Been my biggest fear this cycle. That Trump/Cruz will invariably knock each other out in mutually assured destruction, allowing Rubio to snatch the nomination.

How about the Giuliani run? When lots folks were zotted just for supporting him. Funny lots of the posters who were cheering on that purge are now supporters of the more liberal Trump.

The internecine warfare is bad on the Republican side but on the Democrat side the fighting is absolutely desperate.

seriously, i dont care about any of those things trump did. I dont care about what Cruz did.

I want to win.

or let’s play nice like McCain and Romney. that worked out well.

This animosity on both sides is gonna cost 2 or 3 points in the end and ruin us if it doesn’t stop.

Lots of pious Cruz supporters are vowing to stay home if Trump is the nominee.

besides amnesty, we have to figure out how the heck to undo 50 years of the best social engineering scheme in history.

the under 30s are brainwashed. Everyone goes to college and they hear garbage 3 or 4 hours a day.

Trump is going to win this in a historical landslide of biblical proportions.

To all Trump supporters, you should never tell a Cruz supporter that you will vote for Cruz for the general even if you plan on voting for him as the 2nd choice

Cruz supporters are going for scorch earth tactic because Trump supporters have no leverage. Learn from Trump, Art of the Deal

Just as well get my $.02 in here and get the flaming overwith.

I came into these primaries hoping for Trump/Cruz or Cruz/Trump. Didn't make me no nevermind either way. As mentioned upstream, any of the R's are better than either of the D's.

I'm REALLY unhappy about the way things have turned out. The whole election cycle I'v been praying, "PLEASE don't attack and kill each other for the enemy to see. PLEASE! So what happens? The whole motley crew are idiots tearing each other apart. Like there's no other election EVER that they can run in or no other high corrupt govt office that they could fit their fat arses into.

Well, if memory serves, Trump was the first one to let the howitzers fly by calling Cruz 'nasty' then the shit started flying every which way.

This REALLY sucks. i'm an Iowan and heavily disabled so couldn't get to the caucuses but when the general comes around guess I'll vote for Cruz.

Fire away.

Well I guess we’re all going to enjoy nominee Rubio who will most likely have another malfunction live to air against Hildabeast.

I’ve been annoyed by some Cruz supporters, and I’m sure some Cruz supporters have been annoyed by me.

It’s been a pretty brutal primary so far.

But if Cruz wins, he gets my vote regardless of anything I have said against him. Same goes for them all, even though I hate the other ones, except for Carson.

I do not want a psycho, cackling, hacking, barking criminal or an angry looking communist zombie as my president.

Make America Great Again.
vs
Screw America Again

Then they’ll say God is ‘’punishing’’ America when they set up that very thing by handing the election to the democrats.

Sick stuff.

See, you have no leverage. By telling a Cruz supporter their action against Trump has no consequence, you only encourage Cruz supporters to be even more nasty.
If both Cruz and Trump supporters know that attacking each other means Mutually Assured Destruction, neither side will win, this will encourage both sides to calm down and play nice

The possibility of a Rubio nomination should be enough leverage to scare the crap out of anyone!
