    Again, I said the same about Trump. I absolutely wasn't going to vote for him. I was for Kasich. When it came down to Trump vs. Hillary, the choice then became easy.

    Mark Cuban is another that could throw his hat in the ring as an independent.

    Plus, you're the one who called him a highbrow wannabe political. It seems to imply you know something about him that excludes him from being someone you could support.

    I called him highbrow when I saw the GIF. You can see for yourself.

    A better joke would've been "Great, another socialist the democrats are running"

    (because it's the "peoples eyebrow")

    Except that you voted for Trump twice.....Hillary ran once against him...which Trump lie made you a believer ? Kasich hates Trump and has worked hard against Trump's agenda....so in essence....your original faith in a candidate didn't hold water...you cheer for a fascist for that many years, you eat the crow.

    Almost laughable how much Trump occupies of some of y'all's brain space . This is a thread on The Rock if you hadn't noticed.

    no.I sure didn't bring up Kasich....I know who did though...this is about a celebrity running for office...it's going to include Trump and probably Reagan references but you can pretend to be objective all you like....the Rock isn't qualified to lead the country and Trump definitely wasn't....I'd say if you really want to focus on figures in your own head....think about Joe Biden and how many posts you've used him for recently.......yeah....sucks not having a safe space for political discussions eh? Now back to why people make poor choices..........

    notice the post before......you want to converse......the Kasich over Hillary post of yours should have been fuel enough.....I just debunked it because fact is...you were not objective in that election or the last one....worth pointing out in any presidential discussion here....vote for a traitor once...maybe a mistake in judgement...twice....someone has been drinking the purple koolaid

    The context was me dismissing Johnson early. julius wanted to really get into that and attempt to hold me to the fire - somehow, comparing Johnson to Trump et al. Go back and look at the responses. I think they're pretty clear cut in that regard.

    Voting for Trump the 2nd term is an entirely different context. Yet, here we go again.

    Context....why you voted against Hillary.....that's really about the Rock eh? Hillary got into more people's heads in the OT section here than Trump ever could.for about a solid decade..and she didn't even win an election...go figure....

    no I didn't "really want to get into" it. I just had asked why you didn't like him as a candidate (I don't think that he's seriously considering it, but since i don't know anything about his beliefs, etc, Im not going to say one way or the other). You responded with your typical "I don't know, you tell me" bullshit.

    Then you pointed out he has an eyebrow.
