“Old men in baseball caps bearing the names of military units, moms holding babies in one hand and Ted Cruz signs in the other. Three people by the stage waving flags (from left to right: American, Israeli, Gadsden).” -Salon

Typical Salon writer, but I actually loved the above; it made me wish I was there.

Yes.

When you see the enemy in all their ugliness, you know your true ally.

Americans working in Canada doesn’t constitute being Canadian.

Who do you think should help steer the country back on track?

Gary must have had an older brother and never got enough attention as a child. What an attention whore.

I just love condescension in the morning.

Talk about holier-than-thou. This reporter’s got it in spades.

Cruz was still born in Canada.

Donald seems to be our only hope.

Three white nationalist leaders have banded together to form their own super PAC in support of Trump...

Well, obviously Trump is a neonazi white supremacist (/s). That's the logic by which Cruz has been repeatedly d@mned by his attackers when it comes to where his wife worked, where his staffers used to work, etc., not to mention Mr Beck, who supports him, so those who attack Cruz call him a 'crackpot by association'.

That does not mean, however that that super PAC isn't squirting the 'oily' theme into their stuff--although I can't say that because I haven't seen their stuff, nor would I ever put it past the Liberals who speak snark as a first language to belabor the subliminal 'greaser' meme.

It's juvenile, tedious, and arguably racist, and immediately for me means the rest of whatever the pejorative is contained in belongs in a well managed manure disposal (which is usually the sort of publication it came from).

I don’t think we are going to have to wait that long. Ears has ordered a stand down order at the border.

Cruz was still born in Canada.

And the judicial bodies of two states last week deemed him eligible in a precedent setting decision. Still beating this dead horse?

Would you please take the time to explain to me how Donald is the only hope? I really want to know.

“Odd to hear criticism about biased news outlets, considering how the Cruz campaign accepted and amplified “breaking news” from CNN, without even verifying it.”

It’s even stranger knowing how many anti-trump articles from places like Salon are gladly posted by these same people, with no complaint.

I guess lefty news sources are good or bad depending on how useful to the cause.

He’s an American and he loves his country.
He’s not ‘owned’ by anybody
He’s not a Washington insider or an establishment politician
He’s smart, extremely successful and charismatic
His remarkable children are a testament to his character and abilities

I believe him when he says he’ll put up the wall.
I believe him when he says he’ll put a stop to the Muslim invasion.
I believe him when he says he’ll remedy the illegal alien problem
I believe he can make America great again

He will keep his promises. He does not want to sully the Trump name, but to glorify it and go down in history as one of our greats
