No, Cruz supporters support a Conservative statesman. Trump supporters worship a wrestling promoter who is all about his own interests, always has been, always will be.

Nothing changed. Every election when it’s time to stand up for principled conservatism, half of FR stands down and screams at those who do have the courage of their convictions.

Trump is it folks. Anyone who thinks Cruz can make it to the end is delusional. If Trump is knocked out of the primary, we will have Jeb or Rubio.

Seriously, it’s time for these people to wake up.

Trump is telling them straignt up what he is. He’s playing them for suckers. It’s not too late to dump Trump and come home to the Constitutional conservative.

It is sad to see so many deceived people willing to put this dangerous phony in charge of our country. We have been weakened by Obama, now we may be embarrassed and humiliated even more.

If trump doesn’t win, perform as advertised and do well at it the gop is finished. Like it or not too many bush, McCain and romney’s destroyed it and cruise or Rubio can’t fix it. To many of us trump is more do or die than compromise.

A big-government statist who wants to “get a little bit establishment” is never “it.” What happened to the conservative values you’ve lived?

You’re trying to convince people to go with a liberal who is ADVOCATING for the establishment. Were you asleep during the years this forum raged against those very people?

“Let me tell ya, this guy would give Burt Lancaster a run for his money in “The Rainmaker”.”

Trump wins hands down against Lancaster’s bluster. Trump is the biggest blob of bluster nothing on this planet. He is laughable and likely to be president. If he wins, from that point forward, I will concentrate on my Texas staying conservative and not bother about what Trump does.

Actually he isn’t playing them for anything. They are what they are just as he is what he is. All he’s doing is taking the capitalist route and leveraging his resource.

TLDR: There’s a sucker born every min. Trump just has the guts to use them to benefit Trump.

Most of these people created their own Pillars of Styro. They did it with Romney, they bade excuses for Mitch and Bhoner and they are doing it again.

Kind of like Cruz birther stories?

Yes. Beating a dead horse on the Trump or Cruz side is tiresome.

That being said, the birther issue is pretty odd in that the definition seems fuzzy and it appears even fuzzier in that there doesn't seem there is an easy way to settle it.

If it was such a concern for the founding fathers, it would seem there should be an easier way to resolve it other than some long drawn out court process that is extremely hard to initiate due to standing issues.

"Trump is the biggest blob of bluster nothing on this planet. "

LOL!

Now I want to go a Trump rally so I can stand up and yell, "You great big blob of bluster nothing!"

It would be worth getting thrown out, lol.

Nope.

Only in response to the shit that's already been dished out.

Not going to sit on the sidelines while the vitriol is served up.

Oh, and 'Hi, Norm!"

RCP is not going to show the great charts making Trump look amazing. They are cousins of National Rview.

Trump is the man for President right now. I will say what I said earlier. I was really torn about donating my small amount to FR due to the hatred shown by Cruz supporters. I did though. I also said I get many poll emails. I had been voting for Trump and then Cruz but the Cruz gang changed my mind. I now vote for only Trump and leave the other 2 blank. Y'all are not changing anyone’s mind. I just do not understand the hatred shown by y'all.

Is the ‘Hi Norm! thing just another way to avoid the issue? I always wondered about that.

Well not really. You have lots of ways to avoid the issue. It’s just one of many. BTW, I wish you’d ramp it up a little. The sooner you alienate more lurkers, the sooner they choose Cruz.
