Your story sounds similar to mine.

A month ago, I preferred Cruz.

I was persuaded by Trump to change, but the Cruzers helped me make that switch. It's an extraordinary group.

Cruz is fine, however I take exception with many of the rabid Cruzers (as opposed to Cruz supporters).

My story is nearly the opposite.
I've supported Cruz since before he announced his candidacy.
When Trump came along shouting the very things Cruz has been fighting for I liked him a whole lot. Definitely my #2 pick.

Then I came back to this forum to cheat on the success ‘our side's was having by beating the establishment with a one-two punch to the head.

Aaaaand then I got attacked by Trump supporters for supporting Cruz.

I couldn't believe it. “He's greasy and no one likes him” -that was before the NBC comments from trump.

Then it went full on NBC combined with ‘greasy’ and other, non policy based assaults. It was all BS and invective. I was shocked.

Then Iowa.... The debate dodging seemed like a really bad thing to me. The threats, assaults on personality used by Trump and echoed with absolute glee by his supporters... I get angry, but really?

At this moment my heart has hardened. I will not hold my nose and vote again. I will write in Cruz if I must.

I don't know how DT can change my mind at this point. Trump's army here on FR has taken the negative aspects of his way of doing things and showed me what 4years of his leadership will do to the conservative message.

If what I've seen here is writ large by electing trump, the constitution is done for and we are looking at imperial presidents until the next civil war.
