I will back Cruz but the GOPe will not back him either. At this point my wife and I decided we will hold our nose and vote for Hillary and the Democratic candidate for senate in Georgia if neither Teump or Cruz is the candidate. Those supporting anyone other than Teump are not willing to change politics as we have known them. Enough is enough. I have voted for too many GOPe candidates with my nose held because I believed it would make a difference. When we have a chance to make a real difference the Party has made it clear they would rather lose the election than support Trump. I would rather the party lose the election than trash trump.
I agree with you. I will not vote for a GOP-E candidate for president, and probably not for VP either. I will vote for the Democrat. Suicide *should* be quick instead of lingering agony.
While I agree in part with most of what you said, I would not say that Trump is going to change any sort of politics.
He appears to be a-political, but his core is more in line with the classic liberal. There are very few of them left. The last one we had as president was Bill Clinton.
I don’t see any politics changing, but what I do see is a continuation of the degradation of the US Constitution.
As for me, my vote is in....wife and I voted for Cruz.
When the general gets here in November, I long ago, even before Cruz announced, decided that I too would no longer hold my nose again, but I would never actually vote for a democrat.
