How do you know Crow's motivation? What basis do you have not to take him at his word in his public statement? |
Also Harlan Crow, while a dirtbag willing to buy himself a corrupt SCJ, is not the only billionaire. Wonder why that PP only named him while ignoring all the dark money flowing into No Labels’ Republican coffers. |
The talking points have been distributed to the paid GOP trolls. |
He does not seem stupid enough to think a third party candidate could win. |
No one thought that Donald Trump could win either but he did once. Trump was covered on the entertainment pages well into the 2016 campaign by a respected news organization. Why exactly do you think it is impossible for No Labels to win? Especially since other posters are convinced that they have hundreds of millions in the bank, which would help getting on the ballot and in communications, etc. |
Why dot you explain where these electoral college votes are going to materialize? Let's see that list. |
Yes, of course this is possible. The fact that No labels has no candidate in the race at this point makes all of this conversation completely speculative. If No Labels put forth a well known candidate that has appeal to both moderate R & D voters, they'd have a chance to build momentum quickly but time is running out for that if it hasn't already. The bottom line- a majority of both R and D voters would like an alternative to Trump and Biden more so than in any election in modern history so the opportunity for a successful 3rd party candidate is in place more so than ever before. Without an announced candidate in place, we can only speculate on the intent of No Labels donors and whether or not their potential candidate would pull more votes from Trump or Biden. |
it is really not difficult to figure this out. Trump has a snowball's chance in hell without shenanigans so shenanigans is what we will get. No labels will intend to pull votes from Biden. |
Majority? Uh no. Certainly many, but not a majority, not even close. |
I wish Trump had a snowballs chance in hell but polling data strongly suggests otherwise and we're in 2016 pre-election lala land if seriously thinking that is the case. No way to know how a strong 3rd party candidate would influence the race until there actually is a strong 3rd party candidate. As of now with the presumed choice being Trump or Biden, it's a toss up. |
Totally disagree. They one hundred percent will choose the candidate they think will best influence the race for trump. They have zero intention of trying to win anything other than trump in the white house. |
What is your evidence? |
You are missing the point. At this time during the 2016 cycle, (Oct. 2015), no one thought that Trump had a snowball's chance yet he won comfortably. Pollster Kellyann Conway was mocked even a week or so before the election when she explained Trump's numerous paths to victory. It is possible to change the electoral map. |
Trump won the nomination of an actual existing national political party that is full of people who will vote for the Republican nominee no matter what. No Labels has no party, no organization, and no candidate. It doesn’t even have a clear path to get on the ballot in every state. |
History. Nader, Nader, Sanders/Stein. And I guess if you want to get real in the weeds, Perot. Without Perot Clinton wouldn’t have won. I can’t tell if you faux hopeful people are really this dumb or if you’re just Republicans fully committed to getting a fascist dictatorship installed. Just kidding. You’re obviously Republicans. |
