I have the same concerns. Cruz is the real thing and would make a fine president, but he can’t get the time of day.
Meanwhile Trump is picking all the right fights and has all the right enemies.
I’m a bit concerned just like anyone about some of his past pronouncements, things he said before he was prepared to go into politics, things he said as a businessman trying to survive in New York City. I’ve cut him a little slack, considering the circumstance and considering that he wasn’t really engaged in politics at the time.
But for example when he says he is the best candidate for “women’s issues”, I’m still waiting to hear what that means. There are a couple of things like that.
Still, on the border he is crystal clear. On trade issues he is crystal clear. I’m hoping he will flesh out his IRS plans soon; he has been a bit ambiguous but quotes from his book sound pretty good.
I don’t know that I agree with everything he says about the middle east, but I get the general drift and I do agree with the general drift.
And I like the fact that he and Cruz are finding common cause. That, I think, is the most important stamp of approval for me. If Cruz likes him, I’m in.
