BTW: According to a Trump voter in Hawaii on Twitter, the only candidate running ads in Hawaii was Little Marco.

LOL

The only arguments I've heard against Trump from the right that actually make sense are from religious people who disapprove of Trump on moral grounds. They might couch it in different terms, but it ultimately comes down to their belief that Trump is not to be trusted because they view him as immoral. They view everything through the lens of their religion, after all. We're talking about people who would strongly disapprove of everyone on this forum as well.

Obviously I disagree with them but at least that's a concrete reason not to vote for him from their point of view. It's better than the baseless fear mongering all the other anti-Trumpers use.

If they're objecting to Donald Trump on the grounds that he's immoral it's difficult to see how the hell they could be voting for Ted Cruz. Or any politician. Politicians serve only one god: power.

I'm not saying it makes sense objectively. Have you ever looked into some of the crazy stuff some of the more extreme religious sects believe? Or even just some of the stuff in the bible. Yeah, I'm looking at you, Leviticus. Dodgy

I don't want to get into a big theological discussion or anything, but while I believe in God and I am a Christian, I am firmly convinced about 98% of everything in organized religion is about controlling people through a combination of social pressure and fear. So, given that, I don't expect people who fully buy into organized religion to be particularly objective about the world.

As an example, they might consider Cruz morally superior to Trump simply because Cruz is still married to his first wife, and Trump is on wife #3. I bet that fact alone is enough to cost Trump considerable votes. And I think you might be surprised how superficially many religious people view things.

It's difficult to explain to these people that we are not voting for a pastor, we're voting for a guy in charge of executing laws and commanding armies. You don't pick a nice guy for this job.

Constantine, one of the most important Christians who ever lived, had multiple wives and bastard children, was a warlord, yet converted the Roman empire. Lots of Evangelicals do not see the big picture, they really think voting for President is like shopping for a minster.

Somewhat offtopic but poetic. Kansas who went Canadian just had a mass shooting occur.

You don't want to see this stuff happen, but it does mean Trump will be validated once again.

CNN just called Hawaii for Trump

Submissive and married women likely to tip Trump for his perceived big cock, giving him a clear win, while bulldykes dreaming of Hillary will be a much lesser influence, and nagging jewesses and hippies remain unimpressed with Bernies tiny putz.

This is the prediction of Dr. Daniel Wilkins, Professor Emeritus of Anthropology and Sociology at University of Wisconsin, and recent author of "Sexual Poliitcs"

Trump winning Hawaii? Didn't see that coming, but that's great! And he handsomely won Mississippi and Michigan and didn't lose too badly in Idaho - things are looking up!

Agree

I think someone posted earlier that Trump needed 64 delegates today to stay on track. Seems like he'll well cleared that goal. Can't wait to see Nate Silver and FiveThirtyEight write another piece on how the Republicans can theoretically stop Trump. That dude really does not even try to hide his bias.

I like the idea of an RoK reporter, but given the recent crises with the meetup and everything I think it might be best to just lay low. No sense in giving the lying media more stuff to smear the Don with.

I know who he is. That doesn't mean he's not weak.

This guy has been a talking head for a long time. He may be smart. That doesn't mean he's not weak or wrong. He has been wrong on everything (as seen when he was calling "peak Trump" in July), and every time I've seen him talk he has a weak, vacillating little frame.

It's much the same way with much of the globalists. They are weak, weak people. They're little cockroaches that scatter at the first sign of light. When someone stands up to them, they react with a desperate snark.

Trump's pulled the curtain back on all of them. If these guys didn't have their cushy social and donor networks, they'd be absolutely nothing. They are weak, pathetic men.

Completely disagree with this. Look at where the country was in 1950 and where it is today. The people you call weak have managed to utterly transform (destroy) our society and pushed people like us to the "dark corners" of the internet. We are weak, they are strong. They are the ones who unapologetically push their sick subversive agenda on billions of people around the world via the media and popular culture, while we mostly cower anonymously behind our keyboards.

Kristol is neither weak, nor wrong. He's wrong from your perspective, because his goals are different from yours. To you, invading Iraq was a massive mistake. To Kristol, invading Iraq was a brilliant, joyous affair. People died and money was wasted, but the people who died and whose money was wasted are people who Kristol hates, anyway. What do you call it when you get to accomplish your goal (destroying Iraq) at the "price" of thousands of dead bodies and trillions in debt suffered by people you hate? A massive, unambiguous success.

If Trump wins and manages to do what he said he'll do, then that will be the first significant setback Kristol and his ilk will have suffered since WWII. But that hasn't happened yet and even if it did, it would be just one defeat among a continuous pattern of successes that have left them at the precipice of complete victory. Why do many of us believe that this election is the "last chance" to avert complete disaster for the country? Because the forces Bill Kristol is a part of are not weak. Complete disaster for people like us is total, irreversible victory for Bill Kristol, and we are on the verge of such a victory. A Trump presidency may or may not buy time, but if I had to make a long term bet on "us" or Bill Kristol, I'd bet on Bill Kristol. Doesn't mean I like it, but it's better to understand things for how they are rather than for how we want them to be.

He just put out a pretty nice analysis on why Little Marco never has a base:
