump, but I'd prefer candid and a bit crass...to controlled and just repeating talking points from a teleprompter.

It seems you buy into the liberal approach that asserts if you insult one woman, you've somehow insulted all women and are now a misogynist. I guess that would make you a female chauvinist as you've attacked one man...Mr. Trump, and his male supporters. Right?

Trump is an equal opportunity insulter...though I'll acknowledge that women seem to find that more bothersome than most men do. But then again, women tend to be classier and smarter than we fellas...I know this, as I have a wife THREE daughters (all Trump supporters...though the 11 year old can't vote just yet =)

You really should study up on the Founders more, Mesaclone.  You don't know what you're talking about when you say they wanted to separate morality and character from American culture.

As for 'religious freedom'...... it's under assault by the left.  The freedom to practice one's religion....... even to speak about morality in churches........... is being taken away.  Now I can see that you, individually don't care because it seems like you'd like us to be silenced, but that's neither here nor there.

And the silliness about Trump's only attacking one women and somehow my noting his misogyny is "liberal," well.. that's a desperate reach and as illogical as anything you've said so far.  He has a history of sexism.  He has a history of debasing women.  He has a history of abusing women for his own gratification.

Presenting him as some sort of political Don Rickles is just dumb....... and shows a total disregard for women in general, not just those whom he has specifically and crudely attacked.

At any rate, 75% of American women don't want a misogynist as President, and I'm one of them.

And whether you like it or not, I'm going with the Founders and the importance of recognizing God's gift of freedom, life, and opportunity.   The farther away we get from integrity and morality, the farther away we get from what this county was founded on.

You can say whatever you like against Christians and morality.  It shows a fundamental ignorance that can't be corrected on an internet forum.

So, carry on, if you wish.  I'm done with this 'conversation.'

Yep.

According to the Far Right, we are all angry, tree-hugging, big government, homosexual lefties out to destroy the GOP.
According to the Far Left, we are brown shirted Nazis, bigots, racists and members of the He-man Woman Haters Club!

Do you think the Far Righties ever wonder just what the Far Leftees are thinking...and vice versa? They certainly can't both be right. Right?

Truth is, as usual, that they are both very wrong and are equally blinded by a need to adhere to the orthodoxies of the extremes in American politics. What Trump followers really are, is pragmatic and patriotic...with a little nod to Libertarian values. We want a government that respects the peoples exercise of their own religious values, but one that does not seek to advance any particular religious establishment or sect.

The extremes are correct on one count...we do have anger...anger over the fact that both parties have left the middle class behind in their war of rich vs poor. WE are the ones serving in the armed forces. WE are the ones paying the Lion's share of taxes. WE are the ones running small businesses and getting murdered by Obamacare.

And lastly, WE are fed up and we're not gonna take it anymore.

As for 'religious freedom'...... it's under assault by the left.  The freedom to practice one's religion....... even to speak about morality in churches........... is being taken away.  Now I can see that you, individually don't care because it seems like you'd like us to be silenced, but that's neither here nor there.

And the silliness about Trump's only attacking one women and somehow my noting his misogyny is "liberal," well.. that's a desperate reach and as illogical as anything you've said so far.  He has a history of sexism.  He has a history of debasing women.  He has a history of abusing women for his own gratification.

Presenting him as some sort of political Don Rickles is just dumb....... and shows a total disregard for women in general, not just those whom he has specifically and crudely attacked.

At any rate, 75% of American women don't want a misogynist as President, and I'm one of them.

And whether you like it or not, I'm going with the Founders and the importance of recognizing God's gift of freedom, life, and opportunity.   The farther away we get from integrity and morality, the farther away we get from what this county was founded on.

You can say whatever you like against Christians and morality.  It shows a fundamental ignorance that can't be corrected on an internet forum.

So, carry on, if you wish.  I'm done with this 'conversation.'

Why do you do this...just make up a view and then pretend it came from myself or another board member?

I have never said or thought that the Founders wanted to separate morality and character from governance OR from American culture. I dare you to cite when and where I said, or even implied such a thing.

What I said was that they wanted to separate was institutions of religion from the government. A VERY, VERY different thing altogether.

Well, if you didn't mean what you implied, then we're in agreement.

So why are you bashing me if I don't want to do (with religion) what you don't want religion to do?

If you think, however, that the Founders didn't have a fundamental understanding of what morality meant, and that it was based on Judeo-Christian standards, then we disagree.

