Good answer. Good answer. I like the way you think. I'm going to be watching you.

Trump’s popularity with college kids doesn’t surprise me. I teach college. They all know him. Ted Cruz and Scott Walker can only dream (no pun intended) of this kind of support from this age group.
Go, Trump, GO!!
Go, Cruz, GO!!
FUBO, FUMR (Mitt Romney but applies equally to amnesty pimpus Marcus Rubio), FUJB, FUGOPe!!
It happens every presidential election cycle.
Look back at some of the mass BANs by JR.
The board does get heated. Tempers flair. People get banned. People make grandstand Opuses or Opi.
Gotta wear asbestos underware during those times.
Last election a Medical Team was on standby to tend to all those wounds and splinters of FReepers jumping from one crashing political bandwagon to another.
But the real stuff hasn’t even started yet. That will be around January when the primaries start. We will see a rash of candidate-preference bot-posts in nearly every thread and the bashing to those who oppose one candidate or another.
Hang on.
I like you but you exaggerate how it was.
It’s my assumption that there’s some sort of budding alliance or at least a truce between the two. A lot of synergy there, the one is strong where the other is weak and vice versa. We could do worse than Trump/Cruz or Cruz/Trump, although I suspect the latter wouldn’t be likely at all.
Yes to your entire post.
>>Mitt Romney but applies equally to amnesty pimpus Marcus Rubio<<
And Jeb.
I don’t despise Jeb for being a Bush — and anyone who knee-jerks against Bush for the name is inane — I just think Jeb is an amnesty-seeking eGOPer who stands for nothing and will fall for anything.
Have people around here ever seen the movie “Back To School” with Rodney Dangerfield?
The GOP establishment sees Trump as Thornton Mellon. The kids like him because he says what he likes, has confidence etc. he was the underdog on campus. He wasn’t a part of the intellectual college elitists whom he embarrassed. He flashes his bucks around because he was a very rich and successful business man, was unapologetic and loved life.
Cruz is like his son. Smart, not snotty and likes his Dad because he knows his Dad is a lot deeper than what people think he is. Dad isn’t polished in the way the intellectual elites are, but he knows Dad is also smart and a very effective individual. More so than the snobs.
When I watch this election cycle so far, I think of this and it makes me chuckle.
I think you’ve just changed my perspective on this election cycle entirely, LOL.

Obviously you have seen the movie! LOL
Yeah, old Thornto wreck their whole snitty lofty party.
He sat down at the table filled with canapes and put a whole plate of them on a bun. Then popped open a brewski!
You can tell from the articles that G Will and his buddies pen about the horrors of Trump that they are totally mortified. LOL
Bet they luvvvvved tose kiddie helicopter rides today!
That was so funny. I am laughing as I sit here.
Getting the low-information voters and the university propagandized voters with substantive rationale.
HOORAY Trump…revisiting their...
