...

Saying that he does't trust businessman Donald Trump ideologically, Viguerie added: "Cruz is the best candidate I've seen since Ronald Reagan and in many ways he's more ideologically consistent than Reagan." His feeling is that with the establishment currently divided across several candidates, Cruz can to rally not just conservatives, but the entire GOP. Viguerie said the GOP hasn't been fully united since 1988 and "only Cruz has potential to unite the party." ...

...”Trump has (celebrity) appeal”....

....and therefore the Obamanites are coming into the fray in droves...they love to be part of the crowd and are accustomed to marching to the drumbeat of anything that glitters....especially when it’s free entertainment.

Cruz has lied about nothing. Do some research on your own instead of relying on what Ted Cruz’s enemies say about him. And btw, he voted NO on TPA and has vowed to vote NO on TPP.

Good, that means the party is ripe to be rebuilt in the Tea Party’s image. What a perfect opportunity for Ted Cruz!

“p.s. I just gave my first political donation to Ted Cruz today.”

=== === === ===

Well, that’s special. I’ve donated to him many times and now I wish I could get my money back.!

I’m just praying that Cruz and Trump do not destroy each other and the party unites behind Rubio or Bush.

It’s a great opportunity for US. I hope we’re smart enough to take it.

I went to my first Tea Party meeting in Southlake Texas. Nice crowd in every way. Local talk show host Mark Davis was MC.

I wore my “Read My Lipstick” hat. I think that was in honor of Sarah Palin.

I still believe in Tea Party ideals.

Trump can do no wrong. Haven’t you learned that by now?

“Cruz has lied about nothing. Do some research on your own instead of relying on what Ted Cruz’s enemies say about him.”

I did.

Cruz lied.

“And btw, he voted NO on TPA and has vowed to vote NO on TPP.”

Cruz very carefully helped Ryan roll out TPA, he defended it with lies (you can google all of this) voted against cloture that would have stopped TPA, then he voted FOR TPA, and the second time he voted against it when his vote for it was no longer needed, so he could deceive people on your level that he voted against it.

TPP has yet to come to a vote. Because of Cruz’s help, TPP will have very limited debate time, and will need only 51 votes to pass it — although it is a treaty. The Constitution mandates a two-thirds vote to okay a treaty. But Mr. Constitution did not ever say a word about that.

Rather odd considering ACTUAL FACT. Romney won 95,669 votes. Donald TRUMP won with 100,406 votes. Seems you are a student of Common Core Math. In old fashioned arithmetic, 100,000 BEATS 95,000 any day of the week. BTW HOW MANY were running against Trump? Answer: there were 26 Candidates on the ballot.

I think there is zero chance of that happening.

But we can’t ask either candidate to back off, can we.

They are running for the nomination.

Cruz will get the majority of Christie’s and Fiorina’s votes. When Carson goes out, despite all the phony allegations of dirty tricks, the majority of his votes will go to Ted Cruz. When Rubio drops out (and he will), the majority of his votes will go to Ted Cruz. When Jeb Bush drops out (and he will), the majority of his votes will go to Ted Cruz...and so on down the line. Cruz is the top second choice of the supporters of virtually every candidate running. Plus Cruz’s positives among Republican voters are like thirty points higher than Trump, and his negatives among Republican voters is about twenty five points less negative that Trump. In other words, Ted Cruz is going to kick Trump’s butt as the primary moves forward!

No, we can’t. No more than we can ask their supporters on either side to back off. So we are at war for the duration. Praying we do not all end up in ruins.

AND let’s not forget that Sen. Session’s #1 Aide is now working for Trump AND Sessions worked with Trump in writing one of Trump’s planks.

Bloomberg has sent out ‘a second’ feasibility group now....he may yet enter the race as the Demoratic Leadership cannot get any traction with Hillary and Sanders is not of their choosing. I think there are some unexpected surprises ahead..including in the Gop.

And Trump has bashed every other candidate in the most vile and vulgar way not seen in fifty years. How does he unite the party?
.......................................................
I don’t want him to “UNITE” the PARTY! I want him to take a wrecking ball to the party and smash it to smithereens! I want Trump to take us back to America FIRST! I want Trump to take us back to AMERICAN SOVEREIGNTY and not to the one world order destruction of America which the “PARTY” pushes with every sell out vote they make AGAINST the American People
GO TRUMP!!!.
