Saunders Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Regardless of what anyone thinks of Hillary, that haircut is a masterpiece. It blows my mind to watch people practically worship politicians. Like, why would you do this? Link to comment
TGHusker Posted March 4, 2016 Author Share Posted March 4, 2016 How low can this mess go. Think of President Reagan who would never go into the oval office without a suit out of respect for the office. Now we got Trump saying what he said in the debate about his size. And this guy could possibly be the face of America? Of course, Bill Clinton set the new example of Oval Office behavior - so maybe we should be so surprised by a Trump. I didn't get a chance to hear the debate (teaching). So, who 'won' the debate? Most effective in discussing the issues and policy and getting his point across. I heard Rush say that Cruz did the best job. I've heard some others say Kasich did a good job staying above the fray and pointing out his successes. Link to comment

Whistlebritches Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 A lot of people are saying it and there are numbers to back it up. Republican voters don't like their choices. http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/republican-voters-kind-of-hate-all-their-choices/ Link to comment

Maybe a lot of them won't even vote. It'll make the Independent vote that much more critical, and I don't think Trump polls as well with Independents as he does with Republicans. Link to comment

The Republican primary turnout is breaking records but I don't know what that means for the general election. I also don't know what the Democratic primary's lower numbers mean but my guess is that Democratic party members see Clinton as inevitable and Sanders isn't exciting enough (like Obama was) to turn out for. I'm an independent and I'm considering voting in the Republican primary just to vote against Trump. Even though he is the least likely of all of the Republican candidates to beat Clinton. Despite not liking her I will vote for her against all of the current Republican candidates. But I'd prefer that Sanders win. Link to comment

The Independents tend to lean toward the candidate that seems to be most pragmatic and the one that seems to espouse working across the aisle. That's one of the reasons they are not affiliated with a party - they want to find someone that is willing to actually institute change, which they know requires some degree of willingness to work with all political spectrums. I'd guess that would sink Trump - he's been the polar opposite of inclusive or willing to compromise. Link to comment
AR Husker Fan Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 OK...got a question about the debate since I didn't watch all of it. I tuned in with about 20 minutes left. I'm pretty sure the question to Donald was something about how he is going to make foreign leaders do what he wants them to do. Honestly....his answer was....."Because I'll tell them to. They will do what I tell them to do". Seriously???? Did I hear that right? BTW.....type loser.com into your browser. It's worse than that BRB. Recently, Michael Hayden came out and said that if Trump gave the order to our military to kill wives and children of terrorists, has called for, the military is would disobey the order. Hayden is no schlub-- he served 41 years in the Air Force and retired a four star general, 6 years as the NSA director, and 3 years as the CIA director. All armed forces members take an oath to protect the Constitution, not to the commander in chief. They're not required to follow an unlawful order, per the Geneva Conventions. Targeting civilians is a war crime, and Trump doesn't seem to understand that. They asked him about it and said, "If this were the case, how would you get military members to do what you want them to do?" "Because I'll tell them to. They will do what I tell them to do." He's awful. And....Trump flips his position. 1 Link to comment
