on the 30 or 40% of issues where Trump is pro big government and Cruz is pro limited government, which one would we be luckier to have as President?
I’ll tell you what bothers me. Pols who don’t speak frankly about the human/American devastation wrought by an unlimited number of foreign invaders flooding across the wide open borders. Pols who won’t even use the word “deport.” Pols who enable Obama’s devastating TPA. Pols who openly plan to flood the labor force via massive increases in H-1B visas.
I can't agree with your assertion that the difference is 30%-40%, but we recognize there's a difference in Cruz's favor.
The answer of course is that all things being equal, we'd be better off with Cruz.
Except in the real world, all things never are...equal. So I could smile the day after Election Day if either one were President-elect.
I believe Cruz would run the government like a conservative. I don't know how much he would accomplish.
Trump is not a textbook conservative. He has issued written documents saying, this is what I will do. I believe he will accomplish a lot more of what he says he will do. He's got good instincts and he listens.
