Ted, b/c he is fearless, articulate and willing to use the bully pulpit to go over the establishment’s heads. We need someone who can explain conservative principles in a common sense, understandable way. On many issues, I don’t think Trump fills the bill on this. Bob
One issue I have with Trump is that despite his grandiose plans I see no reason to believe he would get anything done by constitutional means. Doing them by unconstitutional means would likely get him impeached and we can’t rely on the fact that they haven’t impeached Obama to prove that it wouldn’t happen. As far as I can tell, Trump has little interest in the constitution.
Ted Cruz on the other hand can be very persuasive and would build coalitions between individual congressmen and the white house to get things done by constitutional means. (Much like Reagan did)
