Graham is the poster for ending South Carolina's right to vote lol.

 

[Aratus]

Riiiight. That's why I put "endorses" in quotes, because I wanted people to think Graham was serious.

GUNNY --- THE HORRID THOUGHT IS THAT HE JUST DID A DRESS REHEARSAL FOR THIS SUMMER!
HIS LIL OLE SKIT TO AN ALMOST CAPTIVE AUDIENCE SUGGESTS 50/50 ODDs THAT A COOL DISH
OF AULD FASHION"d CROW LOOMS, HE WILL BE EATING IT, AS PRESIDENT UNDERWOOD SERVES IT.
http://www.nydailynews.com/entertai...esident-announcement-debate-article-1.2466784 truth is sometimes stranger than fiction!

Looks like Gunny is right. You started it. Carry on.

FFS dude, that was clearly a joke. I was making fun of both of us for going back and forth like children. And it didn't start in this thread. To be honest, I don't remember who started. I am the only one who tried to end it amicably though.

 

[misterx]

No, you did not offer a truce, you demanded my capitulation. And nobody has been more insulting of intelligence in this thread than you. This is why I keep saying that it is blatantly obvious how you Trumpaloompas are delusional. If you are an example of what Trump on the brain does to a fellow, I'd rather take a bullet to the head.

I said, "I'll call truce if he will". Anyways, I will stop with the personal attacks now, and I hope you will too.

 

[groverblue]

You guys need to stop fighting. This is not productive.

It's more productive than blindly following a fraud like Trump.

No one is blindly following him. Those of us who are backing him are well aware of his faults. It is the anti-Trump zealots who are blind in their opposition.

It is very interesting to see that the vast majority of counterarguments against Trump, like this one, are so blatantly dishonest. Extremely telling how low the ammunition must be in that quiver.

 

[thoughtomator]

Because this forum is obsessed with gay republicans?

Oh great, now we're going to end up with a Rubio forum.

Here is the recommended avatar pick for the anti-Trump zealots. Their efforts effectively amount to campaigning for her.

Well that could be said about you Trumpsters too, we're Paulites here, if you're not with us you're against us! You cant steal Rands talking point.

If that was wrong when George Bush said it, it's wrong when you say it.

I just said the same thing he said. I can steal Kahless's talking point, if he can steal Rand's. Rand originally said during the first debate that if you support Trump you're supporting Hillary.

Rand was wrong, Hillary can't beat Trump. Sanders might.

Rand dropped out the race. Trump is the only one that can actually beat Hillary Clinton verses not voting, writing in or a minor party vote. Actively campaigning against Trump at this point means you are making a choice between a candidate actively pursuing curtailing our 2nd amendment rights vs Trump as someone who was a long time ago similar on assault weapons but now is actively defending 2nd amendment rights and in fact going a step further by proposing to remove barriers.

Hillary Clinton
https://www.hillaryclinton.com/issues/gun-violence-prevention/

- Keep military-style weapons off our streets. Military-style assault weapons do not belong on our streets. They are a danger to law enforcement and to our communities. Hillary will work to keep assault weapons off our streets and supports reinstating the assault weapons ban.
- Make straw purchasing a federal crime.
- Repeal the gun industry’s unique immunity protection.
- Comprehensive federal background check legislation.
- Closing the “Charleston Loophole.” Hillary will push Congress to close the loophole that allows a gun sale to proceed without a completed background check if that check has not been completed within three days.
- Tightening the gun show and Internet sales loophole if Congress won’t.
-Support legislation to stop domestic abusers from buying and possessing guns. Although federal law generally prohibits domestic abusers from purchasing or possessing guns, this protection does not apply to people in dating relationships or convicted stalkers. Hillary will fight for legislation to prohibit all of these domestic abusers and stalkers from buying guns.

Donald Trump

GUN AND MAGAZINE BANS. Gun and magazine bans are a total failure. That’s been proven every time it’s been tried. Opponents of gun rights try to come up with scary sounding phrases like “assault weapons”, “military-style weapons” and “high capacity magazines” to confuse people. What they’re really talking about are popular semi-automatic rifles and standard magazines that are owned by tens of millions of Americans. Law-abiding people should be allowed to own the firearm of their choice. The government has no business dictating what types of firearms good, honest people are allowed to own.

NATIONAL RIGHT TO CARRY. The right of self-defense doesn’t stop at the end of your driveway. That’s why I have a concealed carry permit and why tens of millions of Americans do too. That permit should be valid in all 50 states. A driver’s license works in every state, so it’s common sense that a concealed carry permit should work in every state. If we can do that for driving – which is a privilege, not a right – then surely we can do that for concealed carry, which is a right, not a privilege

pursuing curtailing our 2nd amendment

Let any of those crazy motherfuckers vying for power try to take my 2nd amendment rights. I double dog dare them. Only I can protect those rights.

Sanders is generally likable and not aggressive. Trump will not be able to land blows like he could against Hillary.

 

[nikcers]

Trump is the only one that can actually beat Hillary Clinton

Almost every poll says the opposite, his just isn't to beat Clinton though, it's to make sure she wins. A Trump nominee guarantees people like me won't vote Republican.

We haven't seen Trump go fully at Hillary yet.
What candidate can beat Hillary on the GOP side, if not Trump? Any polls to back it up?

Trump has national name recognition that Cruz and Rubio don't have. So, out of the gate, he has that going for him.

The one candidate left that I know could beat Hillary is Vermin Supreme. I don't need a poll to tell me he can. He tells me what I want to hear, and once more Americans hear his plans, he'll win in a massive landslide victory that nobody can see coming.

People like you are far outnumbered by blue collar democrats who will vote for Trump.
