Trump blocks his challengers from primaries

Eventually the entire 2020 election will be canceled and that will be another new norm everyone just accepts. Bookmark this post.

I wonder if Trump will be in the debates with the democrat candidate,lol

They might as well. It’s not like the popular vote actually means anything anyway. Other than to say “see, we let you vote.” The popular vote didn’t elect Trump. The electoral college did.

Yep, that is all explained in the article for anyone who cares to read it and wants to be honest about it. Its not a new Trump “authoritarian” thing.
Still, I had not heard of this before, and I’m glad Texas doesn’t do it. Even if it is just a formality, people should be allowed an input into the nomination of the major parties.

Oh, and Arizona Democrats dropped the primary in 2012.

Yeah those two aren’t here this time. Now you have the guitar player for the Eagles Joe Walsh it’s just not gonna happen

Two thoughts. Political parties can choose their candidate in any manner they wish. What hurt Hillary wasn’t rigging the primary, it was rigging it against a popular challenger, no such thing exists here. If someone that had the support level Bernie did existed and the GOP pulled this it would hurt them too.

And I say that as someone who really can’t believe Trump isn’t facing a strong challenge to his incumbency from a more popular and rational GOP pol.

Get back to me when he starts issuing kill orders against US citizens without due process.

I want choices…if there is a viable republican challenger, I want to be able to vote for a republican to defeat Trump. If not, I will have to defeat him by voting for a democrat.

Impeach Trump!

This has NEVER happened before! He’s rigging the primaries!

Huh huh. That’s hysterical.

^^^^

This.

I also want a GOP choice on primary ballot to begin the process of voting out Trump who I see as hurting the GOP brand.

However I can’t commit to voting for a Democrat at this stage, it will depend on who wins the DEM nomination. If it’s someone in the vein of Clinton, I’ll do what I did in 2016 by voting GOP - with a write-in ballot for someone other than Trump. If the DEM nominee is more of centrist and it looks like Congress will remain split between parties, then I just might vote for a DEM nominee.

(NOTE: I started voting in 1978 and have ALWAYS voted GOP. Prior to 2016 is was the GOP nominee. In 2016 is was a GOP write-in.)

That’s not who is running.

That corrupt president is gone. Thanks for playing.

The 2020 Presidential election should be cancelled since Trump is the chosen one. He should be President for life.

And cancelling the 2020 Presidential election will save the chosen one with losing the nationwide popular vote again.

Democrats love to waste other people’s money. Just another example of that here, but this time they’re peeved because the GoP is saving their money to use it to slay socialism in the US. The article is desperately trying to paint Trump as a Hillarian primary cheat, when things are running the same as many other second term presidential bids. The article was also lacking in any facts to support claims of Trump putting up barriers.

It appears that South Carolina Republican Party violated it’s own rules when they voted to cancel next year’s primary election.

The potential rule violation could open up the state party to legal challenges from Trump’s primary challengers.
