Trump is like the loose canon on deck. He may crush many things quite randomly before he is corralled.
However, the “deck” is Washington, D.C. How many thing in D.C. are so dear to you or me that we wouldn’t take our chances?

Well, there’s the U.S. Constitution for one thing. Take a wrecking ball to DC and you might not like everything that ends up destroyed.
Trump, though, is a wrecking ball. And we don’t even know which side he’ll end up destroying. Maybe he’ll just start making deals like he’s been doing all his life, settling on the deals where he personally comes out the best.
Cruz is also a wrecking ball, but I believe he’ll use the Constitution to do the wrecking. And I’ve no doubt that what he wants destroyed in DC is exactly what most of us here, both Trump supporters and Cruz supporters, want to see wrecked, permanently if possible.
Given the present situation in this country, and the anger among the middle class voters, either one stands an excellent chance of beating Hillary, or Bernie if it comes to that. Why not go with the candidate that we know will tackle the very issues we’ve been addressing in here for going on two decades now? Why leave it to chance, when we know exactly where Cruz stands on most of the important issues, but have to guess where Trump will come down on most of them? After all, Donald Trump has never cast a legislative vote nor signed a single piece of legislation in his life. He’s a blank canvas when it comes to policy, or worse, one with several conflicting layers.

The Constitution, for one.
And I have yet to EVER hear Trump mention or even refer to it, in any capacity. That’s a big RED FLAG, for me...aside from all the other red flags waving around Trump, that is.
Exactly. Besides maybe the collection of old masters in the National Gallery - which is Dutch, French and Italian by the way - exactly what do folks think is precious these days in Washington D.C. An original copy of the constitution? - we haven't used it in years to quote Henry Higgins.
