These numbers simply staggering, if the GOP was the DNC they would have all competing candidates to drop out or coalesce around the front runner. Yah, there are still Republicans who haven't seen the light yet. The Democrats typically unify, but even today there are Republicans who are scratching their head wondering why we don't pick Rubio, or Jeb, or Mitt. |

PA has got to be the most corrupt Democrats in the country. It is a toss-up between them and MI, WI, MN and GA.

The GOP will find a way to blow it. Period. MD, you have said with fondness how the Democrats provide a united front, and that is how to win. Well, Trump is 50 points ahead of his rivals, and national polls show he is ahead of Biden in the Swing States, but how can you complain about lack of united front in the Republican party and not get behind the leader of the party? |

Bill, I guess I don't understand why my position remains so confusing. I prefer Trump against any Democractic opponent today, and if he receives the nomination that will remain true for the general election, regardless of whether he runs against the turnip (Biden), the retard (Harris) or the slimeball (Newsom). I also think he's an asshole. Believe it or not, it's possible to feel both of those things at the same time.

When Trump was running the first time, they came to Trump to sign an agreement to support the candidate if it wasn't him. He agreed to sign it, but insisted the other GOP candidates sign the agreement first. They all did and Trump signed it and Trump won. Jeb, Cruz and others continued to attack Trump. Jeb never gave up. We need a unified from MD. We need YOU....  |

Is preferring Trump the same or different in actually voting for Trump? If I recollect, you did not vote for Trump and have stated you would not did not past, present, future.

Bill, if kissing Trump's bronze-gelled ass would guarantee the GOP will win the White House and both houses of Congress next Novemeber, I'd pucker up and do it. But it doesn't, so I won't.
SK, again, I live in a state Biden carried by five million votes and 29% percentage points. My vote makes no difference, and that gives me the luxury of voting my conscience. There's a good chance I will move to North Carolina and leave this shithole state in the next six months, where maybe my vote will become more important.

But it doesn't, so I won't. SK, again, I live in a state Biden carried by five million votes and 29% percentage points.

There's a good chance I will move to North Carolina and leave this shithole state in the next six months, where maybe my vote will become more important. <~~ Every vote counts even in vein, it's optics. Optics are all part of the electorate equation, espaecially going forward, becomes narrative, people follow narrative. NC... better hurry..... before its too late in that state as well. I just spent almost two weeks on east coast, NY, NJ, DEL, MD, PA. Saw many Trump flags throughout the state, But looking again last night in which some states voted, the big city rule, as they go so do the state. Republicans either have a real election system problem or a message problem. There is just no way anyone could continue to support and vote for what is presently happening to the nation. There isn't a poll showing anyone is happy with about anything. |

Last night should have been a red wave across the nation, yet it turned out to be a wash. Our education system has so dumbed down and brainwashed the American electorate in the last 60 years that half of them would vote for a turd if you put a D next to the name. |

Our education system has so dumbed down and brainwashed the American electorate in the last 60 years that half of them would vote for a turd if you put a D next to the name. I've also watched this trend as well, the single biggest issue (one issue voter) is now abortion. There is a baked in vote from a female perspective that no one can ignore nor deny. Yes, the Supreme Court shot down Row vs Wade. But that has also translated into an emotional vote in this country bestowed upon the election process mainly by women and students. We can argue this till the end of time, but right now I see this as a losing position amongst the electorate. I am "Pro-Life" for the most part by the way. However one must pick their battles, prioritize, Economy, Security, Safety, Taxation, Energy, Borders & Wars all effect my life on a daily basis to a greater degree. |

Bill, if kissing Trump's bronze-gelled ass would guarantee the GOP will win the White House and both houses of Congress IMO, sometimes a Republican with a united House and Senate can screw things up, if he is part of the "establishment." I think that is the appeal of Trump over other GOP candidates. We don't need another RINO. If Mitt was running against Tulsi Gabbard (or another right-leaning Democrat), I doubt I would vote for Mitt. I do agree, overall Republican policies trump Democrat policies, but there are some smelly Republicans out there. |
