Ever notice how A dozen or so Trumpophiles on this forum never post anything positive about their candiate with the exception of favorable polls.
They rather bottom feed the internet for any (generally) bogus manure they can throw at the one bonafide conservative in the race.
Remind you of the modus operandi of any group in particular? They have nothing positive to post on their man because it doesn’t exist. Trump is a documented liberal who has been on the wrong side of damn near every issue concerning conservatives over the past 20 years.
Rather than try and prove their candidates conservative bonafides (which is impossible)they seek to destroy the image of the opposition. They learn from the best as Trump is a master at it.
Trump has a couple of good ideas and he takes no crap from the press. That’s good, but the mountain of baggage that he carries with him vastly outweighs the few positives in his political resume.
The view from 50,000 feet seems to be that Trump has come as an answer to the “Truth is fallen in the streets” problem.
People will forgive him a lot of loose living, even a lot of false starts, for the sake of that. Lies, lies, lies; people are starting to really loathe the lies but don’t quite know where to turn.
Cruz could take a cue from this and add emphasis in his own campaign. It shouldn’t even be all that hard to do; a Christian viewpoint should beat out a semi-secular one any day, but it needs to be backed up with boldness of expressed conviction. Mere “Churchianity” needn’t apply. This is about the glory of God, not the glory of church or the glory of morals or the glory of constitution etc.
On the other hand, Trump could stand to let himself have a revelation that it’s the glory of God that greatness is all about. If he did, his tack would adjust pretty quickly. He is hearing from some inspirational evangelists now, which is better than nothing. I say keep an eye on Trump for improvements.
