Interpretation?
The handwriting has long since appeared on the wall: Establishment Republicans and Washington insiders are absolutely determined to steal the nomination from Donald Trump.
I guess the cartoonist is saying one possible outcome might be another Abe Lincoln. Let’s just say I’m not holding my breath on that. Actually, I half expected the artist to depict something between a Wild West Shootout and Hieronymus Bosch’s extremely weird painting called Garden Of Earthly Delights.
It looks like bloodshed and death for 600,000 people? It looks like statism and misery followed by the ascension of Robber Barons?
It looks like a vastly expanded Federal Leviathan that no longer respects the founding principles?
Well, let us hope not.
A contested convention in 2016 will give us a dignified LOSER the GOPe can be proud of but who the American people will suffer because of.
well that contested convention got us not just Abraham Lincoln
it also got us a civil war ( or the war between the states for you folks of the Southern persuasion)
I called my Congressman & told his office that if Trump gets the votes, but not the delegates, I am switching to Declined To State & voting against my Congressman. The lady said it wasn’t the Congressman’s fault & I told her that that it has to start somewhere. If it’s not his fault, then he better get word to the GOPe, because I’m starting with him.
I suggest everyone do the same with their Congressman.
Let’s open our eyes. It is a skull...the death of Lincoln’s Republican Party.
Ramirez seems to dislike Trump.
This is how stupid EveningStar and the rest of the Cuck-Establishment is. They seriously think that a contested convention is going to produce a super hero like Abe Lincoln. Just you wait. Paul Ryan is going to free all those little establishment pundits, lawyers and other assorted grafters from the slavery of a real job.
We’ll get a two faced fascist butcher as President?
Lincoln was before television. The voters are going to see this sausage being made up close and personal. The Republican brand won’t survive that.
Oh Great!
That guy oversaw the bloodiest war in U.S. History! It cost the lives of around 620,000. A recent study puts the number of dead as high as 850,000. The lower number constitutes about 2.5% of the population in the 1860’s
To put that into perspective if we lost 2.5% of the population that would be around 8,750,000.
Perhaps we should avoid a brokered convention and just nominate Trump. He has the best chance to win.
If you don’t believe that tell me what candidate on the Republican side can win any state that Romney did not win in 2012?
This is the stupid site; what better result than to get half of your opponent’s political party to mistrust and deride the other based solely paranoid scenarios. One genius here not even identifying Abraham Lincoln. The Democrat created meme of GOPe is working.
Was Lincoln born in Canada?
Did Lincoln’s mom have to choose which nation he would be a citizen of?
Did Lincoln find out he was a Canadian citizen when he was 43?
Did Lincoln renounce his Canadian citizenship at 43 years of age?
Hmmm...
I’m going to have to read more about Lincoln I guess.
And what followed was a bloody civil war.
