The best thing about Rubio is that he called Trump out wearing those boots.

We let them? Yes, but we haven't learned to exercised our power, to thwart the power of a MSM that has an agenda yet. If not for talk radio and to some extent FOX NEWS, we don't have a voice. I for one, have canceled my subscription to our local rag of a news paper own by the NYTs.

His taste in footwear
Also, a key difference is reforming entitlements. That, along with SCOTUS, is my biggest issue.

Mate, how will you feel when Honest Ted is sitting on the bench?

I think most would agree; obviously you don't. Look, Trump won several states that are normally Democrat strongholds: Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin. He also won in battleground states that had been won by Obama in 2012: Florida, Ohio and Iowa. And yes, the Clinton won the popular vote but it was very close.
Let me ask you this: What states would your preferred candidate had won that Trump didn't win?

Deeply terrified for my friends on Facebook who live a certain lifestyle that might be different from mine, or wanting to access reproductive healthcare.

Thanks in large part to low turnout...

Who knows. Maybe Virginia and Colorado.

To say during the primaries that Rubio had a better chance to win than Trump wasn't as crazy then as it is now. Trump was always a high risk, high reward candidate, his ceiling was 306 but his floor was in the 220s. Rubio on the other hand had a ceiling of 285ish and a floor around the 250s.
No one until around Super Tuesday saw that Trump was an absolute madman with campaigning, it was absolutely nuts how many rallies he held and that more than made up for his "lack of ground game." Wikileaks absolutely gave Trump the gas he needed to finish the race. If it persuaded even 1,000 voters in the close states then it was a major development.

I eviscerated yall relentlessly on matters of substance.
You eviscerated some people in your own mind, almost entirely using Trump's misspeaks. Which wasn't a difficult task.
You never really did this on tax policy. When pushed on Rubio's tax policy you produced his Congressional plan, which is actually better than most on here produced.
And not one of you ever did admit certain policies are tariff like in their impact, and a tariff against these policies is not a unilateral tariff.
Nor are any of you going to. The only guy that ever engaged had to admit his was wrong about milk and dairy being seasonal.
But the rest of you, and you included, basically asked for links, and basically said, "I'm smarter than you. I win. I'm right."
The only really good posts were when you and Russian got in pissing matches. The rest were somewhat academic arguments with almost no real world application.
But I'll give you credit, when you actually got serious, which was infrequent, you did bring up some good points. Where you failed is you were never comfortable considering other arguments.
In a world where strategic withdrawals for the later (and usually bigger and better) victory is a necessity to advance, this is a character trait that will prove the Peter Principal to be accurate.
Lastly, I spoke about instinct a lot during the campaign, specifically to you and Ohio Buckeye fan. I got made fun of a lot for this. At this point I'd hope you would at least consider developing and trusting instinct, I think you'll find it will serve you well.
You have potential. iosh has a long way to go. He must be younger. FWIW, whatever someone on here did to him is completely unacceptable. Part of why most of us are on message boards is to blow off steam. That he would feel threatened by someone who disagreed with him (especially on a message board) is baffling to me.
Good luck to you.
Sincerely,
Typical Northerner (I believe this is what you called me)

Actually many GOPe supporters were saying almost anyone other than Trump could have beaten Clinton easily.
I believe Cruz would have won easily. He would have killed her in the debates and he didn't have the baggage Trump had. But, in the end I ended up supporting Trump. Based on the cabinet he's putting together it seems to be the right choice.

I agree. It's the board's loss in my opinion. I hope he's doing well.

That has little to do with anything I said.
It never does because everything you say is megatons more intelligent than everyone else.

Do not engage him. He is here to say complicated things, usually about polling methodology, and dairy products being seasonal. Designed to sound incredibly intelligent. Having been proven wrong on both, and not really having posted anything of substance on policy, he should be ignored.
The grown ups are now in charge, let these people be left behind.
A perfect description of Cuckeye.
