“And I trust Trump more than Cruz to correctly judge the character of the next member of SCOTUS.”

Fantasy based on Trump's own Scalia comments and his support of Affirmative Action.

It's amazing how mesmerized he has his base. His Liberal past is nowhere to be found.

Trump's liberal past was never that liberal and it IS in the past.

Cruz's dirty tricks, lack of economic understanding and misplaced trust in others are in the present.

I’m tempted to say it’s straight out of Mussolini’s playbook. But I won’t say that, because it wouldn’t be nice.

I like your comment about how Trump has mesmerized his base.

That is the weirdest thing about this whole primary cycle.

What could account for this?

I think it is Magic Thinking.

Trump has convinced them that he will make all things better.

That is quite the comforting notion and if you can convince yourself it is true, then there is no need to think about pesky things like issues, or what the guy has done in the past, or anything.

He will be our Big Daddy.
