As an American citizen and voter in Republican politics, I have every right to debate, discuss and make judgment on any and all candidates running in Republican primaries.

Disagreeing with any candidate is not "smearing", unless that candidate has something to hide, that he wishes not to be made well known to the general primary voter.

“Plenty of Christians supporting Trump”

Even though he does not seek God’s forgiveness! Of course Trump was brought up a Presbyterian, so maybe he is a Calvinist too!

Summed it up perfectly.

I just will not vote ‘party’ because it’s the ‘R’. They ALL claim to be conservative when running, and I clearly recall that old dog McCain doing ads about the wall. Spit.

Churches in my neighborhood have the welcome refugees signs, I go to the store and feel as if I’ve entered another country, there are vacant buildings, homes for sale, undesirables all around me, so many out of work, and I’m going to worry about IF Trump might not be conservative enough?

So, you saw the movie and you were not alarmed at his risk-taking that hurt other people? And his obliviousness to the fact that other people were hurt by his actions.

Please explain to me how you can possibly think that he has what it takes to fix all our problems.

Just because he SAYS that he can build that wall?

He has also said that he is going to keep Obamacare and make it better and that we will have universal care.

He also thinks Common Core is just dandy.

Trump will do anything for cash flow, or don't you remember that part of the movie?

” He only used that as a stepping stone for his real ambition - to rule the world and be wealthy.”

Except for the wealthy part, you could be the same about Sir Trump!

“Let me educate you. Cruz has big money donors, and if elected, who do you thik will control him? Main Street or K Street? You lose!”

Well, well, well, he have another educator among us that is going to make it so simple even us Cruz supporters will be climbing the Trump band wagon!

sorry I missed your reply.

My Rep ran as a conservative as pure as Reagan himself, but immediately fell in with Boehner and now she has a 57% conservative rating.

Voted against her challenger last time around, but to no avail. Held my nose and voted for her in the General because I am not so much of a purist that I can’t see the damage done when Democrats are in power.

I have voted against every Democrat since ‘74, aside from a few local races where I had a personal/business connection to the candidates.

“Is Trump a sinner? Yes”

But he does not feel the need to ask for God’ forgiveness!
Go figure!

“The facts are clear. I was born in Calgary. My parents — as a legal matter, my mother is an American citizen by birth. And it’s been federal law for over two centuries that the child of an American citizen born abroad is a citizen by birth, a natural born citizen.”—Ted Cruz There is a legal consensus on the issue. And the Naturalization Act of 1790, passed three years after the U.S. Constitution was written, said that “the children of citizens of the United States, that may be born beyond sea, or out of the limits of the United States, shall be considered as natural born citizens.”

That was just a bad analogy.

I guess we just can’t agree.

I didn’t say I wasn’t principled. I said there was a more pressing need.

To assume that Trump has had no dealings with any banks in his long business career to strain credulity. No businessman has ever done everything on his own, without having made friends and contacts in the banking world. How close those friendships and alliances truly are remains to be seen. I doubt Trump was squirted out of his mother’s womb with a fully stocked portfolio and without any need to make deals with bankers.

Well then. Nothing left to do but to get a hate on for 'em.

Jed Clampett: Now why you suppose he's doing that?

Jethro: I reckon that's how people wave hello to in Beverly Hills.

The GOP has no more chances to lie to me.

I’m done with them.

Trump’s turn at bat. Let’s see what he does.

The betrayal the Trump faithful will have to deal with will be soul-crushing. Trump was my second choice for a while. I consider myself very fortunate to have wised up. If I end up voting for him in the general election, at least I’ll be prepared what to expect.

Thank you for your comment. Sarah Palin knows both Trump and Cruz personally and professionally. To me her endorsement means a great deal because I trust her judgment.
