“I don’t see the momentum that Cruz has in any other candidate, and to be completely frank, I believe he may be the only candidate who can, at this point, prevent Donald Trump from winning the nomination”

So #1 he’s an idiot, and #2 he only cares about stopping Trump after he has been more effective in wrecking the GOPe, and the left/media machine than anyone else.

The right seems to be infested with the same weaklings that many used to say was only the traits you would find in the establishment.

Donald Trump IS the establishment, in drag.

The political bickering is getting heavy already on FR.

I posted a "Trump's Decline" thread last night and was promptly "disagreed" with, LOL.

When Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal exited the race a little more than a month ago, I was not sure I would offer another public endorsement.

Yeah, ok. Whatever new conspiracy theory floats your boat.

So I guess the stalking horse for Hillary talking point is worn out for you guys?

It's not new. I've regarded Trump as a foil since before he announced.

Not at all, but I'm not one of "you guys," as I have not selected a candidate. I just know a flaming liar and charlatan when I see one. See tag line.

“When Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal exited the race a little more than a month ago, I was not sure I would offer another public endorsement.”

“another public endorsement”?

First sentence, so he endorsed Bobby Jindal, which is a clue that it is a waste of time to read any farther.

"Donald Trump IS the establishment, in drag. "

Which explains why Trump is trashed by the Marxist Globalists in both parties and lame stream media 24/7. Great analysis /s

Has anyone in the GOPe threaten to leave the GOP if Cruz is the nominee? Has anyone in the GOPe threaten to support Hillary if Cruz is the nominee? Has anyone in the GOPe threaten to run a third party candidate if Cruz is the GOP nominee? What does that tell you?

Trump’s given so much money and verbal support to the Democrats that it takes an act of blind faith to believe he’s now just one of us principled, sincere conservatives. Some are willfully being duped.

I applaud the guy for endorsing Cruz but come on! He really preferred Jindal to Cruz to begin with?

If Trump is a democrat, then why did he not run as a democrat? Don’t the democrats love their own?

I wish he had. I would say he's more an opportunist than anything else. He's given over $100K to the Clinton Crime Foundation. And he said this.

"Hillary Clinton I think is a terrific woman. I am biased because I have known her for years. I live in New York. She lives in New York. I really like her and her husband both a lot. I think she really works hard. And I think, again, she’s given an agenda, it is not all of her, but I think she really works hard and I think she does a good job. I like her."

When most of us were fighting against the Clintons, Trump was financing them and saying glowing things about them.

And this is because you support the “Surging Ted” that will do what the Club For Growth’s $705,0000 tells him and be FOR amnesty or the “Surging Ted” that will do what Wallbuilders paid him for - to close the borders?

I get tired of asking this question, but no Cruz supporter has yet explained it. It is one thing for Trump to make an off-the-cuff flattering comment about Hillary, for whatever reason, but it is another for Cruz to VOTE twice, after careful deliberation, for the Obama agenda — TPA and the Corker bill. The Corker bill, written by the Whitehouse, enabled Obama’s Iran deal, the deal that gave Iran, a terrorist state, the green light to develop nuclear weapons and the ICBMs to deliver them anywhere on earth.

Which one of these is more deadly, the comment or the vote?
