Libertarian, Meatball has shown his true cards. He is bought and paid for by Big Tech and Big Money that includes Big Ag. He will never represent the American people!!! America first? Afraid NOT, it’ll be Big Tech first! Where did that $200 million come from? Why now and not 2028? Big Tech and Big Money want no parts of PDJT, that’s why! Ronnie Meatball will answer to the money! Where was Meatball at that Mar-a-Lago ordeal? Hiding! He never said a damn word!!! We don’t need his kind and I will not vote for that kind!

Hypothetically Stella, do you think Trump would win if he switched to Libertarian? Personally, I don’t think his massive following would care what he ran as! People have seen enough of the usual R & D stuff. They saw Trump get this economy up and running with larger paydays and that’s what America wants! Thus, the large following. A better question might be: can Trump win the Presidency as a write-in? Today, I would say “bet your bottom dollar.” Americans are now seeing through that chaff and countermeasures stuff!

All I can say: Trump is running as a Republican, not as a Libertarian or an Independent. Why do you think that is? Part of it is that he needs the infrastructure and support of the Republican Party. The state organizations are critical to winning an election. President Trump is no dummy. He knows the answers to your questions. It isn’t just about who will vote for Trump no matter what party he is affiliated with. And I don’t believe that all of those who will vote for Trump as a Republican would vote for him as a Libertarian. Because people are party loyal. That is true for Republicans as much as for Democrats.

There’s part if the problem! Party loyalty. NOT the best person who would be qualified! But Who is running on your Party ticket! Again, I think this is what opened a lot of eyes on Trump! Do people voting along Party lines, not vote for the one who provides lower gas prices, better paychecks, increase in their portfolios? They would rather slit their own throats? Gotta believe all those Trump followers are NOT just Republicans! There will be a large swath of Independents and a healthy chunk of Democrats. Party loyalty is for diehards. There are a few good Democrats, but I find them mostly in the Local elections, not the Federal elections.
On another note Stella, it’s almost just you and I here, somehow I’m feeling lit up. So time to take a major break and let life play out, LOL! Thank you for the banter. I’m a bit opinionated! You made my day, thanks again!

Also consider this: Most registered voters vote straight party, if it is available on the ballot.
https://www.courthousenews.com/most-registered-voters-to-vote-straight-ticket-poll-shows/
The latest Pew Research Center survey released Wednesday on the U.S. election finds that an overwhelming majority of registered voters plan to vote only for Republicans or only for Democrats on Election Day.
The researchers report that only 4% of those registered voters said they plan to vote a split ticket — a ballot cast for a mix of candidates from both parties — when they go to the polls ahead of the 2020 election.

I’ve already answered this question more than once, but I’ll repeat. If I have a choice between Ron and Biden (or someone worse, like Harris or Newsome), I’ll probably vote for Ron. I won’t waste my vote on a third party candidate, and I certainly wouldn’t vote for RFK Jr. Either one would be like not voting at all. Of course, that’s another choice, but not one I choose.

Ron is no longer close to a conservative, he’s bought and paid for by Big Tech! Did you see his response to Tucker’s questions? He don’t care what the people don’t like! His response will be to who paid him (Big Tech & Big Money), NOT the Amrican people! Buh bye Meatball!

Of course I saw his responses to Tucker’s questions. They weren’t that bad, for a politician. I know one thing: He’s better than the D’s, and 3rd party candidates won’t win. Let’s be honest here. If we don’t vote for an R, we are voting for a D.

Why is it that the Dems are always so organized in votes? You NEVER hear anyone say anything about Biden, no? Only the Right calls out the lies! Is Ron Meatball uniting the Republican Party by running against Trump? Do you actually think that the Dems are going to run Biden in his condition? It’ll be Newsome. If they put Newsome in in place of Harris and Biden steps aside, now we have a President that never received 1 Federal vote! Remember Gerry Ford? He was 3rd in line! Who’s 3rd in line now?
LikeLike
Harris would have to resign (I doubt that will happen) or be removed by some legal means, in order for Newsome to be appointed VP. Very unlikely. Even if that did happen, there would still be an election in 2024. Remember Gerald Ford? And Jimmy Carter? Unless Biden runs and wins in 2024, THEN Harris is disappeared, and Newsome replaces her. Even then, there would be another election in 2028.
Speaking of the unity of the D party, it might work better if R’s were united behind the R-nominated candidate. According to you, that is a bad thing – because we couldn’t possibly support DeSantis if he is the nominee. By the way, I don’t think he will be, but that’s another issue.

