LOL Still proclaiming third place is a win. And now the Ick factor is an advantage.

When is he going to tell us that lying is the most important skill you can have as president?

You MUST be kidding.

He isn’t just not likable, he is loathed.

Nixon was a mental giant. Cruz ain’t even close.

Nixon did not rail against his Party at every chance. Cruz does.

This is laughable.

While Jennifer Rubin is not the first person I would go to for political commentary, she does make a couple of good points. The idea that circumstances existing in the country at a given time have a great deal to do with how a candidate is perceived is a valid one. Nixon following the relatively tranquil Eisenhower years was much different that Nixon following the turbulent Johnson years. I would argue that if times were now as when President Reagan left office, Mr. Trump would not have a chance.

On the subject of Senator Cruz likability, it is interesting that earlier in this campaign, he was soundly criticized by his current chief opponent for being unable to get along with anyone in the current republican leadership. The fact that no one in the establishment would endorse or support him was a primary reason to reject him while Mr. Trump’s ability to work with and make deals with the establishment leadership on both republican and democrat sides was a major assets and a chief reason to support him.

Just lately, that has reversed and it is now a bad thing that Senator Cruz is supported by and has shown an ability to work with those same establishment people who his opponent formerly embraced. Now, that Mr. Trump is being opposed by the establishment, that has become a good thing.

I think that it could be said that in politics, neither candidates nor us supporters are exactly consistently consistent.
