“Of course it is already dead to the nation, because it does nothing to strengthen it. Why bother?”

That’s my position too. Let Trump be a candidate. He has that right just same as the rest of them, and lately what he’s been saying has a lot of truth in it.
South40 is simply unwilling to allow Trump that right! Ready, Fire, Aim, right South40? I’m sure Trump doesn’t care what you think of him anyway.

South40 is a solid guy. I was a little over the top to make a point.

What he says with Trump is true on the face of it. These are strange times though, and I personally think we have to support people who voice solid policy, even if we don’t think they’ll implement it. Why?

We do it because as they gain support, guess what the other candidates have to do. If they want to gain support, they have to adopt some of the policies of the guy who is peaking.

It’s that simple. So what do our people do? They do their damnedest to destroy the alternate voice for the Liberal Republicans based on personality issues, and other valid observations.

I say we do that entirely too fast. The time to dump Trump is on the way to the primaries, about a month before. It sure isn’t now when good policy has a chance to gain traction.

Trump is the first guy since Buchanan in 2000 to push decent immigration and trade policies.

What’s the goal here, wait another fifteen years?

Good freakin’ grief!

Okay guys, in 2030 we may get another chance. What will the excuse for dumping that guy be? There will be one, I guarantee it.

If you want to ask me a question vette, you might want to ping me, that way I would know.

To address your question; of course he has that right, and I'm fairly certain I never said I didn't. I, too, have the right to voice my opinion of his candidacy, his positions and his history of being a liberal. And that is all I have done here.

I’m sure Trump doesn’t care what you think of him anyway.

And I am certain I wouldn't care if he did.
