Trump, Pelosi, Schumer Debate in Public

 

Ignoring the content for a moment of this video, I just want to say:  I love this.  I love that this exchange took place in front of the American people.  Pelosi wanted to shut down the disagreement, to go behind closed doors, cut some sort of deal, decide how to couch it to the American people, and claim they got agreement on something.  I love it.

    It requires something, and the perception is that Trump has failed to deliver on this promise. He’ll be a one-term Prez unless he does. I won’t vote for him unless he delivers, and I won’t be alone.

    Who will you vote for? Say it’s Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. It’s binary. Do you vote for Harris if he doesn’t have the wall?

    I would vote for John Kasich who would be elected in a three-way race with Trump and Harris.

    Remember, in 1912, the Republican Candidate came in third.

    So the question is, if Kasich is running ahead of Trump, would you vote for Kasich instead of Trump to prevent the election of Harris?

    I filed an OP on this question titled “Who would you vote for:  Trump vs. Harris/Sanders/Spartacus vs. Kasich?”  I would like to hear your vote, and why you would vote that way.

    Who were ##15-17?

    I’m gonna make a wild guess that Jeb & Kasich were two of them.

    And I find Kasich contemptible, as well. On policies I care about, he’s more liberal than Trump with the added pandering to Democrats.

    So, not a personality thing, but a policy thing.

    It’s odd; I vaguely remember back when he was in Congress and a lot of people thought he had the goods then. I could probably see myself voting for that Kasich.

    Exactly. I find it sad that we can’t get back to the attitude of “wasn’t my first choice, but I can live with him/her”. Now, it seems, that someone’s “completely unacceptable/I’d vote Hillary first” candidate is someone else’s first and only choice. I knew people in Silicon Valley, mostly former HP employees, who said that if Carly were on the ticket against Satan himself, it would be a hard choice.

    I heard whisperings along that line, but my only experience with him was the 2016 primaries and he sounded more Democrat than Jeb.

    A good and solid moderate – indistinguishable from a Democrat with an R.

    I have a similar remembrance of Kasich then. I also remember G. Gordon Liddy taking issue with that conventional wisdom. Liddy’s concern was that Kasich was weak on the second amendment and a bit of a weasel, if I remember right. Seems as though Liddy’s version of Kasich has become the more dominant version.

    Tied for last place were Bush and Kasich. Next to last depended on the day of the week.
