I’m sorry: You fault Cruz for “his strategy to take out Trump by attacking Trump’s demeanor and character. “
Trump’s strategy - let’s be kind and call it, Mother of All Sliming, of his opponents, does not bother you. His attacks of the GOP... not a bother. His claim of voterless elections where voters don’t vote for him, not a problem. His - boorish, juvenile, immature, undignified rambling, ‘would be a riot,’ incoherent, position-switching, press conferences... not a problem.
But..
>>Ted when he spoke about his strategy to take out Trump by attacking Trump’s demeanor and character -— first said it to his donors.
OMG. That would be really unfair. Trump would never attack an opponents demeanor and character. He’d go for how tall they are; their eating manners.. important stuff like that.
>>>I have never followed Trump’s tweets
Ah, but you have. That’s how you’re being manipulated. Trump tweets, his followers *must* echo his post, you react to the second wave which is where you get the info that Cruz started it and Trump is, um, a victim.
Trump has a major advantage in free media attention, he has a loyal following who will repeat whatever he tells them no matter how specious. He bullies and intimidates anyone against him; followers tagging right along.
It’s quite an exercise in watching a mob.
The reason for that is because those "problems" exist only in your mind.
That you would try to invert reality, talking past what we've all seen with our own eyes for several months, which is a relentless campaign of character assassination against Donald Trump, is utterly laughable.
The vast bulk of the "sliming" is coming from the Left/Media/GOPe & Cruz-Kasich "NeverTrump" vendetta. It's utterly slanted, amoral, and despicable, and its participants, who are conservative only in the sense that they want to "conserve" a corrupt system, long ago ceded the moral high ground to Donald Trump.
So you shouldn't be surprised that your alternate reality meets with increasingly dismissive attitudes from Trump supporters. We know Donald Trump isn't perfect, but we also know that he's by far the best choice we have at this juncture.
Apparently, Ted Cruz plans on limping into the GOP convention with, at best, about 700 delegates or so.
And then what's he going to do somehow, magically? He's going to steal seize the nomination from Donald Trump, displacing the party's clear frontrunner.
Then what? This is the most ridiculous part: in getting the nomination, Cruz will:
It would be comical if it wasn't so dangerous.
Ted Cruz appears fully willing to sacrifice his own party, and even the country, on the altar of his own blind personal ambition.
Ted Cruz's egotism and malignant narcissism make Donald Trump's ostensible character deficits pale in comparison.
When Ted Cruz benefited from the GOPe "greased skids" delegate grab in Colorado (Rush Limbaugh's description), Donald Trump turned lemons into lemonade, branding Ted Cruz as an entitled party insider. "Great ground game", my ass. Those Colorado delegates may turn out to be the most costly delegates Ted Cruz has acquired.
And now, it's possible that the Colorado delegates might not even be seated at the convention. Why? Here's what one Colorado Cruz supporter has to say about the states "by the rules" process: Colorado County GOP Chair: Errors with Ted Cruz’s Delegate Win, Might Need Do-Over
Vote Trump
I'm so sorry your candidate turned out to be a fraud. It's really not my fault that you can't see that.
What are you going to do when he wins the nomination, and the latest scam alliance of Cruz/Kasich fails?