If Harris gets the POTUS, the Dems will never see another victory in POTUS voting! There was a reason Harris dropped out before a vote was ever cast! You actually believe Harris could be a POTUS? The Dems would be the laughing stock of the world! Cringe worthy! Rigged elections have consequences, we’re see it play out now! What to do with Harris? Set her up for life and resign the position. Install Newsome and Joe has issues, now we have a POTUS that never ran for the position! Now do you see why I included Gerry Ford? Who’s 3rd in line now? Connecting the dots? The Dems have a major problem!!!

I think Trump will get the R nomination, but I will vote for an R no matter who it is. Because of Biden, and Harris and all the rest of those snakes. If I don’t vote, or if I vote for a Libertarian, that is one more vote given to the D party. That is the truth.

Tell me Stella, how come we elect a Republican in the past, they never corrected what the Democrat did? I’ll tell you why, R’s and D’s are wings of the same traitor bird, that’s why!

If and when there is a MAGA party, I would probably back their Presidential candidate. But there is no MAGA party. Just the R’s and the D’s, and a bunch of smaller parties that have never won a Presidential election. It makes sense to me to support the R candidate against the D candidate, even though the R candidate may not be my favorite. That is what the D’s do, and it works for them, as you have already pointed out.
Wishing and hoping have a place in politics, but they don’t help in an election.

Trump must agree with me, because he is running as an “R”, not a MAGA, or any other party. He recognizes what is true: No 3rd party has ever won a Presidential election. If we don’t stick together – no matter how thorny the relationship – we lose. That is a fact, and one that the D’s recognized long ago.

We have a winner in PDJT, what’s Meatball running for? Big Tech et al want no part of Trump, so they get Meatball $200 million to run against Trump! See the charade? Without the $200 million, Meatball doesn’t run! Big Tech doesn’t need Meatball for anything other than get Trump from winning! Do you honestly believe Meatball COULD win against Trump? The fix is in! If anyone could beat the fix, it’s Trump. Do you really believe Slo’ Joe got 81 million votes running from his basement? It’ll be interesting to see how they can fix the votes this time! The Dominion machine is the only thing left! America is fed up with the D’s and R’s running as wings of the same bird!

How about what I said elsewhere here, Rename the Republican Party to the Lion Party and get rid of that awful elephant character! Third Party stuff would have a difficult time, just replace the usual BS of the GOP with what Trump brings! He has that kind of power with the people! Re-align the Party from the GOPe to MAGA. Trump has that huge following for a reason! People are fed up with that mickey mouse R stuff! Put some meat on that bone, Trump showed us how! Trump is a doer, not a talker! Meatball just showed his true hand in taking the big bucks, Trump couldn’t be bought! Kari Lake is following in that image. It’s no coincidence they had to rig her election also. The precedent has been set by PDJT. Hillary wanted in on the action, but Trump saw what the ploy was and exposed it! America is becoming more awake, NOT WOKE!

I don’t disagree with most of what you are saying. I am simply pointing out that if Trump isn’t the nominee, it makes no sense to run to the Libertarians or stay home. It accomplishes nothing. Regardless of what you believe about DeSantis (or any of the other R candidates), it makes more sense to hold your nose and vote R. Surely you don’t really believe that I support the GOPe?

I agree with all that you said about President Trump, except that I don’t think he would have a snowball’s chance in hell of winning as a write-in candidate. Why? Because he would be running against both the R and D candidates, both of whom would have their own followers. The R ticket would be split, and the D candidate would win. That is exactly what happened when Clinton won the first time.
I respect your loyalty to Pres. Trump, but I am a realist, and so is he. He won’t run either as a write-in or for a 3rd party. He knows he can’t win that way.
