All discussion of the candidates, updates and results should go here

For example- here's a video of Ted Cruz vying for world domination.


Also Hilary Clinton is a crook and nobody should have sex with her.

Discuss

(Note- The title will change as we get nearer the election, previous titles will be archived in the OP)

They got a bit buttmad after most of the candidates who used their support just turned around and became typical Republicans once they were elected.

Despite their rhetoric, though, that's what they wanted? I mean it was hard to get the Tea Party to talk about specific policies but nothing they ever called for was foreign to the Republican party's longstanding policy manifesto.

The rank and file Tea Partiers wanted better economic conditions for poor white people and some social stuff like banning gay marriage. What they got from the Republican Party were tax breaks for the wealthy. It's a bait and switch move that the party has been playing for a long time now, and the base is just starting to realize they've been hoodwinked. Which is why Trump is winning and the party insiders don't know what to do.

Info is thin on the ground but all available polling says it's gonna be a good night for :trump:

Now because of how unpredictable Nevada is the outcome could be different. A sign that trump will do well- The rival campaigns are already packing up and moving out.

I dunno, my conviction remains that the Tea Party was really just a rebranding of a force that had always been present in American politics, and that attempts to analyse it as some kind of product of short-term events (Obama's election, the GFC, Mercury being in retrograde, w/e) were quite pointless. So it's fading because the brand has lost its lustre. But the people who believed in the Tea Party's values are still there, still believe the same thing, and still behave the same way. Just as they did five years before the Tea Party was a thing.

Of course, it's not like it was that revolutionary or anything. But it's still nice to have an actual name for it, and a little picture to go along with it as horrible little bonus.
 
John Kasich is still in the race, which is pretty odd since I thought of him as like Martin O'Malley, in which no one cares about him but his home state.

But if Trump asks him to be VP, this gives Trump a good chance to win Ohio.

And you know all about Ohio, right?
 
If the other Republican candidates all dropped out except one and all endorsed the survivor, they might - might - have a chance of beating Trump. Trump has high negatives and a lot of Republicans do not like him, and would probably be prepared to hold their nose and vote for just about anybody other than Trump.

Unfortunately there is no clear second tier candidate - both Rubio or Cruz could theoretically fill this role but obviously neither wants to be the one to throw it to the other one. And both Kasich and Carson are unlikely to drop. Kasich might theoretically be persuaded since he is politically very far from Trump and has some loyalty to the Republican party as an institution. Carson's campaign, though, is taking place in what amounts to an alternative universe. It'd be hard to know how to even begin approaching him.

So it's probably going to be like a late-game game of Diplomacy, where the "everybody-has-to-gang-up-on-that-guy-to-take-him-out" moment is only clear in retrospect.
 
Intresting tidbit- Republican superdoners are not buying ads against trump.

But surely the well-heeled donors within the Republican establishment who are scared of Trump running away with this thing will take care of him while the non-Trump candidates sort themselves out, right? Nope. And nope in large part because they’re scared that Donald Trump will call them mean names. These donors, Politicoreported earlier this week, “worry that, if they fund higher-profile attacks, they could come under attack from Trump, who this week fired a warning shot at one of the few major donors to the anti-Trump efforts, Marlene Ricketts, tweeting that her family ‘better be careful, they have a lot to hide!’ ”

The will to stop Trump does not appear to exist, and that is pathetic.

The captains of industry have been exposed as wimps:story:
 
If I ever got Trump to call me a mean name, my life would finally be complete.

I still think this is what is likely to happen, because despite his near total retention of his base supporters, his negatives among GOP voters remain high, and I don't see many of these Cruz or Rubio supporters going to Trump if their candidate drops out.

However, considering he has vastly outperformed my expectations to date, I wouldn't assign a very high confidence interval to that.

Trump is fairly clearly going to continue kicking ass until something changes.
 
This Trump support is pretty much for the same reason as Obama had in 2008.

People are fed up with the "norm".

Obama was "Hope and Change", and black. Let's be real.

Trump says what he feels and does not give a fuck.
