I didn’t blow it. The GOP hasn’t had a deserving candidate run in ages, THEY blew it. The party is ruled by the pathetic and none of them deserve votes. This is what let’s a 3rd party rablerouser take over. Heck it’s what let the Tea Party make its run, and those candidates actually stink too. When the GOP can find serious candidates to run again I’ll vote for them.
The appeal of Trump for me is mostly this.
There is no other candidate worth spit running! NO one addressed Trade, terrorism, immigration like he did. NO ONE.
I liked Cruz at first, until I really studied him. He’s dishonest and an insider with a messiah complex using the faith of good Christians to con them. How anyone looks at this guy preaching and point his finger and the anger coming out of him is amazing.....and completely ignored by his fans.
It is very telling to look at the announcement speeches of Trump, Cruz and Rubio. This was the time to present what THEY thought was important to them and and the American people. Trump outlined so many issues while Rubio and Cruz just talked about Cuba and themselves.

I'm with you on this, but sadly, Cruz will not pull in the cross votes we need to win. If Cruz gets the nomination, I will vote for him, but many of those "other" voters who supported Trump will either stay at home or drift back to their roots, making this election pretty iffy.
For that reason, I'll support Trump, warts and all, first.
