As a Trump supporter I have yet to go nasty on someone not sharing my point of view. It seems a destructive.

I also believe Cruz is the most conservative in this race. The problem is that “true” conservatives are a minority in this country. If Cruz is the nominee, he will get my undivided support in the general election.

I also know that Trump isn’t a “true” or “pure” conservative. On the issues he’s been running on since last June, he is sufficient conservative. For me, the border is issue number one.

Cruz was the first to declare running for the presidency. I was excited when he first announced. I believe if Cruz made immigration his top issue at that time, if he took the lead role on that issue, he’d be the front runner today. He did not and handed the leadership role to Trump who did.

The border and the economy are linked and I believe Trump is the best guy to get that done.

Shockingly lucid and compelling explanation.

Well done.

Well said.

I respect your well stated reason for choosing Trump. I wonder how you explain that the border is your number one issue, yet you accept Trump’s “touch back” amnesty position? Seems like rewarding law breakers?

I quite agree with you. Ted unfortunately was for TPP also.
