I think you will find few on Free Republic, that do not agree that Cruz would be the biggest disaster for liberals, socialists, fascists, and statists in US history.
IF he can herd, drive, or intimidate McConnell and Ryan...or more likely, Schumer and Ryan to approve, fund or defund, do or undo, what Cruz wants.
I support Cruz for his positions. Cruz is a Cubo-Canuck Jefferson.
I would support Trump for what he could do if elected. He is a bonebreaker.
We should hit the beach with the first man to hit the beach....but the beach needs hit.
If Cruz needs to Cromwell DC, then we should shave our heads.
If Trump needs his coat held while he schlonges McConnel/Ryan....then let us hold his coat.
Either man will be the best President since Reagan, and then Ike before that, and Coolidge before that.
But that’s just my opinion and I don’t feel strongly about it. :-)
I think Trump is a two edged sword. His values don't seem to be solid, more of a convenience so he can cut the deal of a lifetime.
That 'bonebreaker' might be a loose canon on deck.
One thing is certain. There is a storm coming.
