Could Gary Johnson Lead to Trump Presidency and a Civil War

[SwimExpert]

...the vote for President would go to the House of Representatives.

But not before a new Congress has been sat....

Unlikely. If anything, Johnson will pull some Republican support from Trump. If Johnson does well, Clinton will likely win easily.

The only way Hillary loses is if Trump drops out and endorses Johnson.

Hillary still wins.

If Johnson had been the republican nominee he still would have lost.

Despite all of Trumps missteps lately, Trump is right there neck and neck in FL, OH, IA and NV (Trump will take NC, GA and MO) and if Clinton carried NH, MI, PA and other blue leaning close states. HOWEVER, if Gary Johnson pulls and upset and wins NM (he is very popular there and Clinton is not), the the race is 268 Clinton, 265 Trump and Johnson 5. No candidate would have the 270 votes needed. Therefore...

If Gary Johnson Can Win His Home State He Could Be Elected President

...the vote for President would go to the House of Representatives. Now Republicans hate Trump but they will not vote for her or Johnson over Trump. Even if a few did, the GOP has a sizable enough majority to lose a few turncoats.

IF this happened the left would go nutz. We would have riots and so much descent it could spiral to a civil war or at least minor confrontation.

Could there be a coup attempt? Absolutely!

I can see how partisans would blame a situation on having CHOICES on the ballot. Fact is -- Electing EITHER of those arrogant lunatics would plunge America deeper into polarization and lawlessness from elected officials.

The people WORRIED about this are folks that feel they OWE their votes to just 2 corporate identities.

When in fact ---- What is BEST for America right now -- is to have a qualified mgt team as a "mediator" for 4 yrs. To defuse the focus on gaining and maintaining power for the Brand Name parties. There is no excuse NOT to vote for 2 qualified governors that faced hostile partisan opposition in their legislatures.

The LParty is offering a CHOICE to stop rolling towards open hostilities. Not OUR fault -- if only the partisans turn out in a slow election and refuse to take the higher road. The "independents" and the "disenfranchised homeless" voters are BIGGER than either of your gangs. And if THEY turn out -- It just MIGHT poop the party.

Anyways --- Figure that the winner has to have 20 or MORE advantage over the power whore that leads. Because I'm betting on Johnson/Weld getting 20 or MORE electoral votes. From Utah, Montana, Colorado, New Mexico, ---- maybe even N,. Hampshire or Nevada.

LOL!!!

Johnson is a decent guy with a good record as governor. Johnson doesn't have dirt, he isn't "racist," and he has a documented track record of controlling spending and creating jobs.

Hillary would lose huge if the race was with her vs. any decent qualified American.

Hillary is a monster, a narcissistic kleptocratic liar and crook and just about everyone in the US knows it. Half of her current support is just anti-Trump

Johnson wouldn't have ever been the Republican nominee. This was the Republicans election to lose and, due to their continuing implosion/civil war, they lost it to one of the most distrusted candidates in our lifetime.

If the Republicans want to win any election, including keeping Congress, they need to pull their collective heads out of their asses pronto.

Gary Johnson could climb higher than Hillary and Trump if he gets in debates and does well.. major game changer

Potential doesn't equal results. Unfortunately, Johnson is polling at less than 10% in the majority of polls.

Worse than a Clinton presidency

Haven't started buying Ad time. But the Ads are very good and upbeat and focused on stopping the insanity that we are mired in..

I've been pushing an alternative if we ARE NOT allowed in the debates. Which is to draft Bernie into a debate. Bet that would poll as high as the 2nd ClinTrump debate.

If we get 5% in most states -- it will be a boost. Because we will qualify for ballots WITHOUT exhausting the volunteers and wasting 10s of Mill on petitions and court cases next time around.

By 2020 --- most all things will be MUCH worse if Johnson/Weld is not the choice. And the partisan war will start going hot.

I believe that the House could vote for whomever they wanted for President.

What do you think of President Paul Ryan?

 

[Syriusly]

the House may choose "none of the above" and go with someone else.

Nope, the House must choose from the top three electoral vote candidates. 12th Amendment.

Thanks I didn't know that.

This election will be a landslide for Clinton.

You may very well be correct....... and off topic.

The topic is the question of whether Johnson could throw the race to the House .. but unknown to people who know nothing about politics .. this race isn't even close .. with Clinton leading even in red states.

Johnson will not be a factor in the outcome.

If you are unable to participate in intelligent conversation, please go outside and shoot baskets.

P.S. Nobody cares about your political predictions.

Maybe you think I came here to talk to your dumb ass.

Wrong.

If you don't like my posts scary man .. then ignore them.

Simple.

You wouldn't know intelligent conversation if you tripped over it.

LOL, you and Jillian make quite a pair.

Hot? Nutjobs will take shots, but I doubt we'll have open civil war in the streets.

No matter who wins the divisions in this country are too great to expect the nation to hold together. Whether we have civil war in the streets will depend on whether you think that Milwaukee, Ferguson and Baltimore are included in the definition of blood in the streets. How about times 10?

What you will see is a loss of general civility. The streets will have the same level of civility as the Internet. The uprisings of Milwaukee will be more common and involve many more ethnic splinters.

A civil war would be better, cleaner, what we are brewing could go on for more than 100 years.

Even if it's 10 times, it'll still be lame compared to the 1960s. Today's kids are wimps.

It doesn't matter what you think of Hillary Clinton. Not at all. You're just whining as losers do.

Johnson seems a nice enough guy .. but he's a Libertarian .. and once he starts talking about privatizing Social Security, cutting Medicare by 43%, eliminating student loans, and abolishing the Department of Education and HUD .. his ride to the top will be short.

Once he starts talking about open borders, RWers like you will be looking for another candidate
