I luv ya @catfish1957 ... and ask in friendship that you leave me the hell out of this specious, nonsensical argument.  I have made both my
opinions and the reasons for them as clear as I can. 

It's enough.

Thanks.

Fair enough.  :beer:  Sometimes we just have agree to disagree.  And in friendship, I will always consider you my partner in documenting  the '20 steal that night.

I suppose Levin has the same right as any of the rest of us to convince people to support his preferred candidate.

But I do think the logic of "he's been indicted by a leftist Democrat so we must all support him for the nomination" is just a dumb argument.  It's basically letting the Democrats choose our nominee.

Except that's not his argument.

It's an opinion, not a fact, so it isn't either true or false.  Either way, it doesn't persuade me personally, and I won't vote for Trump under any circumstances.

. Sure it is.

Levin also is making the same mistake as do so many others - they confuse intent and rhetoric with effectiveness.  They like the message Trump sends, so they think he should be supported.  The problem is that he doesn't understand how the government actually works, is too easily fooled/baited by the left, and is terrible at selecting key subordinates.  All the right sentiments in the world are worthless if you lack the ability to implement them properly.

Bullshit.

American voters remember the four years of our strength on the world stage, peace, prosperity, energy independence, borders under control and a spine of steel ----- courtesy of Donald J. Trump.

The problem for you is:  We want him back.

Trump did some good things, no question.  But his flaws also meant that he failed badly at other things that were critical, and at which he should have been able to succeed if he wasn't such a...Trump.

Fair enough.   I don't want him to be the GOP nominee, so obviously I'd prefer it if others didn't.   So you could say that's a "problem" for me. But the problem for you is that he won't be elected/re-elected no matter how badly you want that to happen.

Trump wins one poll

Democrats are winning elections
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.

The MAGA belief is things will get so bad that the voters will pull the lever for Trump no matter what. It’s possible but I wouldn’t want to stake another election on that.

I didn’t think the term MAGA Republican would matter in 2022 because of voter dissatisfaction with Biden but I was wrong. And it’s still working

To me, that logic is dependent upon Biden being the nominee, which I still believe is unlikely in the end.  They'll run someone younger, and age will be an issue.

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.

RFK Jr. just put his hat in the ring....much younger.  Whether or not the Kennedy name these days will carry him is unlikely.

There's a lot more optics in this day of poltics over substance.  I can see his voice alone grating dim primary voters.

Agree.  Unless something drastically happens in the dynamics of this race.  It's over.

Trump will never be acquitted, I'd say that's pretty drastic.
