Move on. Nothing to see here.

Consider the source:

"Ross is not just a Washington Post reporter working as a Democrat operative, she is a Washington Post reporter working as a sleazy Democrat operative..

Republicans have long believed the Washington Post is out to discredit and disqualify their candidates and for good reason. Janell Ross (whose Twitter feed is a swamp of extreme-leftism), however, marks a new low in the Post sleazy and irresponsible jihad against the Right."

This is NOT AN ISSUE! Trump NEVER criticized Cruz’s religion....and he was RIGHT.

“n Cuba right now, Protestant and Protestant Evangelical churches are experiencing rapid membership growth.”

EXACTLY...before recently there were few EVANGELICALS in Cuba. FACT, as you’ve been show a dozen times. Most protestants would object to being referred to as ‘evangelical’, btw.

The level of willing, conscious disconnect of some Donald Trump supporters here is really amazing.

It’s more than clear that their guy is no friend of conservatives or conservatism and is taking a open-hand slap at the best Constitutional conservative Christian candidate the Republican Party has fielded in God only knows how long.

But since people tend to double down when they’re caught out, they just whistle past the graveyard.

Is there some big surprise here. It is an election campaign. People throw stuff out there. Just like the person that posted this is obviously campaigning. I get it. You don’t like Trump. Did you consider skywriting also?

The author has an agenda- the article makes an argument in furtherance of the agenda– here, her belief that a faction of conservatives are bigoted.

I believe Trump is trying to help Cruz in Iowa and elsewhere. The first effort was taking down Carson. Carson had the majority of Evangelical support, and presented a problem for Cruz. Trump removed the roadblock, saving Cruz from the potentially hazardous task of having to attack Carson. There was no benefit for trump, who was bettered positioned if Cruz and Carson continued to split the faith vote in Iowa and in the South

In this instance, Trump waving a Bible while questioning Cruz’s faith based on his ancestry, is a tactic likely viewed unfavorably by most Evangelicals. Cruz is invulnerable as to the issue of his faith, he has the endorsements of hundreds of Evangelical leaders. If Trump truly wished to hurt Cruz he would have brought up ethanol, TPA, visas, immigration or Cruz’s original dual Canadian citizenship- And most certainly, anyone who has a sense of Trump and Cruz understands that trump legitimately likes and respects Cruz, and therefore, if Trump really wished to go after Cruz, he wouldn’t do so by attacking his Cuban heritage.

Trump is lashing out at all of Cruz’s opposition, including Hillary, body blows weakening the field. Certainly, trump is helping himself, but likewise, he is helping Cruz. Unless and until Trump goes after Cruz in some meaningful fashion, the question as to whether or not he’s plowing the road for Cruz remains on the table...and I think likely the case.

Since we all seem to accept Islam as a “religion” then I guess anything goes so I don’t care what is said about any “religion.”
For it or against it or decrying it it doesn’t matter.

Trumpsters will embrace this tactic. They’re already calling Cruz a dominionist.

Its funny, an adulterer who owns gambling businesses and donated to lefties is questioning Cruz’s faith.

Trump sure does not know how to take on Cruz. Every time he swings, he misses.

Hey Donald, talk about the PACs funding Cruz!!!!! What are they after in return for their money?

Tempest in a Teapot #4,894.

Anyone know how many Evangelicals come out of Cuba and does anyone really care? For me the answer is no on both counts.

Heck, I’m a Catholic and I think the Pope talks like a typical Democrat Communist Sympathizer. I guess I should never run for Office for fear of upsetting my fellow Catholics who think the Pope is the ultimate Authority in their lives unless their Daughter needs an Abortion of course.

I wonder how many of these offended folks have or will Vote for the Democrat in the General? Do Republicans get 100% of the Evangelical Vote? I doubt it.

The world burns and we pontificate about a silly throwaway line in a Trump Speech.

Iowa should just stick to growing Corn, watching American Pickers and being the subject of fantasy Baseball Movies if this makes or breaks their choice of a Candidate.

If it drives them to Cruz, so be it. If it’s the ONLY reason it drives them to Cruz, they are as brain dead as any Liberal out there. How many of these Evangelical purists wouldn’t Vote for a Catholic, Mormon or Jew?

Geez. I’m a Cruz(1), Trump(2) guy and I could not care less about this. Apparently it’s worth triplicate Threads here.

Just my $.02, your Mileage may vary. Maybe I just got up on the wrong side of the bed and this stupid same old, same old Thread topic just pushed my button one too many times.

Happy New Year, it will be a doozie for sure.
