Paul Ryan uninvites Trump from Saturday event following vulgar video release - Polidicks

[quote]House Speaker Paul Ryan Friday evening uninvited Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump from a Saturday appearance toether following the release of a tape in which Trump was recorded making vulgar comments about women. Ryan said he was 'sickened' by Trump's lewd comments before calling on the businessman to show respect for women. The Republican unity event will be held in Wisconsin -- Ryan's home state.[/quote] [url]http://klewtv.com/news/nation-world/speaker-ryan-cancels-saturday-event-with-trump-following-vulgar-video-release[/url] I'm surprised, maybe the increasingly nervous man might be right for once? I'm still skeptical if this will really dent his supporter-base.

So this is how the Party of Lincoln dies. Not with a bang, but with a MAGA.

I'm half expecting Pence to be swapped as the party head but since the ballots are out I don't even think thats possible I want off Mr Trumps wild ride

[QUOTE=Turnips5;51169170]last reminder that you don't actually have to vote for him or for clinton[/QUOTE] I'm still voting for him, I just don't think he will win now

At this point why even try to dissuade him, it's as much a thrown vote as one for Gary Johnson.

Cool, if Trump is destroyed before the election, then I won't have to throw away my dignity voting for Hillary just in case the election is super close and comes down to a single vote.

[QUOTE=RIPBILLYMAYS;51169172]I'm still voting for him, I just don't think he will win now[/QUOTE] vote for whoever you fucking want, jesus christ. don't vote for donald because you don't want hillary to win, especially if you agree he's bad (which iirc you have in the other thread, though unfortunately i don't know the whole story.) vote independent, vote for the candidates you think fit your standards the most, there's literally thousands of them. and don't give me that bullshit "throw your vote away" argument, thousands if not [I]millions[/I] of people died for your fucking right to vote for whoever you want. i'd be okay with you if you voted for donald because you truly supported him, because while i disagree with you i can't argue your right to vote. but i refuse to give you the support if you vote for him because "the other side sucks." cmon.

I'm really curious how this era is going to look in future history books.

[QUOTE=Paramud;51169836]I really don't understand how that compares.[/QUOTE] bernie voters refused to see the writing on the wall and voted for him religiously, some even to the point that they'll write his name in on the ballot next month. trump supporters wont have to write his name in, but they're just as blind to the reality of the situation.

Granted there are people who are going to write in his name and throw away their votes, but that's not an issue specifically with supporting Sanders.

Bernie supporters kept pushing for him till the end, now a majority are voting Hillary. So Trump supporters according to you should just vote Hillary cause she looks more likely to win? And this isn't exactly new, losing candidates are always going to have supporters who don't want to give up. The fact you're trying to throw a little mud at them just makes you condescending.

I worked in a Bernie Sanders campaign and I was the only one there who understood that he was probably going to lose. Practically everyone there was acting like a cult. It worsened when he didn't win.

[QUOTE=Anti Christ;51169822]i said it in another thread, but its relevant again -- possibly even more so[/QUOTE] Posts like these make me wish we still had the "Dumb" rating in SH. Sanders supporters overwhelmingly supported him until the end of the primaries and then switched to Clinton. It's insulting to compare people passionate about a genuine candidate to Trump voters who fail to recognize the hundreds of massive flaws their candidate has.

[QUOTE=Anti Christ;51169822]i said it in another thread, but its relevant again -- possibly even more so[/QUOTE] I know right, how dare people vote for people they believe in

His campaign's falling apart in spectacular fashion.
