I don't know why fox asked that support the nominee question. Why do they have to set up the rat-gently caress? If you decide to rat-gently caress trump just rat-gently caress him. It wont change his decision to run independent.

"We have this notion that if you're poor, you cannot do it. Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids."

As the audience reluctantly began to applaud during the silence, Biden tried to fix his remarks.

"Wealthy kids, black kids, Asian kids -- no, I really mean it." Biden said.

Don't you get it? He CANT run independent now, he is on video saying he won't do so. That's legally binding.

The take a breath Donald thing is going to get repeated. That's a real way to attack him, he constantly interrupts. Then you can argue against trumps own impulsive, brass nature in a negative joking way.

The first filing deadlines end on May 9th. If Trump wants to mount a credible independent run, he needs to register as an independent candidate long before the convention. How likely do you think that is?

That's possible but it feels like the GOP is just megalomaniacs staring each other down as they push all the buttons on the electorate at once. It's not the rational decision in any way, and its not what you do once the knife fight really starts.

GOP is going to like, hire a black guy to spam social media with black lives matters for a couple months and then false flag attack their convention and eliminate Trump. They will unify behind someone who didn't run to make it fair. That someone is Mitt Romney. Charles Koch is the bag man.

It's a little bit juvenile, but it's simple and it's timeless.

We let it be known that Schnorkles, for a snack, eats tiny pieces of shit.

You're picturing it and you're talking about it. That's a win in my book.
I think Trump and his campaign aren't stupid everyone. Donald Trump is a lot of things, but he's murdered career politicians pretty effortlessly and this campaign will be studied for basically ever.

He probably knew this was coming and plowed forward anyway. I feel like what happened here is a repeat of most debates. Trump's floor stays solid, and the debate peels off a layer or two of the weak support until he starts winning again.

Unfortunately for everyone else, if his 30-35% floor holds in the next 4 states, he's going to sweep all 4 of them and then the narrative is right back in his camp.

And now they're all on record that they're going to support him. :getin:

Right but a pledge won't stop Trump from running 3rd party because he can and will just claim that he was going to honour the pledge but X happened. So bringing it up at all just limits the other 3 candidates, who are actually expected to not just ignore their promises, if some insanity Trump nom into 3rd party GOPe Romneygeddon happens, and weakens their anti-trump rhetoric in the meantime because 'if this guy is so bad why have you pledged to support him'

If you believe Trump is basically just a cult of personality and his demographics can't coalesce around anything without him, it's not entirely unreasonable for the GOP to just ratfuck him, eat the general loss while still holding onto state and congressional power and then look ahead to 2020.
