When you say so many other cases - there were only 9 cases. The two big losers I just cited leave the balance at 7. We can go through those in detail as well. But Cruz's arguments that states can rescind their contracts or leave someone to rot in jail after acknowledging that the state erred go to the character and lack of sensibilities of the individual - Cruz.
There are principled liberals. What we are seeing is an unscrupulous individual who will say anything and do anything to attain the right to do the bidding of his masters and overseers (the party elite, not the taxpayers).
. . . or maybe the tenth amendment matters.
Interesting analysis on Brutus and on post #36. Thanks for that information.
last time I checked the sum of appearance by all other Republican candidates before the supreme court was ZERO.
You’ve got that right. I almost welcome Cruz going down hard in November. I wish it was a routine election so this creep could get that smirk ripped off his face.
Reference mark.
Apparently the English have as firm a grasp on American politics as we have on their game of cricket.
I see Trump as already planning for, and preparing his voters for, a third party.

Didn’t work out so great for Ralph Nader.
#35 is a good posting. However, I disagree that Carson, Christie and Rubio are conservatives.

10 minute video explaining our Republic vs. a Democracy. A bit long, but interesting. I get a kick out of the Trump supporters using Ben Franklin’s “A Republic if you can keep it” as a cry against the “unfair” lack of a primary nomination in Colorado.
Beware of the Kool-Aid because it will be offered.
Maybe Trump is smarter than that, and maybe he’s a get even sort of person. He has turned the Republican world upside down.

A smile for you!
I get your point but I would still challenge freepers to line up the 16 former GOP candidates in an ideological order.
How much did trump attack them.
The more conservative they are the more he attacked them.
I think Christie is pretty liberal and that makes him a good lieutenant in the trump army for New York values.
Is it more radical to return to principles the Founders considered America to be or to accept the changes we presently have seen which do not agree with these principles?
If the former, Ted is not radical at all.
And I do not think conservatism, by definition, is radical.
to put the term ‘radical’ in front of ‘conservatism’ is an oxymoron.
like saying a ‘gorgeous’ Hillary. Can’t exist.
“A lot of critics have written unpleasant articles about his face. In fact, it’s hard to think of a candidate who has attracted such mean and spiteful commentary.”
This line above made me laugh. Is this guy for real??
Un-freakin-believable
Sorry to say, these people are losing it. Wishing they could be honest is a wasted wish.
