Ted Cruz campaigns in Eastern Iowa
KWWL 7 ^ | January 25, 2016 | Shirley Descorbeth

...

And before Cruz's campaign event -- he addressed the media and KWWL's Shirley Descorbeth asked him about this. "Senator...last week Governor Terry Branstad said Iowans shouldn't vote for you...you're against mandates. What's your response to this?"

Cruz said, "I'll tell you what I'm hearing from the women and men of Iowa. It's not that we need a deal maker to surrender more on our principles...its rather we want and deserve a consistent conservative."

While addressing supporters -- he was more direct. "So , I think there should be no subsidies, no mandates...no nothing. It should be a fair and level playing field."...

There are dozens of examples Limbaugh could have used where Trump demonstrated during this campaign that he does not think or approach problems in conservative terms let alone understand them, and is unable to bring them up.. But views challanges in a very personal way that could reveal any inner convictions he could have. But clearly demonstrates he does not.

From the campaign begining with the first debate. His legiitimate battles with Fox and Kelly and her misogyny complaint. Trump goes on CNN following the debate to complain about his treatment .Alas where he could have cited how the press abused Palin as well as other conservatives. Instead must personnaly attack Kelly and brings up Kellys body functions thus confirms her assertions . .

Trumps revealing exchange with campaign disrupter and un official spokesman for the Mexican government Jorge Ramos (Univision). Who has dual citizenship, Which Trump should have but did not. Does this show any conviction on his pronouuncements about Mexico and its relationship with US ?

Here Trump could have demanded to know from Ramos If he believes Mexico has legitimate territorial claim to American states ,as well as bring up Mexican treatment of illegals. Then ask why should the US permit land ownership when legal American retirees cannot own land in their own name or vote there.Then boot his buttocks out of there.

Instead what does he do ? Kisses up to him and lets him go .The way the Mexicans are treating Americans reciprocity should be the issue and would dump the quote hispanic unquote krap

Then there is the issue where some UK politicians along with Islamists wanted to prevent Donald Trump from even visiting Britan . Here he would have been saluted if he did this. Used the Brits expression to those phoneys; To Piss off and WISE UP pointing out the problems they are having rhere and chiding them for refusing to face reality.

Instead what did he do ? Threatens economic retailiation.on a project he is doing in Scotland

What really sealed it for me was when Businessman deal maker Trump who also owns Goldman Sachs stock
http://www.freerepublic.com/focua/f-news/3386879/posts
Sided with the GOPES and even advocates expanded mandated Ethanol because he thinks dumping this mandated junk inro your gas tank. It will help him carry IOWA . Which also begs the question of Just how heavily invested is he in Ethanol ?

Apparently those prefering a candidate that supports and wants more government mandates and subsides especially for a product like enthanol which is a boon doggle means nothing to them.
Well it does ro me....

And really don't offer more than criticizing the posters. Could you at least offer some substance that we can exchange views or comments on rather than having it look like it's just a hit???

Caww, JSC responds that way because it's all he's got. Kinda like when Trump attacks from the left as the conservatives who support him cringe and wonder why their favorite candidate does it but they support him anyway confident that he's just kidding them, that he's really got more -- but in fact, he'll just confirm what his own words and those of his most ardent supporters indicate: it's all he's got, and all he'll ever have.

Folks, vote for him at your own risk. You WILL be accountable for the results.

You are obviously one of those posters that tends to open his/her mouth without knowing what the hell you are talking about. If you read the thread you would know there was lots of substantive things brought-up. Please stop wasting my time.

Trump Hires YUGE numbers of HIB Employees for his companies.....

Though Trump stated in his immigration plan....."We need companies to hire from the domestic pool"....BUT hypocrite and liar that he is....

.....Trump-owned companies have applied for at least 1,100 H-1B visas for foreign workers since 2000......workers included waitresses, cooks, vineyard workers, as well as positions as assistant golf-course superintendent, assistant hotel manager and banquet manager.... most of the visa requests were granted, the visas requested are overwhelmingly used to bring in Mexican workers. That includes 250 total visas at Trump Model Management.

An example that this is most assuredly TRUE....as an example Trump’s famed Palm Beach estate called Mar-A-Lago.......Every year since at least 2008, Mar-A-Lago has requested anywhere from 70 to 90 visas to bring foreign workers into the country as cooks, waiters and housekeepers. The starting pay is between $10 and $12 an hour......“There are certainly a bunch of people that would love to work at that rate,” said Michael Watson standing outside Career Source, a job placement service that helps businesses find workers....“I’m pretty sure there are a lot of Americans out there who would work if you give them the opportunity,” added Cassandra McCorkel.

Trump has never hired an illegal. If all you have left are lies, I suggest it's time for you to re-evaluate whether it is really beneficial to you or the world that you continue to use resources at FR.

Yes, I saw that as the thread progressed and other threads as posted the same stuff.

Even so it's now everywhere that pretty much everyone understands Trumpsters don't care what Trump does or says, nor the evidence that proves he's a fraud and charlatan with fist fulls of wool he using to cover their eyes......

It's pretty astounding to see this cult of personality and it's leader on full display almost daily.....Psychologists are having a front row seat and enjoying the "study" throughout the Internet. They get to see a full fledged Narcissist manipulating and maneuvering the mobs along with their reactions....which unfortunately they cannot see Trump has contempt for his followers, it goes right over their heads while they continue to clap and hoorah the master, they can't discern he's insulting them !
