Conservative Radio to Donald Trump: Like Ted Cruz or You Lose
The Daily Beast ^ | January 20, 2016 | Betsy Woodruff

Posted on 01/20/2016 6:43:33 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Conservative talk-radio stars gleefully watched as The Donald rubbed everyone in media and Republican circles the wrong way. But now that he's turned his fire on Cruz, they're picking sides--and it's not Trump's.

In a gentler, tenderer age--an age long gone--Donald Trump brought talk radio hosts together.

These were the simple, balmy days of last summer, when radio talkers agreed that even Trump performed an invaluable public service by driving national media and the Republican establishment totally out of their minds. But those days are gone....

That’s funny, you think the frontrunner for the past 6 months needs lessons from the one he’s been beating?

Of course a Trump supporter does not want to hear facts.
So turn it off.

Nope, I turned it off so the sinful hateful lies would not jack my blood pressure and kill me.

It appears what happens on FR goes to Trump.

Some of these people apparently never sleep. They just keep pimping Trump and trashing Cruz 24/7.

With overtime they must be making a bundle.

What is so damn incredible is you people are FANATICS. All anyone hears is Conservative, Conservative, Conservative, blah blah blah. I’ve been a conservative all my life, but I’ve never belonged to a group who screams and yells about LABELS instead of looking at a person’s qualifications. You TOTALLY ignore who has the skills to get the country back on balance economically and who will rebuild our military, as well as stop the illegal invasion. Don’t tell me it is migration, it is INVASION! WHO is going to stop it? Cruz had the chance to stop it or to at least vote correctly as the people demanded. But no dice. He had to play fancy politics. To hell with him. He is a total disaster and besides he is not eligible.

Trump is a life long liberal who has supported every single far left policy ever invented, including Trump supporting amnesty (before he was against it), homosexual married, abortion Obamacare, PORKULUS, TARP, affirmative action, supported Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Deblasio....you name it, Trump supported every far left crazy out there.
Don't believe his “just in time to run for president” switch to conservatism. Its a total sham.

Seems lots of the Pied Piper's lemmings signed on last few months.

I remember when Trump made his announcement that he was running. Apparently he paid the crowd to be there.

I'm sure he is paying some of these trolls.

Many Cruz voters would rather have Bernie or Hillary than vote for anyone but Cruz. True Patriots! /s

No that’s Cruz.

Cruz just switched his position on the NSA spying the day of the last debate. Signaling to the Establishment he is with them.

Cruz is NWO for sure. I can take a little cronyism IF it is true, but I CAN’T STAND TRAITORS. ANYBODY for the NWO is AGAINST AMERICAN and THAT IS TREASON.

Cannot be said enough. People need to wake up.

To be succesful in the long run as POTUS, Trump has much to learn. Ryno, Pelosi, McConnel and Reid’s replacement are going to be more problematic than he thinks.

He was a New York businessman and NOT a politician at the time.

If he would have said those things before being a politician, then it would have killed his business in liberal NY. He had to play along.

In any business today that is true. The three things you never talk about is sex, religion or politics.

The people that have known him their entire lives are saying this is the REAL Trump. The public never saw it until now.

Perhaps you do not work in corporate America, and it’s why this is so foreign to your understanding?

You are right, the rancor has increased, but it always goes a little crazy right around primary season. This year is particularly bad, I submit, and it feels like the comment section on Youtube sometimes.

Donald Trump has switched his position on every single policy positioning there from his normal far left position to conservatism, just before he run for president.
Trump is the single biggest flip flopper in history. Only thing is, it’s just a sham. Trump is still a hard core liberal.
