That certainly wouldn’t surprise me. Things were different then, we didn’t have access to the level of teeth-clenching by the GOPe back then, but I have NO DOUBT that they had the same level of fear with Reagan, and the way he started out from the gate made them that more desperate to stop him...even if that meant with a bullet.
I live in Maine, so I know that Lincoln’s vice president during his first term was Hannibal Hamlin of Bangor, Maine,
and Andrew Johnson was Lincoln’s VP during his abbreviated partial second term. Didn’t have to look it up.
Singapore caning sounds good for these people.
Rush is a (barely) closeted #Never Trump guy.
That’s because President Reagan picked Bush 1 as his running mate, to keep him close, as Bush 1 was part of the elite gang.
March??? Of what Century??? And what Country???
These delegates should just move on to the Democratic Party, and stop bothering the millions and millions of voters for Trump.
Proceedings should begin the day she gets elected.
“That’s funny. Earlier in the year the Trump people accused Rush of support Cruz, and the Cruz people complained he was support Trump. Sounds about right.
Rush has repeatedly said he’s Anybody But Hillary, and he’s also repeatedly said he will actively support the nominee. But that due to his position, he will not support anybody until then.”
The difference is that the Trump people were correct, and the Cruz people were delusional. In fact, Rush made fun of Trump, hung up on callers who supported him and took great delight in reading every anti-Trump article he could get his hands on (which wasn’t hard, since the media was churning them out 24/7) - all the while proclaiming that Ted Cruz was “the ideal conservative” and dismissing the idea that Cruz would ever lie about anything.
Now that the contest is over (knock on wood), however, I’d expect him to come out and support our candidate. If he has, it’s been about as enthusiastic as Paul Ryan’s endorsement (which is basically tantamount to no endorsement at all).
Of course, to be fair, I don’t listen to Rush every day, so he might have endorsed Trump and I’m simply unaware of it. I’m happy to be corrected, if that’s the case.
How much say does the Presidential candidate of either party really have in picking his running mate? How many times were VP choices more or less forced on the Presidential candidate. Seems that only when an incumbant is running for a second term does the President show any outright support before the election cycle begins.
Ward heeler turds.
Ted promised not to lie.
The rest of us, including yourself I’m sure, know it is imperative to bar Hillary from the White House. These nevertrumpers want to lose.
Trump’s a long way from perfect but he’s light years ahead of Clinton. It’s a quandary how they can fight Trump, now that the GOP contest is over, and claim to be conservatives.
No, be isn’t. He endorses no one prior to the convention. He tries to remain unbiased on the air. I always thought he liked Trump from the start.
Of course they are not conservatives. They have infiltrated the GOP for just this kind of moment where they hope to assist Hillary.
These Jack holes should have just worked on getting their candidate elected....oh but then they tried and couldn’t
The voters don’t want your kind
LMAO...”street cred” does not come by hiring a damn democrat.
Get lost, scum.
I so agree with you!!
I like West!!
