    I now want to be in one of the "citizens ask a question" segments during debates so I can ask the candidates what starter they plan on picking in Gen VII.

    this almost certainly will not change anybody's mind about voting for Trump, but still

    Welcome To Leith showed up in my Netflix documentaries today. I was not prepared for how similar the rhetoric of white supremacists is to extremist militia members, specifically two men to which I am related.

    Anyone got a spare hug lying around? I could use one.

    Cruz deciding to jump back in the race would be hilarious.

    Why would Cruz re-enter? What is there to gain?

    My guess, he dropped out because he thought that a Trump-Cruz-Kasich brokered convention would go to Kasich. Then Kasich dropped out and now things might look good for Cruz in a Trump-Cruz brokered convention. But I doubt he's that dumb.

    Bragging rights that he opposed whatever Trump can/will do *if* elected to the White House? Honestly, my guess is that he's trying to reclaim whatever political capital he can while he can because he's burned every last bridge in his party with this mad scramble to the presidency. Holding on to his junior US senator seat in Texas is probably the best he can hope for since he's actually not a US citizen, but an illegal alien from the Planet Moltar in the Ziptron Galaxy.

    a mode of thinking is that he did it to get Kasich out of the race, which makes his delegate math somewhat plausible, especially with Trump taking his eye off the ball during his victory lap

    That's backstabby enough to be almost plausible

    i dont think it will succeed at all, but considering this is probably the end of Cruz's career if he doesn't get nominated, why not give it a shot!

    dropping out and then rejoining the race really would be a "i could not have seen this coming" moment in an election of many opportunities to say that

    I'm enjoying the fact that trump currently has only 70% of the vote in an election where he's the only candidate still running

    It's incredibly foolish to do this then let Trump take two states unopposed. If there was any truth to it then he should have jumped back in last week or something.

    Then I will live in the woods like Thoreau and write my musings upon the nature of simple living, only twice as long: four years, four months and four days.

    Suck it, Thoreau.

    It's a common misconception that Thoreau stayed on his own accord. Truth was that he was walled in.
