He locked up more delegates than did Ted Cruz, who would have been able to make coherent arguments on topical issues consistent to a core set of principles which when measured against his opponent ought to have resulted in his elevation to be elected to the highest office in the land.

The only thing Trump has done wrong is tricking cuckolds like you into thinking he ever stood a chance against shillary's last name. He handed a gift with the terrorist attack and he absolutely fucked it up. This should have won him the election but he's completely incompetent.

>>77949823
Ted Cruz has no charisma and keeps obsessing over minor details most people don't care about. He only knows how to pander to the ideological wing of the party, decided to go full Tent Rival Hucksterism during the Primary like a total moron, and just in general has no idea how to appeal to those who don't already agree with him. His polling against Hillary began to slide when he started to get some name recognition and people realized he was this cycle's crazy preacher guy. He is an even bigger embarrassment than Trump who has zero appeal outside of Red States.

>>77949823
Ted Cruz is a nutjob who thinks he was chosen by God to become a great leader. He would stand no chance against shillary in the fall, the left hates him even more than Trump.

Good for you.

When Bernie dropped out he was pulling even with Hillary Clinton. This means for the next two weeks he should have talked about nothing but the issues that he and Bernie have common ground on such as the TTIP, money in politics, cost of college, liability of gunshop owners, foreign intervention, etc.

He failed to do this, and as a result lost out on the window to gain many disenfranchised bernie/independents (which is necessary)


The Judge. He could have said:" here's a judge that is a part of a pro-hispanic group La Raza that sympathizes more with the illegal immigrant that killed Kathryn Steinle than Kathryn herself. How can someone associated with that impartially judge me, a man calling to end illegal immigration which disproportionately affects hispanics!". Instead he said "he's mexican", which isn't true as he was born here. He never mentioned La Raza or why he couldn't be impartial. It came off as "He can't judge me because he's brown and I'm not"

The shooting. Again, Trump needed to come out and do the following:
Condemn the shooter and radical islamic terrorism
Tie the foreign policy and domestic security policies of Obama and Clinton to the reason why ISIS is still around to radicalize
how this guy could be interviewed by the FBI multiple times and not be stopped. He should've spent time connecting Clinton to Iraq, Libya and Syria. Obama's red line, etc. He didn't.
Hell He could have even mentioned the practicality of the (((muslim ban))) which in reality would be a travel ban to and from select islamic countries.

Instead, it came off as an attack on the islamic community or muslims in general. Again, his whole message is "Obama wont say or take radical islam seriously", yet when Trump finally gets the chance to talk about it, what he is saying can be interpreted to be against ALL muslims rather than just radical ones.

Neither of us said anything about atheism dude. And if Ted Cruz didn't want to be tarred as a crazy fundamentalist, he shouldn't have 1.) campaigned as a fundamentalist and 2.) should have told Glenn Beck to fuck off or at least tone it down.

A quite evident lie, in spirit. Both of you explicitly mentioned Cruz's religiosity and the negative perception you had of it (after magnifying it, as is your want), one to the exclusion of all other considerations. You here hearken back to that issue alone, to the exclusion of those other things I've raised in both of my posts, demonstrating the high importance you place on serving the left's secularist agenda and advancing it on the right wing, however manifest a bad an idea this is politically. Better had you stuck to misrepresenting all polling available in order to restate your fallacious reasoning.

Oh, you're just an idiot then. Sorry ol' chap, but Cruz made his religiosity the central theme of his campaign, as such it is the central issue of his candidacy. Once again, blame the One True Ted himself if you don't like it. And just what points did you make in your previous posts. "He had a better grasp of the 'Issues' and the 'Arguments'." Like that matters. Also, you want to talk polling, let's talk results. Cruz lost. If he was going to mop the floor with Hillary, why did he not destroy Trump? His appeal isn't half as great as you true believers want to think it is.

No, my target-fixated friend, Cruz made constitutionalism and his history of standing against Washington the central theme of his campaign. You were just too busy mocking and positioning against him with disingenuous attacks and lying memes to pay any attention. It's why you're back here now regurgitating your circlejerk logic even as the choice you did make now has all the appearance of going over like a lead balloon.
>He had a better grasp of the 'Issues' and the 'Arguments'." Like that matters.
There's a lot in there, and a lot that matters a hell of a lot. The ability to speak like an intelligent human being, for one, and not like a bumbling idiot as several in the thread have pointed out as being a weakness of Trump. Too, there's the point that Cruz's arguments, being rooted in solid principles, have the CHANCE of better articulation, for unlike Trump, Cruz didn't come by them for reasons of mere political expediency because he thought it would get him a few more votes in this state or that, suddenly pivoting once that state is behind him (and look, Cruz actually was widely recognized for his skill at articulation, being known for his sharp debate skills). It's almost as if character matters, huh? Or at least more than your overestimation of Trump's "ability" (not so refined) of being able to speak untruths into realities. That only ever worked with the kool-aide crowd.
>Also, you want to talk polling, let's talk results. Cruz lost. If he was going to mop the floor with Hillary, why did he not destroy Trump?
Considering how little you appreciate the above, it doesn't surprise that you can't appreciate the differences between primary and general elections, or the different rules and conditions by which they are conducted.

Hillary's numbers are only going to go up once she consolidates her base.

You can intellectualize it all you want, but your evangelicals and mega church preachers freak everyone out, except maybe someone living in a trailer in the bible belt or someone with the aura of a serial killer. Especially when they hysterically call for death of gays based on the bible. That's also where you lost the appeal to "eternal values".

