This Trump vs Cruz debate is strange. Neither one is “pure” but both are 180 deg better than Bush/Rubio/Christie/Fiorina, and exponentially better than Clinton/Sanders/Biden. Why are the candidates and the pundit class distracting from that?
Hearing about the issues differences is good, but listen to what they’re all saying: mostly hyperbole and ad hominems.
Candidates need to focus on debating the real progressives, including the GOPe. For example: How do you explain to a 20-yr old that free college distorts the markets and will fail? How do you explain that a temporary ban on immigration is historically normal, and beneficial?
When you hear this made-up in-fighting, just tune out.
I agree. However How do you explain throwing up a big beautiful wall without a single member of Congress approving it or willing to work with you to make it happen? We can’t and neither can Trump. He plays on the publics sheer stupidity of how Congress works. I can bet you most of Trumps supporters think he himself can get the wall up having no idea it’d have to go for a vote to not only fund but allow for it to happen.
Don’t believe me? Watch Jesse Waters sometime. He interviews people asking some of the MOST BASIC of civic questions. And it is truly terrifying how stupid people are and have become. This is why someone like Trump has been allowed to succeed.
Quite scary
