(34,107 posts)back in the 90's I think. I remember very little about it except for being really angry. The primaries are the only time we can actually vote for who we want unless that is the person that wins. Talk about taking choice away.
It also makes Trump look really weak I think.
EDIT I forgot to add that Kansas R's are also doing this.

(25,242 posts)that's why the GOP is cancelling primaries around the country. Trump needs to get whiff of the fact that his own Party perceives him as 'weak'. I don't think Trump can handle the fact that he is perceived as weak. Maybe some of these States would be forced to reconsider cancelling.

(24,412 posts)but it's internal GOP politics that I don't particularly care much about and most of the challengers are people only slightly better than Trump. However, it does very clearly send the message that they realize that Trump could be vulnerable to the right challenger/right message. If Trump were in a stronger position, NOBODY would be thinking to challenge him. Nobody dared AFAIK to challenge GWB in 2004, given his strong standing at that time.
