Media Not Sure What Trump's Massive Primary Turnout Means
Frontpage Mag ^ | February 17, 2020 | Daniel Greenfield

Massive primary turnout when there's no contest is one of those ambiguous and inexplicable things. Who can know what it portends except the, you know, massive turnout part.

The other thing is, how many would-be Trump primary voters are supporting Trump by voting, Operation Chaos Style, in the Demonrat primary instead? Perhaps a fifth of supposed Demonrat support is actually Trump support.

A lot of those registered Democrats who are going to Trump rallies might only be able to to vote in their state's rat primary or might mistakenly think that they can only vote in the rat primary.

Well, lets give them a toilet bowl brush and let them figure it out.

Their chances are circling the drain and leaving a stinky residue.

My presidential primary is April 28. You better believe I’ll be there to cast my vote for Trump. I would normally never bother with a presidential primary if my candidate was uncontested. But I think we need to make a statement.

So, you’re standing below a massive granite mountain and you see a couple of little rocks bouncing down the slopes right at you. Don’t worry, it’s probably nothing.

We’re just running recon missions to the polling place to make sure the route is clear for November.

There was a band. It was more of a concert.

I was too. Even with the beer and free concert and likely media exaggeration of the numbers, it seems as if Bernie got quite the crowd. It is a little unsettling. But it is WA state, the Vermont of the west.

I will be voting Bernie, unless it looks like getting the texas electors would give him such an overwhelming majority that they don’t cheat him at the Democrat Convention.

I want the socialist wing to be cheated, and feel angry. They have been planning to run their own ticket in 2020 since just after the 2016 Democrat Convention.

Lets goad them into it.

Yes. Give into your hate. Destroy the Democrat Party.

If you look at the Enemy sites, they compare Trump rallies with Party rallies at Nuremberg. I think they are a little disappointed that there are no torchlit marches and book burnings, but they know it's still early in the campaign.

Seriously, they are that separated from reality.

It's truly frightening that our President is that deep, tonight, in the Belly of a hostile Foreign Country...

To be fair, he is the POTUS. Some people come out just to see the POTUS. But, I concede, he’s drew these types of crowds before.

Personally, I think we ain’t seen nothin’ yet. He’s gonna step up and step in big time as we get closer to November. These recent rounds of pardons are just a small signal. Sure, he gave some to the politically connected. But he also gave clemency to some people who have been given what seem to me to be cruel punishment. 35 years (half a life?) for fraud? Hey I want people punished for crimes. But half a lifetime for a financial crime? It’s absurd.

He gave Alice Johnson clemency, and IMO it was the right thing to do. He’ll do more of that.

He’s got North Korea to work on. He’s got a mideast peace plan to push. He’s got China on its knees (whatever the cause of this coranovirus, I think it was just a blunder by a military bioweapons lab but you can’t rule out more sinister actions) all this will be to his advantage.

Like Reagan in 1984, don’t change horses mid-stream.
