You people want to replace voting with polls



Hardly. I just dont think the infighting and fracturing of the party isnt beneficial for any candidate, whether it's Trump or Desantis or whomever. It's not a winning strategy to defeat the democrats in a general election.

Give? No. He's clearly going to be the nominee based on the primary voters.

I'm saying instead of spending millions and millions of dollars amongst all the candidates to fracture the party, we should get behind the guy leading by 50 points. If Trump was up by 10 points I wouldnt have that opinion.





This

I never suggested anything like this during the 2016 campaign because Cruz was legitimate competition

Candidates that get enough support to field a baseball team should drop out now

2) The other "candidates" need to face reality and unite behind Trump



If they disagree with him and see him as as for the country then nah I don't think they should just say frick it a s support him anyways.

he needs to earn support

How much support does Trump need to earn before you guys realize he is going to be the nominee?

Ron needs to earn support. Not Trump.

Regardless, as I've said 100 times before, Trump needs Ron supporters and Ron needs Trump supporters for either one to win a general election.

There are a lot of conservatives that would very much welcome Trump being challenged on his record and ideas. It's understandable why Trump ducked this debate.


OK, then let's see who attacks Trump the most tonight and then see what happens to that guy's next poll numbers.

This is one of the dumbest things posted on here in awhile

Leave Britney alone!!!

Youngkin was asked yesterday if he was considering a run. He declined to answer. You want unity? Start with the guys that are fanning the division. All these guys are just jockeying to take Trump down. They want to beat him this year, so that dont have to run against his VP next cycle.

Their one and only goal should be to beat Biden, and thats the only thing that should come out of their mouth. But after theyve talked long enough, they admit their one and only goal is to force MAGA out of the party

And if you're belief is that DT has the primary wrapped up, what does that tell you should be happening now?

Trump is blowing out the field in the primary but somehow you guys think Ron will win in a general election. It's stunningly idiotic logic. If the primary was close, it would be different.

Above all else, we need to unify behind a candidate and instead we are doing the opposite.

No republican is winning a general election if this continues for another 12 months.

Not Christie or Pence or Haley, right? Just Trump.

For the record, I want Trump to stop the bullshite as well and work on unifying the party.

I understand it perfectly.

Ron is not getting the same election day turnout that Trump will. Hence, he isn't winning. You're delusional if you believe otherwise.

From the left voters? You are correct.

They will come out in droves to vote against Trump.

So.... Trump needs to recognize the other Republicans as legitimate competition, but the other candidates should then stop being competition?


Your reading comprehension sucks. You only got half of what he said right. Try reading the OP again.

You neglected to paste the part of my post where I acknowledged that soft AF MAGA would punish/further punish whoever speaks poorly of the orange messiah.

How many times will this bs be posted. The general is different than the primary

Arizona has a Republican governor and Georgia a Republican senator if different candidates had been nominated
