Trump cheats at golf - the ONE and ONLY politics thread

Did he buy a new iPhone to send the tweet?

 

So boycotts only apply to new purchases? So if I decide to boycott NFL games, but somebody gives me a free ticket then I'm good?

Chloe Grace Moretz Says Young Women Are 'Afraid' to Vote Hillary Clinton as She Stumps for Presidential Hopeful in Nevada

 

Three factions at play, all pretty much divided into equal thirds:

Trump: The "Blow up the system, I don't give a shit" candidate

Cruz: The tea party "Let's blow up the system, but from within" candidate (I think Carson voters will swing to him)

Rubio, Jeb, Kasich: The establishment old guard candidates (This may stay fractured to the end, clearing the way for the other two)

The only way the GOP avoids a brokered convention is if somebody starts putting together a string of winner-take-all states after Super Tuesday.

I also think if Trump happens to win the nomination straight up, the party will hold its nose and will back him, like they did with Wendell Willkie, the closest comparison to Trump there is.

Drive a stake through his heart, behead him, and bury the body at a crossroads and maybe I'll believe that. Maybe.

 

“So here’s where I’m a little bit different,” he continued. “I don’t want people dying on the streets.”

That does make him different from the GOP mainstream. I can see why it's controversial.

 

Trump is on his fourth or fifth cat. His campaign should have died about 30 gaffes ago.
