‘Until the point where his supporters insult Cruz so much I decide that, with followers like that, he’s not the kind of guy I want in the WH.’
If you think Trump supporters are bad, you should be on the receiving end of Cruz supporters. There is an overactive cabal of them that is simply rabid.
Pot meet kettle.
still the most accurate screen name on the whole internet.......
“If you think Trump supporters are bad, you should be on the receiving end of Cruz supporters. There is an overactive cabal of them that is simply rabid.”
Actually, it wouldn’t surprise me to learn that a large number of ‘Cruz supporters’ are actually supporters of other candidates - people that despise both Trump and Cruz, but know that Trump must be taken down first.
They know they cannot directly attack both Trump and Cruz, so they act as if they support Cruz, using that as a platform to take shots at Trump.
They’re actually quite easy to spot - if they attack Trump (or Trump supporters) with vile, nasty, personal, comments, then they cannot be Cruz supporters, regardless of what they claim, as both Cruz and his supporters appreciate and also support Trump, just not as much as Cruz.
So don’t get too worked up over the anti-Trump comments from people you don’t know - there’s a VERY GOOD chance that they want both Trump and Cruz to lose, so that their candidate (Rubio, Bush, Kasich, Christie, etc.) can slip in to the vacuum created when both are gone. FR is a big website, those other campaigns know we’re here, and they still want their candidates to win.
“...There is an overactive cabal of them that is simply rabid...”
Here on F.R.? There is an overactive *immature* cabal on both the Trump & Cruz sides who don’t seem to understand the damage they are doing to each other and their candidate. They certainly do not represent them in a good light.
If Trump and Cruz would team up — in either order — they would be absolutely unstoppable. I think they both need each other. They both bring *very* valuable skills to the table that the other does not have.
What do these more rabid supporters do if both candidates are on the *general* election ticket as pres/vice-pres? If they then support that general election pairing after having spewed pure venom at one of the candidates during the primary, are we allowed to then righteously call them hypocrites?
I would not be surprised if this very plain, obvious observation earns me personal insults from one or both sides. It’s become just that ridiculous.
we should be thrilled that two VERY anti establishment guys are in first and second.
we shouldn’t be fighting.
THEY’RE not fighting. why are we?
when it comes down to both of them duking it out, I hope it stays civil, and they just point out what they would do differently.
but it is politics. BUT they do respect each other I think.
I have NEVER insulted Trump. I know him better than most, having seen his name and his buildings since teen years living in Manhattan.
never read anything sinister about him.
the ONLY person who wanted to build the Twin Towers Exactly like before.
that’s what WAY MOST of us here wanted!!!!
but they got that freak architect to design that thing and ruin our skyline.
