OT Republican Hypocrisy LOL on Third Party Candidates

[PalmettoTiger1]

Now that Trump appears to be heading to be the "PEOPLES PARTY NOMINEE" the establishment is going nuts trying to disparage him and after asking him to make the pledge NOT to run as a 3rd party candidate are now beating the drums to have a Republican 3rd party candidate

Talk about humorous , bizarre and off the wall stuff in politics

Next we will find out that the Republicans and Democrats have a STAR ROOM in which all politics are decided and we the voters are like lemming and being manipulated to their desires.

Something similar to the Electoral College

The "Republican" party is in name only. It's as fractured as shale when fracking. I HAVE to vote Republican, but sent the RNC back yet another request for donations the flowery message to go fvck themselves. The mainstream Republicans (and Democrats for that matter) just don't GET IT. The American people are tired of their shit. They're tired of the rich and their back door lobbying. They're sure as hell tired of the death of the middle class and inability to get ahead. For that matter, the lower class doesn't/hasn't been able to lift themselves up to the middle class and the "American Dream". That's happened under this regime...and I could give a shit less whether you want to open your eyes to the truth or not.

Ask yourself if you're tired of the lunacy. It would be laughable now in these times and this election except we are truly at the tipping point in our history. Trump is crude, but he can't hold a candle to the lying politicians left running. The Libs wanted to change and they got the fast track to Socialism. I guess young people and certain class whites and minorities look at the Government as a Mom and Dad that OWE them and should help raise them. Those people vs. those that want to just work, raise their families and see their Government uphold the Constitution and stay the hell out of their business. The latter pay for the former to a much greater degree. But the latter is growing faster....and more stupid or blind as to the effect they've had. Tick, tick, tick.

I'm just glad I'm on the downside of my life.

I still contend that Trump entered the race as a publicity stunt and is trying his darndest to purposefully "Howard Dean" himself out of the election but with every crazy comment the herp derp of the party just keep throwing more support behind him. Meanwhile true Republicans are looking at the herp derps and shaking our heads in embarrassment, THEN we look at our "legitimate" candidates in Cruz and Rubio and all we can do is just Picard face palm ourselves to the closet bar asking ourselves "How the F did we get here?"

Tinfoil Hat Conspiracy.

The democrats are behind it! The Democrats' only true candidate is Hillary. For her to win, they run a Socialist septuagenarian against her that has no hope of winning and makes her look like a moderate.

Behind the scenes (Bill and Barack support) they have Trump run as a Republican and Democrats register as Republicans or just vote in the Republican primary. Trump wins, then screws up after the primary or is just unelectable by the general populace. No traditional Republican politician can win and a third party also dooms anyone but a Democrat being elected.

"How the F did we get here?"

By disparaging the only candidate we've had with a logically consistent platform in my lifetime: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ron_Paul_presidential_campaign,_2008

 

[Willence]

Ron Paul would have been a catastrophe. Good on econmy but apocalyptic on foreign policy.

I dont think this is "tin foil" at all ...........

Its brilliant political strategy, and an obvious one when seeing how fractured the Republican party was at the advent of the Tea Party.

 

[PAWrocka]

exactly!!!!!!

One of my best friends in the world is a bleeding heart, youd like him, he works in DC as a assistant to the Secretary of the Interior. Anyways, where he is enjoying the Republican turmoil, he is sad because he was looking forward to meaningful policy debates from the Republicans but instead all we are going to get is most likely something that resembles Schwartz daring Flick to stick his tongue to a icy flag pole.

 

[Willence]

A Democrat wanting meaningful policy discussions? Haha that's a good one.

 

[chassc]

I cant get past the feeling that we're just being fvcked with. Like this is a big joke or experiment and we're just chimps.

True Republican? If you are a true Republican following the RNC, sir, you'd be a fvcking moderate(just to the LEFT) moron. In fact, I laugh at this whole "true Republican" BS. How's that GD true Republican been working for you?

People that are as wealthy as (Romney & Trump) assuming they have active businesses, literally have tax returns that would fill a pickup bed, it is complicated. I'm not saying people can't change their mind, more so that I view this as a flip attack that fits the establishments agenda. I will be voting for Ben Carson, FWIW, following that by whoever is the Republican nominee. Sometimes you have to hold your nose (Trump) and pull the leaver for the greater good. Allowing Hillary to have potentially 3 Supreme Court Appointments would end this country as we know it.

time and time again you say things like, lets have a rational policy discussion devoid of name calling and over-generalizations, and the time and time again you post idiocy like this...

there are a number of people on this board, and many many more in real life who can attest to my desire to have meaningful policy decisions. im probably a democrat no?

Ice, his friend is in politics. You have to distinguish the two man. Just like with Republicans. People in the political arena don't want rational anything. No one on either side... You may and I may but they don't. That's proven over time.

willence, i work in "politics". I am a campaign professional and consultant. my entire career has been in and around politics. i also grew up in politics. my father worked at the senate and FAA for 30+ years. i can point to, literally, hundreds of people on both sides in "politics" that have rational discussions about policy and its impacts every day. Chances are pretty good I even KNOW his friend. You are flat out wrong.

Again you're not understanding me. I know how cordial things are behind the scenes. The presentation to the public is far more extreme. You know this. The system is disingenuous at best. Harry Reid is a shining example of what I mean. And I am sure you could name some Republicans you feel the same about. I am not wrong. The level of demonization and dehumanization we have now are on clear display. There is no denying it.

 

[Willence]

And if you all talk about it daily and this is the result you should all be fired and forever banned from anything of importance. I kniw I'd be fired if I achieved that little at my job.

im not a policy guy, im a political guy (events, outreach, strategic decisions re: campaigns), so the conversations im having arent intended to produce policy results, just votes .

say what you want about the split between those two jobs (policy vs. political), and maybe thats part of the reason our system is so messed up, that those two specialties have, sometimes, divergent goals, but im just out here trying to make a living for my family

I really have no issue with you. I don't agree with you on much of anything but that doesn't matter. You have earned my respect. But the body politic has lost it all. I just hope you're willing to grant me the difference between the two.

I do appreciate your political insight, just have to fight against a Hillary campaign.
