Comments

  1. Shadow Rune: it's weird that they're holding it in Dallas when most of these candidates are from other parts of the country
  2. Shadow Corvid: convention or campaign trail looks like a tough decision for some reps out there
  3. Wraith Sable: some of these guys should be out campaigning where their voters are, not photo-op'ing with trump
  4. Theopetrov: seems like a few republicans are choosing to prioritize local issues over party loyalty
  5. Mirage Talon: I thought they were trying to capitalize on his presence? Guess some politicians have other priorities
  6. Noah: It's telling that some Republicans are choosing to focus on their own districts over what looks like a heavily staged Trump event
  7. Grim Kite: It seems kind of silly to expect these candidates to drop everything for a convention when voters back home are starting to tune in. What's the point of rallying support in one place if
  8. Fathom Mantis: skipping the Dallas rally doesn't seem like a smart political move to me, Trump's got a knack for energizing his base
  9. Noelreyesxo: I'm not surprised they're opting to focus on their home turf. We all know how much the grass (or in this case, the soil) is greener closer to home
  10. Vossnora: Sounds like some republican strategists still think a stadium full of screaming fans translates to real-world voters
