Kansas, Alaska, South Carolina, Arizona, and Nevada have all canceled their Republican primaries/caucuses in order to throw their support fully behind President Donald Trump, citing the arguably unnecessary costs a primary election would entail when nearly 90% of the party approves of his presidency.


"With no legitimate primary challenger and President Trump’s record of results, the decision was made to save South Carolina taxpayers over $1.2 million and forgo an unnecessary primary," said South Carolina GOP Chairman Drew McKissick in a statement announcing his party's decision.







so are ya going to claim the RNC by cancelling unneeded primaries is rigging the process .. you know .. like giving debate questions to Clinton and using "Super delegates" to fuck Bernie?

WTF constantly stretches credulity to come up with the most ludicrous comparisons imaginable! He thinks everything on the planet is directly analogous to everything else. There is no such thing as false equivalence in his simple-minded pea brain... unless, of course, you say anything that might be construed as defending trump. Then he screams "whataboutism"!

From USA Today:

"It is not an unusual move for state parties to forego primary contests when a strong incumbent is running for re-election as president.

For example, the South Carolina and Arizona Republican parties did not hold primaries in 1984 and 2004 when Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush, respectively, were seeking re-election, according to the Associated Press.

In 2012, Democrats canceled 10 presidential preference contests, according to the New York Times.

These are decisions made entirely by state parties and there are volumes of historical precedents to support them."

Again, the above comes for USA Today. Note that the years the Republicans canceled primaries that the President/Candidate is mentioned.

In 2012, when the Democrats canceled 10 "presidential preference contests"(why can't they call them primary elections) the incumbent presidential candidate(Barack Obama) is NOT cited.
