    Think about it. Lincoln ... TRUMP?

    Dems considered Lincoln an extremist back in 1860. So much so that it inspired a third-party ticket called Constitutional Union, which performed well in the border states.

    For a group of people who constantly states their conviction that TRE45ON will gain a second term, you all sure do a lot of screaming about it. Methinks maybe you're not as assured as you let on.

    If you don't want to discuss politics, then don't come to a political forum. There is a caucus going on right now, believe it or not.

    I don't think declaring victory before the thing has even started is the same as "discussing politics" -- but knock yourself out. Just remember what happened the last time when a particular side declared that they would win if the other side got ___ as its nominee.

    Most of these people have a main interest in working and providing for their family's; but threaten that and they will turn out in numbers that are overwhelming.

    Running against either Bernie or Bloomers is colloquially known as #WINNING

    I take your caution seriously. Bernie has the ability to turn out the vote that others do not.
    That dangerous for Trump
