    LOL!!!

    Hillary Clinton was leading by a few votes over Bernie Sanders, Donald Trump was leading by a few votes over Ted Cruz in Missouri with 99% reporting when they stopped counting and went home.

This was never sustainable—it begged the question of who got to decide first—and when Bush jumped the gun on his former protégé by going around the country raising $100 million for his super PAC while claiming he was still making up his mind, Rubio jumped in. Bush, to put it mildly, didn’t take this well.
    Because the establishment GOPers believe you have to pay your dues to the more senior members, *especially* a mentor who helped your career along. Like Jeb Bush did for Rubio. That little uppity shit tried to jump the line ahead of Jeb, and the establishment GOPers closed ranks and succcessfully put him in his place!




    If only the idiot had stayed out of the race for the top spot, he would have been a darling pic for the VP slot on the GOP if any of the establishment guys got the top nom.

    But now, he's toxic. And almost surely completely ruined his chances at ever getting this close to the White House, barring going on one of those tours open to the public.

    Donald Trump, front-runner to be the GOP's candidate for the upcoming US presidential election, encountered a major protest at his campaign event in Chicago on Friday evening. Over a thousand people, both his supporters and opponents engaged in a physical confrontation, which was quelled by police who arrested a number of people.

    Fist fights among voters who have different political orientations is quite common in developing countries during election seasons. Now, a similar show is shockingly staged in the US, which boasts one of the most developed and mature democratic election systems.

    Trump's mischief has overthrown a lot of conventional norms of US political life.

    His remarks are abusively racist and extremist,
    which has left an impression on the US public that he is intentionally overthrowing political correctness.

    Trump's rise was not anticipated by most analysts and observers. At the beginning of the election, Trump, a rich, narcissist and inflammatory candidate, was only treated as an underdog. His job was basically to act as a clown to attract more voters' attention to the GOP. However, knocking down most other promising candidates, the clown is now the biggest dark horse.

    Trump is the last option for the GOP establishment. If he wins the primaries, the GOP will face a bitter dilemma. On the one hand, it will be a big compromise to GOP values, and the party takes a major risk of losing the game if they choose Trump as their candidate for president; on the other hand, if the GOP refuses to choose Trump, he might run as an independent candidate and split the vote, in which case, the GOP will also stand no chance in the final game.

    The rise of Trump has opened a Pandora's box in US society. Trump's supporters are mostly lower-class whites, and they lost a lot after the 2008 financial crisis. The US used to have the largest and most stable middle class in the Western world, but many are going down.

    That's when Trump emerged. Big-mouthed, anti-traditional, abusively forthright, he is a perfect populist that could easily provoke the public. Despite candidates' promises, Americans know elections cannot really change their lives. Then, why not support Trump and vent their spleen?

    The rise of a racist in the US political arena worries the whole world. Usually, the tempo of the evolution of US politics can be predicted, while Trump's ascent indicates all possibilities and unpredictability. He has even been called another Benito Mussolini or Adolf Hitler by some Western media.

    Mussolini and Hitler came to power through elections, a heavy lesson for Western democracy. Now, most analysts believe the US election system will stop Trump from being president eventually. The process will be scary but not dangerous.

    Even if Trump is simply a false alarm, the impact has already left a dent. The US faces the prospect of an institutional failure, which might be triggered by a growing mass of real-life problems.

    The US had better watch itself for not being a source of destructive forces against world peace, more than pointing fingers at other countries for their so-called nationalism and tyranny."




    I'm so gonna get some shirts made that say "Need to vent your spleen? Vote Trump in 2016!"
    So the most racist nation on earth, China, is giving us advice on despotism? Just making sure I heard that right.
    Chinese aren't really racists they're chauvanists. They actually have an inferiority complex when it comes to whites. Now the Japanese or the Russians... there are some fucking racists.

    Limbaugh dropping bombs all over the Republican party today. 2 of which I brought up a week or 2 ago:
    1 - The nominee that Obama floated for Supreme Court is not the guy he actually wants, but is the sacrificial lamb to get the person he actually wants.
    2 - Would Obama take a deal where he would indict Hillary in exchange for his Supreme Court pick?
    3 - Republicans pushing toward a brokered convention and will install Paul Ryan and Kasich as the Ticket.





    Any of you betting lines guys got anything on this?

    I was just gonna post about this 4D.

    Glad you guys are enjoying yourselves with the primary betting and chat.

    The only good to come out of all this, Bernie & Trump, is a civics lesson and hopefully a few riots & civil unrest. If the key requirement to becoming President is your being entrenched in the deal making and quid pro quo - what am I saying? That IS the process.

    Even a politically apathetic guy like me is getting engaged this year.

    That voters are turning this contract on its ear... fucking love it. But first there will be war.

    How in the fuck do you think Hillary got spit out of the political factory? No better candidate?

    http://www.cnbc.com/2016/03/16/we-ch...-official.html
    Political parties, not voters, choose their presidential nominees, a Republican convention rules member told CNBC, a day after GOP front-runner Donald Trump rolled up more big primary victories.
    "The media has created the perception that the voters choose the nomination. That's the conflict here," Curly Haugland, an unbound GOP delegate from North Dakota
    Hopefully, this focuses the conversation on the political process going forward.

    What a corrupt bag of shit. But that Rubio was roundly ignored gives me hope with regards to American voters and those that care.

    Hillary is so vile and yet here she is. That depresses me. Little bit of hope gets snuffed out.

    Hillary is all but guaranteed the election if the GOP continues down this road. It is pretty obvious they have 0 intention of trying to win the election . Just want to keep the status quo . . .

    Ain't that a shame. Who gives a fuck about the GOP and what they want?

    Lol, the 2 party system in this age of modern instant news and communication. Can't trust the voters?

    I love the '68 election parallel. Lotta bombs gonna be dropped this summer.

    Hillary got a lot of history that she hasn't had to address. Not talking about servers either.

    Dialed up some Clinton murder conspiracy shit on YouTube before I sleep. Makes me happy.

    Yup, let's just toss out the whole primary voting exercise. This is promoted by a GOP establishment type.

    Just so you get a glimpse inside the hearts and minds of party establishment. Fuck the voters. They need guidance

    I've already expended more energy than this corrupt process deserves.

    In fairness, the whole "primary voting exercise" got hijacked by the corporate cattle crowd.. if Trump actually ends up in office, 2020 could be the year we go to war with Mexico to reclaim the breakaway republic of Texas.

    Holy shit.

    Fox set up a surprise debate and Trump told them to fuck themselves.

    And Fox insta-folded and cancelled the debate.
