There’s a cult of personality surrounding Trump that’s almost bloodthirsty. I agree with the Muslim ban and waterboarding. I agree with many of his positions but I distrust his vicious attacks on his opponents. He is almost merciless. He is also unprincipled, really. I simply don’t trust him to aspire to make America great like a shining city on a hill. I want America to defend itself and become strong again but it needs to be an example and beacon of freedom. I really don’t think Trump gets that.
This isn't your Grandma's Democrat Party. Your Grandma's Democrat Party wasn't fully entrenched in the media, in the federal unionized mandarin corps, in the Sec8/SSI/WIC/TANF/SNAP/Bobophone ghettos.
You don't like the fight, then look away.

That’s all well and good, but we can’t be a beacon of freedom if our economy sinks into collapse. We will neither be shining, nor strong, nor free. We are in DEBT, major, massive, excruciating debt, in case you haven’t noticed. Trump may have an effect on that ...or at least he is our last hope to turn it around.
And THAT is what I think folks like yourself maybe do not get. I mean, you really don’t get that. The country is on life support ...we just turned the corner to 19 tril.
The attacks always seem to be with a wink and a grin to me. Wasn’t Trump open to considering Cruz as VP just a few days ago ? Always liked the guy, always gotten along well, just a sad thing that happened in Iowa which I’m over now...Erratic and opportunistic maybe but I don’t get a sense of cruelty or mercilessness. Although obviously no one gets to his position in life without doing everything possible to win.
Not almost, it is bloodthirsty.
The anger is so great that people don't care if the guy they back has no history as a conservative, can't even define what a conservative is, has no idea what conservative principals are, as long as he insults, denigrates, mocks, and belittles those they don't agree with. It doesn't matter if Trump believes in govt taking from one person to benefit another person (eminent domain), or thinks some form of socialized medicine is okay, or believes in touchback amnesty, as long as he insults everyone and keeps saying vague phrases (just like obama did) his followers will support him.
Cruz supporters need to get some new material. Its a meme, like calling a political figure Hitler. A substitute for thinking. When a Cruz supporter here taunts people with the terms Trumpettes or Trumpsters, they sound like a buffon.
