Are you going to keep being snarky about Trump? Or are you going to get behind someone who is as imperfect as the rest of us but seems to be on the correct side of 90% or more of the issues that are important most of us here?

I think we've established that you were the one who initiated the snark. So I'll ask you, are you going to continue to trash Cruz or are you going to stop with that and try and unite us to beat Hillary?

My position on Trump is that he could go either way on numerous issues, so I want to hold Trump's feet to the conservative fire and I want to beat Hillary with as conservative a Trump as I can get.

Here is what I said in my initial post responding to a very nasty post from one of your fellow Cruz supporters about Trump,

“In January 2016 after he was already running for president Ted Cruz said that he would not have “jackbooted thugs” running people out of the country, implying that Trump would be using Nazi tactics to get rid of illegal immigrants. Then a month later he said that he was stronger on getting rid of illegal immigrants despite his recent comments and recent actions in the Senate. People have had enough of this kind of doublespeak.”

If that accurate statement is being “snarky” toward Cruz then so be it.

Then you responded to me with your nasty remark... And then you claim that I started it. I eventually made a conciliatory gesture to you because I didn’t realize that I had responded to a different nasty Cruz person than the one who I had addressed my initial remark to.

You have continued the nasty, misleading, condescending pattern that everyone around here has come to expect from Cruz supporters. And then you all wonder why Cruz didn’t prevail in this contest? We want you on board, but how long are we going to have to put up with the snarky remarks from the losing team?

You did start it with the sarcasm. You even used the sarcasm tag. I responded to your sarcasm with sarcasm of my own. And that's supposed to make me a 'nasty" person and you not?

LOL.

A "different nasty Cruz person"? There's your problem right there. I did nothing to you, yet you call me nasty.

And you consider that "conciliatory".

I don't even know what you are talking about at this point. I assume you are confused. You have used so much Cruz style doublespeak that you can't even make sense of it yourself. What are we even arguing about?

Understood, but I don't want my vote taken for granted.

Good point!

You're response is utter nonsense. I think you're being dishonest.

Have a good night.

I’m voting for Trump because he might appoint pro-life judges,

That is one of the most pathetic lines I've ever seen on FR.

I apologize for offending you or hurting your feelings. I do get carried away sometimes. But I haven’t been able to decipher anything intelligible through your stream of insults and condescension. I am just a poor old Trump supporter; it would be helpful to me if you could just say what you wanted to say without the condescension. Why don’t you try to summarize what you were trying to communicate during our “conversation”. Wouldn’t it be something if we actually found a little common ground?

I appreciate your last post.

Okay, let's find common ground. How's this? I hope Trump beats Hillary. :)

How's that?

Regards.

Sounds good! I will tell you also that Cruz is the candidate who did the best job of articulating what I believe in. So I would bet that the two of us agree on basically everything. So I am actually sorry to have gotten off on the wrong foot with you today.

"Might" meaning that I take him at his word that his conversion is genuine and that he'll try to appoint pro-life judges. However, many judges appointed by Republicans have been big disappointments.

True and the innocent blood of legions of unborn American children and my own descendants can't afford for me to ever take another chance.

I think Trump is the best chance we have to get pro-life judges.

So who are you going to vote for? If you vote for Trump and he keeps his word (which he says he will be providing a list of possible Supreme Court judges), Roe vs. Wade could be overturned (if there are enough vacancies on the court). If you don’t vote for Trump, that’s one less vote in Hillary’s way, and that’s the end of the Supreme Court. There is no hope for the unborn then for many, many years...if ever.

There literally is no other chance. We are down to Trump or Hillary (technically Bernie is still in there too).

God is always the hope and and avenger of the unborn.

Jeremiah 7:5-7

5 For if ye throughly amend your ways and your doings; if ye throughly execute judgment between a man and his neighbour;
6 If ye oppress not the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, and shed not innocent blood in this place, neither walk after other gods to your hurt:
7 Then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, for ever and ever.

God isn’t going to overturn Roe vs. Wade. God has allowed abortion to continue, just like he allowed slavery, the Holocaust, etc. He leaves it up to the people with free will to end these things.
