Watching presidential candidates Donald Trump and Sen. Ted Cruz this week was like watching the bully's punch painfully hit the book the nerd had hidden in his jacket. It was fun to see.

Bully in chief Donald Trump likes to throw litigious punches, and a lot of people are scared of them, understandably. Getting sued hurts. A lot. (Come to think of it, any form of bullying is pretty painful.) But we learned this week that Cruz can't be bullied by Trump.

"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton

 

"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan

 

"A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." - Thomas Paine 1792

 

"It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams

 

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

 

" Always vote for principle, though you may vote alone, and you may cherish the sweetest reflection that your vote is never lost." - John Quincy Adams

“Trump hasn’t had a day this bad since Carly Fiorina said: “I think women all over this country heard very clearly what Mr. Trump said.”

And it will amount to the same thing, and the said poll is a fraud, and Cruz is not cool.

Idiots

Trump owns the news cycle until the Election.

Who is talking about the Great endorsements of Rubio or even Rubio's name.

Trump is letting Rubio draft untouched into 2nd place

If there was a poll showing Rubio in a virtual tie with Trump you’d be the first to say it’s a shit poll.

Compare the WSJ-NBC poll with the other NBC polls and you’ll see that it is.

Trumps a bully #4937

The printing presses at places like Berkeley CA headline with this bully garbage around the clock.

Looking at the state of this country in decline, I’d say it was the career politicians from the federation of frauds who are the real suspects and bullys.
