Everyone step back a second and take a breath.
I agree, reading the words of a lot of his supporters, you wouldn't know that. I also agree they are the nastier of the two groups.
The other side is hardly blameless, there ARE a lot of nasty Trump supporters as well.
Mediocre Mitt?
Did he get a promotion?
Seriously? Its primary season on FR. The flame wars are SUPPOSED to be epic. So far I am rather disappointed as I haven’t found a good thread yet to get kicked off the site again (I’m hunting for my fifth ban).
I don’t have a horse in this race.
But, if you think one side is going to stop when they have their foot on the other guy’s neck you are sadly mistaken.
Agree with your statement 100%
Because we know the stakes are very high (the actual demise of the Republic) then the responses and passion are at the peak. It would be good if everyone stuck to the issues but do Freepers have a list of issues?
One freeper had a list and I suggested it be a thread but after doing so the mods here took it down. Why can’t we have an issue thread if we can ask simple questions?
Palin should have left her son out of the discussion because the percentage of those who understand what life is like for those suffering from full blown PTSD and what it’s like for those who love them is NEGLIGIBLE to the masses. All of our vets who need help for whatever reason related to their service should be getting help.
It doesn’t take much to get those who are mentally healthy and at the other end of the trauma response bell curve to react with disgust because it is foreign to their existence. It also wouldn’t take much to educate the masses but it just isn’t profitable and those who are best at motivating the masses (social psychologists) are progressive liberals who hate the military (still using Mai Lai in their text books) so don’t expect any help there.
Bottom line...Trump supporters will be using their New York values when explaining their ideals and Cruz supporters will try to match his debate expertise but at a sixth grade level. JUST KIDDING, Y’ALL!
I say “have at it” but remember that we will be judged at the throne for every word that comes out of our mouth.
The destruction of conservatism began when we started voting "lesser evil". I won't be party to that any longer.
I suspect that many of those you refer to are not Cruz supporters but only pretend to be to cause division. Their end game is to damage both Trump and Cruz.
“We’ll join hands and (perhaps) unite.”
I can assure you that won’t be happening. History will repeat.
Post #19 was not for you but for LubbyLu or however you spell it.
But, But, But Trump isn’t a real Republican! /s
I too just pick the ones I feel like reading. I ask on Trump rally threads to let me know if he says anything new but no luck so far.
Those pesky Yeb! supporters!!! :D
Thank you....in the end the people will get what they want...God will not grant what they ‘need’ if they refuse the choice he offers.
Yup. 100% truth. And all the screaming by lesser evil voters cannot hide history.
My conclusion too.
I’d just like to see unnecessary personal attacks moderated better. Some people have become incredibly uncivilized.
“But, if you think one side is going to stop when they have their foot on the other guy’s neck you are sadly mistaken.”
You are right. And I have no problem with the candidates beating each other up. Someone said it here, “Politics is a blood sport.” But someone also said, “Obey the 11th Commandment.” This isn’t so much about the candidates as it is about us as FReepers respecting each other.
Thumbs up to that!
Yep....will vote for either. I see too many people say they’ll stay home and not vote unless it is some perfect candidate. That’s just handing liberals the WH.
