TRUMP NOMINATED. NY PUSHES HIM OVER THE TOP
yep
GO TRUMP!!!!!
It is legal, yes.
In the old days it was done quite a bit.
Basically it is a claim by the delegation chairman that the votes aren’t counted yet.
Using the court, they will come up with some policy that if you have guns, you either bring them in or they will cut off anything federal you get. Medicare, retirement pensions (military and civilian), welfare, social security, disability checks, you name it. They will hold them till you turn in the guns that they have records you have purchased. THE ONLY THING YOU CAN DO is purchase a gun from someone else where there is no paper work exchange. Only having that Unregistered gun, will you have the ability to protect yourself and your family.
This IS THE MOST IMPORTANT election EVER. We always say that, BUT this one IS.
I am a Christian. If you are a Christian, TELL all your Christian friends they have to VOTE. We cannot have 40 million Christians sitting out this election. They have to go vote for Donald Trump. We are NOT electing a pope, a senior pastor, head honcho in our churches. We are electing a man to RUN THE COUNTRY. We HAVE to chose the best person and of these two, Donald Trump TRUMPS Hillary the Communist Beast Klinton. Tell your Christian friends to GO VOTE!!! Get the word out. Just remember this, Hillary and the commies are also coming to shut down pastors from preaching against the homos, etc., from our pulpits. So, this IS about religious FREEDOM also. Go VOTE!!! GET the word out. TELL all your Christian friends AND their non-Christian family members who might have sat it out also. GET THE WORD OUT!!! NOW!
Something I have been telling conservatives for years is that this sentiment isn't true. It is over, but it's clear to me that we really completely blew it in 2012. That's when it was all over. The country embraced Obama a second time, sealing our fate.
We totally backed the wrong horses in Romney & Ryan. They weren't the men for the job (and still aren't). I don't blame them - I blame us.
For now, take what we can get. If Trump advances on just one important conservative goal, it's more than the GOP has done in 25 years. So be it. It is what it is.
Exactly, NEVERTrump will now go to plan B. That’s working to elect Hillary.
First, sorry for the late reply.
Next, no, I did not interpret your comments in any idiotically literal way. I am fully aware that we do not posses time machines, thank you very much.
I merely point out that if Trump wins, there will be no return to 1980, either literal or metaphorical. I’ll give the Bushes this: when Jebby said the “era of Reagan is over,” he was right. It’s probably the one point of agreement I have with that Nancy boy.
But let’s distinguish here: when Jebby asserted that the era of Reagan is over, he said it with a hopeful optimism; he meant that the “house of Bush” was ascendant. When I say the era of Reagan is over, I say it with the heaviest of hearts. The era of Reagan is over because the country of Reagan is dying. Piously invoking Reagan’s name and legacy do nothing to obscure this fact. I wish it were otherwise, but I’m convinced that it’s not.
The moral tenor of the American people has changed, and that changes everything. Progressive revolutionaries have occupied all three branches of government, making Congressional elections almost irrelevant. The progressives’ full-court press in education, entertainment, and news reporting has destroyed the American story in the souls of two generations of youth. Combine these facts with the eclipse of religion, and I don’t see that we have any possibility of restoring the America of 1980, or even 1990, much less 1776.
A Trump victory gives us a chance to regroup and start the multi-generational project of cleaning out the Augean stables. I can see our country going through a number of fundamental changes that might involve a new constitutional order in the coming decades. These could very well promote human flourishing and virtue.
The problems we face now are WAY beyond the power of elections, or mere politics, to solve. They are, in my opinion, beyond the unaided efforts of human beings to solve. I’m not saying we should opt out of political action, only that I have no illusions about the efficacy of elections. We should help Trump get elected, but we should pray that God will intervene and guide our course. He really is our only hope now.
From a purely secular point of view, yes.

It is beyond the realm of politics. Even if Mr. Trump was elected tomorrow, we are called to take America back not only via the political buy by and most important, the spiritual.
You could be right, and this was posted here a few months ago:

You’ve got a hide. That’s a good thing to have if one is going to stroll the jungle of online forums.
Take care, warrior.
Saw an Article on Yahoo where the writer is still calling Trump the “presumptive” nominee.
That’s your assessment.
Yes, wholly agree.
According to Wikipedia the O’jays are still performing (they must be eighty years old by now), Mr. Trump needs to see if they will do a new version of this classic https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2syR4On4xDI and change the title from Love Train to Trump Train. If they don’t want to do it get clearance to use the song and get someone else to sing it. It would be perfect in my opinion.
I have the utmost confidence that you WILL recover from this devastating blow and go on to even greater heights but you may need to reconsider your source of motivation.
Let us pray that this may be avoided; and if it cannot be avoided, that the crisis may be mitigated and short.
The greatest spokesman for a just cause is one who has seen the light and turned from his initial mistake to fight for the right. No one else speaks so convincingly against cigarettes as a reformed smoker who knows firsthand of the inpossibility of any good result to come from it.
I do believe that right now, with this natioin so badly is divided, and I so much lately that reminds me of both 1968 and 1980 as I was around both those years. So many memores flood my mind this time around. My big concern is that things could very well can come apart.
