May I, as a Ted Cruz supporter, just step in here for a minute and explain why Donald Trump, as Republican nominee for president, will win a landslide election victory over Hillary and actually be a welcome alternative to the kind of leadership America has experienced for the last 27 years?
I don’t care what the national polls say now about a matchup between Trump and Clinton. I am old enough to remember vividly what the polls between Ronald Reagan and Jimmy Carter looked like in 1980 at this point in the presidential campaign. They suggested Reagan had no chance to win. He trailed Carter in the polls by double digits. He went on to carry 44 states that year, including New York and California – 49 states four years later.
That is very close to what I expect Trump to do to Hillary if he becomes the nominee.
Why do I think that?

So much uncertainty surrounding Trump. Still a much option than Team Hillary.

I believe this.
There will be enough cross-over Dems voting for Trump that I don’t think it will be close.
I feel sorry for his girls. Seems Trump is actually less of a hypocrite than Cruz. Smelled that one coming a long time ago. Trump has major flaws, major ones, but they are out in the open. Besides, it’s easier for me to trust a person who doesn’t already have their snout in the D.C. trough.
Im a Trump supporter and wont wallow in this filth. Man up!
It’s only filth if not true. If true it blows the “principled” conservative to pieces.
Maybe.
I don’t support Trump or trust him.
But I firmly believe that a major source of Trump’s popularity is that he never apologizes and hits back at anyone that strikes at him.
All of that $500 million spent ‘fighting’ him has, in effect, been nothing but more ads FOR Trump.
Has Cruz commented on any of this?
No candidate has been able to withstand that kind of abuse. It is a testament to Trump’s massive strength.
We are no longer force fed the information by people who buy ink by the barrel. The best phrase about Washington, “Who are those people/”
Trump will win 35 states, it won’t even be close.
Hillary is a thoroughly despicable human being.
Obama could at least appear to be likeable.
•Seal the border, build a wall and enforce immigration laws. This is without a doubt one of the most important priorities for America’s safety and security. If we don’t do this, we will cease to be a sovereign, self-governing republic in the next generation.
•If the Republican Congress sends Trump a bill repealing Obamacare, he will sign it.
•If the Republican Congress sends Trump a budget that cuts spending, taxes and regulation, he will sign it.
•If the Republican Congress gets serious about freezing the debt and balancing the budget, Trump will approve.
•Trump will take on and defeat ISIS.
Does anyone really doubt any of these assumptions?
You mean other than the Republican congress repealing Obamacare, cutting spending, freezing the debt, and balancing the budget?
Yet even with these revelations and his total sellout to the establishment the Cruzers will still say he’s the most “conservative” Republican in the race.
These allegations are so explosive that I would not expect him to comment. There is a media blackout. What tells me there could be legs to this is that the National Enquirer has put this story out there and no one is threatening lawsuits for defamation.
As savvy of a lawyer as Cruz is you’d think he would be all over this cleaning up.
Trump isn’t Reagan. He’s nothing like Reagan. The make up of the country is far different now than it was 36 years ago. Trying to make this comparison is pure ignorance.
I'm with you.
Was it filth when it was Gary Hart?
I don’t pretend to know if this information is true or not.
I have a hard time thinking a paper would stick it’s neck out this far without something to back it up.
We’re talking about a viable presidential contender. Whether I think his chances are non-existent or not, he is a recognized contender.
I’m taking a neutral stand as this plays out, but I too am sorry the Cruz girls will have to endure this. I’m sorry Heidi does.
If it’s not true, it is a shameful thing to do.
If it is, I take no pleasure in it. What will be will be.
If this is true, Cruz is now going to out-Clinton Clinton.
Remember “ I never had sexual relations with that woman Monica Lewinski blah,blah,blah...”
