Topic Wiki

Thread summary:

Trump walks in a room.

1. Moshe123 shoots at him because he is pure evil, 2. ilherman+hachover jump in front of the bullets because Trump is our savior. 3. aygart tackles Moshe123 because Trump is better than HRC, 4. but Baruch can't stand Trump so he tells aygart he's crazy and Trump is a madman. 5. ExGingi would like to point out that who cares what he is, all that matters is the supreme court nominations. 6. Dan and others aren't really sure how this makes them feel plus they don't really want to drink poison. 7. Spoiler alert: Moshe123's gun was empty, it was just a blank.

And Freddie is in the back of the room just cooking his cholent. Until he announces that there are TWO menu choices, Pareve Cholent or Vegetable Lasagna. While etech0 figured out that they are both poisoned.


Repeat x100.

And then Hilary walks into the room with the most confidence a candidate has had in recent history. She is so confident that she eats both the Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna. Everyone is the room is aghast, they don't know how this happened, could it be Comey is behind this poisoning or was it that her Obamacare premiums were to high to get her the help she needed.

Everyone stared as she choked and was cast into oblivion on November, 8, 2016 the last day she was heard from in the public eye.

Moshe123, ilherman, hachover, Baruch, ExGingi, Dan, Freddie, etech0, and the rest of America are in total shock and hope that so long as Trump doesn't eat any Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna and stays true to his supreme court nominees this may be the greatest thing to happen since the CSR and GC's.

But remember this may be the beginning of the end...

P.S. Thanks to cognitive dissonance aygart, Michael Moore, and Scott Adams knew the whole time that Trump could win, unfortunately for JTZ he may be off DDF for the next 4 years due to his mandatory 3 times daily consumption of CROW!

As things turns out, the most prescient view on this election was that of Michael Moore! Though Scott Adams is also claiming a high view level of prescience.

What Kasich did was pure politics for his benefit. The same thing Cruz did. They can all talk the talk but in the end they look at the polls to decide this one. If Trump was killing HRC in OH Kasich would be his lap dog. Lets get real here.
What do you think he may benefit by voting McCain over just keeping his mouth shut or making a hold your nose and vote statement "I am not voting for him but against Hillary blah blah blah"

Because McCain stands for a large part of what's wrong with Trump. As has been said above.

He was the first of many ridiculous and dumb things trump has said and done in his campaign.

Can someone explain why Kasich stayed in the primary race for so so long?
Was that also for extra publicity to benefit him in 2020?

First his one job was to win Ohio, then he was probably hoping to be nominated in a coup at the convention. Once he saw that wasn't happening he dropped out.

All been talked about at the time in the old election thread iirc

Neh-he still thinks that is happening today. It is as realistic now as it ever was.

Big difference between it existing and being a big issue. I would guess that a high percentage of forum members have experienced some level of bias at some point in their lives but would also say that bias is not a big issue in America today.
Just yesterday, I was walking, minding my own business, in a parking lot in Howell, and a lady near me says to nobody in particular "Would you stay in Lakewood...".

How about a three way race McCain, HRC and Trump? You vote who you like the most. Who wins?

You are probably right bec 99.9% of politicians act purely for political purposes 99.9% of the time but I still think it makes sense for the individual voter to write in if that's what they are comfortable with

First his one job was to win Ohio, then he was probably hoping to be nominated in a coup at the convention. Once he saw that he couldn't piggy back on cruz anymore he dropped out.

Yep, he'll have the dubious distinction of voting for this republican LOSER twice.

Kasich will be 68 in 2020. No way GOP is nominating a stale-old-white-guy after 4 years of HRC. Will definitely be a 40-50 year old (Cruz/Rubio/Ryan etc.). Perhaps even a woman or minority.
