grayhair Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 John Kasich, Jeb Bush, and Lindsey Graham are no-shows at the GOP convention in Ohio. These three turkeys each signed the pledge to support the GOP nominee. The primaries didn't go their way and now, to show their disdain for the will of we the people, they just stayed home. Maybe this kind of chickenshit behavior, not honoring your word, is part of the reason they didn't get enough votes in the primary. The voting public is wising up. That's how I see it. What say you? 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/46102-gop-convention-no-shows/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underdog Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Kasich gets a double thumbs down as the governor of the host state. First time in history a governor did not attend his party's convention. He's done a good job as governor of OH, but now playing politics and sour grapes.

grayhair Posted July 19, 2016 Author Share Posted July 19, 2016 Yes it is. And the show moves on without them. I'm pretty sure they're not missed at all.

Popular Post david wild Posted July 19, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted July 19, 2016 In my book you are either with us or your not, I guess they are not and they believe in the same old corrupt style of Government we have, they won't be missed. Jeb and his brother needed to put on their big girls skirts and done the right thing. I supported George W, not any more. 4 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/46102-gop-convention-no-shows/#findComment-339705 Share on other sites More sharing options...

RowdyRebel Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 If you run for the nomination to be the party's nominee for POTUS and don't get the nomination, and you choose not to attend the convention in support of the party's nominee, you ought to be ineligible to run for office again at ANY level (right down to county dog catcher) as a representative of the party. Essentially by not supporting your own party's nominee, you are implying that you'd prefer the other party's candidate...and if that's the case, don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out. 1 Quote When approaching a 4-way stop, the vehicle with the biggest tires has the right of way!

Hypocrites. Didn't they make a big stink about Trump saying up front he wasn't sure if he'd back the gop candidate if he wasn't nominated? At least he was honest about it. 1 Quote The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by the people who vote for a living.The government can only "give" someone what they first take from another.

Underdog Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Also got this sticker in my goodie bag from the show. I have no use for it, thought I should pass it on to Yardo since he is so proud to own one. The logo is off a bit, should read " demand drips" Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/46102-gop-convention-no-shows/#findComment-340225 Share on other sites More sharing options...
m16ty Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Cruz should have stayed home. With all the bad blood that happened during the primary, he apparently is still sore about it. He would have been much better off to just have stayed home instead of asking for a speaking position and then not endorse Trump.
