“If it is true in 1992, it is true in 2016.

Failing to support one candidate, does not mean a person supports another. You even agree, in the first part of your reply.”

1992 was a 3-man race, so being against one person did not default to being for either of the other 2.

2016 was a 2-man race. There is no way to be against someone from the party you’d normally vote for and not hurt that candidate, and when one candidate is hurt, the other, BY DEFAULT, benefits.

At the time that Trump needed Levin’s support (and as far as I know, Trump never attacked Levin), Paul Ryan and most of the GOP was doing everything they could to kick Trump off the ticket (that was May 2016 to Sept 2016, after Trump had the delegates to be the candidate against Skunk Cabbage)...and the only thing that saved Trump were people on the ground who made it perfectly clear that they would NOT vote for Trump’s replacement, or any other Republican, if Trump were removed. Trump’s replacement in 2016, and the rest of the Republican ticket, would have been CRUSHED...although Levin would have been happy to have some other Republican to vote for.

I do not like broccoli. That does not mean I like brussel sprouts.

Like your tag line. I do also but it becoming aggravating that
stock is so low or unavailable in the stores today. I know it
isn’t so much the stores fault as it is production/distribution
that is causing the problems imo.

Its going to be interesting to see what happens in the food
production industry this coming year. Crops need to be planted
and harvested. In the past a lot of that was done by people coming
in from other countries to work for a few months during that time.
Don’t know what the situation is today with all the disruption from
the past two years.
