The activist investor tweeted Friday afternoon that he had decided to accept a Trump offer for Treasury secretary. Still, he noted that "the methods of electing our corporate and political leaders have become completely dysfunctional."

Yes, they are billionaires. But then, everybody up on that stage was a millionaire. So it's rich folks against richer folks. The richer folks have a freer hand. Politics is all corrupted by money anyway. So cut out the middlemen, who are faithless to everybody, and get some ballbreakers like Trump in there. I'm for him.

To: Vicomte13 (#6) I have often stated my principles. You don't state yours. At least we have finally found the one Republican tycoon you're willing to fight to the death for, loathsome as he is. Your "principles" keep changing. Pining for Biden to win last week, swooning over the manliness of Donald Trump this week... This is not a picture of principles or consistency.

Certainly, he is no conservative. He's an opportunistic Republican, depending on how much he can get out of it. And you? Are you a Republican or are you willing to let some liberal New York tycoon participate in the GOP nomination process and then decide he isn't a Republican after all and sail off on his yacht to run third party, giving Hitlery a free ride into the White House where her appointments to the Court will cement the Left's agenda into the Constitution?

First off he isn't liberal. Bush and Hillary are best buds. He gave her a freedom award or some crap like that. Barbara said they are like family, the Clintons. Foreign policy Bush and Clinton are 99 percent identical. Trump is different then them by a mile. So if it is Bush vs Clinton I pray Trump runs. I'll vote for him. If it is Cruz vs Clinton. I don't think Trump would go third party. I don't believe in loyalty oaths. You apparently do. I pretty much hate the GOPe that you would vote for. I mean you praised in state tuition Rick Perry.

I believe that if you want to participate in a major party's nomination process, even holding some unorthodox positions in that party, then you have to abide by the results of that process. Period. I was supporting Ron Paul in 2008 and 2012. I always opposed any talk among the Paulian Horde of RP accepting the invitations of LP and CP for a dual-nomination. As you should recall, at this point in the 1999 GOP process, Pat Buchanan jumped ship to run for the Reform nomination. That I did agree with. But Buchanan did not participate in any GOP debates or other party events. He judged his chances of getting the nomination and left the GOP early. A big difference from Trump using the GOP as a launch platform for a third-party run. I don't think the RNC should even allow a candidate in its debates if they won't take the pledge not to run third-party. They don't have to endorse or campaign for the nominee (Ron Paul didn't in 2008 and 2012). But they should be required to forswear a third-party run. I don't favor letting anyone just use the party for their vehicle then jumping ship and destroying that party's chances to win. It's a skunk move. And one that Trump is fully capable of. He is a spiteful and petty man, willing to sue people who speculate he isn't worth as much as he claims or people who write about his four bankruptcies. Trump is remarkably litigious over petty cases of libel. Another bad sign. Tooconservative  posted on  2015-08-11   12:02:59 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #20.
