Trumpfags lol. Oh you.

I mean, I certainly won’t disagree with the literal version of your sentiments there, however, short of some immense new circumstances that may pop up that are impossible for Trump to overcome, I don’t see any reason to ignore the very widely seen lead that DT has in too many right places. And of note, not just regular old lead, but rather a “healthy” lead. Put another way, to bet otherwise would clearly be a dark horse one.

No worries, I already have you down for “vehemently disagree.” You’re good to go.

If you think the only thing that happens in a primary is someone wins then you might be retarded.

Are you actively attempting to steer the discussion in a new and different direction to avoid certain defeat? Because as I understood it we were simply talking about the eventuality of one of a handful of remaining candidates ultimately becoming the nominee by virtue of winning to the required extent in hopefully a streak of states’ primary contests. There is certainly some strategic maneuvering involved that could turn the tide in the overall outcome, but typically only in the situation of very close races between the top couple or three candidates. But this just isn’t going to be such an occasion.

Candidates influence the platform through the course of the primary.

Trump doesn’t want a platform and his most ardent followers don’t care what his platform is. So that will make this primary interesting.

But the platform will still be shaped through the primary.

So you’re asserting that to date Trump’s platform is a mystery? I must disagree. Are people familiar with his platform to varying degrees, some more so than others of course? Sure, no doubt. But there’s quite enough information both of record as well as from statements and commentary directly from him to form a pretty good picture of “his platform.”

Might there be some tweaks along the way, quite possibly. But it’s not like he can just start from scratch. I can’t imagine that even being possible. But again, yes I can find agreement with you on the point that various certain revisions or tweaks might come about. I just can’t see any such circumstances presenting essentially a new candidate though.

It’s not a mystery. It will be whatever his brain farts out in the moment. But it will not be cogent and it will not be based on his firmly-held beliefs. He has almost none.

Your perspective is garbage. You are basing am entire viewpoint off a few posters on a message board

He looks like Mr. Burns. Ron smoked him, and that’s good for anyone on the right.
