Could it be because a number of those who claim to support Cruz are not his supporters at all but want to trash Trump and one he is out of the way go after Cruz? I have noticed a pattern involving several posters who attack not just Trump but Laura Ingraham, Coulter, and others who oppose amnesty. Their attacks typically are vicious and personal.

I presume this is photoshopped.

No I didn’t. What a great number fail to understand is, that there are a very great number of us in this country who are basically fed up with the lot of them.

Regardless of party.

I’ve been a conservative since I was a sperm. With the exception of Reagan, the only president I’ve voted for that gave a damn, we’ve all been paid lip service to by the beltway crowd, and so called republican in particular.

I’m tired of it. And I’m seriously pissed off.

I AM NOT ALONE!

If a resolution of the the sorry state of affairs that the status quo has presented us with requires setting a bull loose in the china shop, then let it be.

No your not. I left the republican party with my utter disgust with Mr NWO Bush 1. To me the government, republican and democrat became one big crime syndicate that fed off the people to the benefit of their friends. I get the meaning of the trump support as an expression of anger and frustration. however, I just believe a man that used the government for his personal gain, has no respect for property rights and is likely to be as authoritarian or worse a cajoler, in his words, with the left to cut deals is what people perceive him to be and will make a lousy president to restore our liberty. To me American history ended sometime between Bush 1 and Obama and that it now is a story of an oligarchy unburdened by respect for the constitution. I think there is a good chance Trump will get the job and I hope your trust is not betrayed. We shall see.

Let me get this straight. You support Trump and post an anti-Trump article. How is this anything other than

Their blood should run through the streets, their families hung from telephones poles.

Not content with old fashioned personal attacks, now we get to advocate violence in our pots?

I never thought I would see this day.

Most of the Trump supporters here seem to be having fun—as opposed to the Cruz supporters, who are not having fun.

I’ve nothing against Cruz. I think he’d probably make a fine VP.

No it is not stirring the pot.

What I am doing is providing evidence of the attitude of the MSM and the GOP establishment. People need to be knowledgeable about the false attacks on Donald Trump and on America in general.

The media and others are using the big lie technique. Only if people are knowledgeable about the continual big lie propaganda and the false attacks can they understand the attitudes of the media, and the establishment.

If people remain ignorant about the attitudes and the attacks of the media they will be unable to make intelligent and informed decisions about the future of America.

Our once great country is facing enormous problems from those who are trying to destroy this country. If people remain ignorant of these threats they will be unable to work to find effective solutions.

I never left the Republican Party. They left me.

And I’m none too happy about it. All those years - decades - and they don’t give a damn.

Guess what? I don’t either, anymore. Not as far as the GOPe is concerned.

The parasites have made their bed. That can sleep in THEIR filth.
