Republicans could've had a free presidential victory if they nominated someone like Rand Paul. Hillary Clinton is one of the WORST nominees for the Dems in a long time. I don't know a single person that actually likes her, even people voting for her don't like her. The only reason she'll probably win is because Republicans nominated someone even MORE polarizing than Shillary. Trump is a joke.
>But muh MAGA >But Muh Wall
Have fun with that Clinton Presidency folks. You'll need a hell of a lot of meme magic to pull off a Trump victory.
Trump: "I only need poor white males even though demographics have clearly tilted the swing states & some ex-red states against me! I'm totally not fucked on numbers! Victory will totally be mine!"
Asher Parker
All the educated normies and poc will vote for Hillary.

Possibly many of the things people like of Trump could also be found in libertarian candidates with the TPP and things like foreign policy and these could be a concern for republicans voting this year based on who is hoping for these things to take effect who may be disappointed if they dont happen whereas with many libertarian candidates these are founding principles rather than just a suggestion at a rally that can often be big turnarounds and not set in stone.
On the other hand some people in poor areas may be less concerned about libertarian ideas and the issues that concern people with money to invest rather than day to day survival, it is possible that these ideas may just never be appealing to those people as it is based around individuals who compete to make the most money and there is no thought given to community and what could be seen as collectivist type things but some consider these the actual foundations for societies that are good and functioning that push back against things like crime and just general depressing situations. It may be a concern that these libertarians have a credo that they never stray from which means they cant address a world that changes and can become irrelevant based on the circumstances if they could compromise and bring some new ideas in mixed with other things it could be much needed but i am not sure if this can happen or not.

Don't worry, now that Donald is flipping on building THE WALL for the tenth time (but for serious now!) and saying he's going to follow Obama's plan, everything will turn around. The pivot is finally happening! Sup Forums will get the anti-establishment candidate they always wanted: a billionaire who LIKES everything Obama does!
Eli Nguyen
"Yes. I will backtrack and totally not alienate my supporters in the alt-right!"
William Murphy
wow, thanks for correcting the record, i'm shitting my pants for hillary now.
Hunter Morris
>implying the alt right will vote for anyone else even if he does take a massive dump on them They may be retarded but at least they don't buy into the fucking joke that is "voting your conscience". Hicks recognize the election is Trump or Hillary and anything that isn't a vote for Trump, whether it be staying at home or voting third party, is just a Hillary vote.
Luke Brooks
Rand Paul != Ron Paul /Thread
Owen Hernandez
Rand was the perfect man for the job and a true patriot, he was truly anti establishment and got the least time of all candidates in the debates
Carson Young
The dream ticket was Paul Ryan/Condoleeza Rice.
But then the retard bus filled up, and the dream ticket never materialized.
The Republican Party needs to do a better job and maintaining control of its potential candidates.
Ayden Roberts
You're right, Rand Paul > Ron Paul
James Kelly
If you're not going to use super delegates, you're not going to put viability thresholds into your caucuses, and you're also going to let 15+ people run at the same time, you need to ditch the FPTP system for nominations and use a deferred vote ranking. The electorate can't be trusted to vote strategically en masse.
Jackson Lee
>Paul Ryan/Condoleeza Rice. Yea dream ticket for cucks maybe
Daniel Sullivan
>Paul >Electable
Choose one.
Also daily reminder that pic related could have happened.
I am a huge Rand supporter. And i agree he'd do better against Hillary than Trump will.
But i dont think he's the Republicans' best chance to win. He'd be easily painted as "crazy" by the media (even though i dont think he is), and he isnt very charismatc either.
I think Republicans's best shot against Hillary would be with a middle of the road guy like Ryan or Romney. Unfortunately the party got swept up by the Trump Train and theres no going back now.
Easton Stewart
>people actually think any of the 16 dorks that Trump destroyed could have actually beaten Hillary, a women backed by the most powerful political party in the country, that controls all of the media to boot
Top fucking lul. You Cuckservatives are a hilarious bunch. >RAND IS A WHITE RACIST >HIS FATHER IS RACIST >RANDS REAL LAST NAME USED TO BE QWEEROPOTU LMAO QWEEROPOTU DUDE >RAND IS ONLY SUPPORTED BY WHITE DUDES THAT DON'T HAVE A 50k diploma! >RAND CAN'T WIN, HE DOESN'T PANDER TO NIGGERS, SPICS, CHINKS, ARABS, AND THE ENTIRE WORLD
The only thing this dickless cuck would have been good for is letting 'free trade' completely rape us and letting the third world take over via mexico.
You're god damn delusional if you think anyone nominated wouldn't have been destroyed already anyways by the media, and every news paper in the country much like what Trump is dealing with. sage
Ryan Rivera
The only person hillary can possibly beat is donald trump. The only reason he's trailing right now is because he took the kahn bait.
Jack Peterson
I would have been happy with Rand desu, but there was no way he would have gotten the nomination.
Bentley Taylor
"Establishment" Republicans have agreed with you about Paul for several years now about him being unelectable.
It's much harder to make this argument about Kasich, Rubio, or Christie (before he went full retard)
Jacob Wright
Get over it Randlet, your candidate fizzled out. That cunt Cruz at least tried taking a few shots instead of just fading into obscurity with his juice box.
Jason Gomez
Lets be honest the republicans are full of corrupt bought out shills
Were not going to save our country by playing the two party game
Cameron Hall
Obviously. We have Donald fucking Trump as our candidate.
Luis Baker
Why cant we just admit the republican party is controlled opposition at best. We need to stop pretending electing these bought out shills is going to solve anything. Finally we have someone like Donald trump that defends conservative values and you think he is a joke
Kevin Parker
trumps going to win lol
Anthony Gutierrez
Randlet, stop shitposting on this board. Trump won.
