...

Saying that he does't trust businessman Donald Trump ideologically, Viguerie added: "Cruz is the best candidate I've seen since Ronald Reagan and in many ways he's more ideologically consistent than Reagan." His feeling is that with the establishment currently divided across several candidates, Cruz can to rally not just conservatives, but the entire GOP. Viguerie said the GOP hasn't been fully united since 1988 and "only Cruz has potential to unite the party." ...

Trump already HAS united people. What’s his percentage at today? That’s how many people are united behind him. Much more than are united behind anyone else.

.....Will Ted Cruz BUILD A WALL? I doubt it!
Cruz actually RAN on fence and wall and no amnesty for illegals and won 40% of the hispanic vote in 2011 senate run.
Of course, you probably still believe DT who said in December that “Cruz stole my wall idea”. Yeah right.
And you really believe DT will disappoint all his friends on the left he can work with, Schumer,Pelosi and the rest? Did you miss that part of his embracing the establishment? Look at who DT does Alinsky on -— always on the right NEVER on the left.
And you believe him because he said so?

“In other words, you still like to hear the smarmy mouth language that spews from the mouth of professional politicians”

Didn’t say that. But i would rather my daughter be able to listen to a presidential candidate’s speeches without him calling someone a pussy or telling people to go f*ck themselves. Or calling someone a pathological rapist.

Gee, just a few days ago Trump supporters were spreading a video where they tried to equate Cruz’s support for using eminent domain to BUILD A BORDER WALL with Trump’s use of eminent domain to steal an old lady’s house.

Seems to me that Trump supporters have already provided us the evidence that Cruz wants to build a wall!

The slimy off-putting thing is a meme that Trump, the establishment, and the MSM are putting out there because they are all terrified of Ted Cruz.

But if you want to talk about raw numbers, Donald Trump has the highest negatives of any presidential candidate in the history of polling for negatives (60%!).

And the RCP average has Trump losing to both Hitlery and Sanders right out of the box!

“Trump already HAS united people. What’s his percentage at today?”

30 something percent of the Republican support isn’t “uniting” anyone. maybe more than the others at this point, but it’s still not uniting anyone.

I don’t see any unity among Republicans. Trump supporters hate Ted Cruz and will never vote for him.

I'm a Trump supporter who would vote for Cruz if he won. I don't see myself as being alone among Trump supporters here.

Now, try polling Cruz supporters and see how many would vote for Trump in the general.

I learned long ago conservative Republicans do not think or walk in lock step, like the democrats. Conservative Republicans are like herding cats. We all have our own thoughts of how to fix things. This election I hope we ban together behind the nominee, whoever he is and WIN, this time. We’ve had too many cross over democrats into the republican party and too many weak kneed republican elected.
We need someone strong to put America back on America’s track of individualism, strong faith in the Almighty, and get back to work. I’ve not yet lost faith in Americans.

"it will take a strong man to bring them together"

You do realize that "strongman" is just another word for dictator, right? Might want to avoid that phrase when pushing a "nationalist" candidate...
