I have to agree with GF. Bush did not engage with all the personal attacks. While that did hurt him politically. He refused to go there.

Nobody HAS to agree with GF. You WANT to agree with GF.

Does he have to WANT to agree with GF? Can't he simply agree with GF? ;)
Being wrong about a topic is called post partisanism - kalm

MAQA - putting the Q into qrazy qanon qult qonspiracy theories since 2015.

It will probably be difficult for MAQA yahoos to overcome the Qult programming but they should give being rational & reasonable a try.

Thank you for your attention to this matter - UNI88

Where exactly was Bush not emotionally mature? Just not sure where you measured that.
Just think about how he responded to all the insults and criticism he was getting. He maintained an even keel. He did not engage in personal attacks. Or if he ever did things that might be construed as "personal attack" it was minimal. He maintained a professional demeanor. And yes I realize he wasn't articulate. But I'm talking about the way he handled himself.

You would never have seen him acting like a petulant little kid like Trump does.

She's not. Trump is the more evil of the two. The more dishonest. The more unscrupulous. Ect.

But there are liars, and then there's Donald Trump. He may have an inflated opinion of himself, but when it comes to lying, the man has truly reached a level no one else can approach.
http://www.dailywire.com/news/4834/trum ... nk-berrien
Donald Trump has repeatedly labeled his political opponents liars. He dubbed Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) Lyin' Ted when it became clear that Cruz was a serious rival for his nomination; he called Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) an "even bigger liar" than Cruz. He dubbed Dr. Ben Carson a "pathological liar" and said former Florida Governor Jeb Bush's lies were almost as bad as Cruz's. Trump has termed virtually every mildly adversarial media member a liar, too.

But there's only one truly massive liar in this race: Donald Trump. When Politico attempted to measure how many lies Trump told over the course of 4.6 hours of speeches, they found that he lied, on average, once every five minutes. When Huffington Post catalogued his lies over the course of just one town hall event, they came up with 71 lies.
You guys keep giving this guy a pass and he's just absolutely horrible. Even by the standards of politicians he is by far the worst I've ever seen in terms of just brazen, bald faced dishonesty. And that's just ONE of the problems with him. There are many others. You people who have supported him or are now supporting him are either insane or you, as I have said many times, have just suspended your critical thinking skills due to some kind of cult of personality thing or something.

I expect it to continue. No matter how much evidence there is out there...no matter how much you can just SEE that the guy is bad news if you just watch him for 10 minutes...you're going to rationalize it in your minds so you can continue your hero worship because for some reason you like seeing someone be an asshole. You think that's cool.
its hilarious how he makés a joke of our crooked leaders, John. Just being mentioned in the same breath with him diminishes them even further. He´s like Toto pulling back the curtain on the Wizard of Oz. :thumb:

Face it Johnny - putrid excuse that Trump is, he's the best you have in your cesspool of a political party.
It's not my Party. I just am the type that votes for one of the candidates that has at least some minimal chance to win in Presidential elections and that always means Democrat or Republican. So far during my life I've always chosen the Republican. And I believe the Democrat Party has been and is a very destructive influence. I look at the Republican Party as the only viable check.

But now the Republicans have totally screwed up with respect to choosing a nominee. They selected a nominee that no person who is both rational and decent can vote for. It's extremely disappointing to be put into the position of having to vote for the Democrat in a Presidential elections. But that's how badly the Republicans screwed this one up.
butaccording to you, you can´t vote in the closed LA primary because you a regestered Libertarian. :coffee:

That is correct. And I'm fine with that. If I want direct input into who the Republican nominee should be I should be a Republican.

Nevertheless, I cannot believe what the Republican electorate just did. I've defended them for years. I can defend them no longer. All the crap liberals have been saying about them all this time is apparently true. At least it is with respect to enough of a plurality of them to create this obscene situation.

As much as it pains me to say it, the Democrat primary electorate has never done anything as absurd as what the 2015/2016 Republican primary electorate just did.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

Fvck, Johnny, we've been telling you that for the best part of a decade now. Glad to see you're finally getting a clue. :coffee:

Maybe, just maybe, Lindsey Graham, Mitt Romney and they rest of these fucks trying to arrange an independent runner should just take a hint and retire.
