Others can ignore Trump's past, and had it been past from decades ago I might be able to as well. But his negative past has been rather recent
Ted Cruz is the standout for me at this point, and has been for awhile now. I gave Walker some serious consideration, but I don't think he is as good as Cruz.
I would vote for Walker though if he won the nomination. Probably would vote for Trump too if he won the nomination, because I will always vote for the lesser of the two evils. Some say, well then you are still voting for evil, but the reality is evil is present in all of mankind. It's just the degree of evil they possess, and the amount of damage they will do.
Thanks for the additional comments.
I agree with your comments. I have withheld votes from Bush and McCain.
I will never vote for a man anywhere near as dirty as McCain. NEVER
As for Cruz, I like the guy too. His comments don’t get as much play as Trump, even when he says the same things. For this reason I have to question if he can win the nomination.
Then also, it bothered me when he said he didn’t back the current trade bill, and then voted for support legislation.
I’m sorry, if I’m against something I don’t take any action that brings it closer to taking place. I avoid it any way I can. So this causes me to think he’s not shooting straight with people like me.
That bothers me a lot.
As much as I dislike McConnell and like that Cruz took him to the woodshed, I would never have voted for the bill in question. McConnell couldn’t have said anything to make me do it.
You know what's a waste of a vote?
Voting for Republicans.
I voted straight Republican in 2014 and they are acting JUST like Democrats.
I think if I'm going to waste my vote, it might as well be for a wild card.
