Yes, Cruz. For me Cruz or Trump. I’ll vote for either in the general. To me, Trump has the fire to light up the system. To kick butt and take names. I see Trump as a wrecking ball. He more closely mirrors my feelings toward the establishment.

Cruz came out first and I was excited for him. If he had come out with fire and brimstone toward illegal immigration as Trump did, things might be different.

To me, illegal immigration is the first most issue. As Trump says, without borders we have no country.

Trump may turn out to be a lying blowhard. If so, how is that different from all the other broken promises Republicans have delivered?

>>To me, Trump has the fire to light up the system.

I thought so too back in June. But then I started listening to him - and looking into his history of behavior to discern and vet his character.

The problem is Trump’s “fire” unfortunately seems to be rooted in what CS Lewis identified as “The Poison of Subjectivism”.

When Trump’s historical behavior is examined - there’s unfortunately no discernible moral framework that can be seen.

And the fact that so many “conservatives” have been brainwashed/desensitized into believing ( or at least behaving as if they believe) an amoral POTUS is not a problem just serves to illustrate how far towards DEMORALIZATION American culture has been successfully, strategically, subverted.
