I was told yesterday that Trump is a liberal Democrat. My reply:

Trump supports H1B visas— he even defended it in a debate as a way for him to get employees for his businesses— so you’ve got nothing there.

Cruz’s support of Corker was a great way to attack the government of Iran which is evil. Cruz also passed legislation specifically keeping an iranaian ambassador out of the US. Those with doubts about Cruz on Iran should watch this 2015 floor speech:

Free trade is a conservative value and Cruz has sought reforms of the bill that protect American interests in the TPA which is separate from TPP.

Cruz put to death an illegal immigrant murderer named Jose Medellin. He did not give Jose a teddy bear or a soccer ball before the State of Texas put him to death based on the legal work of Cruz before the Supreme Court.

Cruz did not lie about Carson. CNN did lie about Carson. Trump lied about Cruz lying and that habit has never stopped. Cruz also apologized to Carson for not doing something to stop the repeat of CNN information. Trump never apologizes because he is never wrong and never needs forgiveness.

I am not hearing your crickets.

I hear you losing your argument.

“I thought that’s why Conservatives look to the record to determine a candidate’s Conservatism.”

There’s lots of great conservatives here. The problem is you are saying we have to have career politicians so we can see their votes. That’s not what the founding fathers had in mind.

Yes, prayer is definitely in order.

I too pray for Trump’s safety and that of his family.

I looked on the Craigslist boards - locals don’t want those TEMP SERVICE jobs. They want steady jobs. Do your research.

At this point, there’s already enough just on Cruz’s campaign of lies and dirty tricks to fill a large book. Ditto on the parliamentary and other sneaky maneuvers he’s made in the Senate to work with Obama on implementing TPA and TPP, and his brazen attempt to quadruple to 500,000 the number of H1B visas-—these are the “good” jobs, the STEM jobs. In a Cruz presidency, within a year all of the STEM jobs would belong to Indians.

Reagan did the biggest amnesty ever done.

Bush did not do amnesty.

I am always civil but I do disagree which I believe is my right.

Cruz is the best candidate running with regard to the values of free republic.

John Roberts should be a quick confirm

Not a quote from Robert's but an editorial from Cruz

You say this, but what do you base it on? Everything Obama wanted was funded by this Republican congress.

A Constitutional lawyer, and former Solicitor General not suing for slander.....hmmmm........

Carson HIMSELF referred to himself as having a pathological temper.

"He wrote a book and in the book, he said terrible things about himself," Trump said of Carson. "He said that he's pathological and he's got basically pathological disease ... I don't want a person that's got pathological disease."

Biggest liar -- Cruz v. Clinton. Subjective assessments (honest opinions) are not considered slander

"Once again, defamation is a false statement of fact. For this reason, a statement of opinion cannot be defamatory." http://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/privileges-defenses-defamation-cases.html

Care to try again????

Trump met with Carson and he and Carson made amends.

Free trade is a conservative value.

Cruz pushed reforms to TPP and TPA is not TPP.

The corker amendment is an anti-iran bill. No one has a stronger position against Iran than Cruz

http://www.c-span.org/video/?c4550258/senator-ted-cruz-iran-nuclear-agreement

Cruz pushed the poison pill to Gang of 8 that helped kill Rubio and Shumers plan for amnesty.

Trump funded key figures in the congress who supported amnesty.

You said that Bush was a fine conservative.

Then you praised Ted for defeating the Bush administration.

It’s amazing what Cruz-ade does to a man’s brain.

I think I am right.

Trump bullies people with lawsuits.

I don’t respect that kind of billionaire style of ruling others.

Slandering them and knowing that slander is an opinion doesn’t change my view.

What trump does slandering conservatives while letting people like Hillary pass with his admiration that she “would make a good president” is absurd.

You started this with your insults of Trump supporters and their reasons for supporting him. Perhaps you should rethink your approach to people and come down from your ivory tower. Take your micro aggression elsewhere.

No, it doesn't. I am happy to look to past accomplishment without political office - Otherwise Cruz himself would have a woefully short record.

That’s not what the founding fathers had in mind.

I disagree - the political class formed very early on...

And frankly, I don't care. What matters is the record.
