It’s truly interesting how Trumpophiles seem to always use the tried and true Dim strategy of attacking the messenger rather than the message.

Could it be that the message is accurate therefor they have no other choice?

They can’t stand on Trumps record because it’s so obviously un-conservative. They must rely on amplified boorish rhetoric and the tearing down of their opponents record.

Agreed. I have asked til I am blue in the face to name something he has done that shows he has a sincerely conservative held belief...and all I ever get is attacked.

I did finally have one trumpster say that she conceded his past was worrisome but she trusted him now to do what he says he will. I vehemently disagree, but I can at least respect the intellectual honesty there.

I’ve seen more anti trump posters use ad hominem than trump supporters. You used ad hominem in your post.

Your second paragraph commits the fallacy of two few alternatives.

You only invite attacks on your candidate when you come onto a Trump thread trash Trump is little more then hateful insults. One of the more “putting off” things about Cruz is that a lot of his supporters are vile and hateful towards everyone but Cruz.

Nice try, troll-boy.

Reagan used to be a Democrat, too.

Trump loves the country and wants to undo the damage the left has done over the last 50 years.

Does he suck on some stuff ? Yes.

By contrast, the GOPe says all the right things during campaigns, and then goes and votes the exact opposite, and punishes those few conservatives who *do* make it past the dog-and-pony primaries into office.

But when your back is against the wall, and your own party's leadership has for going on at least 20 years, openly lied to its base, to the point that they now feel safe spitting in our face --

taking the time to see that your lace panties match the tastefully-appointed pommel on your ceremonial (blunt) sword is insufficient.
