One down, fifty six to go.
Time for some Weld/Walsh whining.
I have some cheese with that whine!
Bob Inglis: Max RINO. And loser.
They’re free to run as Democrats.
This is a 6 of one half dozen of the other in terms of this affecting Trump being the nominee....
However, the Party is the Party, it has every right to decide what to do, it is insane that the court should be able to force them to do something.
Well, if they want to make the state party blow money on something they know is pointless, then that is just stupid.
That means I can vote in the Democratic Primary now. South Carolina you can choice which primary you want to vote in.
Who should I vote for?
Which one would mess things up?
What is Trump afraid of????
I don’t think this is a smart idea. Yes, it means some anti-Trumper or RINO is deprived of a South Carolina primary election campaign, but as I don’t expect Trump would lose it anyway I think a non-election is never a good idea.
Political parties can select candidates in whatever manner they wish. There is no presumption that there needs to be a primary election in the first place.
Wait! We haven’t heard from Paul Ryan, William Weld or Bill Kristol! I mean these are serious GOP contenders!!
HA HA HA HA HA HA
Oh, great. A judicial coronation.
Are these people f'ing nuts? There is minuscule opposition to the nomination of Trump for reelection. It is a waste of time and money to conduct Rep primaries for President.
The Bush people tried this kind of thing when Pat Buchanan was running in '92 and it was tried when Reagan was challenging Ford in 76. A day will come again when re-nominating our party's incumbent is not necessarily a good idea. Open and competitive primaries are healthy for our party and our nation.
Patriots are reminded that the Constitution, particularly the 12th Amendment, says nothing about political parties or primary elections.
Excerpted from the 12th Amendment: "The Electors shall meet in their respective states, and vote by ballot for President and Vice-President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves; they shall name in their ballots the person voted for as President, and in distinct ballots the person voted for as Vice-President [emphasis added]; […], and they shall make distinct lists of all persons voted for as President, and of all persons voted for as Vice- President, and of the number of votes for each, which lists they shall sign and certify, and transmit sealed to the seat of the government of the United States, directed to the President of the Senate"
In fact, not only did primary elections not get started until the 1900s, but they are a product of the anti-constitutional republic Progressive Movement imo.
United States presidential primary (history)
The reason that probably most patriots today accept primary elections as constitutional is that we grew up with this constitutionally baseless process and consequently wrongly think that primaries are “somehow” constitutional.
Note that the main obstacles originally preventing the Progressive Movement from destroying the constitutional republic by mob rule is the fact that the Founding States never gave ordinary citizen voters the specific constitutional power to vote for federal senators or POTUS.
So the ill-conceive 17th Amendment was a victory for Progressive Movement mob rule of the Senate, desperate Democratic mantra to get rid the of the electoral college to establish mob rule of the Oval Office the remaining holdout.
Also, since the states have never expressly given ordinary citizens the express constitutional power to vote for POTUS, technically speaking any state can revoke this politically correct “right” any time it wants to, depending on the judge imo.
Finally, since no evidence found so far of Congress having given the states permission to adopt the rules of the political parties, not only are the states violating the Constitution's prohibition on agreements and compacts with political parties (1.10.3), but state winner-take all laws violate 12th Amendment despite Democratic hypocritical "every vote counts" mantra imo.
"Article I, Section 10, Clause 3: No State shall, without the Consent of Congress, lay any Duty of Tonnage, keep Troops, or Ships of War in time of Peace, enter into any Agreement or Compact with another State [emphasis added], or with a foreign Power, or engage in War, unless actually invaded, or in such imminent Danger as will not admit of delay."
Excerpted from the 12th Amendment: "The Electors shall meet in their respective states, and vote by ballot for President and Vice-President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves; they shall name in their ballots the person voted for as President, and in distinct ballots the person voted for as Vice-President, and they shall make distinct lists of all persons voted for as President, and of all persons voted for as Vice- President, and of the number of votes for each, which lists they shall sign and certify, and transmit sealed to the seat of the government of the United States, directed to the President of the Senate [emphasis added]; […]"
Corrections, insights welcome.
So when are voters going to emancipate themselves from the corrupt political parties by supporting PDJT in leading the states to repeal the 16th and 17th Amendments?
Remember in November!
MAGA! Now KAG! (Keep America Great!)
"The “Holy Grail” of organized crime is to control government power to tax." —me
"The power to tax involves the power to destroy," —Chief Justice John Marshall, McCulloch v. Maryland, 1819.
"The 16th Amendment effectively repealed the involuntary servitude aspect of the 13th Amendment imo, evidenced by unconstitutional federal taxes." —me
"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States." —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
"13th Amendment, Section 1:
Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude [emphasis added], except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction."
"16th Amendment:
The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration."
"The constitutionally undefined political parties are basically rival, corrupt voter unions, “union dues” paid by means of unconstitutional federal taxes. Belonging to a political party means that you are a subject, not a member.” —me
"Patriots need to support PDJT in demanding that Congress moves "April 15" tax day to the day before election day." —me
"The smart crooks long ago figured out that getting themselves elected to federal office to make unconstitutional tax laws to fill their pockets is a much easier way to make a living than robbing banks." —me
"Federal career lawmakers probably laugh all the way to the bank to deposit bribes for putting loopholes for the rich and corporations in tax appropriations laws, Congress actually not having the express constitutional authority to make most appropriations laws where domestic policy is concerned. Such laws are based on stolen state powers and uniquely associated stolen state revenues." —me
The Russians are at it already, eh?/s
“Progressive Era reformers looked to the primary election as a way to measure popular opinion of candidates, as opposed to the opinion of the bosses.”
“Florida enacted the first presidential primary in 1901. The Wisconsin direct open primary of 1905 was the first to eliminate the caucus and mandate direct selection of national convention delegates. In 1910, Oregon became the first state to establish a presidential preference primary, which requires delegates to the National Convention to support the winner of the primary at the convention. By 1912, twelve states either selected delegates in primaries, used a preferential primary, or both. By 1920 there were 20 states with primaries, but some went back, and from 1936 to 1968, 12 states used them.”

Does anyone know what other states have suspended their R primaries?
I remember Ronna McDaniels stating that the Republican party would not entertain any challengers to Trump.
So they were warned.
Primary Romney, Collins and Murkowski. We are not done yet.
So much winning!
And so much Dem/RINO whining!
