Why are there so many trump fans here now?
Did all the smart people give up and move to the woods after 2012?
So many people are so high on their self-righteous standards they don't care if Trump wins or loses, and they only see the now, but some at RPF saw the long game, which even now is being played out.
The country is so badly divided everything is being challenged in court even basic political issues that any American administration should be able to decide. Even questions on a national census, how crazy is that?
The end game for real power in America is the supreme court, why do you think the DNC is fighting so hard to stop Trumps picks. If he wins again he will tilt the scales for decades. A left leaning court could strike down many things libertarians hold dear, even reinterpret the 2nd amendment like Harris is talking about making an executive order to ban guns in some form, that goes to the supreme, and you want conservative judges striking that down as unconstitutional, not some liberals saying "what the founders really meant was only the modern equivalent of the Militia which is the National Guard can own weapons". If that ever happened you might even have a second civil war or military coup as LEO's and current military and ex-military would never willing give up their personal guns in many states.
The long game of power in America is the supreme court, it's sad it has come to this, but it started when they basically picked Bush over Gore in 2000.
I see it and many on RPF see it, as Brain said Trump is a "Douchebag".....BUT if he is picking conservative leaning judges...much can be forgiven.
And really better him, than all these fools that want to give free health care to all illegal immigrants, but some poor 6th generation American black kid from Chicago can't even get a broken arm fixed because he doesn't have the proper coverage.
As for Amash he let his personal dealings with his connections in China with his business take precedent over his own party, he perhaps thought there might be chance to get Trump......but how has every other GOP person that tried this in the last 3 years fared....not well, and he thought he was special...even more special than that traitor Romney who also failed at trying to get Trump.
