I have heard just about all the Republican candidates speak with more depth and substance on issues than I have heard Trump speak. (Well, I can’t say that about Gilmore, since I have not heard him speak at all.) Ted Cruz, in particular, stands out in his depth as a cogent constitutional conservative.
“I have heard just about all the Republican candidates speak with more depth and substance on issues than I have heard Trump speak.”
We must hear different things. The candidate I have heard most from is Trump, followed by Jeb!. The rest are just sound bites. Now, during the debates, the moderators present Trump with smears cloaked as questions. Then they will ask the other candidates questions. Rubio and Fiorni use bullet points; Trumps talks about the fence, trade, jobs, etc. Also, I don’t really care how glib someone is talking, I look at what they promote. Rubio continuously promotes amnesty, so I don’t even pay attention much to what he says because I know what he is.
Ted Cruz voted for TPA and the Iranian arms bill, and then spends all his time campaigning against both (and, he makes cogent arguments against them for sure). So how can I trust him? That is what Obama does — runs against his own policies and blames them on Republicans.
The ONLY issue is immigration, which is what Trump forced into the open. We get amnesty, then the country is over.All the other candidates are basically pro-amnesty.
