You really don’t have a clue about who I support, but I’ll tell you. It is Ted Cruz. Completely and unapologetically. I tolerate Trump because he is a means to an end - my hope is that it will be the end of establishment Republican Leadership and their candidates, principally one Jeb Bush.
There is nothing about Rand Paul I have ever liked, nor will I expect. Regardless, the point with him is moot, along with about a dozen others on the slate I expect.
The point in my comment was to note that there has to be an element of hope and faith in this battle. For me, I have to believe there is a reason why Trump is called to do what he’s doing now. I don’t expect that it has to result in him getting elected.
You’ve obviously listened and watched only what the media has led on about Trump. You don’t do your homework rather you snipe on about “abject pessimism and complete cynicism” when you don’t even know what the context is.
Here’s the real Trump:

When one does their full homework on a candidate beginning with the above link, then they can confidently chide others about “terrible refuges”.
I was a supporter of Ted Cruz long before you and still donate to him. Check it out.
I am now a supporter of TRUZ.
