Wouldn’t that be something. I’d love to get to the point where the RNC has to coalesce behind Cruz in order to get rid of Trump. That will be more enjoyable than watching Trump make them squirm.
You can’t believe Cruz will ever be the nominee. It doesn’t matter what Presidential reds he’s has, he’s not what today’s voters are looking for. If Trump goes, my prediction is Rubio at this point. He’s good-looking, charismatic, and, as so many say, a gifted politician. That translates to he knows how to lie and cheat his way to the top.
If it’s not Trump, it’s not Cruz or Carson.
I see this sentiment expressed on the forum either directly or indirectly. Here's how that works out.
The RNC will never get behind Cruz. Period. He doesn't stand for what they do, and they won't have any part if it.
If Trump is dismissed and Cruz should become the leader in the polls, he will crash and burn during the primary process.
Anyone but Cruz will be nominated.
Folks have learned nothing from 32 years of them not being able to nominate a true Conservative. Not since 1984 have we done it, and even then it was because it was Reagan's second term. The question becomes, why haven't we?
These are the people who vote in all to many of our primaries.
1. Democrats
2. Independents
3. Moderate Republicans
4. Conservative Republicans
Conservatives are merely a slice of the Republican pie. As such they have three groups voting against them to select their nominee. Please recall that Moderate Republicans think the Tea Party members are terrorists. Remember that? John McCain has said it. So did McConnell and Boehner.
Fine. Dump Trump. See what you wind up with.
It will be Carson, Rubio, or Fiorina. Once again we will have snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.
We have a guy out there selling every platform plank of Ronald Reagan. He's drawing tens of thousands of people to our cause. He'll pulling in people across every demographic line. Despite this some folks hope he'll fail.
If he does, so do we and our nation.
This guy is your last chance. He's our last chance.
He draws across demographic lines. Cruz will never draw across demographic lines. He doesn't have the charisma.
Cruz is good, but he'll never be the nominee.
Carson, Bush, Fiorina, Rubio..., they're essentially the same person.
Watch what happens when you go into the primaries without Trump. In 2016 I had hoped I'd have someone to vote for...
Without Trump, that's not happening.
