And I wouldn’t be shocked if Trump got elected and flip-flopped back to supporting socialized medicine, abortion or whatever other position he thought could help his poll numbers at any given date and time. Although we can only hope he flip-flops back to supporting the Cuba embargo.
Cruz’ wife? Seriously? What other candidates get this level of scrutiny that we start analyzing their wives’ backgrounds? If you applied such an intense purity test to Trump, he absolutely crumbles on far more pillars than Cruz does. If you want a candidate with many troubling and iffy stands in his history, Trump’s your man.
Cruz has said no illegals here would ever become citizens, while Trump said an unlimited number can come back in and immigrate legally. So Trump is more liberal on immigration and on expanding the Democrat voter rolls than Cruz. Cruz’ voting record has been absolutely phenomenal. Other than Mike Lee, what Senator has a more conservative voting record?
I’ll concede almost any point you’ve raised in that thoughtful post.
If Cruz can show he is free of GOPe donor influence and demonstrate he is capable of winning the General, I’m in.
Trump’s lack of a record and his money are his big selling points to me. Is Cruz truly an outsider? I hope so.
