    I said it TWICE....now, go celebrate. :)


    BTW, Clinton's up by double digits in Pennsylvania. Remember Trump and Manafort's "Win the Rust Belt States" Strategy?
    :)

    Did you SEE Trump "debate" during the GOP Primaries? Unless there are a half-dozen or more people on the stage....so he can stand there silently....until he lobs a personal insult or praises himself?

    he's got nothing.

    I never thought of that but you are probably right. Of course the moment Tr(oll)mp "punches down" he automatically promotes Johnson to his equal and if Johnson is smart, and he appears to be, he will turn it back on Tr(oll)mp and ask him why he cannot win the support of mainstream Republicans?

    Just that one scenario will give Johnson what he needs to end up on the debate stage because he will be recognized as a "worthy opponent" of Tr(oll)mp and he will rise in the polls at Tr(oll)mp's expense.

    Now the irony would be if Johnson could start beating Tr(oll)mp in the polls before November. Granted Tr(oll)mp would be helping that to happen by throwing hissyfits at rallies and tweeting with his tiny hands until he wears his little fingers down to nubs.

    Yes, the above is pure speculation but it would be so worth the price of admission.

    Johnson will never poll above Trump....except maybe some Blue-Blue-BLUE state like Hawaii.


    But he'll give enough "I can't bring myself to vote for that dangerous idiot, though I hate Hillary too much to vote for her" Republicans and conservatives a "way out".

    They'll be able to HONESTLY say, when Trump loses...and the rest of the Right start PRETENDING that they "never supported Trump" (to distance themselves from the taint of "loser"...as they did with Romney and McCain).....that they didn't vote for Trump.


    Remember there is NO loyalty for losing candidate on the Right. Trump loses in November?....and they get done with their "voter fraud" and "We were sold out by the RNC" stuff in late 2016, early 2017?..

    by April 2017, same guys who praised him, supported him, defended Trump?....

    most of them will say "Of course he lost...he wasn't a REAL conservative!"

    i agree trump is not prepared to debate, most certainly against clinton in a national debate, and worse, he has not even attempted to address the issue.

    We saw his pattern during the Primaries.....

    1. A full debate stage with 16-14-12-10-7 others....and Trump just gave simplistic pap to questions the Mods asked him. Then used personal insults and "Yurrr a looooser" lines to other Repubs who contradicted him.

    2. When it finally came to him, Cruz, and Kasich....Cruz and Kasich looked desperate and again, Trump just filibustered, promised he'd build a Wall on the Moon to stop imports from it and make the Selenites pay for it......Cruz couldn't hit him without alienating Xenophobe/Nativist Repubs....and Kasich was too "John Denver without the specs" nice to go after him.


    so again, Trump skated during a debate.



    Against Hillary? He'll look like a 3rd Grader trying to debate a 3rd year law student at Harvard.

    The major difference between the GOP primaries and the GE will be the audience. Instead of pandering to the extremist right Tr(oll)mp will be forced to come across as reasonable and measured with answers that at least sound credible. In other words it is not a performance for the crowd but a matter of convincing the American people that he is both knowledgeable and worthy of the position.

    To date he hasn't said anything that comes even close and in one-on-one interviews he has appeared to be ignorant of even the fundamentals. In the debates there is the opening and closing statements. Will Tr(oll)mp read from the teleprompter or just waffle? When it comes to the indepth aspects, where can be no teleprompter, how will he handle "gotcha" questions from the media such as the one from Megan Kelly? When he is placed on the defensive about alienating so many Americans and our allies how will he react because it is those reactions that are what matter.

    It will take solid, nonstop coaching between now and the first debate to get him ready because it is more than just a lack of subject matter knowledge but of coming across as a leader of We the People.

    And yes, he needs to do all of the above while still defending states like GA from Hillary.

    He's much more of a "liberal conservative" than a libertarian, and I'm not exactly thrilled that he won the nomination, but he's infinitely better than the crap both major parties have offered.

    You do realize the only reason they have all these bogus polls is because the establishment of the republican party is working with the establishment of the democrat party to figure out a way to put a different republican in. One can already see the signs as they slip in articles through the various globalist media. "Republicans looking for a way to replace Trump!", "Trump might drop out!"

    PRECISELY BECAUSE THEY'RE WORRIED HE MIGHT ACTUALLY WIN.

    The Ivory Tower is as far from the pulse as Louis XVI.

    I don't know if them realizing their programming machine no longer works is a good thing, or a bad thing.

    Historically, people wising up in power isn't the outcome. I think it will be really bad if she gets in.

    They have got to know they can't leave things as they are for Chelsea's generation to finish up.

    It will never happen.

    After what a pain in the ass this cycle has been for the elite, there's simply no way we have free internet after her 1st 4 years.

    That is more guaranteed than TPP and another middle east war.
