Never Trump

[franklin]

Well, there's now a "never Trump" candidate, and he's LDS and a BYU alum.

It'll be interesting to hear his policies and see if he gets enough support to even get on the ballots.

This still cracks me up. Americans hate on the establishment, DC, etc etc etc, and now that an outsider comes in we are all supporting the establishment and rooting for them to topple the outsider. Of course, I'm the guy who doesn't hate most politicians as I am Republican minded and respect representatives.

Anyway, I quoted you specifically because I am 100% confident Hillary will crush Trump, alternate party candidate or not.

The American Nazi Party (lolwut?) now openly supports Trump.

If you think people hate on trump because he is an outsider then you are wrong... At least speaking for myself, him being an outsider is about the only thing that I actually support about him

That's right. His support still mainly comes from people who consider him an outsider, and who think the "establishment" had done em wrong. He'll be crushed because many are starting to correctly see him as a serious threat to the country.

Trump "jokes" about Clinton being assassinated.

Trump, minutes earlier at a rally, said: “Hillary wants to abolish, essentially abolish, the Second Amendment…By the way, and if she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks. Although the Second Amendment people, maybe there is, I don’t know. But I’ll tell you what, that will be a horrible day.”

I had read that he has already missed the deadline in at least a dozen states. Good candidate or not its a side show. he should have gotten into the race earlier.

But everyone should vote who they can in good conscience support IMO.

I've heard that one can do legal appeals to get around the deadline restrictions. But it would likely take money & popular support, so we'll see if he gets those. If yes, then he should be a serious candidate to consider. If no, then maybe not.

Why do you consider this new guy to be an establishment candidate? Doesn't seem like it to me.

I agree Hillary is by far the most likely outcome right now. And I think I've said before that I myself consider her preferable to Trump, even though I really detest her as well.

Lmfao at people not realizing that using some Crisco makes a better cookie.

It's like listening to poor people talk about being rich.

I've made cookies both ways. I made more cookies when I was 24-25 than most people make in a lifetime.

Anything you get from using Crisco, you get from using butter at the proper (much below room) temperature. If you prefer the taste of Crisco, fine.

the momentum part. Infuriating.

Certainly,, the physical definition of momentum does not apply.

However, once people have decided, confirmation bias tends to kick in. It's much harder to persuade someone against voting for Clinton after they have decided to vote for them, because people don't like to change their opinions. So, momentum exists in that sense.

People can be so dense.
