Look, having nuclear—my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart—you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I'm one of the smartest people anywhere in the world—it’s true!—but when you're a conservative Republican they try—oh, do they do a number—that’s why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune—you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged—but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me—it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are (nuclear is powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what's going to happen and he was right—who would have thought?), but when you look at what's going on with the four prisoners—now it used to be three, now it’s four—but when it was three and even now, I would have said it's all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don't, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years—but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us.

As of right now, the polls look like we are going to replace a narcissistic lunatic with a pitiful old man who is destined to get lost wandering the halls of the west wing.
2020 is a no-win situation for America. Just look what the Democrats are going to run against someone like Trump.

Does a Republican who primaries Trump have a snowball's chance in hell?

I don’t think so. The republican base is very pleased with Trump.

Walsh is so far ahead in ability and qualifications for leadership than Trump... but he isn't a con man and most non-analytical, emotional, easily swayed people want a con man

When I heard Joe Walsh was running for President, I immediately thought of this:

He's also said several things in the past that make me wonder about him though.

But compare that to things Trump has said... I would still prefer Kasich to challenge him, but I'd take Walsh too... heck even Weld

Kasich has no spine. I couldn't support the man.
I disagree... he stood up to Trump and the Repub establishment at the Convention in his home state back in 2016 . Took plenty of backbone to do that. The spineless lemmings Repubs who knew they should speak up against him but didn't/won't are the ones you shouldn't support

Kasich vetoed a heartbeat abortion bill after it passed overwhelmingly in his state. He can get lost for all I care.

I want someone who gets results, can't be bought. Trump has achieved very good results and is not beholden to anyone.
