JimRob has been urging all of us to refocus.

We need a lot of healing on this forum, imho. Way too many of us in our zeal on both sides have been all too ready with the put-downs and insults. It is admirable that we all have that zeal, but it is also very important that most of us also have the ability to temper that zeal. And we should.

My favorite analogy between Cruz and Trump has been the purebred greyhound vs a junk yard dog. The ideal is to have a purebred greyhound, but I’ve fallen into the camp that sees our perimeter is threatened. The beautiful prize-winning greyhound will bark and make a show, and even do his best in a fight, while the ugly battle scarred junk yard dog will flat get it done. At least that is the sincere hope. Sometimes the need of the hour defines what instrument and, no other, is needed.

I join you in your appeal for ALL of us to refocus our energy on the democrats and the destructive policies which have been in place for decades. We have a yuuuuge fight in front of us! And each of us is vastly important to the victorious outcome.

While I have been a Trump supporter from the beginning, I deeply respect my FRiends who are seeking to hold us to that more pure conservative standard. WE STILL NEED THAT!!! .... balanced with practicality in what can be achieved at a given moment.

Above all we must unite. Invective does not have a place in that process.

I can’t speak for the rest of the country, but where I come from we don’t reconcile with liars, cheaters and low-lifes. Or Globalists seeking to destroy the sovereignty of the USA.

Great post.

It is easy to be a conservative in Texas. It takes courage and integrity to be one in NY and CT.

When Freepers understand that they will get why Trump is such a strong candidate and Cruz would have been a weak one.
