'He’s pro-choice. He’s pro- gay marriage. He’s against traditional values. He’s New York, and he’s got to talk about that.'

He’s not one of us in philosophy, in sincerity, or in any of the deeds in his life.

Yeah, uh huh. paying a couple’s mortgage because they happened to stop and give him a lift. Going to bat for a Marine imprisoned in Mexico and writing him a check to get his life back in order is not in keeping with your philosophy. Saving a couple’s farm doesn’t count either. Yeah, sure. Trump has never done a good thing for anyone in his life.....forget the skating rink, forget the Vets he has helped, forget the Vet memorial. Yeah, sure, none of the deeds of his life count for crap because you prefer to think he is not snow white pure.
Now that's funny right there, I don't care who you are.
I'll bet he understands it better than you do.
My thoughts exactly!
I agree with you. I'm a Christian and a conservative. I'm still back and forth between Trump and Cruz, but I'm starting to lean Trump.
But the overriding issue for me is national security. Social issues like gay marriage don't even appear on the radar for me.
I'm a family man, and I'm voting for who I think will keep my family safer. End of story.
NYC has a few million people. America has a lot more Christians. Most of them don’t share ‘NY’ values. Nor are they real big when some fanatic starts screaming about “we;ll do it later!”
Just like the RINOs tell us every year as a reason to not vote for the conservative. You know. Keep our powder dry because this is the most important election ever! Just like the last four.
Soon though. We just need to elect the not conservative to WIN!!!
Doesn’t matter what that victory results in.
The liar on the stage last night was Trump. He admitted to being one when he said he changed his original stance on Cruz’s birth (”he’s in fine shape”)because Cruz went up in the polls.
He’s a progressive liar and people outside of his cult see through him. He would never be able to gather mass support. Just watch the debate again and try to keep count of how many times he was booed-—loudly.
As Cruz so succinctly put it "NY values.
The voting hasn't started, but when I see comments like "we don't need social conservatives because we have so many crossover voters" I begin to see that these really aren't conservatives. One thing I've learned over the years is real conservatives recognize that we need the social wing as much as we need the fiscal wing.
LOL, GREAT FIND
Republicans are the dumbest group of voters in the country...he could lie and they would eat it up.
Trump fans, you’re being played.
I’ve known it and preached it (to much gnashing of Freeper teeth) for years. Actions speak louder than words. Their actions are always about benching the conservative in any goven race, then bitching at the world we got because of their voting.
Moderates at best. Liberals at their core. It ain’t because I say it. It’s because their actions prove it. And if they don’t like it, I don’t care. Truth is truth whether I say it or not.
Yeah, I heard all that stuff four years ago about the most important election in history.
So I guess that was wrong...this is the new and improved most important one.
A Trump fan told me once that the only principle he cared about was winning. People who think like that, and vote, get everything they deserve.
I will not get into that argument. I think he is by far the best man for the job RIGHT NOW! This country is in BIG TROUBLE. You “perfectionists” are standing in the way of saving the greatest country the world has ever seen and you are not standing on solid ground. A half a loaf is better than none,if you want to look at it that way, but you would rather continue to destroy the country and make sure all of us starve to death, because the crust may be a little burned.
Somehow you prefer to forget that Christ was betrayed by his own people, the priests who considered him dangerous. Pilate tried to save him, but to no avail. It was a question of power.....,then as now.
Trump is a good man who has the future of America at heart, not the future of his own pocketbook. Choose a man by his deeds not by the words of political enemies.
Agreed.
You nailed it. And another few feet were added, lol.
Cruz did not lie about anything. Reading and interpreting the Constitution in under two minutes was not practical under the rules of the debate. He stated his position based on the opinions of other Constitutional lawyers. That's all.
If you are a Constitutional lawyer then please feel free to lay it on us rubes. Otherwise, you are free to express your opinion but with the knowledge it is based on incomplete and second hand facts. In other words, your perception of the matter could be wrong.
Wanna know why? Because Trump has it exactly right in post 219.
This is why I've always liked Cruz. He was a conservative when he beat the GOPe candidate for Senate and he's remained a conservative while he's been in the Senate. His consistency makes it a pretty good bet if elected POTUS he will govern as a conservative.
And Snopes gets debunked regularly. So we don’t really know the truth if it’s them claiming something now do we.
