  1. Read the article. Hell, read the quote I cited. Or here...let me put it in left wing media jargon for you...

     

    Trump fined almost a quarter million dollars for keeping blacks away from his casino patrons.

     

    That'll play well in the general, no? You saw what happened when word got out that Romney's cancer-stricken wife had a horse. Surely this will get more attention once Donald is the nominee.

     

    Sounds like freedom of association to me. A constitutional conservative like Trump cherishes that freedom.

  2. Do you not find it ironic that you're looking at supporting documentation from a person who openly hates people like you?

     

    Stop being such a patronizing SJW. I'm sure Justice can handle himself just fine on internet message boards without you looking out for him.

  3.  

    Rubio or Kasich maybe. Cruz will have a tough time because he'll never carry swing states.

     

     

    Cruz can compete in the swing states if he has the Trump/Sessions endorsement. In 2012, the turnout level for uneducated whites was only 57%. Educated whites turned out at 77%. Back in the 80s, uneducated whites had turnout rates > 70%, similar to their educated counterparts. It's just that over the years since then, both the Dems and the GOP have abandoned that demographic. They re-emerged this cycle thanks to Trump.

     

    Rubio and Kasich can't win. As stated before, you'll have a lot of angry Cruz and Trump supporters if their candidates have the most delegates but Rubio or Kasich become the nominee. The Republican coalition is fractured. You have to think in terms of which candidate has the best chance of bringing it all together for the general. The answer is Cruz.

  4. So what are we left with? The problem is there is no good option. I've gave up on all of them since Paul dropped out but as near as I can tell Cruz is the conservative's choice on the message board. He is certainly better than Rubio so I guess there is no one else. But I don't trust him at all. His wife is way to connected with the banks and Washington. She's was or still is on the Council Of Foreign Relations promoting a" North American Community" whatever that's supposed to mean. It seems to be open up the borders to unskilled labor, welfare recipients to come up here and ship all manufacturing to Mexico. This part of her career seems to be missing from her Wiki page as well.

    So yell, scream, insult whatever but this is why things seem so desperate. Even Cruz, arguably the best candidate left is compromised. It's a crappy situation.

     

    All this is true. Except, I suspect most Trump voters would be able to put aside their cynicism on voting day to cast a vote for Cruz. Especially if he gets Trump's endorsement because of the Sessions connection.

     

    Cruz is probably the only way the GOP can win this cycle.

  5.  

    Trump's going to win the nomination. Cruz just doesn't know it (or is in denial) and the media doesn't want to let the audience know it and lose ratings.

     

    If there's any funny business at the convention and it's stolen away from Trump, then Hillary will win the election in the biggest landslide victory in history.

     

    Yep, if Trump and Cruz head to the convention with the most delegates and yet Romney, Ryan, Rubio, or Kasich emerge as the nominee, there will be hell to pay.

  6. Cruz could actually get a Trump endorsement via the Jeff Sessions connection. I can't imagine Trump/Sessions would endorse the traitor Rubio.

     

    Cruz would motivate the base, the mainstream/establishment voters would even support him (because at least he's not Trump), AND he's the one guy who could conceivably get a heartfelt Trump/Sessions endorsement.

     

    Basically, Cruz could keep Romney's coalition, but then ADD ON a motivated base and new white working class voters via Trump. He would beat Hillary like a drum with that coalition.

     

    He's always been the right compromise candidate for many months now.

     

    If the GOP instead performs the convention steal to nominate Romney, Ryan, or Rubio, it's over for them as a Party.

  7.  

    Trump’s going to be the GOP nominee. All this talk of a brokered convention is nothing but a sign of desperation from the elite power brokers who are being run out of town on a rail by the voters who they’ve been ignoring for a long time. The media will try to keep the charade going for the ratings (money), but it’s all but over.

     

     

     

    He's certainly the odds-on favorite but probably no more than a 65-70% chance, according to political betting sites. Which means there's still a 30-35% chance for a convention steal.

     

    He can basically lock it up by sweeping Florida and Ohio on March 15. Let's see what happens. I'm expecting a split.

  8. He will not run as an independent just to finish third, and he'd have to spend money to do so. Then, there's ballot access issues and sore loser laws. It's an empty threat. Which is why he was forced to sign the pledge in the first place.


    If the GOP manages to do the convention steal, he'll just make the rounds on cable news, whining about the steal, making fun of Romney (or Ryan, whoever the nominee is) and Hillary and hawking a book about his campaign. I assume there's some famous author embedded and writing a book.

  9. I think Hillary will prevail by a small margin and the Sanders camp will believe there was tampering.

     

    That would definitely be interesting. He'd probably be right. I don't trust Microsoft.

     

    Election software should be open-source.

    If turnout is high but Hilldog wins, you'll know Bill Gates did a favor for the Clinton dynasty.
