Actually, it would be a second party. At the present time, there is only one political party.
They wear blinkers and never see what they don’t want to see.
But Marco looks so cute in his big boy suit. And have you heard, his personal story is “compelling”? His dad fled Castro (two years before Castro took over).
I knew many people who had invested years in HP. I heard their horror stories of her as a person and a leader. It was heartbreaking for many of them watching what she did to the company and also their stocks! So I’ve had my opinion of her shaped by years of empathetic misery.
‘I have learned that revealing truth to them is pointless.
They donât have the mental faculties to differentiate between facts and trolling.
Very strange group...’
I don’t know if it’s lack of mental faculties, Cruz-colored-blinders, or what. I just know they cannot be reasoned with. Sooner or later—usually sooner—they explode with ad hominem attacks and insults, and that is the end of any attempted rational discourse with them.
I’m glad, then, that she seems to be out of the race.
As far as I am concerned, Trump is a snake in the grass, and when he changes stripes again, will be as bad as Hilary.
I for one will support the most "CONSERVATIVE" candidate.
You can keep your liberal one.
“And then there are people like me that like Cruz and Trump.”
Ditto.
This is the kind of crap that can turn off Trump’s supporters.
IMO Trump and Cruz go together. My preference would be Trump leading at president to lead and Cruz under him to help him navigate.
I want Trump to break on his opponents. But I don’t see Cruz as an opponent and too many of the trump supporters enjoy gloating and ridiculing Cruz and his supporters.
I’m pretty sure you or one of you all will ridicule me and feel great about it. It’s as predictable as a child. But I’m telling you ... that childish behavior is turning away some of us who want trump to win.
I like them both and wish posters could just be happy that good guys are beating the establishment.
Double ditto
Good for you, yes there are lots of us here/everywhere
I can relate to the people that have taken sides though. I was ALL IN for Sarah Palin, I loved her still do, but anybody that was a threat at all I did not warm up to them. I could not understand why they did not for some reason see what I saw/see.
Not that I am less involved, I really LOVE Cruz, but Sarah was once in a generation, could probably never muster that kind of passion again.
Trump on the other hand I love watching and listening to him, he has some great ideas, I love his thoughts on negotiators ...
these people are horrible, you would not want them for dinner but they are terrific negotiators, and who do we have now? Caroline Kennedy
The things he says about trade with China etc, he is so good on his feet, when I am watching him I dont want it to end
Cruz my first choice Trump 2nd... more than you wanted to know
I hope they dont get nasty with each other, Rush and Mark warned Trump to not go nasty on Cruz, so we shall see

Trump is going to wrap this nomination up by mid April as there is no real competition. He’s looking over his shoulder at Cruz and Rubio duking it out for a distant second while he cruises to the finish line.
That’s silly. If Cruz is the best candidate then HE should be the one dismantling the GOP, the media and breaking down the walls of Political correctness. The fact that Trump is the one doing this single handedly is opening a lot of eyes. No one else has had the guts Trump has jad
Your original complaint to me was more reasoned that I had thought. I was out waiting for a hair-cut FReeping on my iPad and realized you sent a note on a different thread than I had first thought.
My response to you was not accurate, based on that mistake on my part.
You have a right to dump on my Crewz Helmut posts. They are meant to tweak to a certain extent. You will have to realize that as a Trump supporter I read how Cruz is now in the driver’s seat (or something akin to that) over and over, so this is my way of saying, “I don’t think so...”
I had been involved on another thread, and your post seemed to fit in there more than here, so I mistook your complaint as having been posted on the other thread.
I apologize for that.
If you would rather not support Trump based on my comments, I completely understand. If you think my tweaking of you guys is bad, I’ve had enough homosexual, Hitler related, and Leftist oriented insults to last me a lifetime.
Later...
That seems to be my fate as well. I know what you mean.
Are you new here? If not, then it’s obvious you haven’t read many of the posts on here. The Cruz supporters are just - if not more so- nasty than Trump supporters. How about chiding them for their nasty, childish behavior? Most of us just hit back when hit. And, believe me, they do their fair share. I could name names, but won’t right now - it isn’t important, but what is important is that you deal an even hand to both sides, rather than going off on Trump supporters as the “bullies.” It simply isn’t true.
