Random Politics & Religion #00

Exactly.
It is all a distraction honestly. A game.
The question is. Who is going to break the game? It sure as hell won't be hillary or bernie. But we are not talking about them atm.
So out of Trump and Cruz, who if either, is the one that will break D.C.. Which one is honestly hated by the people that play the game and do nothing but distract the population with the same issues over and over in the vicious circle we know as politics.
All I know for certain is before this election started everyone in D.C. hated Cruz. Was that by design? I dunno.. Possibly..
Trump on the other hand is just playing a popularity contest with the Media doing all of his work.

A lot of R's are endorsing Cruz, it's like they are sobering up and realizing Trump crazy is too crazy. Current GOP needs to do that before they will have a decent chance at winning the presidency.
I wouldn't say "a lot." I don't think he has picked up a major endorsement yet, nobody likes him and no one thinks he would be a good President. Put it this way, he hasn't picked up an endorsement that is going to help him win any of the remaining primaries. I don't know why/how/if endorsements really sway people at all, one would think people would have their own thoughts and opinions. "Oh, Christie like Trump? Well, I guess I do too." I just don't get it. it's more like, "well I was going to vote for A maybe but since he dropped out and supports B and hates C, I'll vote for B. it's almost like I did vote for you A, you beautiful ***." Not really, I kinda liked Christie, I don't like Trump at all. Christie endorsed Trump. You'd think that would be political suicide.
It is. The only reason hes doing it is to stay relevant. His state hates him (about 30% approval rating 59% against). The only way he stays in the political arena is if a politician asks him to, like Trump.

maybe he should switch parties...
no one on the republican side is ever going to let his "boardwalk date with obama" go.
he can pretend he had a change of heart...gain back all the weight. talk about gun control

"Presidential elections are just planed distractions

"Or a petty money squabble when your marriage is in trouble
"Or a football game when there is rioting in the street"

Resentment will only eat you up inside. It will make you bitter, obviously.

I mean, with all of the virol and hate he spews, at least he isn't a known criminal and a socialist.

Hell, you can wear a foam giant finger rooting for the cops too. Just make sure it's not the one that flips them off, then you probably will get arrested for inciting a riot.

That (old/laziness) doesn't prevent you from pulling up a lawn chair and watch the action live.
unless it's right outside my house it does...
you gotta drive to the trump event, find strategic parking, walk, carry the lawnchair around, pack a picnic, bring a gas mask, wear running shoes
too much work

Why? You expect people to bring Taco Bell to a Trump event?
I thought we were building a wall to keep shitty Tex-Mex food away from the rest of the country!

Speaking of walls.
Quote: A top Homeland Security official told Border Patrol agents the Obama administration has “no intention of deporting” many of the illegal immigrants caught trying to sneak into the country, ordering instead that they be released so they don’t clog up the courts, a leading advocate for agents testified to Congress.

Look, I'm too lazy to put up a fuss over immigration, but banning horrible Tex-Mex like Taco Bell? I don't think so, chico. Not on my watch!
That there is my hill to die on.
Vive mas!

Rules and Guidelines
Forum Rules and P&R Section Guidelines still apply.
Satire is tolerated.
If your topic covers a story over 6 months old (Watergate, Benghazi, 2012 Election, etc.) post it here.
Discussions on racism, homophobia, transphobia, and the like are allowed, targeted insults based on these will not be tolerated.
Political debates get heated and are meant to be intense, if you take offense to being called or proven wrong, you don't belong here.
If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen; if you prove you can't handle the criticism you bring upon yourself in this thread, you may be removed from it. You are responsible for what you post.
Along those lines, heat is fine, but sustained, clearly personal hostility is not okay. The personal attack rules still apply. Attack positions, not posters. Failure to adhere to this will result in your removal from the thread.
