the Leftist media and the decidedly non-conservative GOP are steering conservative voters either to Donald Trump

I stop reading right there. The GOPe is steering people to Trump? Good grief. Trump-bashing is the daily norm. Actually, the pollster liars have been trying to steer people to Cruz, in hopes of bringing the more dangerous Trump down, although of course they prefer Rubio--but Rubio isn't doing well enough to stop Trump at this point.

If Cruz were to win the nomination, he would be Palinized with a couple of weeks. He would become a figure of scorn and ridicule. Go ahead, make their day.

The GOP elite seem to have decided that there's a very good chance that they won't be able to have a bought-and-paid for puppet as their nominee. That leaves two choices:

If Trump gets the nomination, he gets the US population involved in cleaning out the DC sewer, both political parties. They lose control.

If Cruz gets the nomination, there's a much better chance he'll lose, and that's okay as long as there's no house cleaning in DC. But if Cruz wins? Well, he's already somewhat compromised with the kind of money-hungry campaign he's running and his proven inability to influence the US Senate from within. On trade and invader labor, he's just fine. On favoring big banks, he's got suspicious ties.

So for the elite, there is a "lesser of two evils". It's Cruz.

Trump is our once-in-a-century opportunity to save the nation. What is Ted Cruz's hurry? He'll still be young, and a more experienced leader in the US Senate, in four years.

Vote for Ted Cruz-He's the One Your Political Opponents Fear Most

Is this from The Onion?

Yep...The Onion.

WTF?

I occasionally check out the top two Democrat forums to see what they're up to. What I see there suggests that most Democrats do not think Ted Cruz is even in the race.

I’m (obviously) a Cruz supporter—and Trump. One thing I’ve realized is that should Cruz win, the senate will do anything and everything it can to deny him success as President. Little mitch (rhymes with) and friends will have the sharpened long knives out.

Trump, however, has billions at his disposal, and is master of the bully pulpit. Little mitch (rhymes with) will try something once and Trump will hand him his puckered turtle ass and from then on Trump rules the senate. Trump can destroy a politician by backing his opponent, not to mention all else The Wrath of Don brings. Cruz simply doesn’t have the same arsenal.

Cruz knows this, as does Trump. Which is why, when he and Trump met in the Trump Tower many moons ago, they made a pact, imho. Trump for Prez, Cruz for VP. That’s what it will be. Preordained.

The left fears a Cruz presidency more, to be sure. He’s a died-in-the-wool conservative. Trump is a centrist on most issues and has exhibited a willingness to change his views on any issue.

But the left fears a Trump nomination more. It doesn’t know how to run against him and is desperately afraid he mobilizes large numbers of disaffected white working class voters in swing states while black voters don’t get riled up against him.

The left is SUPREMELY confident in how they run against Cruz. They just take the Obama / Kerry / Gore playbook of nasty right wing man who wants women in the kitchen, blacks to the back of the bus, gays in the closet, God back in the classroom, and working people struggling for scraps from the rich man’s table. If it works against squishes like Romney and McCain it is going to crush a true blue like Cruz.

Cruz is a good person; I would vote for him if he were the nominee but I think it is Trump who is feared the most by far. It is Mr. Trump has the power behind him, of the outraged giant who has awoken with fearful and terrible wrath. This what the elites fear, the united and determined power of the American people (the outraged giant.) I do not think there is anyone else who could do this. I think God has prepared Mr. Trump, with all his flaws and his sins, for this day. And I think even those weaknesses will shown to be strength against the battle for our country that is now beginning.

“Sometimes, the best way to figure out what politician will best serve your values and interests is to look at what those antithetical to your interests are trying to force upon you.”

And it is all the more satisfying when the recipient of that narrative is your preferred candidate.

Donald Trump is being forced on us.

This person evidently lives on the backside of the moon.

Are the Marxist globalists supporting Rubio? Yeah. Are they supporting Trump? Hell no, even Cruz is preferable to the NWO crowd than Trump. The authors premise is completely wrong, ergo author is very uninformed so there is no reason to read more then the first sentence.

Anyone serious about putting it to the Marxist Globalist running the country are on the Trump train.

Only Donald Trump is not wholly owned by the billionaire donor class, Chamber of (cheap labor) Commerce and The Club for Growth.

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?
