Let’s help get Trump elected first, rather than “push him to the right” and end up with President Hillary Clinton.

Or is that what “true conservatives “ led by Cruz want????

He was a citizen of the US since the day he was born.

And we have a lot of dead American soldiers in the Middle East that the ‘fool self-righteous’ conservatives forget.

Elections have consequences.

If you understand the severity of the consequences (as they clearly did by 2012);

abstaining from voting becomes a sin of omission.

This is true.

Think of just the illegals that have come here since Jan, 2013.

And the ‘Syrians.’

So you want Trump regardless of his positions?

Scary.

“He was a citizen of the US since the day he was born.”

Then why has “Ted” (not his real name) Cruz put a seal on his records?

For what good reason?

Reasonable point, but just blocking Hillary from the White House isn’t enough to turn this republic around. It will take a firm resolve to fight the Marxists who control DC. And the right policies.

Excellent news- by whose standards?

GoldmanSachs? GlennBeck? MittRomney? CheapLaborExpress? GOPe?

Ted and Heidi are clearly in bed with all of the above!

Cruz has not supported Trump or moved towards party unity. He is an opposer.

He is a deceitful disrupter hellbent on making himself the center of attention.

SoreCruzerman needs to run for an office for which he is qualified: PM of Canada.

His alien feet need to be held to the fire and he should be required to disclose his concealed records that are a slap in the face to a TRUE CONSTITUTIONAL CONSERVATIVE.

What a sorry poser.

What positions do you find scary?

For myself, the positions I can see Trump standing for are better than what Cruz offered, Trump's also a better candidate, plus he has the strength to beat the dems and not whither in the face of the democrat/media onslaught that will happen when he wins the general election.

Cruz doesn't appear to have the capacity to do any of those things.

I have come to doubt some of what is ‘conservative principle’.

I don’t think ‘free trade agreements’ are automatically conservative.

I don’t think open immigration is conservative at all.

I don’t think globalism is conservative at all.

I don’t think wars of culture change are conservative of any variety.

I don’t think national control of education is anything other than socialist.

And on and on...

He was Canadian citizen the day he was born.
To be a natural born citizen one must be born here of citizen parents.
Ted Cruz was born to a Cuban national father in Canada, making him a Cubanadian-American, not a natural born citizen.

It’s malarkey like this that makes Cruz, who has spent 99% of his life in DC (the other 1% was in the womb),a village idiot.
Watering down the platform? Hm .........really!
Since when did the platform mean squat to the GOP?
*So they are the party of strict constructionists. Really?
Then who appointed all those progressives to SCOTUS during the R ascendancy from 1865 to 1913, who eviscerated States Rights and centralized power in DC??????
*And they are the party of Free Trade, right??? Wrong!!!
Between 1865 and 1930, the R’s, passed more that a dozen major protectionist Tariffs in response to crony capitalist demands to bar superior manufactured goods from Britain and especially Germany.

Yes, I agree, Ted is scary.

Trump’s positions are PRO-American and that’s what I am -a patriot.

Donald Trump will put AMERICA FIRST!

Ted would put GoldmanSachs, the CheapLaborExpress, or any globalist that fills his coffers, first. He has already proven exactly who he really is and he would only have been worse as the nominee.

Thanks to God for revealing the truth to us before we were stuck with Ted.

I agree with Donald Trump’s positions and have recognized his ability to lead and succeed long before he ever entered the race.

I am so pleased that this worthless lying POS is not now and will NEVER be our president.

I look forward to seeing Texas do the right thing in dumping this jerk.

Dear Ted,

I just finished enjoying the Trump rally in San Diego… And I think there’s about 30 to 40,000 people here that would like to kick your ass

Sincerely,

A conservative

Expanding ethanol subsidies, tariffs, open to minimum wage hike, no SS reforms, spending, to name a few. Trump is excellent on immigration, SCOTUS, terrorism, taxes, and others.

Thank you for posting that part. I had to edit down to 300 words and some important parts were lost in the edit.

And you are quite perceptive. Ted is banking on hillary to win to further his own political career.

I bet that Ted’s own personal vote on November 8, will be for Clinton or Sanders.

Ted First- America Last
