Trump is opposed to homosexual marriage....

Opposed? Did you not even read the article?

"It's time to move on" is in SUPPORT of same sex marriage.

Sheesh!

All in all, this is probably why I’m still likely to vote Cruz over Trump in the primary. But it will obviously depend on the scenario by the time my state’s primary hits. If Cruz is still hopelessly low in the polls, and Trump is the only option to counter one of the GOP-E creeps, then I’ll invariably go Trump.

Whatever the case, none of this really matters all that much to me. As long as the depravity fag-marriage is legally and/or morally embraced by America, I’m fine with seeing this sicko nation go down in flames and die.

You sure read differently than I do. Trump does not support homosexual marriage. I heard him say so. He says that fighting that battle in this campaign is wasted time.

I agree. Beating the GOP-E and the democrats for the presidency is the only way to get in position to fight back on other fronts.

Why did George Washington not launch a frontal assault on the British at the beginning of the Revolutionary War?

The Government at any level has NO business being involved in marriage, that is up to the individual churches.

Please refrain from repeating this liberal lie. It makes you sound like a liberal.

WHO says marriage is strictly a religious matter? Are murder, rape and crime religious issues also? Since these issues are Biblically based also, should we leave them up to individual churches also?

To hell with the court’s decision.

Pack it, add new seats and fill them with conservatives. That’s sounds like the kind of thing that would be right up the alley of fantasy conservative hero Donald Trump. Right? Right? I thought he was supposed to be a dragon-slayer.

I guess he just doesn’t care that queers have used the constitution to wipe their butts.

A president can just wave his hand and make or ignore “the law” now! Duh! Law means whatever the president wants it to mean.

These are the people who would rather nominate McCain or Romney again, than EVER go off the GOPe plantation!

And there are those of us that support Cruz, who is actually a Conservative, and realize that Trump is just mouthing the words, this week.

Is Trump opposed to same sex marriage?

No. He said it's "time to move on".

Does he support SSM?

Yes. He went to a queer wedding. You said "He says that fighting that battle in this campaign is wasted time."

How much more clearer can Trump be on this issue? And why do you fail to grasp this? Trump has surrenderd on the issue. He (once again) is useless as a conservative and has no gravitas here.

When Trump/Cruz goes live, they will be unbeatable. That is the rosiest or scenarios and when Ted tells me I can trust DT to hold the lines that MUST be held, then I agree - unbeatable.

That is the ONLY way I could ever conceive of voting for Trump. And I have to do a real gut check to that.

It’s getting fun now to watch the haters, especially here, drive up Trump’s numbers.

As I just posted, the only way I could vote for Trump, is if Cruz is his Veep, and swears to the man's street creds.

Trump needs to understand that there is a difference between the conservative position and the GOPe party line.

Be careful - you will get flamed as a RINO or worse by the Trumpkins if you even imply that The Donald is anything less than 100% pure conservative...

I have no illusions, I am not wholly sold.

I do like what I hear, every day to see the narrative set by Trump, to see the nation being educated about the illegal travesties, to see the concept of anchor babies and the fence being actually discussed and reported are things I'm cheering about, and so should all of us.

I know Trump is not reflexively conservative, I know he will do some things we won't be happy about.

I also know he's the one out front in the most important issues of our day. He's the one who understands how to take the media on, he's the one who is paving the way for a win in 2016. I like that, all of us should like that.

Will Trump self destruct? Not sure. Will someone else catch fire? Not sure, but I love watching the death knell of Jeb, and this is it.

Would I rather have Cruz? You bet. As I have been saying for some weeks, it is Trump's race to win or lose now, because he has positioned himself perfectly, and not for any other reason. Throwing Jorge Ramos out will get him lots of bad press, and he's going to rise in the polls, he knows it, but somehow the GOPe doesn't, and quite honestly, the DNCe is not happy either.

If you look at my posts over the last several months you will see that I have been purposely silent about the GOP candidates other than the ones that I reject outright. A lot of this is because I know it's two early to know who will have the momentum come primary time; eight years ago Rudy was way out in front and he was gone by Super Tuesday, twelve years ago it looked like Howard Dean was a lock for the Democrats and his campaigned collapsed on the night of the Iowa Caucus.

As it stands right now, Trump is pretty much running on one issue and it is an issue that has been around for decades.

From a practical standpoint, getting an amendment passed recognizing traditional marriage would be FAR EASIER than building a wall at the Mexican border and deporting all of the illegals.

Look at the makeup of the Supreme Court and their decisions over the past decade, do you think that there's a chance in hell that they would rule that anchor babies aren't citizens under the 14th Amendment? Then there are property issues, many illegals now own property in the US and, while they may be here illegally, the property was acquired legally. Is there a plan to deal with that? I don't support amnesty and I never will; we can certainly build a wall to keep more out, but I don't think that there's any way to get rid of the majority of those that are here.

What people need to be made aware of is the two-fold role that abortion has played in this:
1. America has a manual labor shortage that simply didn't exist four decades ago. It's not that the illegals are doing the jobs that Americans won't do, it's that they're doing the jobs that there aren't enough Americans to do. Talk to the owner of any construction company, there are many jobs (jobs that pay pretty well) that it is impossible to hire Americans for. Go back in history, the problems with illegal aliens began roughly a decade after Roe v. Wade and two decades after the Sexual Revolution began. There was a demand for labor and the illegals came and met the demand.
2. Social Security and Medicare are classic Ponzi schemes; however, most people fail to understand that Ponzi schemes WILL WORK as long as there is a steadily expanding pool of new people to pay into it. Until the 1970s we had that, but with the Sexual Revolution and abortion the population growth began to drop drastically. Now, the illegal aliens filled the gap in the labor pool, but they're paid under the table and don't pay any payroll tax. That's the elephant in the room that none of the politicians will talk about, we need more people to fund the Ponzi schemes.

The real problem with the presidential race is that the Bush family and the GOPe have decimated conservatism over the past quarter century, we have no bench to speak of. GWB didn't have a single person in his administration who could run for president. Trump never would have entered the race if there was a strong pool of candidates, for that matter Cruz probably wouldn't have either (Cruz has the knowledge and he's a real conservative, but he isn't perceived as having the experience).

The best thing the GOP has going for it right now is that Hillary is imploding and anyone can beat Biden. The most critical thing for the GOP is to get Jeb, Christie and Rand Paul out of the race.

Polls are ALL propaganda used to drive results, not measure opinions. Stop saying Cruz hasn’t caught on. That’s what the propagandists pollsters want you to say, right up until Jeb gets the nomination.

Because he has said that he supports traditional marriage. I heard it with my own ears. Say what you want, but when you start with the wrong facts, you end up with the wrong conclusion.
