    Nice, Brian.

    A few Milkmen songs feature your typical Trump supporter as their protagonist.

    This kind of thing is only going to get worse. How many here would celebrate if Trump supporters showed up at a Sanders rally in a similar effort? They would be widely condemned, correct? And they would deserve to be. This is not how our political process is supposed to unfold.

    Drumpf has already threatened to do that. He would be personally responsible.
    aahhh politics.
    Nasty shit happens behind the scenes but when it comes affront people are aghast.
    People don't like when others tell it like it is.
    So you admit that the Trump protesters are telling it like it is? Is that why the Trump supporters are getting so mad?

    If people went to protest at a Bernie rally, Bernie's supporters wouldn't attack them. But even if they did, Bernie would immediately condemn it, not support it.
    He's even gone on record that he's glad Rahm hasn't endorsed him. Bernie's made it clear he's not a fan of DINOs.

    If it was only liberals here, this would suck. We need the conservatives to make the forum interesting.

    I'm not against conservatives, just those who refuse to go even slightly to the left of Fox News on any issue and there are a lot lately. Michael Steele is a great example of a sane conservative. Always look forward to him when he's on Bill Maher's show. I'm all for libertarians as well since I'm a third party (green) convert myself as long as they're not cafetaria types. Thanks for not stooping to PJfan's low. I wouldn't be super excited if Kasich or Rand became POTUS but it wouldn't drive me to contemplate moving out of here like Cruz or Drumpf or even Hillary ffs. I never even considered it for Romney.

    There are many democrats like Hillary, Rahm and Harry Reid who I flat out hate as much as the right wing crazies.

    I think that Trump will win the nomination, and that every single reasonable voter in the USA will go to polls in droves, not matter who he's running against, to ensure that the next POTUS isn't Donald Fucking Trump. I think that even plenty of moderate Republicans would way rather vote for Clinton than Trump.

    My manager, who is CEO of our company, dislikes Obama (not like the irrational dislike, but nonetheless). He votes in FL. He is a Republican and he HATES Trump. I asked him if he was going to vote for Hillary and he doesn't know what he is doing. Either Hillary or staying home.
    Have you told him Johnson is running as libertarian? I actually prefer him over Rand Paul to be honest.

    So many haters on these forums... Rather then discuss things with an open mind, they just hate this, just hate that.

    Free - disagreeing with someone is not synonymous with 'hating'. I know that's how it is in the pop culture today, but in the real world, it's disagreements. If someone calls you an idiot, stupid, asshole, etc. for your beliefs, well that's hating. But saying that Bernie doesn't have momentum, or that he doesn't have a real path forward is somewhere between opinion or sober analysis.
    Ironically, they're the ones who hate and support hateful people like Drumpf and the Kartrashians.

    I like Johnson. I didn't think he was running. But after Nader gave us Bush, I'm not voting third party.

    DINO. ... that's trying to turn the party into the small tent, just like the right wing base has done. Aren't we smarter?

    I was just about to ask the same thing. I know I was one who said that Bernie doesn't have momentum and doesn't have an actual path to the nomination without Hillary imploding, but I am no Trump or Kardashian fan. I will be voting for Gary Johnson if he announces. I will not be voting for a major party presidential candidate this cycle (and haven't for years). So I have no dog in the major party nomination fight, and am just an interested observer of the process.

    I would totally vote for Johnson if he had a chance in hell. I've changed my strategy to voting for those that would do the most damage to both established parties so that people like Johnson may actually have a fighting chance in the future. The parties are going to have to dissolve somewhat for that to happen.

    i just ignore people when i don't understand their point. i'm not going to go back pages to try to figure it out. got no time for that.

    i can't wait to see how the establishment is going to screw over trump. it is going to be great.

    I like JWPearl's comments because they break up the monotony of these endless going nowhere threads.
