“If the GOP voters nominate anyone but Trump, they just want to lose.”
That is so true. NONE of the others have a snowball’s chance in hell of being elected. Cruz is the smarted and most Presidential of the rest of the lot, but he has ZERO cross-over appeal and the media will shred him as being so conservative, he’s right of Attila the Hun.
Cruz is winning about the Donald. What a weasel wuss. Drop out Ted.
Remind me tomorrow to give you my take. It was kabuki tonight. The two are setting it up
Mark the date.
Yes, it was a great debate, Trump won, Cruz lost big time.
It’s going to take more than Ted Cruz saying “move along, nothing to see here”. This has legs. Just watched TRIBE on MNBC.
Secretary of State from any state, who is a Constitution originalists can throw his name off the ballot now, according to Tribe. The Supreme Court is divided between originalists and living Constitutionalists. Yikes.
The truth is, Cruz is NOT a "great" debater, nor is he any good at the Constitution! He absolutely LIED THROUGH HIS TEETH re Trump's mother!
Cruz can choose Arnold Ziffel as his running mate.
Wow somebody agrees with me.
I guess you don’t understand business then
I usually fight these battles alone.
That's the "simple" default on a read of the constitution. The founders didn't anticipate the US being the world's police force.
I haven't studied the details, not sure if I can make a simple explanation, but US citizenship follows state citizenship. What is your state of residence? Where are you domiciled? Those questions matter. Also, any claim the host country has. Most host countries don't grant citizenship to children of parents who aren't "permanent residents," and law of nations abhors a stateless birth.
It would take a court case to sort it out - hasn't been important because nobody born in that spot has run for pres. They are citizens, no doubt. Much more complicated than the Cruz case, which resolves straight out of principles well-expressed in Rogers. V. Bellei.
Your pic in #153. Just superb, lol. Is that Jeb Bush with the sun glasses.
Give it up Yeb, dumbass.
Isn’t it about the time for the orderlies to wipe your chin of apple sauce and tie you down to your bed for the night?
Huh!? “Manufacture” soy beans? WTH? I live in Nebraska - we GROW soy beans here ... you know, like plant a seed in good soil, fertilize and water - and voila! - you got a CROP of soy beans. It ain’t rocket science!
Cruz won as usual. Trump showed his ignorance on foreign trade and the constitution.
Is that the New yawk response to Teds insensitivity?
Shucks we was only trying to answer in a sensitive New yawk way
Yeah I caught Trump’s response to Haley. It was brilliant how he avoided directly criticizing her while once again emphasizing the very things she hates him for. This ain’t the Punjab, Haley. It’s America, learn the rules.
...the liberals would love to see him disqualified for it but they’ve spent the last 8 years muddying the waters and establishing precedent that makes it nearly impossible for anybody to claim “standing” to challenge it trying to protect Obama’s ass. ...
That will be Ted’s first line of defense. The American people may wake up and be completely PO’d at the Democrats