If we agree, then most of your animosity toward me is misplaced.

So just let it go, Mesaclone, and you will be free of your burden.   :patriot:

Driving away large majorities in every growing voter demographic is not 'attracting new votes'.  This argument is simply bunk.

Try to follow this...sorry I don't have any crayons.

The fanatics among the SOCONS are solely responsible for the 2012 loss.

5 MILLION supposedly stayed home. I say that number because we have to allow for the cheating by the DEMS.

Trump is the ONLY one who can bring enough voters into the Republican Party so that you geeks' sitting out won't mean squat.

What differece does it make how many Democrats he brings into the Republican Party, if the numbers do not back up a win against Hillary?   Going way way out on a limb and he somehow wins 55% of the white women vote, (not even remotly possible the way he insults them), he would need to get somewhere just over 80% of the white male vote to beat Hillary.  Romney got 62%.     Trump's unpopularity levels will come back to haunt him.

Perhaps because you started out by bashing people of religion with ugly ferocity.  If you want to have a civil conversation with an Evangelical, it might be best not to paint us all as the devil before it starts......

Your "ACTUAL" positions are pretty nasty toward people who believe as I do.  That's fine.  You're free to be as nasty as you want.

And those 5 million will stay home in 2016... plus many more (or vote third party/Hillary).  Furthermore, the independents that did vote for Romney aren't going to this year.  Additionally, the Democratic base will be far more motivated to come out against Trump.  Plus, many independents will be just as motivated against him (there is a reason why the most commonly associated word with Trump is... "scary").

Not to mention that even more of the GOP base will not be voting... as they have died in the last four years.

If you can't deal with my saying that TRUMP is a Pro-abortion, debauched, pro-big government, anti-Constitutional, vulgar, misogynist, infantile, tyrannical, narcissistic and dishonest, then put me on IGNORE. 

If you can't handle my opinions, then don't read them.

The polling has been consistantly against Trump for months.  I highly doubt it'll change, considering the consistency over time.  That's why I think your assumptions that independents will break for Trump to be in error.

Also, college students tend to 'sit it out' anyway.  So the only change factor would be if they actually did come out to vote.

Yep.

According to the Far Right, we are all angry, tree-hugging, big government, homosexual lefties out to destroy the GOP.
According to the Far Left, we are brown shirted Nazis, bigots, racists and members of the He-man Woman Haters Club!

Do you think the Far Righties ever wonder just what the Far Leftees are thinking...and vice versa? They certainly can't both be right. Right?

Truth is, as usual, that they are both very wrong and are equally blinded by a need to adhere to the orthodoxies of the extremes in American politics. What Trump followers really are, is pragmatic and patriotic...with a little nod to Libertarian values. We want a government that respects the peoples exercise of their own religious values, but one that does not seek to advance any particular religious establishment or sect.

The extremes are correct on one count...we do have anger...anger over the fact that both parties have left the middle class behind in their war of rich vs poor. WE are the ones serving in the armed forces. WE are the ones paying the Lion's share of taxes. WE are the ones running small businesses and getting murdered by Obamacare.

And lastly, WE are fed up and we're not gonna take it anymore.

I thought you might have turned on me then.  I thought we just disagreed, but it was clearly a big problem for you that I thought Trump was disgusting for his (thinly veiled) attack on Kelly's being a woman.

But on this thread, I'm defending morality and social conservatism against Mesaclone, and I did think we agreed on that.  Didn't think that was something to laugh at.

But I guess Trump has changed you.......

Anybody that can fog a mirror could see BY THIS TIME, that Mesaclone's "maiden thread" wasn't an act of a troll, but rather an honest appraisal of how this site appeared to any casual guest lurking at the time the thread was initiated.

And yet, some people still hold nasty grudges.

How "Christian" of them.     :whistle:

I thought you might have turned on me then.  I thought we just disagreed, but it was clearly a big problem for you that I thought Trump was disgusting for his (thinly veiled) attack on Kelly's being a woman.

But on this thread, I'm defending morality and social conservatism against Mesaclone, and I did think we agreed on that.  Didn't think that was something to laugh at.

But I guess Trump has changed you.......

(For the record, I have never put you on ignore, nor would I even think of it.  I don't have a problem with disagreements.  Just ridicule for believing in the values so important to our Founders).

ML....you are a fine lady with a sophisticated bent.

