Fair enough.
What if Trump loses the Primary, but refuses to speak at the Convention?
Well, then, it was obviously rigged and stolen. Trump can’t lose. Right?
If I don’t get my way I’m going to hold my breath like a 2 year old.
Nope. Some people like it just the way it is.
Not that if they believe in Free & Fair elections is a deal breaker for you & you won't vote for them.
If I have that right, then I agree with you. Everyone should want free & fair elections, including candidates.🙂
By stating just free & fair elections, and the question being what is your deal breaker, it left room to make it unclear what you were really saying, which is why I had asked for clarification. 🙂
Thanks you.
You are correct. My apologies for the quick, vague answer. I believe our elections are corrupted where loopholes are exploited and verification processes are dismissed. 2020 was a disgrace. I want our next president to acknowledge this and vow to fix it. It’s a deal breaker for me because without it, “we the people” cannot pick our representatives. It’s the foundation of our democracy.
Election Integrity...
You argue that 2020 was not a crapshow, you are a co consiprator to the crime as far as I’m concerned.
Oh no problem, I just wanted to verify that what I hoped was what you meant was in reality what you had meant. 🙂 👍
Multiple dealbreakers:
1) Candidates that support RINOs like Kevin McCarthy and Ronna McDaniel
2) Candidates that tell Feinstein to add her assault weapons ban to a piece of legislation circulating around Congress
3) Candidates who think 6-week abortion limits are “too harsh” and wish to negotiate a federal protection of abortion for X weeks (as long as it is longer than 6 weeks)
4) Candidates who think Cuomo did a good job during the Wuhan Virus
1) Amnesty without a completed wall
2) Refusal to use tariffs in trade negotiations
3) Refusal to pardon Jan 6 protesters
4) Refusal to pardon Trump if convicted
5) Chris Christie
6) Mike Pussy Pence
7) Neocon Nikki Haley
My deal breaker? Any candidate endorsed by deep state establishment back-stabbing RINOs such as Jeb Bush, George Bush, Paul Ryan,, Karl Rove, John Sununu, et al. THAT candidate will campaign hard on conservative promises that the establishment will NEVER allow him to keep. I’m looking at you DeSantis.
If that’s what you believe, you’ve been misled.
Prove me wrong
DeSantis has enacted policies that are against the RINO Establishment. He has enacted policies that are against his own donors. His record, as a Member of Congress and then as Governor, proves he is anything but Establishment.
Then WHY are the deep-pocket deep-state establishment RINOs lining up behind him and endorsing him? Bush, Jr., Jeb, Rove, Sununu, Ryan. WHY are THEY lining up and endorsing him if he is anti-establishment? What do you know that the rest of us don’t? From the outside, DeSantis looks like he is the deep-state establishment’s boy this cycle. He must very publicly disavow their support or the stench of back-stabbing career RINOs will continue to emanate from his campaign.
That’s something the Trumpers keep saying, but I’ve seen NO evidence of it.
Then you are not paying attention
