Everything you've listed is subjective and negative, the exception being the eminent domain situation which is not a point in his favor.

Get past all that. Trump warned us about the spread of terrorism and the need to stop ISIS, in an urgent, passionate way, BEFORE the Paris massacre. He's awakened the sleeping giant, that is US citizens who would've let a very bad hillary vs Jeb situation if Trump didn't stir things up.

The question is who can inspire and lead. The US needs saving, and I just don't see any of the wannabees having the forceful engaging personality to get it done.

So did Cruz, dear. In fact, on Sept. 9, Cruz was publicly saying that Syrian refugees in the U.S. were a bad idea.

Meanwhile, on Sept. 8,Trump was saying he thought the U.S. should accept some Syrian refugees, and changed his mind the very next day and was saying he thought the U.S. response should be "should be very careful", limited, etc. The same day Cruz was warning against taking them in because of the danger they pose.

Sure, in 2014 Cruz was okay with Syrian refugees in the U.S., but that was when they were talking about hundreds, not thousands or tens of thousands.

Sure, Trump is right on this, but don't kid yourself by saying that Cruz wasn't on it first.
