And the RNC is not going to extend the same courtesy to trump. You're wrong
12-16-2015 , 04:46 PM
Right, which would make TRUMP not resonating

Yes, you were wrong. Romney didn't clinch in April.

If ikes were exiled from P/PU, he could always hang out in the SE politics containment thread.

He's been threatened with exile from that already.

I didn't call for anything. How does someone even call for something seventy years ago? I said if the law was applied to everyone that would be the result.

I don't care enough to fact check when the last primary is. I knew when super Tuesday was and went with it.

So many Trump threads it's hard to know where to share some fun news

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotlan..****and-35106581

Quote:
Donald Trump's legal challenge to a planned offshore wind farm has been rejected by the UK's Supreme Court. Developers hope to site 11 turbines off Aberdeen, close to Mr Trump's golfing development on the Aberdeenshire coast.

The Trump Organisation said it was an "extremely unfortunate" ruling and it would "continue to fight" the wind farm proposal.

Former First Minister Alex Salmond said the latest court verdict left Mr Trump a "three-time loser".

The Trump Organisation responded: "Does anyone care what this man thinks? He's a has-been and totally irrelevant."

Mr Trump began his challenge to the decision to grant planning permission more than two years ago. He was furious when the Scottish government approved plans for the renewable energy development within sight of his multi-million pound golf development on the Menie estate, north of Aberdeen.

He said the turbines would spoil the view.

Changing your mind is a totally acceptable reason for believing different **** today than you believed yesterday, but it's not an acceptable reason to lie about what you believed yesterday.

This is the problem that Cruz is actually having with immigration attacks on Rubio. Rubio is going straightish up, I was wrong before, I'm right now. Cruz is lying and claiming to be the hardest of the hard line guys, lying about his track record.


In most years I'd say that should play to Rubio's benefit, but Cruz is going the full monty and just hoping that his base dismisses any sort of media factchecking, even conservative media factchecking, under the idea that none of the conservative news orgs will be willing to risk taking a shot at the golden boy in defense of the squish.

I said he locked up the nomination, and he did. ffs, the 2+2 primary thread was completely dead (zero posts between mid-April and a September bump) after the day Frothy suspended his campaign. Maybe in whatever ******ed world you live in where being 3/4 of the way to the majority and having zero legitimate competition left doesn't qualify as "locked up", you get to be right, but from the rest of us here on planet earth, please shut up already, christ.
12-16-2015 , 11:38 PM
oh btw while goofy vomits more reasons why his attempt to technically correct me was absolutely wrong, remember that I'm the one who always plays semantics!
12-16-2015 , 11:40 PM
Bro we don't have to remember it. We aren't using our memory. We're literally reading what you wrote on this very page. You are the one who is playing semantics.
12-16-2015 , 11:50 PM
Trump has no chance of clinching in march, even if you follow essentially the ludicrously optimistic scenarios where he simply crushes. But yeah, I'm making the semantic argument.
12-16-2015 , 11:52 PM
Uhhhhhh bro goofy said that Rmoney had the nomination locked up in April. He was right.

Right, and like I said, he was trying to make a technical point to try to defend the circle jerk claim of March, which is patently ludicrous.

(and he wasn't right, but who gives a flying ****, Trump ain't clinching in any way whatsoever in the month of march)

Here's Doctor Ikestoys posting in the General Election thread, Obama vs. Romney, on March 26th 2012, talking about Romney VP candidates, before Santorum even suspended his campaign!!:

I guess you can knock Phill for being off by a month, Romney didn't lock it up in 2012 until April.
The circlest of jerks
12-16-2015 , 11:57 PM
Goofy what odds do you want to bet on Trump clinching in March?
12-16-2015 , 11:58 PM
Didn't you say that you were too poor to accept any more bets? Just fair warning to goofy, I wouldn't trust ikes here. Especially since he'd get banned if TRUMP does win.
