Way too much venom and vicious infighting in the conservative ranks.

I think Mister Trump is an inarticulate, unqualified weasel.

That said, I would vote for him if he were the GOP nom (NOT an indy, it must be clear.)

And as low as my regard is for 9/11 truther and Planned Parenthood aficionado trump, I maintain a high regard for the trump supporters hereabouts. (That said, I get some very nasty insults directed in my direction. I learned to ignore all those wayy back in basic training.)

We are all on the Conservative team.

At this point, my worry is not that my candidate will not win the nom.

My major worry is that someone will run as an indy, and split the vote, and hand Hillary our fine country for her to wreck.

“And yet, you yahoos call him establishment. Confuse yourself much?”

Nope, unlike you, The Obtuse One, we have street brains, and know that Lyin Ted is in Goldman Sach’s underwear.

LOL

Do you regret calling him a ‘liar’ on the Senate floor?

No, I just regret that he lied and it needed to be pointed out.

Some things are not worth saying. I liked it when Ted did that, I liked it a LOT. But I don’t believe for a second it did the cause of advancing conservatism any good whatsoever. Here’s a great article about it;

You need to read this article;

Honesty versus Brutal Frankness
http://rebirthofreason.com/Articles/Stolyarov/Honesty_versus_Brutal_Frankness.shtml

You end up harming yourself more than anyone else by saying things that though true harm your own self interests in a dishonest way. Like this;

.Ted Cruz talks about watching hardcore porn with his daughters in the audience (at the family town hall) .
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ML6lpDP8c20

T. CRUZ: He would be someone that you would be a fool not to look at seriously. He’s very, very talented. And, you know, you asked if Marco and I are friends. Let me tell you a story.

So last year, I wrote a book called “A Time for Truth.” And in the book, one of the chapters is talking about the year I spent as a law clerk at the Supreme Court. And it describes — the chapter begins with me watching pornography on the Internet with Sandra Day O’Connor, which was a bit of a bizarre experience.

(LAUGHTER)

It was the first of the Internet porn cases to go to the court, and the court librarians were showing the justices what the Internet was, and they’d pull it up, and the story I told, I was clerking for Chief Justice Rehnquist. They paired the chief justice and Justice O’Connor and their law clerks were in this little room looking at this computer screen that pulls up hardcore porn. And Justice O’Connor — I still remember, she leaned forward and she squinted and said, “Oh, my!”

But the Marco piece of this — so the book comes out and there were some — you know, reporters thought that was a funny story, so they wrote about that story. And I’m on a plane and Marco texts me and says, “Holy cow, you watched porn? Our oppo researchers missed that.”

(LAUGHTER)

Now that was funny. And listen, he’s got a good sense of humor. I laughed when he sent that text.

What a contrast to the Trump family town hall.

Clearly, my good FRiend, my issue is with Mister trump (weasel, etc.), and not with his very fine conservative supporters, with whom I will agree on nearly every major issue, and who I choose not to insult.

What Bill says in the tweets quoted below is so true. It's why Ted can't comprehend the strategic mistake he makes doubling down on something like calling McConnel a liar. That is NOT what leaders do. And it's why, like Donald JR says, politicians like Ted and their ilk "wouldn't last five minutes in business".

Trump is a deductive thinker - he begins with the goal and works back from there - no wasted motion - only what contributes to the result.— Bill Mitchell (REAL) (@mitchellvii) March 21, 2016



Guys like Cruz are inductive thinkers. They are so obsessed with the ideological front end, the actual result is an afterthought.— Bill Mitchell (REAL) (@mitchellvii) March 21, 2016

Not sure this will play out as forecast but the public
seems to be souring on the Cruz.

Why is it courageous?

They can’t take you out back and shoot you. He can’t be kicked out of the Senate. And on top of that Mitch is still majority leader.

In the end it seems like Cruz supporters hold this up like it was the most incredible event in the history of congress.

i’m voting for Trump btw.

Why is this article posted as bad.

the poster never posts anything positive about ted, so it must be intended as an insult.

i’m not saying it’s an incredible feat, but why is the poster interpreting it s bad in the comments

As Trump's noted many times - Rubio called Cruz a liar. And he is. br>

65K Coloradans voted--they just voted against Trump. That's 11 elections in a row we've won.

I think petty jealousy drives a lot of it. You don’t get to where your private company is worth 10B and you sign 22k paychecks on the FRONT being what all these people call Trump. It’s would be impossible. Like Donald JR says “politicians like Ted and his ilk “wouldn’t last five minutes in business.”

They haven’t got a clue.

” Like Donald JR says “politicians like Ted and his ilk “wouldn’t last five minutes in business.””

As a guy in business for over 30 years, I absolutely agree.
