No, you also need to know how many people have lost their life savings due to Trump’s many bankruptcies.

Slippery as an eel, and a born liberal Democrat that has you fooled completely.

Subtlety isn’t your strong point. Donald Trump is a known quantity. People like him. Yeah, he may be more populist that conservative, but look what’s in the WH right now. You want Hillary or jeb. Cruz won’t win on his own. Hate to give you the bad news, but it is what it is. I think Donald Trump is the genuine article.

...and in one of those books he attacked Ronald Reagan as a con man.

This thread is about Donald Trump. If you wish to shift the focus on Ted Cruz, why don’t you open a separate thread about him and the TPA and TPP so that we can discuss it...

There’s no hypocrisy or diversion here. Just making a suggestion if you want to MAXIMIZE the “who is better for America, Cruz or Trump” issue.


Actually, it’s 100% hypocrisy and diversion here.

Criminal aliens are flooding across the border and killing literally thousands of Americans. Yet you chose to focus on some ruling that 99.9% of electorate has no idea about. Great strategy there. Priorities, FRiend. Think about them.

I think we’re in agreement there.

I didn’t care for it in this case either. Wasn’t this the one that included Walden’s Pond or some such? Did I confuse issues?

If Trump supported this one, he was wrong.

Yes, he is!

A slippery slimey liberal Democrat all of his life, until Hillary needed him to run interferance for her.

I was one of those, unfortunately. Fred was indeed a stalking horse for McQueeg and Trump is a stalking horse for Hillary.

Not only did he support it, his business was involved.

“Ain’t theater. I’ve been on this planet long enough to know a liar. Donald Trump is the real deal.”

It’s true. He’s a real liar.

Well, then he was wrong.

And when he called for a shutdown of the government to end funding for Planned Parenthood, you should have been happy about it and said so.

That’s how it works.

” We need to get our foot in the door. and Trump’s the guy to do it. Cruz will make a brilliant VP, while paving his way to the presidency.”

Basically what I have been saying for over a month now . Trump 4 or 8 years would usher in Cruz for 8 more . Making America great again .

If you were being honest, every candidate in this race has warts - including Ted Cruz - who I really like. He voted for TPP, which in my opinion, is far more harmful to our nation than the Kelo affair.

I don’t beat up on people for past mistakes. My first vote was for Pat Buchanan.

People who keep making the same mistakes are another matter.

The diversion is all yours!

Trump will keep every alien that has a job.

That is what he has said multiple times.

They all have jobs. Its the Americans that lave lost theirs and Trump thinks it is ok.

He employs illegals in his hotels. He needs to be prosecuted, and I hope Ted does it.

Well no. He's a real-estate developer, author, and lecturer. Recently he tried his hand (quite successfully) at the tv reality show thing. He's outspoken, brash, and somewhat abrasive. And you know what? I like that. Sue me.

Hit piece.

Hope they keep it up. Trump's popularity will jump up another 2 or 3 percentage points.

Who’s OK with government seizing private property from private citizens for private purposes.
________________________________________________

And who’s okay with the Congress giving the President (Obama) power to fast track negotiating authority, whereby Congress CANNOT Amend or Filibuster a trade agreement? The President has free reign to negotiate trade agreements with NO SAY from the US Congress. Does Iran ring a bell?

As a U.S, Senator, Ted Cruz was initially comfortable doing this very thing! I guess this doesn’t bother you...?

Wake up!

Trump cannot get elected and he knows it.

His negatives among likely Republican voters are reaching 60%.

He wants only to run as a Turd party spoiler to block a Republican victory.
