WideRight05 Wrote:Clintonâs supporters would say the same thing, that any vote not given to Clinton is a vote for Trump. So, you could say it either way. Iâm doing what I think is best, although take note my vote is not finalized at this point. You know what I think about Clinton, but I also donât have the confidence in Trump to cast a vote for him.
The media, yes, I agree Granny, they are biased against Trump. It still doesnât excuse some of his actions, but none of what I believe comes from the media. It comes from his speeches, from Twitter, his website, from studying his positions and the lack of confidence in him to develop a consistent position on most issues. The best source of information, Granny, if youâre not watching it live on C-SPAN, go to (1) Full YouTube videos of a candidate's speeches and/or interviews, and (2) the candidate's website. Best way you can get an understanding of a candidate.
I expected if a non-establishment candidate such as Trump, Rubio, Cruz, or Paul won that they would probably have a bit of trouble getting support from people such as McCain or Romney. So it's pretty easy to cut Trump some slack in that area. With Trump, though, I feel like he has brought some of the heat on himself with some unnecessary attacks toward them at times.
I feel confident Trump wasnât the first choice of Seger, I know it was for TRT though, as much as tries to act like it wasnât. Go back and read his posts, well before the primary was close to being decided. He is also on record here stating that he didnât even vote in the most important primary in the history of our country.
Iâm not the least bit mad at TRT, as it may seem in your eyes. I certainly stand my ground and I do think he made a bad decision in the primary, but I like TRT. Itâs nothing personal.
Lastly, again, if you vote Trump and feel itâs the right thing to do to keep Hillary out, I donât fault you. When I speak of Trump supporters, I'm not speaking of the ones that are holding their noses to vote for him merely to keep Hillary Clinton out.
Regardless of who the politician is, when you see a group of people become so attached to one (as we saw with Barack Obama) to the point where they can do no wrong then that sets of dangerous precedent. Donald Trump has a cult-like following which is bad in many ways. This movement is not about Christian or conservative values, it's about Donald Trump - which is a dangerous tone to have because just like with Barack Obama, many of Trump's supporters will flip their views to whatever Trump is feeling.
Debate rules; If another debate's name is mentioned, he gets to respond.
Whether you believe this or not, I saw something in Ted Cruz that I did not like during the Iowa Straw poll. His staffers told Carson voters that he had pulled out when the timeline demonstrated that they knew the rumor was false. His poll workers pulled the same trick later on in the process in another state. I saw similar lapses by him during the coming months and like it or not, that's my story and I'm sticking to it. To make matters much worse, he then goes to the convention and foments further divide on the floor in his speech, which was meant to make himself look to be above it all. The rumors about him being caustically ambitious seem to have been born out. The good of the country that he says he owes so much to, can evidently just wait until his political foes are disposed of.
I thought Cruz was the bees knees. But that's why we vet people. In the end my expectations about who would win the nomination were correct. You think the primaries were the big deal, I say the general election is the big deal. If the primary was the biggest in the nation's history, what is the general, chopped liver?
