 Can any Republican win? |
Resident Skeptic |
When a candidate's street fighter personality is more of offense to voters (even some Christians) than a woman who would be in jail in a fair and just society, what Republican could win?
If Rubio was the candidate instead of Trump, he'd be succumbing to withering attacks over something irrelevant and being advised to lay low and to not respond. The media would never cover the substance of his positions or speeches. The reason Trump made it this far was because he had the media on the ropes. But when your own party is piling on you, what can you do?

I'm not "his own party" that's for sure, and I'm pretty sure a lot of Republians don't feel like he's "their party".
And nobody said they in any way like Hillary better.
And to answer the first question, yes a Republican could win if the voters would nominate a better one. I saw Rubio grow a lot during those debates and I think he would do very well by now. He's not my first choice, but I believe he is a true conservative for the most part.
I will say that I don't think the majority at the national level are interested in any candidate that says you should work for a living. We've crossed a line into real socialism now. I hope that can be reversed, but Trump isn't the one to do it in my opinion. |

You seem to contradict yourself. If the majority want socialism, then a "better conservative" would not have a prayer.
Personally, I think more than half of registered voters simply are not qualified to vote and have no business doing so. Only those that can pass a basic exam on the Constitution and history should be allowed to vote.

Nope, I said I hope it can be reversed. Trump isn't the one to that. We had crossed a line of "big-government" from the 60s through 70s until Reagan convinced enough democrats that it would never work.
I like your exam idea, could we give it to a candidate before he is allowed to run?  |

YES!! Even more so the candidates than the voters!

There would be certain groups , you know who , that would find that discriminatory and unfair. Anyway how would they cheat if this was required?
I believe that there are a lot more than half... |

Just heard Rudy Giuliani make a great point on Sean Hannity's show. Democrats rally around people who break the law and they stay loyal and supportive. Republicans jump ship when someone says something insensitive.

RS I think you are mixing meanings and happenings. It was mentioned, only a couple voices on his forum have said Hillary is the best candidate. Only one or two have hinted they would vote for her.
But you have some fair Republicans (who want to be re-elected themselves) who feel forced to distance themselves from some of Trumps 'strange actions'. The last of which was even mentioning 'disparagingly' a man talking about the death of a son who died in service (of cancer, car wreck, suicide ANY DANGED REASON).
Yea even my son says 'Trump said the son was a hero!" Sure he did. His statements came across as 'uncaring' any man's voice would have. He just as well have said, "Yeah your son was a hero, but why even talk about the PLEASE SELECT ANOTHER WORD, you Idiot! What's wrong with your wife? CAt got her tougue?"
The man can think only of himself, when asked if he had sacrificed? Instead of saying something like " not like these folk who have given life and limb, but I guess I have sacrificed as much as Hillary? "
I cannot blame some of the leaders from distancing them selves. He seems to enjoy alienating people who TRY to support him
All that said, yep he is there under the Republican name. He is the only one who even has a distant chance to defeat Hillary, so Yep I will vote for him. 'I am an 'Anyone but Hillary' voter.
Yes I have written and e-mailed my opinions to Trumps Campaign manager. I am sure He is giving Trump MY advice tonight, LOL
