I have a feeling that they're not gonna down quietly and accept Drumpf at the convention

They really had been grooming Rubio as the new face of the party since 2012 and he went absolutely nowhere

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Ironically, this is exactly the way I would describe Hillary.

shes so damn old and has been in politics forever so it makes more sense that her positions on things change over time. its why people who are in politics forever don't usually win their parties nomination,


Whats Rubio's excuse? He just got here and he constantly chasing the latest conservative fad.



and debasing himself by trying out Trump Trump, by talking about Trumps penis made this stupidly; obvious kid is a follower not a leader. .

in the old days it was something that happened at the convention:

Hilldawg may sweep tonight...yikes

The biggest question is what is the GOP going to do now with Rubio dropping? We haven't seen anything like this before.

Options:

- Nominate someone other than Trump, despite him winning primaries
- Quietly not place support behind Trump and focus on the House/Senate races coming/organize a 3rd party
- Support the candidate who wins the primaries and build the convention around them
- Vote for Hillary

let Trump get eaten alive by Hilary and regroup with a Ted Cruz 2020 run against a potentially unpopular Hilary Clinton facing possible voter fatigue from seeking the Democratic parties 4th straight win.

I feel kind of bad for Rubio. Imagine selling your soul to have a political career, and then the Devil himself enters the race against you.

That's the way I see it going and a possible big flip from the GOP to Democrat, word to 1980.

lol at Hillary morphing into Drumpf, talking about how she won't let China take advantage of us.

 

[AEA18]

Republican party have been digging their own grave for the past 8 years.

Letting the far right crazies take over their party.

Alienating minorities even more than in the past.

Creating the Frankenstein's Monster that is Drumpf.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

This case is a perfect example of why credibility is like insurance. You don't need it until you need it.


If Ted Cruz wasn't an unctuous, duplicitous, and sanctimonious human being, the republican establishment would have been able to see that he is their only hope to stop Trump.

but they can't see past their hatred of him to do it, so Kasich is staying in the race splitting the Anti-Trump vote basically assuring Trump the nomination.


Hilarious.

Eh to be fair she's the one that helped put into action the so called "Pivot" to East Asia to help with Chinese containment in the Pacific during her time as Secretary of State so she's been on that longer than some of her other positions

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Ted was cool backstabbing people and burning his credibility in the senate until today, where he needs the people he back stabbed to make him the nominee.


Who needs credibility, until you need it ?

Kasich is deadass the Anti-Trump in ALL aspects politically

One of the few mainstream GOP politicians I've seen actually strike a conciliatory and anti-divisive tone in most of their messages.

That would be insane

If that's in order pretty crazy that voting for Hilary comes after create a 3rd party.

There's nothing about Hillary Clinton that's dope. I'll be ashamed if I have to vote for her, but I'll still do it to avoid pro-life idiots.

The results this far tonight suck.

WRONG

The realization that you'd have to vote for her should have set in months ago

Hilldawg > any Republican though.
