UPSTATE SOCIAL CONSERVATIVE CITES IMMIGRATION ISSUE

Michelle Wiles – one of the Palmetto State’s most influential conservative activists – is leaving the South Carolina leadership team of Ted Cruz and joining the campaign of Donald Trump, sources close to both campaigns told us this week.

The Upstate social conservative – widely known and respected in evangelical circles – had been one of Cruz’s most articulate, well-connected South Carolina supporters.

Now her support will go to “The Donald.”

If this scenario sounds familiar, it should …

This isn’t the first time an influential female Cruz supporter has gone over to Trump’s team … and it may not be the last.

"widely known and respected in evangelical circles "

I guess that's what you call a Bible Belting?

Alpha male, I’ll give you, But pro choice & pro amnesty is a BALD FACED LIE.

Welcome to FR, noob. IMO, there are quite a sufficient number of Trump concern trolls now.

Supporters of the American oligarch Donald Trump seem filled with glee and are ever so eager to rub people’s faces in whatever today’s campaign tidbit seems to be. That’s fine, but should Mr. Trump prevail I will be looking to see what all these lurkers turned posters have to say when Mr. Trump reveals himself to be far more liberal than he is letting on to be.

My genuine concern is that Mr. Trump knows how to say the right things now - during the Primary - once over and assuming he would win, watch Mr. Trump tack hard to the left and tell everybody he has to do this to win the Independents. The reality being is that Trump will now be liberated to be the real Trump.

2008 — Hope and Change
2016 — Make America Great Again

Notice any similarities?

She is looking for a better deal. How many of these people from the entire political spectrum have jumped ship, whether by recruitment or disillusion. This is a common practice.

Has nothing to do with her religion or ideology.

It goes both ways. When good news comes out for the junior senator they gloat. This won’t be over until the voting

snip from source

"I have always been in the 'show me, don't tell me' camp

So I guess she is now in the "tell me, don't show me" camp?

Obviously she is a whore like Palin.

More like caught up in the alpha male mystic like Palin. Even made reference to in the article. All we are missing now is the fainting and swooning at events.

These circular firing squads must stop and the fight taken to the real enemy that is the democratic party.

Does that include the birther crap you've been pounding on ad nauseum, or only darts at your guy?

Who knows? I was under the impression Pierson worked for Cruz in 2012 senate campaign while she collected unemployment. Pretty sure she was not “employed” by him when DT hired her. She was never going to be a paid national spokesman for Cruz.
Free country. Who cares? She should work for candidate she is committed to.

Since when do Freepers no like alpha males? Just because Cruz’s voice can only be heard by dogs?
