“Don’t look now, but Trump is the only anti-establishment candidate left running. The GOPe is now backing Cruz to the hilt and he’s doing their bidding. Fiorino has come out for the GOPe big time, and is throwing all her schoolmarm charm Cruz’s way. Rubio’s a fricking amnesty traitor and Kasich is all in big government GOPe.
Thankfully, Carson has seen the light and so has Sessions and they’re backing Trump.
Cruz has let his ambition get the better of him and has lost it. He’s been thoroughly indoctrinated, corrupted and absorbed by those we’re fighting against. He’s now fighting with the GOP and the establishment political class against We The People.
And unfortunately, some of our very own have been unwittingly sucked into the GOPe vortex.”

Wake up vet! The enemy is within the gates not just on the Dem ticket.
I wouldn’t be surprised to find out that Cankles, Bernie, et. al. are supplementing the incomes of a few FReepers that signed up this summer.
And here’s the problem. Under other circumstances, I would have voted for Cruz — I donated to his campaign several times. Even though I hold a very low opinion of him now, I would have voted for him to avoid Hillary. But, I simply cannot this time around: I do not believe he’s eligible. By his own words, not all that long ago, he, himself, didn’t believe he was eligible.
From the comments on FR, I’m beginning to lose hope that the Constitution and the nation can be saved at this point.
“Full disclosure: I voted for Cruz in the Texas primary. If Trump is the GOP nominee, I’ll vote for him in November.”
Let’s keep our sights on the real enemy of our Republic, the Dems (and, specifically, Clinton). If Clinton becomes President, it cements everything that Obama did into place...and then it gets worse - WAY worse. Our Republic may literally not survive.
Time to stop the senseless personal attacks, time to start discussing in a positive way what each candidate would do to help fix this country.
After seeing thousands of the most vile disgusting tabloid-type threads and comments for the last 8 months?
Hmmmmmmmm...
Didn’t Sanders just take 6 states to hiliary’s 1 state?
Hiliary might win by dem fix just like Ryan or mittens by win by Repub fix thanks to Ted but the election isn’t decided by corrupt delegates and dirty rules and trickes. Trump would kick hiliary to the curb. Sanders will only get the hard socialist vote he can’t reach most Americans even dems.
On the off-chance that Cruz somehow gets the nomination, I’ll vote for him. Not happily, because at the very least I believe his judgment is SEVERELY compromised, but I will.
Any other establishment stooge, I’d rather vote third-party, because it’s getting to the point where there’s no real difference between the parties.
I understand where you are coming from but he would be marginally better than the old commie or the slightly younger commie so I would vote for him even knowing he is an agile with barely passable knowledge of any issue with hat requires a bit of thought.
If Trump is the nominee. I’m staying home. He and his supporters can kick rocks.
Sorry, I’ll never for Cruz. He’s nothing more than worse than Obama. He’s got the slack-jawed yokels flim-flammed. BTW, Heidi needs whatever you can spare. Second mortgage your house, sell the kids,
I share the same sentiment. Which is why I find it difficult to support Trump. In my view, a Trump presidency is the equivalent of putting a band-aid over an infected wound which will only serve to exacerbate our problems.
Maybe he builds a wall, right-sides trade, defeats ISIS but that only serves to create a 'safe space' for America to continue with the status quo, devoid of constitutional and moral principle. All of these issues, when you look at the objectively, are external and incidental. A form of situational politics.
I would be happy with either Trump or Cruz winning the Republican nomination. I would prefer Trump because I think Trumpbwould actually do what he says because his ego on the line after having made all these promises and I don’t think he could stand not fulfilling them.
I will NEVER vote for any candidate the GOPe would force on Republicans in a brokered convention. We had a vote in the people’s vote should count. If the GOP tries to force a candidate in the convention I will stay a Republican but do everything I can to take out Republican incumbents in the primary for a long, long time.
Yeah I saw it.
the site owner has determined that is not an acceptable position for FR users.
Be careful then.
Don’t want to lose you!
“Be careful then.
Don’t want to lose you!”
My faith in FR is gone. So at this point, if I’m gone, then I’m gone.
I agree.
We’ll never know, but it was hopeful (by me at least)that their meeting in Manhattan resulted in some kind of agreement or understanding that they would see to it that both of them would prevail. The only question was who was going to be POTUS first, ans who would carry the torch the second eight years.
Seems like a monumental waste of an opportunity.
“I will vote the most effective way I can to keep hillary out, and that means voting for the GOP nominee. I voted Cruz in Primary, if Trump wins the nomination, I will not enjoy voting for him, but I will do it. Voting for someone with only some conservative values is better than electing someone with none”
I would vote for a can of tuna rather than Hillary, Sanders or any of the Dems that might step up at an indictment.
