Ron Paul: Trump Will Win GOP Nomination

so, I have no problem with an obvious prediction - that makes the current move to purge the election 2016 subforum of trump posts look silly, and the temper tantrum of children,

but is there more to the article? It's like one sentence. Is this a tweet or something?
 
No. And I don't prefer Trump over Hillary. They are both equally bad.

I could easily understand if there was a Liberty candidate running, and I can't push too much because there has been Presidential Elections where I too haven't even voted at all, nothing personal, but if they are so comparable wouldn't it be more responsible to try to at least get something out of the election even if it's not a great President, like others have said, a strategic move to weaken the current dominant "party" to upgrade our choices at a later date?

Again, for the umpteenth time, Hillary will just be a right-wing Obama, she has so much history that she is so easy to see that I can't believe anyone would support her and the people that do nothing but attack Trump are just rooting for Hillary (like it or not)..... it gets to the point where you are either being played by the system or not and if you drop out totally then you have been conquered.... but at least you're proud of it......

....doing nothing but being so proud all the time is nothing but worshiping yourself and trying to get credit for it....

"With a negative connotation, pride refers to an inflated sense of one’s personal status or accomplishments."

Not to worry: my state will be bright red, with or without me. I will sleep better at night knowing I didn't contribute to the mess that will surely follow, no matter which one of these mistakes is elected.
 
Lew is stating the obvious, with or without Kasich hanging around, Cruz lost this thing when he lost the entire southeast. You can't win the nomination based solely on caucus states and the heartland.

There you go again, saying you aren't contributing but slamming a certain candidate on a daily basis.... so if Hillary gets in there and starts warring you're not going to take any responsibility? Just because you don't vote does not mean that you didn't contribute your pros and cons into the world and influence peoples thought patterns, including their votes. You support her here, under the table, with fervor.
 
Did you not understand the meme?

Poor title and not what you're thinking it means. Just watch and say your piece.

Yes, how do we know Trump isnt taking Rand's "surprise freedom" strategy to a whole new level?

Rand may have been playing Chess but trump is playing Go

Do you not understand how presidential elections work? I already told you my state will be red (as in, Republican, if you didn't catch my meaning.) My vote for or against the Republican candidate would be a drop in a very large bucket of red paint...the GOP could nominate Mickey Mouse and my state would vote for the rodent. That doesn't mean I have to join them. Let me explain that further for you: I won't be responsible for Hillary's election (if she gets in there) either. I won't be responsible for her "warring" or any of the other things she does or wants to do. My state will not add its electoral votes to whatever total Hillary accumulates. There is nothing anyone in my state can do that will have an effect on Hillary, not even those who do support her...to clarify that for you so you don't misunderstand, I'm not among them.

Got it now?
 
It's obvious to me that as long as the Trumpsters stick around, their new strategy (for some, not even new) will be to attempt to shame those of us who see through him, and try to label us as neocons, progressives, or Hillary supporters. As long as some of us have been here, they should be embarrassed to attempt this, but....they're not too embarrassed to support Trump, so I guess their tolerance for shame goes pretty deep.

This is the post you (tried to) quote.

So you're a hillary supporter?

It's no wonder you guys defend and/or support Trump. There's either a reading comprehension problem going on here, or most of you are really thick.

BTW, same situation, for me, here in Oklahoma. Obama did not carry a single county here, in either 2008 or 2012.

I have some Democrat friends here, and I keep telling them in every POTUS election, they are just throwing their POTUS vote away, which is more than fine with me. :D

It can't be that, he taught college courses.
 
About the race: Its really tricky. Obviously, Trump will get the most delegates. But its well possible that he wont get the majority of them. So that is at the moment my best prediction and that could turn out violently, if the establishment will grab it from him at the convention, which they most certainly can, but then again - what would Trump do after that? Guess what, it won't be boring.

The next month is pretty meager in terms of allocated delegates, but Trump might get the littlest share of them and lose some momentum:

March 22nd:
Utah: Cruz is leading in the only poll conducted recently with a huge margin. Cruz 53%, Kasich 29%, Trump 11%. If Cruz manages the 50% threshold, its winner-take-all 40 delegates for him.
American Samoa: A few GOP members will join in a pub, drink a few beer and determine the AS delegation, so no one knows what will happen there. As far as I get it there will be no preference vote at all, and the delegates will be unbound.

April 1st-3rd: North Dakota GOP Convention: A bit like American Samoa :) There was no preference vote in ND, all delegates will be determined at the state convention and will be truely unbound in all aspects. Very likely non-Trump territory.

April 5th: Wisconsin primary: K, that could be Trumps only day in the month - or not. There hasnt been any poll since over a month. Back then, they were slightly in favor of Trump, but really not by much with 6 candidates in the race. Its mostly winner take all (WTA) state, except that CD delegates are WTA to district results, not to statewide results.

April 9th: Colorado convention: Like AS and ND, CO holds no preferential vote. Delegates are directly elected at the convention and get bound to the candidates they pledge to before they get elected (in case they do, they can also run as uncommitted). Surely non-Trump territory.

And thats it until April 19th - the NY primary which Trump will win almost certainly.

(P.S.: Still waiting on final Missouri results....)

I love how Trump supporters can't seem to comprehend that it's possible to oppose Trump without supporting Hillary Clinton.

Because in reality it isn't so possible. Barring extremely unlikely circumstances one or the other will be our next President.

Trump may not be particularly liberty-friendly, but we have rarely if ever seen an enemy as open, virulent, and complete as Clinton.

I posted a thread on Hillary titled "Hillary is a Career Criminal". If you can watch that video and not afterwards find Trump preferable, then there's something wrong with you.

I wonder how much of this equivocation stems from people being too young (or senile) to remember the Clintons' last time around.
