Just to review the bidding: As owner of the Miss Universe contest, the Donald insisted on allowing a "transgender" contestant. Trump opposed the Partial Birth Abortion ban but now calls himself a "pro-lifer." What has he DONE about it? Immensely wealthy as he is, has he given material support to the pro-life movement? Is it that hard for him to write a check? Mitch McConnell and Rahm Emmanuel have not noticed. He said in 2015 that his militant pro-abortion sister, a federal district court judge, would be a "phenomenal" appointment to SCOTUS. Shall we go on? Anyone unquestioning in support of Trump for the nomination AND calling him/herself a conservative must be at least confused if not deaf and blind though not dumb.
I have been gone from FR for a while due to some personal issues. I’m shocked to come back and find what appears to be the majority of FR’s supporting Trump over Cruz. Has FR been taken over by liberals while I was gone?
Ted Cruz is and always has been a Republican and a conservative. On that basis, he seeks the presidency.
How many babies has Ted Cruz saved? None.
He is a Republican and a careerist politican. How conservative he is depends on the issue at hand and what his donor wants. No “solid conservative” would ever campaign for Barack Obama as Ted Cruz has.
So it seems to me your support for him is not based on conservatism but rather religion. That is your choice. Good day.
