PING
It feels good that we’re 100 percent on the same side now!
Cruz is a tragedy. Could have been something. Now he’s less than nothing.
Way To Go TRUMP!!!
I have no sympathy for a person like Cruz...he is a cross between obuma and Bill Clinton...what he has done, he has brought on himself for being the lying, sneaky snake that he is!!!
>Every country wants into our markets. We have tremendous leverage on trade we have not used. Donald Trump will do that,” he said in a statement.
Now that’s the kind of endorsement I like to hear.
The GOP dam is slowly crumbling.
With Trump over 1,000 delegates and only needing about 38% of remaining delegates in the upcoming contests, does anybody still seriously think we are going to have a contested convention?
This is great news! Jimmy Duncan is a true “consistent conservative”.
He even voted against the Iraq war when no one else did.
ROFL!!! (((hugs))) and ***kisses*** to you for that...I am laughing so hard...I needed that one...thanks Mark...
My pleasure Dear Lady, glad you enjoyed it! :)
We shouldn't, but the GOP hasn't been called the stupid party for years without earning it.
My question is, why is Rush endorsing Cruz. He played on the air yesterday pence’ endorsement of Cruz. Pence spent a minute schmoozing trump before saying oh I’m gonna vote for Cruz. Rush was stuttering mumbling
Tgem he calls trump supporters trumpists. Name calling.
What is he going to do? Quit? Spend the four years he’s got left with an ever dwindling audience of Cruz supporters (no disparaging name does he have for them). Cruz is not going to be president
I hardly ever hear Rush on my current schedule, but I clearly heard him say either Thursday or Friday that he is not endorsing anyone in the primary.
And I can say don’t have blonde hair.
But I do.
[The GOP dam is slowly crumbling.]
The GOPe’s jumping on board would go a little faster but the Trump Train will have to go a little slower to let them catch up.
never watched or listened (ok, maybe 3 times)
What I know of him is from transcripts here.
dont know what he’s thinking.
i gather from transcripts ONLY that he i hiding what he truly believes. might be good or bad. i dont know
“I cudda bin a contender...”
Maybe, like Rocky in the succeeding films, sheer grit and determination gets him back in the ring.
Never say die on Ted Cruz. He will be with us for years to come.
“Yo, Adrian. We did it.”
lol. Still love that movie. Got me into boxing (that and getting beat up).
I hope he wakes up and changes some major flaws in character.
i liked him a lot only a few months ago.
