Like you, I’ll vote for whomever wins our nomination. Still, Rubio’s treatment of the Tea Party in FL turned me off and now Cruz has driven me away from supporting him. Not the attacks on Cruz but the comments and accusations coming from Cruz himself. He’s effectively driven me away and back to supporting Trump.
I also understand Trump being vague about what he’d. He’s not a politician who is driven by sound bytes and years of politicking the public. The revelation of Jeff Sessions being one of his advisers, and has been for some time now, proves to me that Trump will have good people around him who will keep him focused on what can or should be done, not some pie in the sky promise made only during the campaign.
Sounds familiar buddy. Trump is hardly perfect but of the choices we have I’ll take him any ol’ day.
I hope that after all the primaries are done we can coalesce around whoever wins.
Yes, I’ll admit, I only voted for Republicans for president except for my very first time when I voted for Jimmy Carter in 1976. I know, I know...
I did not like Ford, and when he beat Reagan for the nomination, I vowed I wouldn’t vote for Ford even if that meant getting the democrat in.
What a MISTAKE! I was actually a young airman then, fresh out of basic training, and over the next four years things got so bad due to Carter that:
A. We appeared weak to the Soviet Union, which seriously had them considering the possibility that they could win a nuclear war with a massive surprise attack. I spent 1976-79 in Cheyenne Mountain, NORAD, and the conventional wisdom on the inside was we’d soon be Cheyenne Crater.
B. Canceled weapons programs left and right while the Soviets conducted a MASSIVE rearmament. In the end, it cost us far more $$$ to catch up in the 1980s. Penny-wise and pound-foolish.
C. The pulling the rug out from under the Shah of Iran to look good on human rights. So how’d that work out, anyway? The Shah was a pussy compared to the Islamicists. A thousand dead versus 100s of thousands; maybe millions. Letting Saddam Hussein expand into the vacuum dumping the Shah caused. And we’re STILL facing the consequences. ISIS, anyone? When many people look at the New York City skyline and miss seeing the World Trade Center, well, some blame Bush. Wrong. Others blame Clinton. Less wrong. I blame Jimmy Grinnin’ Carter. He set in motion that which would cause Bin Laden. Would the Soviets have invaded Afghanistan if the USA had been strong, and the Shah’s army was watching over it all?
Those are just three things my revenge for not getting the nominee I wanted helped cause. Now I don’t have delusions of grandeur, blaming only me for the Carter debacle, but when you add up a vote here, a vote there, well, it adds up, and we lose far worse than just having a RINO for a while. Electing democrats lead to death.
BTW, and off topic, but do not believe what some say in private without hearing the other side of the story. There is ALWAYS the other side that needs to be heard before final judgment is made. I was amazed until I saw it with my own eyes. And THAT is just my cryptic message for the week.
