Somewhere along the way, the Cruz folks convinced themselves a good Conservative could not back Trump.
They couldn’t convince anyone else, but they still are convinced Trump will destroy what is left of our nation.
Sarah Palin
Phyllis Schlafley
Jeff Sessions
These are three people who now must be seen by the Cruz folks as people who have gone full blown Leftist.
Good luck with that.
At some point, the Cruz folks are going to have to back it down. What they are selling, isn’t selling.
Too prominent of people have backed Trump, and there is plenty of good reason behind that.

I don’t think that “Cruz people” think that personalities that have endorsed Trump have “gone full blown Leftist”. I think that these folks have endorsed Trump because they see him as winning the nomination. However, I have seen many (formerly) sane FReepers who are Trump supporters suddenly think that long time PROVEN (by their actions) constitutional conservative such Cruz & Rush Limbaugh have become “LIARS” and “establishment” because they do not support Trump. I have hopes that sanity at some point will return to these people-—but it may not, I fear.
Thanks for your comments.
I know they make sense to you.

I noticed that exact same phenomenon. I left FR for a few months, and come back to see formerly true (I thought) conservatives actually mocking conservatism, Constitutionalism, and also, lately, TRASHING Mark Levin and Rush Limbaugh for having the audacity to tell the truth against their false god.
Very disappointing, from Freepers I formerly respected. No more.
Such behavior would never been tolerated in the good old days when Free Republic was a conservative forum, but I suppose all good things must end.
