The billionaire also told the outlet that he plans to vote for former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley in the Texas GOP primary Tuesday as “a protest vote against Trump,” but that he would still support the current president versus the former one.

    This is like abused spouse logic…

    Why be mad at voters and not the people who keep putting up bad candidates?

    I’m not sure if you remember 08, but the party fought Obama hard and there was a big campaign for neoliberals to vote R, which they did.

    But it wasn’t enough because lots of non voters turned out and became voters. They just needed a candidate they truly believed would help them.

    And Obama was/is really good at convincing people of that.

    Biden and Hillary aren’t.

      You completely twisted what I said. Who is mad at voters? Who said I didn’t want a better candidate. All I said was don’t fall for the same trap as last time.
