you think its all good because he got rich
who did trump get his loans from? through a corporation formed for his ventures - the ones that went bankrupt cost him nothing - his successes sure did enrich him though
cruz took 100% collateralized loans and paid them back
you cannot see the inanity of your argument
trump got democrapz elected - to enrich himself - you say yea
as you beg those democrapz for lifesaving healthcare - take comfort in this - trump won't be begging at the altar of government for his life - he has the money
It was more than infuriating. It was the straw on the camel’s back to me. I turned the radio, calmed down and then came here to see how others took it.
I cannot understand the depth of animosity that Levin has for Trump. This is something deeper than Levin’s support of Cruz.
Conservatives make up 40% of the active voters.
prove how trump would have voted
like on abortion - it flip flops
like only raping once - instead of 100 times
I can only prove how Ted Cruz voted, and I realize you won’t keep your mind focused on the Corker Bill, because Cruz’s vote on that is really indefensible, so I am just going to leave you to ramble on to yourself now, because quite frankly, you are boring me.
Thank you for playing, better skill next time.
Says who? Not a single vote has been cast yet. Cruz is in second place. Trump has a sizable lead but NOT a majority. Anything can happen in politics. A little bit of time can shift everything.
for all the condemnation thrown out on ‘purist’ - I suppose they are talking about you
later one issue chris
next time address the 1000 sins of trump instead of the one you have on cruz
You can address Trump sins if you want to.
I addressed Cruz’s sin, and you can’t respond to it in any sort of intelligent way.
I can only conclude that Cruz’s vote for the Corker Bill is okay with you, and that’s fine.
The only thing that upsets me is he did not make more money. He has a great service he is offering the world. Some of the greatest real estate in the world.
You sound more like Bernie Sanders than a conservative.
Cruz debates, Trump does.
I have not defended cruz on that
I can believe you can see no other explanation so you ‘conclude’ I supported that vote
you have one sin on cruz and obsess on it - who would be a better choice?
its YOUR candidate that abuses eminent domain - taking private property from others so HE can get rich
and I am the socialist?
trump does - with bank loans that he defaults on when he fails - gets rich when they succeeds
no one believes trump has done anything out of altruism - just you
Conservatives make up 40% of the active voters.
Specify granularity. Primary/General? "Red/Blue" states?
Rush has pushed the myth we are a Conservative country, when we probably never were a third. The traditional and perhaps apocryphal ideological division at the founding was 1/3 traitor, 1/3 patriot, 1/3 retard.
33-33-33 has evolved over different eras with roughly corresponding to (D)-(R)-(I) or (L)-(C)-(I) and proposed distributions from 40-40-20 or 40-30-30 or 30-30-40. Very rough numbers because there simply are no firm data points to collect. But there is practical evidence of this, as it mathematically sets the upper bound for either party at just over 60% ( by obtaining all the Independent votes ) and the largest popular vote totals have exactly matched that hypothesis ( FDR, LBJ, Nixon, Reagan ).
When you say 40% that might indicate around 1984 at our peak thanks to Reagan, when he pulled in many crossover (D) and all the (I) and I remember these polls saying the Liberals were down to 20% and on their way out ( hardly ). This is pretty much what Rush has stuck in his mind however and it ignores what the enemy has been doing since 1965. It also ignores Reagan's own amnesty which backfilled the queue for later naturalizations.
The sad truth is we are a minority of a minority. There are more (D) than (R), and within (R) we are below 50%. Blue dogs have almost all crossed over by now so we are mostly within (R) or in some states like mine, we actually have a strong (C) in New York.
I hope you don't think that Conservatives make up 40% of ALL active voters, because that would mean that (R)epublicrat RINOs are a figment of our imaginations. Alas, conservatives probably are at the lowest level for many years, and decreasing daily thanks to demographic shift from naturalizations of replacement Americans. I would guess that in the general election the sum total of conservatives would range from a quarter to a third now, 25% to 30% likely.
As we are staggered throughout the USA, you still have to imagine the twelve battleground states on the table. Do you run the guy specifically appealing to 25% to 30% of their voters? Why would we expect anything different result on election night than last time?
“I can only conclude that Cruz’s vote for the Corker Bill is okay with you, and that’s fine.”
That is what I said, and that is my conclusion. If my conclusion is wrong, feel free to steer me in the right direction. So far, all you have done is ramble in a pointless manner about Trump, who had not a thing to do with Cruz’ vote on the Corker Bill.
“you have one sin on cruz and obsess on it - who would be a better choice?”
It’s a pretty big sin, don’t you think? I notice Levin never talks about it. It’s not a fun thing to talk about.
And as to who would be a better choice?
Oh, I don’t know, someone who didn’t use their elected position of power to flip the Senate Treaty Provision on it’s head so our president could make a deal with a terrorist nation maybe?
well all billionaires rape so its ok
I only have problems with people talking about praying for the country as they make excuses for the sinners destroying it
I don't care if she was offered a trillion for a cracker - the cracker was hers to keep or sell - you miss that point
and I have no problem with success - was it you hating on goldman sachs?
don’t care what your conclusion is - I was pointing out that you trump supporters base your conclusions on information you don’t have - like a liberal
so the answer to my question is who?
Trump started the fighting, and don't say he wants to win. If he argued conservatism, i would have no problem voting for him. Instead, he attacked like a libtard...the birther thing was the last straw and made me oppose him.
Ridiculous. Of course he wants to win. It's what he does. Folks that hate him like you don't like the fact he is trying to win and I can understand that.
Who struck first? Well they each point to each other. Whatever. It was going to happen unless you can think of some way to win without a battle ( that's kind of our problem, wouldn't you say? ).
The "birther" thing was going to come out, you know that right? Or did you actually believe he could keep hidden the fact that he was born in Canada? That is as dumb as President DUI ( Bush43 hiding his arrest, not that it was a big deal, but he tried to hide it! ). Try to imagine the October surprise that Cruz would have gotten and played you for by not saying anything. Trump *did* do him a favor. If you cannot understand this then you essentially wanted to try to fool the electorate and the media.
Whether you like the "birther" thing or not is your God given right. The Supreme Court punted it back to We The People to decide for ourselves. You have every right to vote for a President Of The United States born in Canada, Kenya, Russia, Iran, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Libya, Bangladesh ... Just make sure he is 35 years old, mmmkay? We do not want to let someone in there unqualified.
oh I see - principles are flexible for a president - electing your political opponents is ok if you are getting richlike only raping once - instead of 100 times
Please quote what you are replying to, it is a minor courtesy but very helpful, is that difficult? I always do that for others like you.
I have no clue what this is about.
My answer to your question is contained in my last post-
"Oh, I don't know, someone who didn't use their elected position of power to flip the Senate Treaty Provision on it's head so our president could make a deal with a terrorist nation maybe?"
You should be able to take that and deduce who I am going to support, but since you seem to need it spelled out for you-
TRUMP!
