This is my point. I know I'm getting DV on this pretty bad. But in a perfect world, you would have the actual professionals representing your party and doing the bidding for their constituents.

I don't mean this as an insult, but Trump is not a skilled politician, and it never should have been left up to him to champion the causes of the base of the party. But the parry leadership has been such an abysmal failure, we got Trump and he will he here to stay until the party decides to change course and ditch the Chamber of Commerce and Chinese interests.

Truth. In fact, it’s so true and has been so true for so long, the fact that he’s anti GOP is an advantage.

The charade around Trump is a win/win for the GOP RINO’s. They get to lose and bury conservatives while blaming someone other than Dems. It’s a centralized power party’s wet dream but it’s only possible because voters are so stupid.

Upvote. Trump is simply a reaction to the failures of politicians on all sides.

Trump’s electoral deficiencies have nothing to do with policy and everything to do with his inability to keep his mouth shut when appropriate.

Trump doesn't do himself any favors with his inability to shut up but the primary reason for his "electoral deficiencies" is a rigged election.

Saying nothing while you are constantly attacked and lied about by the media has worked so well for the GOP. I can see why you want to return to those days.

The right will never win this country. Too many people get their panties in a bunch over mere words.

Yes, only the least intelligent and most ignorant want a secure border and successful economy.

Your dumb definition of populism describes the democrats to a T. Yet, you only exhibit disdain for populism when Trump is mentioned. Weird.

To a Far Right nutcase like yourself, I am sure that Center-Right looks that way.

Hell, you people probably think Reagan was a Leftist.

Temperament is extremely important at organizational leadership levels. No one wants a drama magnet at the senior executive level.

He doesnt have the self-regulation needed to lead anymore.

He also attracts too many anti-trump people to the polls to be electable anymore.

read the room....move on

Pardon me my good man, might I bother you for a bit of explanation or justification (with a reasonable amount of detail, copious detail not necessary) for your provocative assertions? Because as of now all I’m seeing is a talking point used by nearly every other anti-Trumper as well. Folks get this stuff off the google. “List of reasons to oppose Trump”

You calling me far right just further exposes your ignorance. I’m closer to Libertarian, do whatever you want unless you’re trying to directly hurt me.

Every third poster is Tiger-something. Perhaps I have confused you with someone else. If so, I apologize.

Have you ever thought, at least in the last 15 years, that the Republican Party (e) knows what in the flying frick is in its best interest? They ran McCain, Mitt, and then I think what was supposed to be Jeb for THREE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS IN A ROW. I think that's all you need to know.
