Deranged Rhino Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Never said a thing about killing. You are the liar What did you mean by that statement then? Was the implication not that you hoped the republicans would not only bring all their guns but use them while the convention is blowing up? Of course it is. But you're a lying asshat who wishes death upon people who disagree with you. That's called extremism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was its pro-gun preaching satire—as those who praised its author’s trolling believe? Or was it a sincere attempt at Second Amendment advocacy?

Tiberius Posted April 2, 2016 Author Share Posted April 2, 2016 Looking more and more like The Donald won't make it to the magic number and creepy Cruz could take the nomination at the convention. The Republicans are a joke.A cruel joke, really. They are fighting to become the leaders who would take away health care, deport millions, build walls, f**** up foreign trade give billions in tax cuts again, cause, you know, tax cuts pay for themselves, and let the rest of the country stew in it. And people wonder why they are so screwed up? After decades of "government is evil, the media is corrupt, we are being taxed to death" terror alerts and stirring up white resntment against the poor and immigrants this is what you get. A hate convention in Cleveland that even hates itself. Pretty soon they will start expanding their obstructionism in government from shut downs and refusing to go ahead with hearing on the court to just shutting everything down. Hate makes people do destructive things. Dysfunfunction brought to you by the haters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the meantime, the dems are set to nominate a vagina who auctioned off the office of Secretary of State for donations to her "charity". You know, the "charity" whose sole purpose was to channel money to her political supporters. Yes, she lied about the cause of death for true heroes in Benghazi and failed to have their backs and caused their deaths just to get a good laugh from you. She compromised this nation's security by setting up her own unsecured server to let the world see our classified information in an attempt to hide her true dealings from the public. Everything that she has been has been by, for and about her. You dems are mistaking a C*** for a vagina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The absolute lack of imagination and rational observation, coupled with your necessity to cling to tropes and mischaracterizations, make for a stunning display of stubborn stupidity. Never in my life have I seen anyone so willing to publicly embarrass themselves to the degree that you do. Haven't you ever wondered why nobody ever takes anything you say seriously?

Looks like the GOP is cutting Donald here, slashing him there and trying to cut him down as much as they can to deny him the nomination. On a second ballot they could nominate anyone. Mitt?

Tiberius Posted April 4, 2016 Author Share Posted April 4, 2016 http://www.politico.com/story/2016/04/the-gops-other-convention-nightmare-221477 Republicans, already girding for their most tumultuous convention in decades, now have another fight brewing: a divisive battle over gay marriage on the party’s official national platform. It’s an issue that drives intense passion, and one that splits the mainstream and evangelical wings of the GOP. With the convention less than four months away, both sides are mobilizing in anticipation of a bitter clash over whether the party should embrace a more moderate approach to gay nuptials, in keeping with a public that is more open to it, or maintain the hard line the party’s base demands.

Tiberius Posted April 7, 2016 Author Share Posted April 7, 2016 http://theweek.com/articles/616179/why-karl-rove-rooting-brokered-convention The GOP establishment has been very open in its talk about straight up dumping Trump during the Republican Party's convention in July. This could happen even if Trump comes into Cleveland with more than 1,237 delegates. Or it could happen if he comes in with fewer — perhaps a lot fewer. Imagine if Trump shows up with only 1,100 delegates, and on the first ballot, he loses. On the second ballot — when many delegates are released from their commitments — Cruz wins. But there's another possibility, too — one that induces salivation among the GOP's old guard of powerbrokers. Cruz, by some unparalleled turning of the tables, has his second-ballot nomination taken away, and party mandarins manage to install John Kasich or Paul Ryan or Rick Perry as their nominee. If rules must be rewritten, so be it. If the will of the voters must be overlooked, so what. Just get one of "our guys" at the top of the ticket. The end justifies the means, right?
