“Now just for sh*ts and giggles, name the last sitting President to be denied renomination for a second term by his party.”

LBJ. His own party’s kingpins told him not to seek re-election. So, although he was not “primaried” in the true sense of the word, he got the message and voluntarily withdrew.

And, oh; what is your problem with the name calling? Typical bully. You remind me of the overweight lard-asses in my grade school in the 1950s, literally throwing their weight around until some skinny ass kid with an attitude kicked your sorry asses, and you ran crying home to your mothers.

If you want to have a rational adult conversation, then let’s have it. However, if you want to remain in grade school you’ll be there alone.

We'll dispense with this first:

"Give your head a shake pal"

Oh I can see where that might have hurt your delicate sensitivities.

"Hey, snark. I guess you were against Ronald Reagan challenging Ford in 1976."

'Snark', looks like you began that abominable 'name calling' first.

And I responded in kind:

"No dumb ass, I wasn’t. I worked in Reagan’s campaign in ‘76 AND in ‘80, and ‘84.
I was pointing out the difficulty of overcoming the advantage of incumbency.
Give your head a shake.

"Hey, knuckledragger..."

Just like Pogo, 'you has met the enemy and he is you'.
Guess you'll have to run home crying to your mother now.

Moving right along...

Name your source. What 'kingpins'?

So, although he was not “primaried” in the true sense of the word, he got the message and voluntarily withdrew.

So, you are citing an event that isn't even applicable. Had Johnson chosen to run for another term, there is little doubt that the Democratic Party would have renominated him, and you know that. 'Clean Gene' didn't have a prayer and even Gene knew it.

If you want to have a rational adult conversation, then let’s have it. However, if you want to remain in grade school you’ll be there alone.

Physician heal thyself.
