The people on my non-FR Trump groups are NOT die-hard conservatives.
There’s a lot of young people who are socially libertarian. Many Sanders supporters who’ve flipped to Trump. Democrats who’ve switched parties to vote for Trump. Many, many first time voters.
They do not care about abortion. They are not religious at all. Some of them support Trump despite his stance on 2A.
These people are not going to support Cruz. Ever.
Already, word’s getting out that Cruz is starting to get establishment backing. Believe it or not, Lindsy Graham started talking positive about Cruz.
And these Trump supporters are screaming, “See! He’s just another establishment shill!”
If Cruz gets the nomination, none of these people will show up. They’re the ‘crossover’ demographic and they’re here because of Trump. Not because of the GOP or a sudden love of conservatism.
Trump.
“If Cruz gets the nomination, none of these people will show up. They’re the ‘crossover’ demographic and they’re here because of Trump.”
I said it last year:
If Trump’s not there, these people walk. One rambling 20 minute sermon/speech by Cruz and you can kiss the whole lot goodbye.
They are here for the economy, not to get saved. Sorry to break it to these guys.
