That is what bothers me most about Trump - his supporters. They are worshiping him. No sign of thought and no comprehension that someone could look at his record and have doubts.

What a total pant-load.

Cruz supporters are just pissed off because THEIR reasoning isn't convincing others.

YOU guys are the reason Trump supporters are no longer hoping for a Trump/Cruz ticket.

Go ahead. Keep up the insults for your candidate.

Actually, Trump supporters are making it very hard to vote for him:

Cringing Negativism Network: I don't believe this article.
This is a Ted Cruz troll in my opinion.

Candor7: John Hawkins the poofter!
Allahwaho Wackbar , John.

Helicondelta: This article is a load of crap.
John Hawkins sounds like a liar.

Pravious: Ditto. It's not even that well disguised. Just more anti-Trump trolling.
All I can say is POUND SAND, LOSER.

So let's examine the responses. Do we have any rebuttal? Any reasons why this opinion is wrong? Any evidence or experience that shows why Trump will govern to the right? Nope.

Instead, we get ad hominem attacks on the author, on Ted Cruz, and on "Cruz-supporters," none of whom had even POSTED up to that point. No reason, no explanation, just vitriol. Vitriol directed (once again) at people who have been conservative bastions in the past (like Cruz, Mark Levin, Rush, et al.), but, because they dare doubt Trump, they must be destroyed (not disagreed with, not persuaded, not contradicted... but persoanlly attacked and destroyed)! This is conservative?

I won't vote for Jeb (why bother; he's the same as a Democrat), but I'll vote for any Republican candidate to beat Hillary or Bernie. But I had very little enthusiasm for Mitt, and I think a lot of people who pulled the lever for him felt the same way. It showed in his defeat. How many people will Trump get to enthusiastically campaign for him after his supporters attack and denigrate those very people because they disagree?

I'll vote for Trump. But if we have to tear down everyone who has gotten conservatism to this point in order to do so... what have we "won"...?

“What a total pant-load.”

That is about on par with the level of discourse of most Trump supporters.

“We are looking for a strong leader who loves America...”

Thank you nclaurel for the polite reply. My problem with Trump is that one can love America and have no idea HOW to make America great. His enthusiasm within recent times for Obama, Hillary and DeBlasio concern me. His thin skin bothers me as well, and has since the first Megyn Kelly flap. I find his “tweeting” embarrassing for an adult.

But unlike Hillary and Sanders, I’m sure he does love America.
