    Republicans to scrap primaries and caucuses as Trump challengers cry foul
    The moves, which critics called undemocratic, are the latest illustration of the president's total takeover of the GOP apparatus.

    Four states are poised to cancel their 2020 GOP presidential primaries and caucuses, a move that would cut off oxygen to Donald Trump’s long-shot primary challengers.

    Republican parties in South Carolina, Nevada, Arizona and Kansas are expected to finalize the cancellations in meetings this weekend, according to three GOP officials who are familiar with the plans.

    The moves are the latest illustration of Trump’s takeover of the entire Republican Party apparatus. They underscore the extent to which his allies are determined to snuff out any potential nuisance en route to his renomination — or even to deny Republican critics a platform to embarrass him.

  2. They make that sound like it's a bad thing.

    Its not like they have a chance of winning. All they would do is provide ammunition for the Democrats (as if they needed more).

    I suppose they could just have the primaries and ignore the popular side of it and just crown the chosen one like what was done to Hillary.

    we know you support monarchies, there's no debating that.
     
  5. No, I support accepting the results of a lawful election, and not trying to use the state intel apparatus to carry out a coup if I am not happy with the way things are going.

    That is to say, I am not a democrat.
