If you think Trump doesn’t have problems you haven’t been taking an honest look at Trump. The democrats can destroy Trump in the general.
If the “citizenship” is an issue, why has every judge so far to see this issue thrown the case out? Why hasn’t Trump or Grayson brought about the lawsuit they keep threatening if it is such a slam dunk?
The reality is that the Dems will go after EITHER Trump or Cruz in order to get a Clinton or a Sanders in the WH.
You just pouting because Steyn is just destroying you “100%er only small tent” Republicans arguments.
Reagan has words for the #NeverTrump Purity Choir. This idea that if they just keep shouting they will get a 100%er elected to do everything they want is a fools notion.
Reagan:
“A man 75-80% on my side is a valuable friend and ally, not my enemy:
I know this falls on deaf ears with 100%ers but the fact remains, We are a Constitutional Republic that rests on the notion that the people’s Representatives in Government know how to compromise and negotiate.
This feeling that Cruz will ride into DC and dictate the Conservative Media’s 100%er terms to everyone else there is simply wishful thinking. What is more probably is Cruz would be a GOP Carter.
Carter was the same sort of religious political puritan who went to DC and assumed he would dictate his political dogmas to everyone there. The record shows how badly that idea failed.
“Conservative” politicians talk a good game and then go to DC and accomplish nothing. After 30 years of fail, it is time to try another solution. The winning candidate is “GASP” going to have to cut DEALS! And some times those deals require..compromise!!!
Another fail point for the “Principled Conservatives” is they think only as far as the election. Then once they win their purity candidates go to DC and fail against the inertia of the DC/Media political machine. 1994-2000-2010-2014 are all example of where this “Next election” mindset has failed.
Trump is merely the 1st wave of a multi wave assault. Cruz might do for a follow up wave, he is not a 1st wave candidate.Without Trump to lead the way, the Cruz boat would of either been ignored because it was irrelevant, or been shelled into oblivion by the 10s of millions of GOPE attack ads.
The 1st wave job in any assault is to shatter the defenses and open the road for the follow up waves. No matter how flawed you think the vessel is, Trump is the best 1st wave political assault team we have had to hand in my lifetime.
We need to use Trump for all he is worth to shatter the corrupt, “my party right or wrong” mindset that grips vast swaths of the electorate. Break that inertia, get the people thinking outside the party label box and real change is possible. Do not an we slide into a stagnate European style decline that will not end in my lifetime. Cruz shares that agenda point but is not as well equipped by background and media following to achieve that break through as Trump
We either win this now or we have little chance of ever doing it again politically. Once we win we must relentlessly stay on the attack election wave after election wave until we are dead.
I am really not willing to leave this fight to my kids and grand-kids. We have let the ship of state drift since Reagan in the hands of the “smart people”. We failed and most redeem that failure.
This is our generation’s “go” time
Again, don’t respond with a per-porgamed attack bot talking point. Stop, read, think and response to the point for a change.
