Ted’s next move—UFC—MMA!

Give me some of the drugs you are taking. I voted for Cruz too in the primary but many of you are starting to lose a grip on reality. Your hate is destroying you.

Welcome to Free Republic.

Thanks Edina!

I won’t even trust him as a dog catcher!

[scottycraig]

Not only down and dirty but every trick in the book will be played

[scottycraig]

Probably yes, but he started redacting on almost everything he said. Lost my respect!

[Resettozero]

Thanks! :)

Now, please concentrate on providing more useful FR original posts OR JUST LURK HERE through the elections in November to get a better hang of the joint and the people here. It might take you a while since this is not the same as most other discussion boards.

He lost a lot of people’s respect. The big 3 was these listed below which has lots of overlap with other things from many comments I have been reading in cyberspace and conversations. These seem to be the major strikes with most GOP voters:

1) Blaming Trump for the violent protests in Chicago which were carried out by the leftist radicals. He needed to defend Trump and bash those loonies.
2) Voting for TPP.
3) Voting for the Corker Amendment which led to the passing of the Iran deal.

Asked today if he was going to run for Senate re-election in 2018, he said yes.

It’s amazing how snotty your regard is towards Trump supporters. Straight out of the media talking points. Nobody in their right mind would ever call me a worshiper or member of a personality cult. I’ll wager I’ve seen more ‘personalities” in my time than you and I’ve judged them correctly.

My principles are to defend the constitution and thus the United States of America. God, Country,Family. HONESTY is something too few people respect any more. That I have too, so I’ll not be lumped into some cookie cutter designation spouted by someone like you.

Thank you for your analysis. However, many Cruz supporters don’t worship personalities like Trump supporters. Many believe in the constitution and will vote in anyone that supports Constitutional Conservatism. Trump has redefined the RNC as a personality cult, as evidenced by your comments. If you want to base your philosopy on that, then by all means..Cruz was not important as a personality to me, but in his views on the Constitution. . I once swore an oath to defend it, so I will only vote for someone who also will defend it, period. Personality is what has gotten us into trouble. Ted Cruz (or dislike for him) is not the issue. The issue is who defines your values best. Trumpbots or Cruzites have their own agenda. My agenda is based on principles, regardless of the candidate. I no longer support the Republican Party or any other party. I only have my one vote and I will vote it the way I see fit - not due to bullying by any candidate or party.

So, it's Hillary or bust for you principled Ted supporters? That's odd.

Yes, a heartfelt welcome and a very excellent post, especially for a newbie. :)

From the article, “in his first interview after dropping out of the race, he clearly stated that he will not endorse party’s presumptive nominee, Donald Trump. He said that there is no chance that he will support Trump”

What a guy! Ted of course feels no obligation at all to stick by his word or the written statement that he signed. Real presidential material; I am sure that no one on the international stage noticed that his word means nothing.

A verrry excellent link to a website unknown to me and to an article written by a female named Evnisha Malani, one of America’s stalwarts in political insight and wisdom, maybe perhaps. OP forgot to list the author’s name; just a newbie, so fresh and...9-days new to FR.

Phooey on this thread.

[Patriot Babe]

Beside every trick is the last option and that is an attempt on Donald’s life or someone close to him as a warning to him.

I find the discussion on Free Republic far better than any discussion forum, I tried reddit but Pro Trump subreddit is just crazy, 15 posts in a minute, no discussions just crazy link posting and memes.
