Ted Cruz told reporters, who once again asked about the Trumped-up phony eligibility claims, that Trump is disturbed that conservatives are rallying behind him, and that he’s only attacking him because he’s losing in Iowa:
Cruz: Trump is worried because he's trailing in Iowa (Video)
It’s so true that Trump is disturbed. Remember when Ben Carson was leading in Iowa? Trump told Iowans they were stupid for supporting Carson and accused Carson of having some ‘pathological condition’.
When Trump is a desperate man he’ll say anything to win, no matter how ridiculous and dishonest. And his fervent Trumpers will follow right along, not even noticing their own blatant hypocrisy. They’ll passionately defend Trump when he mocks a disabled journalist, but when Trump tells them to question Cruz’s eligibility (even though it is not in question), they go all in.
Honesty is not something that Trump employs when he gets desperate and even though his fervent followers really don’t care, I hope it will be his undoing.
Agreed.
Day after day now we see the same posters placing attack articles on here doing the left and the establishment bidding.
These people are no better than the people who hate Cruz and Trump.
They should be glad and happy that we finally have to non establishment people running, but instead they would rather tear those two down , instead of looking at who the real enemy is.
Spoke to skeeter yesterday and others feel the same.
We are Trump or Cruz, and these people attacking either one is only doing the lefts and the establishment bidding.
Both sides need to knock it off and target who the real enemy is.
I think y’all might need a Super Soaker. Unless it’s time for a fire hose already.
just sayin
It is pathet5ic to see two good candidates who are non establishment have a few supporters who want to attack each other.
How the establishment must be laughing and then some wonder why we can’t get a decent person in power.
Voters chose soebarkah because of the color- black.
Voters are choosing Trump because of the colors- red, white and blue.
Ted Cruz is delusional if he thinks the primary reason Trump is bringing up Cruz's birth circumstance is to derail him because he's surging past Trump in Iowa. Bullshit! Trump is warning Cruz as to what lies ahead, compliments of the rat party.
There was a SECOND “Ban the Trump Supporters!” thread on FR?
i must have missed this yesterday, but it seems to me that since at least yesterday, but perhaps even a bit before, people who support Cruz exclusively around her have gotten really shrill, and just basically downright unpleasant.
It bothers me, because I support Cruz and Trump, but I’m going to be honest and go ahead and say that Trump is running away with it, and it appears to me that he is going to be the nominee, and I will happily support him.
I can’t really get my head around this whole we must nominate Cruz or the country is lost, to the point to where I am going to belittle and mock anyone who supports Trump. That seems like a really stupid thing to do.
I think both would make a great president. I’m not sure that either of them can effectively turn around America’s decline, but I am positive that both would give it their best shot. I think trump is going to be the one who gets the chance to try, and I’m looking forward to seeing him give it his best shot, which is going to be a damn good shot.
Those folks appear almost annoyed or sad. Was this a funeral he attend recently?
In fact, they will attack others who point out the truthful but negative aspects of that person.....and they will even "love" the person even more!
Parents of teens will recognize the syndrome very well. (I say this as mom of three daughters and heaven help me if I criticized any new boy friend for any reason!)
Quiet desperation has set in.. and set in deeply.
Yeah. I noticed that thread before it got yanked.
I have noticed over time, most(not all) Cruz supporters are defensive,
angry and very insecure.
Agreed. I’m a Cruz supporter who could vote for Trump if he gets the nomination. But Trump supporters are hurting Trump more than helping him. I’ll vote for Cruz in the primaries, but if Trump wins the republican nomination, I’ll have to think about it on election day.
I see him as just another one in an endless line of lawyers turned politician seeking yet another government office. Btw, there are lots of folks now wondering if Rafael isn't just the fall back guy for the D.C. establishment in this election. Those in D.C. are well known to do things like this as they play endless con games.
True. I am guilty myself, of late. It’s like grade school when the little punk behind you kept stabbing you with a pencil until you slap him.
I’m only half kidding about the fire hose.
I realize it’s competitive, but you’d think we could at least be civilized about it instead of being so vicious.
I am a dude. I am not romantically interested in Trump at all. Nor do I adore him.
Your analysis may hold true for silly, little teenage girls, but you don't understand Trump's supporters at all.
Perhaps this illustration will help you understand.

It’s possible that you are correct about that, and I am not going to lie and say that I haven’t wondered the very same thing myself.
And I’ll tell you the exact nature of my thoughts on that. I have wondered if, because of his vote on the Corker Bill which troubles me greatly, Cruz is just another actor in the kabuki theater of our government.
I have chosen to believe that he is not, but the fact of the matter is that I could be wrong in my belief.
Our government is very skilled in putting on a show whose purpose is to fool us all day long, and it is very possible that they are all actors in the show.
Even Mike Lee has had a couple of votes now that make me really scratch my head, makes me really wonder if there is actually anyone on our side at all.
