“...Cruz (R-TX) looks poised to upset him in the pivotal Iowa caucuses next month.”

I think not. Why does Cruz support a brokered convention to keep Trump out?

So the turkey who wrote this thing has terrible diction, no notion of what the word “nihilism” means and to top it all off, he’s a blogger.

Three strikes.

“He gone.”

If you can't stand the thought..

The bad news is that if...

For one thing...

For better or worse...

That last statement isn't an exaggeration...

nihilism

noun

1. total rejection of established laws and institutions.

2. anarchy, terrorism, or other revolutionary activity.

3. total and absolute destructiveness, especially toward the world at large and including oneself: the power-mad nihilism that marked Hitler's last years.

4. Philosophy.

a. an extreme form of skepticism: the denial of all real existence or the possibility of an objective basis for truth.

b. nothingness or nonexistence.

5. (sometimes initial capital letter) the principles of a Russian revolutionary group, active in the latter half of the 19th century, holding that existing social and political institutions must be destroyed in order to clear the way for a new state of society and employing extreme measures, including terrorism and assassination.

6. annihilation of the self, or the individual consciousness, especially as an aspect of mystical experience.

The author is apparently a congenital idiot.

Definition #5 perfectly describes the Progressive Movement though.

So Cruz is simultaneously a nihilist and ideologically narrow-minded? You’ve got to be impressed by that.

Alternatively, the author likes to throw out scare words that he doesn’t really understand. “Cruz is icky” is the gist. Got it.

"For one thing, Cruz has proved himself to be far more ideologically narrow-minded than Trump."

No, you dumbass socialist, Cruz is a true Constitutional advocate that supports your rights to say such nonsense. That is as open-minded as it gets. You so-called intellectuals have NO idea how many have fought for your freedom to espouse your unworkable ideals that have always failed. Keep reading your socialist screeds and thinking how you can make this nation better through your communist ideology. Then explain to me why not ONE commune worked back in the 1960's or why ALL communist societies eventually fail. Go ahead Mr.-I-got-a-doctorate-degree and know all.

I lived it and saw ALL fail, you miserable prick. You do know that North Korea is still totalitarian? Want an airplane ticket?

So now Salon has joined with the GOPe in its effort to elect Cruz (as theorized by some as to why Rush and Levin have “turned” on Trump). Kooky I know. But that seems to be what some are going with.

So, Trump supporters, there you have it.

If you want to vote for the guy who pisses off all the right people, you will vote for Ted Cruz.

If Cruz has Salons vipers wetting themselves, then he is on the right track.

Lehigh went down the drain when they changed their team name from the “Lehigh Engineers” to the “Lehigh Mountain Hawks”.

The bad news is that if Cruz succeeds and ultimately becomes the Republican nominee, he will prove to be far worse than Trump himself.

Cruz is my guy, but I can go with Trump if he wins.

I love the exploding heads all over cable TV.
