What is not obvious to me is why Cruz supporters are so much more adversarial and venomous toward Trump & his supporters than visa versa. I mean, I support Trump but I think of Cruz if anything as being more in tune with Biblical Christianity than Trump. Trump can come across as pugnacious.

And yet it is the supporters of Cruz who seem to be so full of vitriol towards Trumpeters and Trumpettes. Another thing that is curious to me is Cruz himself. I never thought of him as being slimy, but the stuff his campaign has pulled has been slimy and deceptive. Maybe Cruz is not the goody two-shoes he portrays.

I don’t know, maybe it’s career politicians in general. Maybe they can’t help but become corrupt I don’t know. You know I’ve always been against term limits because it takes free choice out of the hands of the people. But maybe terms limits, which would basically at least reduce the number of career politicians, would do more good than harm.

I agree with your post. It is unreal and sad to watch all of this hatred and dishonesty.

Cruz has a curious campaign strategy saying anything as long as one apologies after the fact. This allows so many possibilities.

I believe Cruz is highly competent, brilliant even. I think the driving force within him is only the good he can do for the country.

I do believe, based on some of his choices of those around him (like Glenn Beck and those who have immersed him in several imbroglios to which he is forced to do the right thing and apologize) is not good ‘radar’ in terms of judging allies and colleagues. He HAS to get better at this or manage his underlings and supporters better if he wants to beat Rubio (first) and then Trump (if that’s possible).
