Part of me is in denial about Trump being the republican nominee.

Well, they did it. They actually did it.
All off those media folks, republican folks, democrat folks that said from the beginning this could - would never happen.
Well, it just happened.

Such an odd alignment of misfits.
The day that a major American political party sold its very soul in hopes of controlling the courts.
Will it pay off? Worth it?
The lesson from history, this never pans out as expected.
The stage is set for things to go bad, very very bad.
When the economy crashes, riots become the national pastime, people suffer and poverty explodes, I doubt the makeup of the US Supreme court will be on very many minds.



Actually did what, follow the will of the voters and their primary votes, which resulted in Trump attaining the required level of delegates to secure the nomination, per the rules? That's what we call democracy, pal. That's allowing that the people have spoken.You need to get back to the understanding that our elected officials are supposed to work for us, and are chosen by us, not the other way around.

I don't care if Republicans or Democrats do it, subverting the will of the voters to favor who the elites want to pick is just wrong. If it didn't work the way it's supposed to, we might as well just allow the elites to select our dictators for us. That would be Un-American.

Why are you losing your shit over this, are you afraid that Trump might actually win? I'm not betting on anyone, just yet.
