I won't be here after the election and vote.

If Hillary wins - I will be busy, BLOAT! (It won't be long before she won't let you buy.)

If Trump wins, I won't be here to GLOAT. (I don't want to hang around while everyone looks at every speck in his eye.)

The names Trump and Reagan go together like oil and water.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

Trump is a dumb-ass.  Ignorant, intellectually incurious, childish.

Ronald Reagan would not endorse a fool like Donald Trump.

Since we're referencing history - I would suggest Trump could have a 'Rome, October 1922 kind of blow-up'.

The comparisons of Trump as Reagan are not as appropriate as the comparison of Trump to Il Duce.
Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775

You see fascists everywhere don't you?

Try looking at our NATO ally Turkey sometime and ask yourself who allowed that regime to grow and prosper?

Irrelevant.

The president does not appoint and seat - the Senate must confirm.

Even so, when did you capitulate to the idea that SCOTUS makes law?

First off, Trump is no Reagan. He's closer to LBJ.

Secondly, there will be no 1980 landslide because the electorate make up is different than it was in 1980.

However, too many assume that the rest of the country sees Trump the same way us conservatives do. Yes, I know. His negatives are on par with her's. However, and I understand this is just anecdotal evidence, but many people I hear and overhear have a sense that in this email thing, Hillary has gotten away with something others would not have and that she has benefit from the fact that there are laws for the elite and laws for the rest of us. And never underestimate the loathing and anger the average citizen has for Washington DC and it's occupants.

This is a disappointing election for conservatives. No question on that. And someday, conservatism will be called upon to truly "Make America Great Again." But, for now, the average citizen doesn't think like we do. They just know they are disgusted with what's going on. They don't compare Trump's soft statism with Hillary's Marxism. They just know that they don't like the direction of the country and might decide to take a risk with a Trump presidency. Hillary embodies everything they hate about Washington politics.



I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

A message board participant isn't going to sway the election.  A candidate's refusal to prepare for the biggest 90 minutes of his life will, and most likely did.  You should be furious with Trump right now.

There are more debates coming.

A candidate not performing well in one debate isn't the decider. Many a candidate has had a terrible debate performance only to go on and win the election

True, but the problem here is Trump's performance the other night was analogous to his performance in the dozen previous debates he's participated in. The difference was in the moderator's focus, and the willingness of his opponent to go for the cheap shot.

If he makes an adjustment - meaning he prepares - it will be the first time he's changed his style.

And I really wish the Ronald Reagan comparisons would stop. Where Trump is concerned they are utterly ridiculous.

The next debate, if Trump is man enoughg to attend, will not garner 84+ million viewers.  He had a chance to look Presidential to many "undecideds".  In the end what we saw was Hillary on him like rat on a cheeto.

If we're really lucky, Trump will be the next Warren Harding.
Down the centuries, you have slurred the meaning of the words, "We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty, to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution". These words and the words that follow, were not written only for the Yangs, but for the Kohms as well! They must apply to everyone, or they mean nothing! - James Tiberius Kirk
