"When it comes to Donald Trump, I like Donald Trump. I think he's terrific. I think he's brash. I think he speaks the truth," Cruz said Tuesday morning on Fox & Friends.

If her posted that on Free Republic, he'd be attacked.

Which is weird, but characteristic of FR in election season. Trump, through his brash attitude, is bringing up issues Political Correctness wants to keep hidden. He's a flamethrower and boy, do we need one now.

But the malcontents and trolls are out in force. On a thread last night about Trump's views on immigration, we had several posters chiming in, "Yeah, but what about gay marriage, huh??? What about he used to be a Democrat??? What about his personal life???"

Trump is not going to be the nominee. And he probably knows that. But he is incredibly useful in getting people to at least talk plainly about the issues. That's what he's there for. And there are plenty of people, particularly on the left, who fear Trump for that reason. They would rather take over the country nice and quiet-like.

No, he wouldn’t. It’s one thing for school girl crushes to be exposed by more knowledgeable posters on a forum...it’s quite another for the candidates to talk about each other. This is the Newt Gingrich “any of the 8 of us on this stage would be far better” meme - which is the right meme.
