American Jewish groups have demanded that presidential hopeful Ted Cruz clarify his position on his provocative endorsement from an evangelical leader whose views on Jews are highly controversial.

Cruz’ “religious” demeanor is creepy at best, and his wack job father is off the reservation.

This is the kind of crap that makes it VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE for Cruz to break out of only getting support from the Evangelical base.

...and that’s why I support Trump. Cruz simply CANNOT win when allowing himself to be lumped-in with clowns like him.

Maybe something he'll have to address at some point, Hitler killing Jews as an agent of G-d is a little out of the Christian mainstream, but not all that far out, it's been said before. Cruz has strong credentials on Israel, an endorsement like this won't mean much to anyone other than the National Democratic Jewish Council, who seem to be one of the few raising the issue. Won't change the opinion of anyone supporting Cruz, will be embraced by a few Democrats. Cruz's embrace of Ted Nugent's support has more potential to cause problems.

I’m Israeli. And Orthodox.

I fully admit there would be no Israel, but for Hitler. For Hitler forced us to leave for home.

And same with a dickweed in Babylon whom Ester got the better of, whose name I won’t even say.

And same with Pharaoh. We’d have happily stayed in Eqypt if Pharaoh wasn’t such a complete asshat.

Doesn’t mean any of those three are nice guys.

Quite to the contrary.

G-d uses evil assholes all the time to do His work. As prophesied, their intended curses seem to backfire.

The liberal JINOs would know this if Deformed congregations actually read the Torah.

“Trump is going to be in serious trouble if he has to explain the views of every screwy backer.”

Are you talking about Trump ‘backers’? That would be we the people. Trump isn’t bought and paid for by bail out banks and the Koch Bros, Club for Growth, the Lawyers Assn.

Trump only accepts small,personal donations, but you knew that, or should have.

Trump has a billion in cash for the general election?

I don’t think so.

If he gets the nomination, you’re going to have to change your messiah story a bit.

I never said anything about a billion dollars, you make no sense. The only messiah complexes around here are the conned cruz supporters.

So you don’t know what a general election for POTUS costs? You might want to research that a bit.

The Dem will have well north of a billion dollars. Trump might be able to scrape up $100-200 million of his own cash (doubtful), so that leaves at least $800 million for him to raise.

Are you planning on funding that with 40 million $20 donations or 10 million $80 donations? The Dem small donor base runs about 11 million people, but I’m sure Trump will do just dandy asking for money from us, well, forgive if I don’t use his exact descriptor for us. Good luck with that.

I’m fascinated by your grasp of how your campaign is going to finance itself, especially after you alienate 70% of the Republican base. People love writing checks to someone that has spent months calling them vulgarities. I personally can’t wait for the first Trump cold call.

But you’d best get busy, because Trump is funding his campaign with loans from his account, not transfers. In short, he’s expecting someone else to pay those loans off. Is that going to be you?

I am deeply concerned that
Ted Cruz is closely associated
with Kenneth Copland.

The Word-Faith cult. Placing
personal face to face audible
dialog with Jesus over the
WORD of G-d.

The Cruz family spent months
in prayer before deciding to run
Then they spent hours with his pastor
the "word" was spoken by Heidi

" Seek the face of G-d not His hand"

I discern that very different than them.

They should run as fast as one can away
from the Name it and Claim it preachers
and find a Bible-based pastor.

Thoughts ?

Kenneth Copeland concerns me, and he has for years.

Is that where they are hooked up?

Copeland will only hurt him.

Did you see the Ted Nugent thread and his anti-Jewish comments?

What do you make of that?

Seriously, I doubt they are serious about faith or they would not be so involved in globalism.

We are not going to elect Jesus. He’s not running.

These best we can do is pray for Him to help America to confound the forces of evil operating here.

.

My wife tells me that Copeland for ,
many years had an outreach to alcoholics.

Ted's father was years ago, an alcoholic.

that is most likely the connection.

In my research on Wotd-Faith cult,
one thing that stood out was:

We must prepare the world for Jesus to return.

Jesus will not return until until "we" make it happen.

That clearly is not found in the WORD.

I don’t know a whole lot about Kenneth Copeland. We don’t get too many tv channels out here in the sticks; but a few
Christian channels.