And if I am going with eternal values, I am going with classical Rome and Greece. I actually wish, the USA did that and reinvigorated their roots of the founding fathers. The entire influence of semitic religions, from Judaic supremacy and Zionnism from AIPAC to FED, evangelical Christianity and good goy neocons, to the alliance between Islam and leftism is very harmful.

Better had Trump not had a lawsuit against him in the first place for running a fake university in order to scam people out of their money, that he didn't fell the need to distract from it by resorting to a plainly evident race bait, the same tactics that worked so well early in the campaign when not nearly as many people were paying attention (they were paying just enough attention to begin the ball rolling on his negativity ratings, though, which makes it all the more perplexing that Trump though attacking a judge for his ethnicity--wrongly, in that he was Indiana born--was a good long-term fix).

>>
>>77948133
Honestly all the polls are irrelevant until about a month before the election. Look at 2012 and 2008 polling, they were all over the place, nothing becomes predictive until October.

As for the reasons trump has gone down in the last few weeks, there are a couple.

First and foremost the democrats are uniting. They have a presumptive nominee now, and she has consolidated support. Most of the bernouts who said they weren't going to vote for Hillary have proven to be full of shit or are people who weren't going to vote anyway.

Secondly, third parties are hurting trump. Both Gary Johnson and Romney's pet candidate are taking some support from Trump.

Thirdly, you can't deny that Trump's big mouth has gotten him into trouble. He completely bungled the Orlando Shooting response, which should've sent his numbers skyrocketing.

Finally the anti-Trump media campaign has gone into another gear. I've never seen anything like it. It's 24/7 wall-to-wall anti-Trump coverage from pretty much every TV and Print outlet in the country. Trump is more resistant to media propaganda than the usual candidate, but no one can come out unscathed from the cacophony of criticism he is currently getting. My one positive from this is I think they are sort of shooting their wad a bit early. After a month of this there will be nothing left to say in the fall that hasn't already been said. Trump has shown a unique ability to generate "scandal fatigue" in voters. They sort of become numb to the criticism after they've heard it 10,000x.

Also on the positive side, the opposition's points are pretty weak imo. The only things they really have are Trump University, "racism" and lack of political experience. None of those have proved effective at hurting Trump's polling. Trump's worst enemies are opposition consolidation and his own big mouth. I'm left thinking, "this is the best you've got?"

Were we to do that, your bashing would only be compounded a hundred fold. We were at the time of our founding and in the culture that sparked it a people much more moved by religious values than what is held by even the most vocal modern proponent of the country "finding it's religion." Far less of the bigotry, though, which posts as yours shows has no need of a religion, did those same people have, that enlightenment values could nonetheless be conducted from the classical period into that era. It's almost as if you hold the wrong things responsible for the perceived faults of your world, and give credit for those that are good similarly to the wrong things.

Trump made some very considered speeches at the time of his California victory, but then he slipped back into shitposting and being childish.

Diversion.

Trump attacked a judge that had been on the case ongoing since 2014 for things said after that trial was well underway. He did that to divert attention away from the decision itself, and the information that became available from it; the details of Trump University.

You speak as if Trump were representative of "the right," when he has for the greater majority of his life self-identified as a democrat. You speak as if Trump does not pull regularly from the well of the left's agenda items, as if it were the most natural thing in the world for a Republican nominee to do. You speak as if Trump did not hold New York Values, or hold them up as more laudable than the values of that part of the country which ultimately supported Trump regardless.

You speak as if Trump were anything but a liar of low character, just as are so many eastern establishment libs he better personifies.

Now, when they're not casting aside principle for the (mistaken) benefits of expediency, character matters more to that side which allows itself to be defined by it than the other side. Further, you should want it to be this way, and not grow jealous of the other side for their lack of character, and the seeming tactical advantages it gives them to be able to lie with ease and not pay a political price for it within their own circles. Their habit results in a people elevating leaders who lie to them with regularity, and do not serve them, but distracts them with still more lies, lies they internalize and propagate as if they were truths.

It would be a damnable thing indeed if the right began to model itself on the left in this way too, as some in the alt-right openly hopes for. The more we collectively go away from men of character in our politics, the more Hillary-like will our leaders increasingly be. Trump is a huge leap towards that standard.

According to your circlejerk, as spoken to (on this issue) by the secularist wing of American politics. By all polling, which your circlejerk consciously and continually detracted from (I shouldn't put it in past-tense terms, for a lot of you are still doing it), Cruz's appeal was the broadest of all Republican candidates within the party, with a high tendency to retain a hold on those in the right-leaning tent from among the general electorate. This evident reality, of course, is what led to Cruz becoming the principle opponent to Trump after the field finally narrowed. That Cruz ultimately lost out to Trump is solely owing to the fact that this winnowing happened as late as it did. Had the establishment hopefuls recognized the writing on the wall and gotten the fuck out, Ted Cruz would be your nominee. Considerable weight of opinion should be given over to the point that this is precisely why they stayed in as long as they did, for from their perspective it's a better deal to lose one election and hold onto the reigns of power than risk winning with Ted Cruz and see their power evaporate.

RCP average is just an average. So the three extreme +Clinton weighed it down. It will recover as more polls shift into the average.

That's kind of irrelevant to my point. This isn't about Sanders' overall support or numbers. This is about the type of mental gymnastics his supports do/did when he is/wasn't succeeding.
