This is actually pretty good.
Good arguments to support Trump.
Thanks.
Ted Cruz spoke at a meeting of middle-eastern Christians but the audience turned into an anti-Israel hate-mob, and booed and screamed at him. Are you part of that group?
bflr
ME Christians are anti-Israel? Sounds suspicious. Where was this meeting? In the middle east? Maybe it is true, but it sounds questionable to me.
I do not think the author intended to say or imply Cruz was against ME Christians. Obviously not. Neither was W. The point is that policies W supported harmed ME Christians inadvertently and the author was unclear whether Cruz would repeat these policies or learn from them.
If all Trump supporters were as honest, conservatives might make progress on issues for a change. Instead we go to war over personalities and end supporting what Rush used to call symbolism over substance.
The sign of a smart voter is that they can see flaws in their own candidate.
Trump for President.
Trump will be far better on the economy too.
Cruz ultimately has one issue: The Constituion.
Trump ultimately has one thing: Himself.
Cruz = God.
Trump = What evil exists in the world.
We get it.

Republican US presidential front-runner Donald Trump is apparently "honored" that Russian President Vladimir Putin considers the real-estate magnate a "flamboyant" and "very talented" man.
"It is always a great honor to be so nicely complimented by a man so highly respected within his own country and beyond," Trump said in a statement, according to Politico.
He continued: "I have always felt that Russia and the United States should be able to work well with each other towards defeating terrorism and restoring world peace, not to mention trade and all of the other benefits derived from mutual respect."

"If we want to actually dismantle ISIS, we need to dramatically change course. We need a real, robust campaign that maximizes our overwhelming air advantage.
We need to focus our efforts not on trying to create friends, but on supporting our real ones, especially the Kurds in Iraq and Syria who have actually had success against ISIS."

"We can redouble our efforts to develop the defensive weapons that neutralized the offensive Soviet threat -- particularly missile defense, which has seen a 25% budget reduction under Obama, according to an analysis from the conservative Heritage Foundation, and has been constrained by bad arms deals like New START.
We should not only move quickly to install the canceled interceptor sites Putin opposed in Poland and the Czech Republic, but also to develop the next generation of systems that will only increase his discomfiture.
These options do not entail a ground war in Syria, yet would effectively shake us free from the failed policies that have brought us to our current impasse.
These options set us on a new path that puts Putin on notice that the United States is reclaiming our traditional role as leader of the free world."

"I think it would be a mistake to get involved in the Syrian civil war. There have been voices in Washington eager for us to send our sons and daughters over to fight that civil war for some time. I haven't been one of them. I think the touchstone of U.S. military policy should be protecting the national security of this country."
"What we're seeing Putin in Russia do is a direct response to the profound weakness of Obama over six and a half years.
Putin views Obama as weak, as ineffective, and frankly, as a laughingstock. And, as a result, he is moving in, he is invading his neighbors, like Ukraine, he's kidnapping Estonians, and he's moving into Syria to gain a stronger foothold in the Middle East."
**********************************************************
Ted Cruz:
"We need a coherent plan to address both the specific crisis in Syria and the challenge posed more broadly by Putin's resurgent Russia.
The good news is that America still has options, if our leaders can summon the will to exercise them.
For starters, in Syria we can't double down on the failed strategies that have given Putin his opportunity to intervene.
We are now two years out from President Obama's proposed intervention after al-Assad used chemical weapons against his own people. ..."

ETL, you are a Cruz supporter? I thought you were for Trump. Hmm. I’m glad.
Your post 11 makes no sense.
It's been on my tagline for around 2 months.
It’s not suspicious, it’s true. They’re pro-Hezbollah scum. Probably the author of this post is one.
Well, I guess I have not read your tagline in 2 months. LOL. Anyway, that’s great.
Trump would be YUGE for the economy. Nobody else is even close.
"The division and anti-Semitism expressed tonight by some of the crowd is not reflective of the teachings of Christ, and is in fact directly contrary to the tenets of Christianity," Cruz said.
Good for Cruz. Sounds like not everyone was Christian at that conference. Those that claimed the title but participated in the hate prove they are Christian in name only. Shame on them.
Cruz showed real character there.
