The Next President of the United States: IV

Kagan is among the most prominent members of the Republican foreign policy and national security community.

“Of the remarkable things we have learned this election year, the most significant is that the current Republican Party is unfit to lead the country. It has failed the greatest test a political leader or party can face, and failed spectacularly. It has abandoned its principles out of a combination of cowardice and opportunism. It has worked to place in the White House the most dangerous threat to U.S. democracy since the Civil War. And perhaps just as revealing, it has in the process engineered its own suicide. Not only has the party refused to save the country, but also it has proved too helpless, too incompetent and too craven even to save itself.”

All your posts are empty assertions… you generally offer up nothing but your personal opinion with nothing behind it.

I’ll pass

They don’t actually mean he created Trump but are referring to the void of political policies he is offering to fill.

That article makes it sound like they didn’t try to stop Trump. Republicans can only blame themselves, for continuing to lie to their constituents. Make no mistake, Democrats have issues with jiggering the election against Bernie Sanders and his supporters who so fervently love him.

You do pretty much no different. Except you are much less able to see it, and don’t believe the same rules apply to you.

I read that from my main page. That is taking things WAY too far.

Hillsborough, N.C…population 6,000…full of Antebellum Historic Sites and NASCAR tracks.

Yep…looks and sounds like a hotbed of Terrorist activity to me…

It all looks and sounds suspect. It should be interesting to see what the investigation uncovers.

I’m sure you believe that

Apparently they (state actors) have cut julian Assange’s Internet access according to wikileaks

And what is the electing uniparty’s motivation to vote third party, praytell?

I assumed the outcome was for one of the third party candidates to ultimately be elected by Congress. In other words, to avoid both Trump and Clinton.

Aren’t these 3rd party voters the most gullible? Even if their third party candidate were to magically take off in popularity, he’d need to take on hundreds of millions of dollars in donations to run a successful campaign thus spoiling his integrity.

I fully understand what you and author desire. Maybe millions desire it.
But why would the electors vote in a third party? Not only is there zero motivation to not ģet a member of your own party, the fear that your opponent would renege on the pledge and screw you, is too great.

You have fallen head over heels for one of the dumbest most inept candidates in the history of the United States.

There’s actually quite a bit of motivation if you think about it. As it stands, Clinton is most likely going to win at this point. So the only way to defeat her now is:

  1. Pray for a bombshell from Wikileaks or,
  2. Force Congress, which is controlled by the Republicans to decide who will be President/VP

It’s really the only chance Donald Trump has too since Red/Blue states are almost evenly divided by my count…

Plus, McMullin is a Republican and Johnson was a Republican Governor so, imo, you could justify a pivot to either of these two candidates as an elector while still maintaining your party affiliation (since that matters to people apparently).

Edited.

First Assange’s internet is severed and now Russia Today’s UK bank accounts are frozen.

I wonder what they’re deathly scared of wikileaks releasing against Hillary?

Your best chance is actually with Trump winning Ohio, Florida, North Carolina, Virginia, and the other states that should be red. McMullin takes Utah. This ends in a 267-266-5 slatemate.

Obviously we would have to shoot the moon for this, but the point no one discusses is that if no one gets to 270 and the house selects POTUS, the Senate selects veep separately. Senate would pick Pence, you convince the house to pick McMullin (who seems to be a stand up guy, but let’s be honest - he’s not ready to be president.) McMullin resigns immediately after being sworn in and you have a President Pence
