How is Cruz doing in the other states ? He won’t be a factor soon ...it will be Trump vs. Rubio
It wasn’t a compliment. But then I’ve been known to invite Mormon “elders” into my home and chew on their ears until they start edging toward the door.
So oddly enough, I do admire bulldog tenacity.
You sure about that?

Kush-Im respectfully not attacking but I have to get real here... No they dont matter to me AT ALL.He was a business man with real estate interests in New York , a known dem stronghold.
If you have millions invested in New York, You are going to have to play the game and bribe them.
Fact of life.
You mouth off about conservative ideals...guess what...every two bit city worker is gonna check regulations, deny permits, deny operating licenses.
Its a a fact of life, if you have a business in a dem area...you pay bribery.
That even explains the photo with Bill and Hill as I would have done the same thing...invite them to my wedding to grab a photo to hang in the office so when the city tax collector comes in , he sees very well....Im a friend of his criminal boss.
It happens very frequent at that level.
No Im not in the least bit bothered by his donations because I understand them all too well.

I am many things, but blind is not one.

I think Cruz will be just fine on those issues. Certainly better than giving us touch back amnesty like Trump wants.
“No Im not in the least bit bothered by his donations because I understand them all too well.”
Perfect answer!

The democrats, Reid and Pelosi, would have stopped the reconciliation process dead in its tracks. The Republicans had no guts. Where was the reconciliation process to defund Obamacare in 2015?
We’re dealing with a Quisling Republican party leadership.
You want to blame Trump’s political donations in 2006 for Obamacare? That’s stretching it. Give me a break.
Yeah, why let facts get in the way? Ducking Donald says it, so it must be the gospel! /s
Yep, Trump has financed the enemies of our liberty and freedom.
But no worries, he is really a conservative now.
How do we know? Because he says so and he would never lie, would he??
See post 67
They can’t stop reconciliation.
Actually, Ryan did put repeal on the reconciliation process this year — and there was nothing the Democrats could do to stop that. The idea was to get it to 0bama’s desk to make him actively veto it, so they could use it.
Before and after the passage of 0bamacare, your boy Trump was giving money to Congressional Democrats who foisted this atrocity on us.
“It wasn’t a compliment.”
Mine wasn’t either!
Donald is DUI - intoxicated with himself. The Trupahaolics in the back seat have no idea he has left the road.
Cruz won’t be the nominee ... so we won’t have to worry it
The Republicans Who Helped Obama Ruin the Country Support Donald Trump
Let us not be naive or willfully ignorant about what is happening. Donald Trump has a far longer history of affiliation with Democrats and Democrat causes than he does conservative, populist, or Republican causes. See him and hear him for yourself in his own words. Even in the first debate of Campaign 2016, Trump supported government run, Canadian style universal healthcare. There is no difference between his position on that and Bernie Sanders’ position.
Trump has long supported abortion rights. He has called for higher taxes and gun control. He has defended Hillary Clinton and Nancy Pelosi. Donald Trump funded the Democrats against the tea party in 2012 and the establishment Republicans against the conservatives in 2014.
Now in 2016, the Republican consultant class and RINOs in Washington are lining up behind Donald Trump. They are doing so to stop the only guy who has put points on the board against them — Senator Ted Cruz. But it is not just Cruz. These Republican consultants and elected officials are lining up behind Trump over Senator Marco Rubio. In fact, the Republicans who most aggressively support expansive immigration and open borders are rallying to Trump, not Rubio.
Trump supporters are deluding themselves through blind rage and emotion. The guys in Washington know that Trump, who just last year supported universal healthcare and two years ago supported Mitch McConnell against conservatives, can be reasoned with in a way Cruz cannot.
This should be a damning indictment against Donald Trump in Campaign 2016. The very Republicans who have collaborated with Barack Obama to grow the national debt, keep immigration expansive, fund Planned Parenthood, and fund Obamacare are on Team Trump against Ted Cruz.

You’re just mad because your precious Donald is all twittered up about getting his hind parts handed to him in the first real test of his media created image of invincibility.
Ted Cruz punctured the massive balloon of Trump’s fragile ego, and now he is flying all over the twittersphere accusing and insulting and pointing fingers in every conceivable direction!
I don’t what you call Trump’s behavior in you neck of the woods, but where I live it’s called UNPRESIDENTIAL.
Rep. Peter King: Cruz ‘Helped Obamacare,’ Obama Should Give Him Campaign Donation
Trump and/or Carly Fiorina are dead in the water if they are the candidate vs Hillary.
Both of them have given hundreds of thousands to the Clinton Foundation and also praised Hillary effusively.
People would laugh at Trump and Fiorina when Hillary just plays their own words back at them.

How did Trump’s 2006 political contributions change the makeup of the democrat majorities in the Senate and House to permit Obamacare to pass?
The answer is it didn’t.
Trump’s contributions did not affect the balance in any way. The Republican leadership allowed the democrats to twist the historical order of the House without a whimper of protest. The democrats would never have allowed the Republicans to play reconciliation games if the shoe were on the other foot.
And in the end, Justice Roberts, who was supported by Bush and his attorneys, knifed us all in the back.
This kabuki of 2009-2010 irks me to this day.
