I will complain and you seemed to miss the part about Stone threatening to give out delegate room numbers in Cleveland. This is disgusting.

Where is Trump on this? Silent is where. I guess that goes with him paying the legal fees for beating up people at his speeches.

I think it is meaningful anytime someone threatens violence on someone else who has a different view point dont you?

And why do I see Trump supporters keep posting the names over and over? Because they want violence to others. Dont try and deflect the issue. The issue is that people who are close to Trump or support trump are trying to bully there opponents.

I dont care if they feel threatened Trump as a leader should put a stop to this early before it gets out of hand. But all we here is how he was cheated which adds to the fire. Donald wasnt cheated so he must be trying to incite violence is the way I see it.

well he’s said many times “ I will never let you down” or some thing to that effect.

He says some other things often that I wonder if he has a different meaning than what people tend to think.

if he dives and loses to Hillary a huge part of USA will feel even worse than when obama did what he did with mccain and got in.

will be interesting to see what comes. Thankfully God is still on His throne.

I completely agree. Cruz has sold out to the GOPe. He in effect has sold his soul to the Devil. And, when he thinks he has achieved the magic contested convention that will hand him the nomination, he will be surprised. The denial of the nomination will be his pound of flesh. It will also hand the Presidency to the Democrats—all because of a vain ego trip given false hope played by the GOPe who does not want Cruz either.

You don’t see the tactics of deflection? Here, I will explain it to you:

One method of opposition is to merely deflect the other person’s attacks back to them, over and over. You become like a mirror. So the more the other person tries to attack you, the more they weaken themselves. People can’t punch themselves in the face for too long.

For a good look at opposition tactics go here:

For more, just Google opposition tactics.

read #18 it says #Never Trump is planning to target Cleveland delegates/rooms and such. I haven’t read up on it in full. Sorry.

sure it’s meaningful when some one is threatened - but I can’t live in their head and choose for them -(the aggressor nor the intended victim who sometimes encourages the attack)

Why don’t you contact trump if you’re so concerned? from what you say, that would be the biggest thing you could do to help remedy the issue since you think he needs to say or do some thing more about it.

I find on FR and few other places - folks do share many things I don’t think they should. again, I can’t make people stop, I can only post and let it go and trust God is still working - He never sleeps no slumbers the bible says. But I’m heading to sleep now because I’m only human. gnite.

At least actual American patriots are voting as opposed to politicians in Wyoming and Colorado.

Why doesn’t Donnie debate Cruz one-on-one and finish him off?

They can debate the issues and Donnie can prove how Ted has sold out to the GOPe.

Christie is not making prophetic or spiritual claims about Trump

Cruz has stood on stage with Beck and been perfectly ok with the claims

I remember well what happened in Chicago in 1968

Communists like Bill Ayers and useful idiots filled the streets and rioted. Dales police responded. The outside agitators managed to get some of the violence onto the floor of he convention.

You are out of your ever loving mind when you suggest any of us want that.

Seems to me that the GOPe would be the only ones who benefit from that

Very true. I heard him on Hannity yesterday. He was asked something about the convention and responded more or less that “Donald” is a bully. And oh is that ever so grating. What will you do if x? Response: Donald is bad. Donald is mean. Donald is violent. Donald Donald Donald. And all in that fake preachy sing song voice.

There are 858 still available delegates
Trump needs 482 delegates or roughly 56%
Cruz needs 692 delegates were 80% of the delegates remaining

Cruz is having his ground game dis-assembled by Trump.

Cruz’s ground game could stand only if unopposed and now Trump operatives are dong a conversion initiative that is working with many delegates Cruz thought he “had.”!

Go The Donald!

Trump has no former record as a politician, his previous statements were as a businessman. And you state then as if they were positions when in fact they were to cultivate business contacts.

Now that Trump is running for office he has the later list as a political position.

So you cannot tell the difference between business endeavor and political endeavor? (I suppose Cruz does collect only the unintelligent). This truly indicates Trump is a man of consummate skill in business, not a flip flopping politician, because he never was a politician in the past. But you can’t figure that out?

Your post is typical Cruz sleaze and lies, and the People are now becoming wise to the ways of Teddy Cruz and his supporters, the biggest sleaze conglomerate to come down the pike in a long while.

Yes Cruz is a horrid sleaze:

Cruz’s campaign lied about Carson to win Iowa.
Cruz supporters have tried to fraudulently remove geriatric Phyllis Schlafly and seize the Eagle Forums bank accounts. The Cruz campaign purchased a nude photo of Trump’s wife from GQ magazine and gave it to Carly Fiorina’s PAC ( Make America Awesome, MAA)for publication in political ads, and the list goes on.

You cannot hide Cruz sleaze by claiming that Trump used to have political positions when he was a businessman.

‘They are going to hand the GOPe back control of the party ...’

Confirmed: Cruz is a cats paw of the RNC.

BREAKING: Colorado Republicans Passed Around “Resolution to Deny Trump Delegates” Back on March 22

‘... and The Colorado Republican Party asks its delegates to national convention to pledge on their honor to do everything in their power to help secure the presidential nomination for someone other than Donald Trump.’

Which of them has had to meet a payroll ... In fact, hundreds of payrolls?

Which of them has hired illegals...in fact, hundreds?

Which of them has been subject to dealing with incredibly onerous government regulations, at all levels, for decades?

Which of them has been dealing in payoffs to politicians of all stripes? Which of them had the Clinton's as guest at their wedding? Which of them has been paying off union thugs and mob bosses, at all levels, for decades?

THAT’S what matters.

What should matter is integrity which is in very limited supply in todays politics.

Cruz is completely sold out to the GOPe.

And you're completely sold out to Trump so where do you get off criticizing others?

Cruz is wrong. He should stand down, and work something out with Donald Trump. We would all win, in that case.

You should stand down, noobie. We would all get a break if you Trumpets would dial it down a bit.

Cruz is a 24 carat sleaze, a (gag) Harvard lawyer, guilty of tactics he
assigns to Donald. The muddy history of the Canuck's ill-fated sojurn
in US politics includes:

<><> his stolen Iowa win at Ben Carson's expense;

<><> manipulating voters, claiming Carson quit, so Cruz could steal black votes;

<><> shaming Iowans w/ mailing of voting ratings;

<><> stupidly did not know details of his Canadian birth;

<><> Texas officials investigating him for getting into the US Senate illegally;

<><> not a Natural Born Citizen;

<><> not eligible for office of Prez or VP.

<><> claimed his health insurance was cancelled; media reported it wasn't;

<><> didn/t tell Texas voters and the FEC about Wall Street bank loans;

<><> Dallas Morning News exposed his citizenship problem.

<><>Mrs Cruz is on hiatus from G/S.....no word WRT getting paid by the Cruz campaign.

<><> Cruz thugs hitting on elderly Phyllis Schlafly.
