The Trump Candidacy

an agreement or a settlement of a dispute that is reached by each side making concessions.
"an ability to listen to two sides in a dispute, and devise a resolution acceptable to both"

That is the definition of a word i believe you are incapable of understanding.

...he could actually get something done in an meaningful fashion.

Never could figure this argument out..."get something done..."

Democrats want YUUUUGE government controlling everything.

Republicans want small government letting people control themselves.

So why is half way between those two divergent paths the best way forward?

That's the system.  The bullshit is when one side tries to eliminate both the other side, and any ability to negotiate or compromise.

It really is

[catastrophe]

Everyone knows republicans are in favor of states' rights and the constitution and democrats are in favor of socialism and disarming law abiding citizens.

This isn't buying a car...it's governing human beings.

Even more adorable that you went for that aged timeworn knee-jerk response.

In a perfect world, we'd probably just call this thing quits right now and give the thing to Kasich. that won't happen though because of how batcrap crazy the majority of republicans are. is it too late for Kasich to switch and start running as a dem? probably, huh?

Kasich wouldnt win the Dem nomination either. He is a good politician without a party to lead. there really needs to be a third party that is like centrist. Maybe we should just change our system to a parliamentary system. multiple parties work great there.

LOL at Kasich being "centrist." On moral issues he's about as far right as you can go.

Kasich is also Oscar-level weird/awkward.

oh i know but he is what passes in today's world, i mean he is also for a balanced budget amendment which would ruin the economy but alas he at least seems to actually care about people.

yeah, he actually cares about people, unless you count women and homosexuals as people.

Bloomie will save us

Evidently there was a poll(in by Bloomberg media, lol) this week that asked if ppl would vote for him.  55% said no.

What percentage said yes?

Podcast that mentioned it didn't say.

If he's around 30% or so, he should definitely run. He wouldn't have to improve that much to win. Of course, the poll needs to be legitimate (maybe this one was ).

Put 250 people in a room of varying political knowledge and there is no way 30% of them can identify Bloomberg's political identity. Being mayor of NYC qualifies you for President in a similar manner as being the advisor of a high school student council.

I legitimately think Kasich as the nominee would be the pubs' best bet to win the general. He has actual experience governing, he is centrist enough on a lot of stuff to convince an anti-Hillary moderate that he's a better recipient of their vote than her, and he seems infinitely more fair-minded and level-headed than the three blustering clowns in the middle last night. I mean those three were a legitimate clown show. I could potentially even be persuaded to vote for Kasich. I mean I won't, but if he were elected president I wouldn't think it was the end of the world like I would with Trump. And that's why the 'Pubs should nominate him. But they won't, because he looks awkward and doesn't have a ton of good sound bytes and isn't inflammatory enough.

[lopakman]

How soon would Trump get us in WW3?  three months tops.  I really don't want to go to war with China because Trump called Xi Jinping slant eyed or some other racist comment about a country with over a billion people and almost a million more people in their army.  I don't think I'd make a very good communist.  I think some people here would though.

I've got news for all you political amatuers. It's the primaries, all the candidates are singing as far from the center as possible (i.e., crazy).  Im sure you will all be stunned and enraged when they all "flip flop" during the general.

Another thing, the republicans dngaf what the libtards think about their policy positions or whether they are "moderate" enough, anymore than the libtards care how much the pubs think they're rough ridin' loony for all the insane crap they say.  It's a race to the bottom in primary season.

Decent point by SD.
