GTFOOH

Trump has the worst record at the Supreme Court of any modern president. He is 0-4 in 2020 among the major rulings. What exactly are your metrics for success? Just appointing justices? or the actual SC rulings?

Also regarding your comment that "we can have an actual authentic Republican" next go round:

Donald Trump defeated 16 of those "actual Republicans" to win the Presidency. He did not "hijack the party". He WON. People voted for him. If you were a conservative, you would not be against the will of the people.

Also "actual authentic Republicans" like Romney and McCain were not popular presidential candidates, so there is no guarantee someone like that would win in 2024. It is traditionally hard to defeat an incumbent POTUS.

The more I think about it, the more I think this is a bogus post.
I got the same feeling. Not all republicans are conservatives and not all democrats are radical liberals. But to support anyone in the democratic ticket in this election, is conceding to far left agendas. I’d rather go for it on 4th and 20 than punt.

Trump does what he says and works for all Americans.

Lies? Biden said it is his first act as president. Please stop with your lies! He is going to make all the illegals citizens. Then he is going to give them all health care. That will collapse our health care system. Brilliant move. Then we are all stuck under single payer. People have zero clue of what they are voting for! Biden is an unmitigated disaster!!!

So are neo-fascist white power groups. But dont see the so called conservatives worrying about that. Guessing most WWII generation have passed on but even oldest here, their Daddies fought against this fascist nonsense. Now this generation is hearlding it as the new conservatism.



Neo-fascism is no more conservative than Democrats are communist. People here apparently flunked civics/government class in high school. They forgot what an actual communist, socialist, and fascist truly are and just fling those words against any they disagree with caring little about accuracy. In reality those in power both Democrat and Republican are mostly right wing corporate apologists. Very CAPITALIST and very in support of CORPORATIONS running the economy. The Demos just have bit more social heart for those at bottom than the Republicans that only serve the 1%ers interests and have no problem stepping over corpses of poor littering the sidewalks.

I despised Mitt Romney and left the Republican Party in 2012 just like you are doing now. But I refused to vote for Obama. If you hate Trump so much that you need to leave the party, my suggestion to you would be to vote third party.

The thinking that if we just get rid of Trump and get back to “Republican Classic” we can win again is so completely flawed. I am the exact type of person that you need back in order for Republican Classic to win in 2024, and I’m flat out telling you that if they trot out a candidate in 2024 with the same platform that Romney had, I will definitely not come back. Republican Classic is dead, get over it.
That is a completely valid and well considered position. When I watched the 'Republican Classic' primary debates, only one person in that entire group had a message that was not the same regurgitated religious and corporate garbage, and that was Trump. Furthermore, he was the only one brave enough to admit Iraq was a mistake. You would have NEVER heard that from the all the rest of the candidates, they would never go off the reservation like that.

I knew Trump would be the nominee, and totally understand why.

Even if he ends up with an 8-8 record we can say it's still a disgrace and we can groom another QB. We can have an actual authentic republican candidate ready for the next election. This Trump experiment is a complete and utter failure and we must abandon ship. Trump is galvanizing groups like BLM and other liberal movements. These groups are strong because Trump antagonizes them. He doesn't have a scintilla of diplomacy. He's not even a conservative. I don't know how we allowed him to just hijack our party like this. America is in dire situations because of Trump. Stop deceiving yourself and vote Biden. A vote for Biden is just a punt. A stratagem. A chess move. We will eventually get the ball back.
QB Biden hands the ball off to RB Harris who fumbles. The opposing team picks it up a scores the winning TD.

Trump and his CD disciples have been ridiculing Biden's cognitive abilities since Biden won the nomination. Now Trump is saying "He will probably win the debate. He has more experience than me. He's great."



So which is it? Is he in the throes of age related dementia and cognitive decline? Why is Trump fearful of losing a debate to a demented retard?

Ridiculous. Biden will lose your team's games on purpose because he's MEMBER OF THE OTHER TEAM.
