That narrative is so condescending and idiotic...
It's just as easy to say "Trump folks can’t see beyond their own personal desire to see their guy “win”.
I'm sick of Trumpsters thinking we are mind numbed robots who like Cruz because we drool and lip synch to talk radio/Fox/pulpit...
I know I can think for myself in spite of my lack of support for Trump...
I support Cruz because he is a constitutional conservative...
I’m talking about now. Cruz has no path and hasn’t for a while. He’s just a pawn to the GOP ends. I understand the initial support for him but now it’s just helping the evil GOP. Most FReepers see that and that’s why Cruz only has a small % of support left here relative to Trump.
Obviously there are a lot of other reasons as well, but let me add one. Cruz is smart enough to not get trapped on "gotcha" questions and then in response the next day say the "abortion laws are okay we shouldn't change them".
It should be clear to FReepers that Trump is a destructive and doomed candidate. He has run a scorched earth campaign, personally insulting other candidates, denigrating their wives and lying about other candidates. He has no depth of understanding on the issues evidenced by how easily he was painted into a stupid position on abortion. If he wins the nomination he will lose in the general election. He won't be able to unite the Pub party and he won't overcome 70/23 unfavorables with women.