IMO, you're just wound a little too tight.    :laugh:

ML, Just because I laughed at that comment has nothing to do with me not standing up with the unborn or morality.  We haven't agreed on the same thing for some time now, that is why I have you usually on ignore, yet this thread I am reading most of the posters.

I changed around the time I opened my eyes about you and your Cruz born in Canada suporters whose wife worked at Goldman Sachs,  went full on to start insulting us. As far as you on ignore....around the time you sided with Icarly  she came out in full support for poor Meygn Kelly and that bullsh8t attempt to make that blood shooting out of whatever mean her time of the month.

Later

So you prefer a con man and carnival barker.  Sad!  **nononono*

btw, the saddest thing for me is to see one of my staunchest pro-life allies turn around and support a pro-abortion, pro-PP candidate.

Your having me on ignore perhaps explains why you've never answered my sincere questions as to how someone who holds life so dear can support a presidential candidate who hasn't had a problem with partial birth abortion.......

Maybe some day, after this ugly season is over, you can explain to me how that happened.....

I just love my country and don't want to see it sink further into a moral abyss.  I care about the lives of the unborn.  I care about protection of children from sexual abuse.  I care about the dignity of women.  I care about honor, truthfulness, and decency.

If that makes me "wound too tight" so be it.

I'm not going to change my fundamental beliefs to please someone on an internet forum.

The polling has been consistantly against Trump for months.  I highly doubt it'll change, considering the consistency over time.  That's why I think your assumptions that independents will break for Trump to be in error.

Also, college students tend to 'sit it out' anyway.  So the only change factor would be if they actually did come out to vote.

Its already begun to change.

GW Battleground in July had Donald Down 17.
GW Battleground last week had him within the margin of error.

That is a real shift in standing in a head-to-head match with Hillary. Consider that poll a preview of what's coming as the convention approaches.

C'mon. Really? So I'm "against" morality and social conservatism? Or do you just need to feel like a Crusader under siege.

I'm a father of 3 daughters and morality is a very important part of our daily lives, so I admit I'm offended that you somehow think I'm "opposed to morality". Where is that coming from?  And where are you coming up with this stuff about the unborn...I have not even touched on the subject....so you're defending things that have not come into question in any way. Its baffling.

For the record, I am with Trump on that issue in that oppose abortion with a few basic exceptions...life of the mother, rape, incest. Does this position make me immoral in your eyes?

And if you truly care about THAT issue, you will get out and vote for Trump against Hillary if that's what the race ends up being...you may be unsure of him and his assertion to nominate Scalia-type Justices....but you KNOW Hillary will appoint SCJ's who will make abortions available on every street corner.

How do you justify NOT voting against a Hillary who is...100% for certain...appointing liberal SCJ's to further her abortion agenda.

I'll save you the trouble.  You support Trump; therefore you have no morals.

This is the binary thinking you're wasting precious words on responding to this poster.

Just ignore her nonsense and write her off as a serious poster.  She writes words that your hands never typed and then argues what she made up out of thin air.  Then if you challenge her false description of you, she claims persecution and the martyr act begins all over again.

It's boring.

On the contrary, the 60% of the GOP that has not voted for Trump (and the 30% who will NEVER vote for him) hopes that the Trump fever will break and that you Stockholm Syndromed groupies will come to your senses.

But, you seem hellbent to force this carny on the rest of the party and endure an embarrassing loss at the polls in November.  It will be YOUR fault that Hillary is elected and YOUR fault that the SC goes liberal.  You just wouldn't listen.

Thank you.  I agree totally about Mesaclone. He blew in calling you a Democrat, and included me in his "meanies" list who just didn't treat poor Trump people nicely.  He was clueless and arrogant, and never brought a single cogent thought to his divisive, deceitful accusation of the rest of us.

The funny thing is, is that I have been completely consistent.  I have always been a social conservative, a fiscal conservative, a small government conservative, and one who made open fun of liberals.

Now here I am on a Republican/Conservative forum defending myself against marauding liberals being made fun of for standing for what conservatives have ALWAYS stood for.  Truth.  Integrity.  Honor.  And I am repeatedly called names for believing what the majority of conservatives believe....... that vulgar, childish, liberal oafs shouldn't be Presidents.

But some of those folks laughing were on my side of the debate just a few short months ago.  Trump has changed them.  He has made them mean.

It's disturbing.

btw, you have been stellar in posting fact after fact, detail after detail opposing Trump and his liberalism.  THANK you!
