"Cruz told Breitbart News that he doesnât want to launch personal attacks against Hillary and Bill Clintonâs history with women during Mr. Clintonâs time in office from 1993 to 2001, but does believe that the democratic process will reveal the truth about their history."
This is exactly why Trump is better than Cruz. At the end of the day Cruz is a politician supported by Super Pacs and large donors. He plays from the same playbook as other politicians and doesn't get it. Meanwhile, Trump takes on the Clintons for the slime they are and throws them off their game so bad that Bill Clinton is left speechless and Hillary says she won't talk about him anymore. If Republicans want to WIN against the Clintons, Trump is the only chance. Cruz will act the same way McCain did about Jeremiah Wright when running against Obama. Stick to the issues and avoid personal attacks. I guess in a perfect world that would be great, but truth is if Trump had been up against Obama he would've hit the Jeremiah Wright stuff hard. From getting Obama to show his birth certificate, leaving Bill Clinton speechless, and wiping out the Jeb Bush campaign with two words "Low Energy" does anyone need anymore proof that Trump is the GOP's last best chance?

“Trump fights like a Democrat. The Reps try to stay above the fray and lose. The Dems have won the popular vote in five out of the last 6 elections.”
Well, I wouldn’t put it quite like that.
Trump uses the Democrats’ Alinsky tactics against them and does it better than them.
Bringing up Bill’s history is right for Trump because he’ll bring it up in a way that the ineffective Republicans never did. He’s looking to plant doubt, not to prove anything to a Senate or court. He was called sexist so it counterpunching in a way the democrats thought Republicans were too cowardly to do. Until now ;)
If Cruz really said the democratic process will show Bill’s history, he’s no different than the politicians if the last few decades who were too cowardly to get their hands dirty and waited for others. (And that other would be the real leader - Trump)
Oh please, are you quoting from the Mittens Romney, Bob Dole, and John McCain RINO playbooks on how to lose presidential elections?
“Itâs a waste of time to pound away at this issue. Hillary Clintonâs poor handling of her portfolio is the better issue.”
Trump is not limited to 1 issue - he can attack her on all of them.
I don’t think she looks like a victim at all. If she divorced him, yes. But staying with him knowing what he was and especially dragging the other Women’s names through the mud - she looks just as guilty as he does.
I bet on Trump!
Agree. We need a street fighter to go against the Evil Party. Unless you are willing to get down in the mud, blood, and beer, you will lose. Nice guys finish last.
Crazy wife too.
My mistake. Will do better moving forward.
:-) He’s the launcher!! Look how he came forward with the big question. Now that’s YUUGE if it gets certain PTB talking about NBC and perhaps anchor babies. After 200 something years, American Citizens have a right to know just what certain words mean.
Do you agree or disagree that Winston Churchill was a magnificent Prime Minister ? If you agree and I'll give you that yes,he was a politician, but he used bad language, said nasty things to men and women, etc. !
I can give you other examples, but you should see what I'm driving at; I hope so anyway.
Some of that stuff on the other thread is just silly and unimportant!
What next...we can't/shouldn't vote for anyone who dances, goes to the movies, watches T.V., drinks alcohol ( which trump NEVER has done ) or whatever thing one sect or another doesn't believe people should engage in?
But it shut the Clintons down completely and THAT was the point !
Trumpster needs to dump this Cruz/Canadian crap and get back to doing what he does best: Blasting the Cultural Marxists with both barrels at point blank range.
I sincerely believe Trump would destroy Hillary in the general. It’s like Pomeranian vs a Pit Bull.
The Clinton Cancer on the Body Politic MUST be DESTROYED!!
Trump is no Churchill and Churchill was no Trump. There is a lot of ground between not so much as a curse word and owning casinos, strip clubs and lap dancer businesses, etc. Making money off the moral degradation of society is appalling. I expect the left to embrace the Larry Flynns of the world. The reason I became a conservative Republican was because they offered something better. Perfection? No. But Trump has the lifestyle of a leftist.
Republicans used to say character mattered. Apparently it matters only for the opposition.
People that think she's the innocent little grieved woman doesn't know enough to come in out of the rain!!
She hired PI's to THREATEN the women!! Good freaking grief!!
The “democratic process” hasn’t done squat to Bill “The Fornicator” Clinton or his partner in crime.
Why would it work now when it didn’t work back in the 90s?
It makes no sense to separate Bill’s activities from Hillary’s. They are a team. If you elect one of them, you get the other one in the deal.
The thick-headed LIV’s need to be reminded again and again of what a Clinton presidency means.
Hillary: “We are the president”
Trump is in it to win it. In a brawl against a gang of thugs, it’s not the time to worry about niceities . Hit the SOBs as hard as you can and as much as necessary.
For all I know Trump and Cruz have a good cop - bad cop deal worked out. Trump does the dirty work and Cruz takes the high road. Perhaps not, ( puts away tin foil hat ).
At any rate I find it refreshing that someone, anyone, is willing to battle the Democrat - media cabal. The GOP squish battle plan is to get beat up and retreat and lick the Democrats backside.
Trump for all his percieved warts, real or imagined, isn’t afraid to bloody the noses of whomever it is. The GOP lap dogs can tsk tsk Trump’s brashness all they want, he has his eye set on defeating the bastards of the left. He isn’t there to pitch platitudes to his worthy opponents.
The Clinton’s “ war on women” is absolutely a valid issue. Not the only one mind you but one that will definately make Bill Clinton a liability. Anytime the bent one opens his trap, Trump will be there to put a scoop of Clinton’s own foul waste into it.
I don’t know if Trump will win, I don’t know if Cruz will win, I do know that Trump will do his best to make sure that Hillary doesn’t win.
:-)
GO Trump/Cruz
My comments on this issue do not reflect my personal beliefs but rather what I think swing voters would think about the issue. They are the only voters that can be moved from one side to the other, so it’s more important to analyze what they think than what we already think, since we would not vote for Hillary Clinton under any circumstances. They might. So on that basis, I maintain what I said before, but don’t misunderstand me, I don’t think of Hillary Clinton as a victim of Bill Clinton’s sexual exploitations. She is possibly a cause of them, I suppose. It’s not a winning issue for any Republican challenger when compared to the much more relevant issue of competence. It is no great feat to illustrate incompetence using Benghazi as exhibit A. Incompetence alone is a killer card to play. It should “trump” anything else and help the Republicans “cruz” to victory.
