Is Donald switching teams again? A while back he said he had been on the establishment team, but had flipped against them. Yesterday, he attacked Ted Cruz for daring to truthfully point out Mitch McConnell had lied to conservatives.
That does not sound very anti-establishment to me. Defending Mitch McConnell is a defense of the establishment. It is also bad form.
Cruz was right. McConnell was lying and had been lying to conservatives. Him pointing it out on the Senate floor was necessary to expose McConnell. Trump is wrong to attack him for that.
This is just more evidence that Trump and the establishment are cozying up to stop Cruz.
Really? And taking Glen Beck as an endorsement is showing grown up? Not righting his ‘birther’ situation is grown up? Not running a business of his own and learning what that entails is grown up? I don’t think so....
He will play as this on Washington as well......make no mistake about it....he'll use everyone and anything to take out any opponent that stands in the way o his OWN agenda....and it isn't going to be as people think by any means.
That one’s got Trumpitis bad!
Hmmmm ... yes. And his agenda seems to be :
1) Building a HUUUUUGE wall ... with HUUUUUGE holes in it.
2) Single-payer government controlled health-care wherein he takes care of everybody.
3) Government subsidies to politically-correct industries.
Seriously ... The more I see of him, the less I trust him.
You have the freedom to vote for whomever you want.
“DON’T try to change my words around...you know exactly what I was saying and so does everyone else....get a life!!!”
Ah, hypocrisy.
You didn’t have an issue with that when it came to Cruz and “NY values.”
May God truly expose this fraud and impostor before it's too late...ad in such a way it's undeniable!
And you just simply don’t know what your talking about...or you would have understood everything I said....
I have come to the conclusion that Donald Trump walks around with a wet finger in the air. He will turn whichever way the wind blows. He will do a deal with anyone anytime and compromise whatever it takes to win that next gig.
I cannot tell him from Hillary.
They do share the same New York values.
Hillary is a dedicated, true-believer Marxist and hates America.
I understand that you take issue with people putting words in your mouth but you’ve no problem doing it to others.
Donald Trump is word vomit. He has no core values so he spews whatever enters his mind at the moment.
You may recall that we had a sort of "democracy project" going on in Iraq after we deposed Saddam Hussein. We gave a bunch of islamics the opportunity to vote ... and they voted for an islamic kakistocracy.
Why should America be any different? In 2000 more than half the people who could be bothered to vote, voted for a communist. We had a reprieve of sorts in 2004 ... then "We the People" voted for a communist in 2008 and again in 2012. 2012, in fact, was a damning indictment of the American electorate ... "We the People" knew exactly what 0bama is, and what R0mney is, and let ourselves get suckered into a "contest" between them. The result was a disaster. Lather, rinse, repeat.
Won't get fooled again??? Hah!
Actually Cruz ran for Senate on a platform. When he got to Washington and saw how corrupt it actually is it made him sick. He refused to bend to the "Smart" Senators like McCain, Graham, Schumer, Rubio, Ayotte and Turtle McConnell. Which marked him as enemy #1 in the Den of Crooks known as Foggy Bottom.
Myself when I cast a ballot I expect my Representative to do what they say they are going to Washington to do.
Obviously you would rather send the Ayottes, McCain, Graham, McConnells of the world back there to screw you over repeatedly. Otherwise support someone that does what they say they would do, not some Two faced Decade Long Liberal Con Man whispering sweet nothings in your ear.
Which is EXACTLY why we have the cluster @#@#@ we have there.
Hey here's a novel Idea. Let's keep re-electing two faced Liars who tell you one thing while campaigning and when they get in power do the exactly opposite. Like use every means available to stop Obama, hold down spending, get control of our borders... Let's send quislings like Graham and Ayotte and McCain repeatedly to play nice with Turtle McConnell and his Good Friend across the ISLE Harry Reid.
Then come back and tell me in 20 years how freaking great that works out for us.
Oh Wait....
I think ANYONE running for ANY office, should run on their OWN money, and do away with all this ‘money grabbing’ nonsense...that's that they used to do!!!
So because Trump said it... it’s the irrefutable gospel truth.
Got it.
NO Ted Cruz isn't going to be POTUS for a whole lot of reasons, and the main one is because he is a 3 year JUNIOR Senator and we already know what happened to this country by doing that!!!
Susan Collins, Lamar Alexander, Orrin Hatch, John Cornyn, Lindsey Graham, John McCain and Lisa Murkowski are all senior Senators, with more experience in government and life. And, of course, these conservative Tea Party heroes are doing a wonderful job, aren't they?
That is not how I see it. Cruz is not liked because sanctimonious arrogant jerks are not very likable.
Cruz has been part of the GOPe all of his political career. He is married to the GOP establishment, CFR & Goldman Sachs. A person does not get appointed appointed vice-chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee unless he is part of the GOP elite. Cruz has always supported the GOPe agenda and always will.
Anyone who thinks McConnell is going to be “reshaped” needs to realise that old dogs, old whores and old politicians do NOT learn new tricks.
They are what they are and McConnell is an old dog of a political whore.
