Jesus Christ, folks. So uppity about your sweet Daddy.

The thread title’s premise is that Republicans got duped by Trump. It’s a fact that they didn’t, on account that most wanted other candidates.

Being defensive about this makes you all look like you got duped by Trump.

I answered. Please just get it. Every time you talk to me about anything, I have to hold your hand all the way through. Figure it out.

That only exists in your mind. I suspect it's a physiological defense mechanism.


So, again...what is the nature of this "flaw in the system" that "allowed" Trump to win??

No

It's just self explanatory that when a lot of candidates are involved, the "favorites" will be spread out. I'm not saying that as anything special for Trump. It is simply that you are observing a water is wet scenario that exists with or without Trump in 2016

And then you said this was some "flaw" when in fact, with that many candidates, it was pretty much a given

Trump is what he is. He was my 10th choice until the Chicago situation

It’s remarkable how you managed to be wrong on every one of your points.

I seriously can’t believe that you, an adult man, are incapable of understanding what I’ve told you.

Let me guess: you probably think Sonnet XVIII is better than Sonnet CXLIV. Admit it.

Exactly my point. How do you not get that? Dale, I get, but you? Jesus. So easily triggered when it comes to Lard-arse.

Personally, easily the most amusing thing to me about Trump is that he is BY FAR the least conservative and most moderate Republican candidate of likely 90% of our adult lifetimes and the left STILL acts like he's Hitler

Trump is walking talking proof that for the left, simply nut being a Democrat makes you "radical right wing" if you are running for President

The point is, the ONLY reason he didn't get a majority of primary votes is the sheer number of opponents,

WHOMEVER got the nomination could have had the SAME thing said about him.

And, for the record, this isn't a "flaw"

Literally every way of deciding something democratically has a flaw. Nature of the...I don’t wanna call it a beast.

Trump uses Muslims, immigration as a Boogeyman to keep us divided as a country because it would exposure him as a terrible president. Nobody in his base has the balls to challenge him and yet they will quickly cry snowflake. He has bankers in his back pocket with Goldman Sachs. How did a once proud base go from Andrew Jackson to this shitty arse president like Donald Trump? We revolted in 1776 as tyranny to avoid authoritarians and rejected natavism.

Benjamin Franklin warned of the siren's call for power by government officials when he observed that "those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."

PS, we've stagnated in wages since the 1970s. The American dream died a long time ago.


All of this is what is referred to as drivel.

Well, how about some real honest facts...Judicial Watch claims they have "the goods" on Hilary's email cover-up. Tick tock!

I think you are describing Obama and the left. They are making all the boggy men. They are the kinds of the anti-“-ists”.
