Revision as of 16:08, December 31, 2019
, 16:08, December 31, 2019→Need top pick the winner and first runner-up
:While I think those are great choices, I would pick the [[2019 Hong Kong Extradition Protests|Hong Kong protesters]][https://www.freedomain.com/hongkong/] as the winner and President Donald Trump as the runner-up. --[[User:BernieandTrumpFan|BernieandTrumpFan]] ([[User talk:BernieandTrumpFan|talk]]) 00:44, 31 December 2019 (EST)

::I think Hawley should be the winner, and I can also support Brexit voters as #2. I think Trump should be third place.
::I still strongly oppose including Tulsi Gabbard here and other people who we know are not conservatives. These people, especially Tulsi, are clearly not conservative and oppose conservative values. In her most recent statement opposing impeachment, she littered her statement with words like "unfortunately" to describe Trump's success: [https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/476313-tulsi-gabbard-impeachment-has-greatly-increased-the-likelihood-of-trump-re] She's obviously not blatantly crazy like Bernie Sanders, but simply being ''not crazy'' should not be the bar for being included here. Our standards should be higher.
::In 2017, John McCain blocked a Defense Department appointee because of his liberal positions on abortion and gun control: [https://thehill.com/policy/defense/359627-senate-panel-stalls-nominee-who-called-assault-rifle-sales-insane] This is good, but it wouldn't have warranted his inclusion in the 2017 nominations page because of all the ways he worked against conservatives that year (ObamaCare, anti-Trump, etc.). The same is true for Gabbard, who considers herself a Left-liberal.
::I'm also disappointed that we have entries for establishment Republicans like Sean Hannity, Nikki Haley, and Candice Owens who don't have strong records and did nothing to stick out this year. Once again, our standards should be higher than this for how to be included in this article. --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 11:08, 31 December 2019 (EST)
