Well, that is well observed. These people are “professional Christians” who make money as “ agent of the living God” off of absolute lies. I hate them. They will see their day.

What? On Sessions cooperation with Cruz? Or on Trump calling Carson a sociopath. I assumed you were familiar with both but I could grab some quotes if that’s what you’re looking for.

Good song but Trump doesn’t ride fences, he builds walls.

Let it be known that you ask a question long after the answer is known.

A bit of life for the children watching.

If you read the article it says the GOPe ard rallying around Cruz to stop Trump. It never says they are rallying around Cruz to give him the nomination. Surely Cruz knows he is being used.

If Cruz doesn't know he's being played for a fool - it's sad. It also means he's not qualified to be President...

If he knows and he's in on the scam - lying to all of us - then we don't need him or want him.

The timeline should include the Primarys.

Yes. It is important.

I just recently heard that he is hated in the Senate not because he is anti-establishment, but because he is ruthless in his ambition and he jumped for the prize out of turn.

And Cruz's Washington Cartel turned out to be a sham...Cruz is embracing every one of them...

Ted Cruz is going to be a great President.

You're a Romney supporter, I see...

It will take some very nimble footwork to avoid that scenario.

I don't think a non-Trump or non-Cruz nomination is even possible. BTW, Newt agrees with that position.

Trump is going to get somewhere between 1100 and 1300 delegates. Cruz will be a few hundred behind most likely. For Kasich to get the nomination well over 1000 Trump and Cruz delegates are going to have to change their vote. Not in the cards. Converting a couple of hundred Kasich and Rubio votes to Cruz is way, way more likely. That would work for Trump as well but I just don't think those votes are going to go that way. That's mostly gut feel at this point but I'm betting I'm right.

I guess I don’t know to what ‘timeline’ you’re referring.

Basically I just ask a hypothetical - IF Sessions endorsed Cruz - that then Sessions would be considered GOPe by the same reasoning that some now consider Cruz GOPe after getting endorsements from GOPe - when in fact, most of them don’t like Cruz but don’t like Trump even moreso. It’s rather simple to understand without any timeline - unless you have something else in mind??
