I started out favoring Curz, and not caring much for Trump. Ted's actions, and the actions of his campaign people have changed my mind. After researching the Globalism aspect, I realised that despite all the things I don't care for about Trump, he is the only logical choice. I don't trust him, but I believe we will be better off with him than any of the others.
Cruz is worse than OBAma
Too much Jonah to be a good opus. Libby set a high bar.
I anticipated the bullshit you’re spewing.
His actions aren’t helping but they don’t care. This whole thing is like the Wizard of OZ...Cruz has convinced so many Conservatives he is the “great and wonderful Oz” when really (and many of us see this) he is just a small little man behind the curtain.
He cares about his power, his ego, his legacy...not America.
This whole thread is...just well unfortunate...and a sign maybe of FR’s death.
I don’t like to say it...but we have fellow conservatives...saying the cruelest things to one another....
Not at all. We are just having sunshine shined on politics. Some folks can’t deal with the truth that we’ve been manipulated and lied to for years by “conservative” career politicians like Ted Cruz and their paid for chattering classes. And we have Donald J. Trump to thank for that.
Years of betrayal by the Republican Party have come home to roost with their Base. Cruz simply was unable to convince enough Voters that he would be the best choice for them to try and make things right.
His failure isn't the fault of an On line Conservative Political Forum.
As far as Jim's mandate, it isn't to support Trump. It is to support the Presumptive Republican Nominee, who just happens to be Trump.
If Cruz was in the same position Trump is today and vice versa, Jim would be pushing support for Cruz in the General.
Yes, it's frustrating, but you play with the Team you have. I think Trump is what a Democrat was 60 Years ago. Believe it or not, Democrats used to love America as founded. It's obvious they don't now and haven't for a Generation. The Country has “evolved” and that is probably the best the Country can do with the major Demographic changes we face. Do I wish it weren't so, absolutely. If anything, I'm a Realist but I'm not a quitter. If handing an Electoral Victory to the Queen of Benghazi without a fight works for you, so be it. That being said, whatever Trump may or may not be, he believes in America and he loves this Country. Why would he put himself through all this crap when he already has the World by the tail? I sure as hell wouldn't if I were him.
> Wouldn’t you vote for Cruz if he wins the nomination?
Easy, it can’t happen at this point, without shenanigans.
Cruz is over.
> It make us at FR look like fools.
It’s politics, not bean bag.
Speak for yourself.
At the bottom is a link to lots more insults by prominent people directed at Trump. I do not think Cruz as been treated nearly as badly as Trump has.
The thing is, Neil and I used to be VERY good friends, way back when. Frankly, I have the scintilla of an idea WHY he just OPUSED....NONE! At one time, long ago, I believed that I knew him. Heck, I even knew him off FR. So this threads leaves me shocked, to say the least.
This the first post, of his, that I have seen in many years, so perhaps he has changed. *shrugs*
People just get too emotionally invested in their candidates. I make my decisions based on detached analysis (was for Cruz at the beginning, but gradually moved to Trump). I guess some people can’t check their emotions at the door when it comes to choosing a candidate.
GOOD of P-Marlowe to facilitate the banned to another site and to keep track of the zotted.
/s
We are all...going to be very disappointed.
We have fought the battle from here for a long time, Neil. Sorry to see you leave.
I had his name in my post.
Don’t know what happened.
Continue insulting us with 24/7 anti-Trump diatribes and insults, your opus will be assumed.”

That’s really too bad. You’ve been here so long- much longer than I have.
If he gets zotted it won’t be because of his voting preference.
You're just one of those "Loyalists" who will never get it. Socially speaking, you can resettle to the internet equivalent of Nova Scotia until your delusion lifts, I guess.
You're "#NeverTrump". You're the kind that gives Ted Cruz supporters around here a bad name.
Got it.
You'll pardon us if we refuse to embrace or show any regard for your obsession with Trump-hatred. Your conception of Donald Trump simply defies the rational.
You might as well be working for the Hillary campaign at this point if you think there's any better candidate to defeat Hillary than Donald Trump, because what you want to do is field an inferior candidate such as Ted Cruz, splinter the party, destroy voter enthusiasm, cause countless Trump voters to stay home, and therefore guarantee a Hillary victory.
Thus, you're functioning as nothing more than a propaganda mouthpiece for the Establishment/GOPe/failed Cruz campaign.
Nobody needs to be subjected to such hysterical garbage at this point.
Vote Trump or you're voting for Hillary...
