This analysis is pretty much on the money......I’ve said for weeks that Trumps voters today will become, in many cases, Cruz voters down the line.

Cruz doesn’t attack Trump because he agrees with him. He’s just a more refined version of Trump. It’s as simple as that.

AND if Trump were to flame out for whatever reason, Cruz would be the natural receipient of Trump’s substantial backers.

This is reminiscent of the detestable "Dr. Srangelove" Charles Krauthammer who lied on FoxNews about the "Cruz/Trump position".

This POS sought (at globalist Roger Ailes's behest, I'm sure) to tie Cruz to Trump simply because Cruz refused to denounce Trump.

The main reason Ted Cruz won’t attack Trump is obvious.

He hasn’t yet and won’t attack other candidates period.

There’s no need to make a special case for trump.

.... The Republicans should be very grateful and be allowing Donald Trump to blow through the Liberal Propaganda Machine to raise very important issues that have up until now been "Out of Bounds" for any honest dialogue. The Donald is taking almost all of the flack and for the most part surviving the Liberal Subterfuge.

...... The Republican candidates should be standing by and ready to grab the batons that Trump is tossing in their direction. They need to quit trying to be so politically correct and preventing ruffling a few feathers and take advantage and run with this while they can. Heck ..... If the candidates are in mortal fear of a little feather ruffling ...... What will they do when the actual feather plucking begins?

.... This is a very important historic election. Whoever wins the election will determine what type of America emerges on the other side.

.... This is not a historic time to be timid!

..... Isaiah 58:1 .....

I am a Walker supporter. He has better support and more consistent poll numbers than the rest of the conservative part of our field.

He will bow out after he’s finished carving and skewering the establishment, and urge his supporters to join Cruz.

If Trump does drop out before the Primary Season is over, I do NOT thing he will publicly endorse, or urge his supporters to join, Cruz. I like Trump and I hope he stirs the pot as long as he can. But, he’s a smart man and he knows a public endorsement from him could be the Death Knell for another man’s candidacy. He knows where his supporters will go. I say 75% of them go to the Cruz Camp. He doesn’t have to tell them.

“The fact that the media is desperate for Cruz to attack Trump shows how fearful they are of him.”

Fearful of Cruz or Trump?

“I think we might begin to consider .. seriously .. the potential marshal law that could conceiveably called.”

Begin?

I moved 2300 miles to a holler surrounded by armed neighbors ready to defend our homes, state, and nation.

We are ready.

Last week it was that Trump actually strengthens Bush

There seem to be a roughly equal number of FReepers who think:

Trump is a Hillary affiliate.

Trump is a Cruz affiliate,

Trump is a Bush affiliate.

It's fun to watch.

Awesome!

I hope more and more of us are ready and aware.

Whatever they have planned if happening at an accelerated pace now. Probably timed so Obama doesn’t leave office, like declaring martial law and then declaring himself dictator, like Hitler did
