Yes some of the Cruz supporters have been insufferable, a few cranks leading the charge here, they spam every thread. I think I can speak for some Trump suppporters here. the reason we diusagree about Cruz is primarily his electability in the general and it is about winning, making philosophical statements is for authors, pundits,college professors and radio talk show hosts. I am sick of being lectured by the likes of Levin, Hannity, etc on how we must stick to purity, strict conservative principals or take our marbles and go home. They throw up specious sophistic arguments that we nominated Romney and McCain and look what we got. That is an apples an oranges argument and bears little resemblance to todays political horserace. Is Trump perfect, is he even close to perfect? Heck no, but he hits on a few themes with me, really dealing with trade with the Chicoms, taxes, the border, Islamofascism and the guy has some real world experience running a business. Cruz is a career lawyer and spent most of his life close to the government teat. No thanks. Its about stopping Hillary not winning intellectual arguments.
Amen.
Would the purists support a candidate that signed the first “no fault” divorce laws into law? Setting the country on a disasterous course? And he was divorced on top of that.
How about that same candidate that signed abortion legislation into law?
Or granted amnesty to illegals?
The person who did all of the above was Ronald Reagan. Who, IMHO, is still the greatest POTUS in the history of this country.
The whole facade about “purity” is just that, a facade, especially when it comes to Donald Trump. The real reason most people on here hate him is because their are lime green with envy that he’s wealthy and does what’re the Hell he wants to do. He’s a Alpha Male of the first order and jealous nothings HATE that. But instead of being truthful, they endlessly spew bilge. Then they act indignant when they get their faces rubbed in the s**t that they started. Hypocrites and cowards. Not surprising though.
