IMO they are still trying to keep Trump from being the nominee. They will be ineffective. Reid and Carter would prefer Trump. That was the tipping point for me. I have been for Cruz from the beginning, took a look at Trump and acknowledge he has been effective. But I can’t trust him to govern like a conservative. Just like Romney and just like McCain and just like Dole. Trump has done better in the open primaries than the closed ones. That does not bode well for a general election.
Trump would go around, like Dole/McCain/Romney, apologizing for and equivocating about true conservative principles such as limited government, de-funding Planned Parenthood, rolling back government involvement in our health care. No thanks. I think I’ll take a 10th Amendment conservative like Cruz this time.
I moved to my current residence in late ‘11.
There’s a house I pass every day on my commute to/from work.
During every election season that entire time, the guy who lives there has had signs up for the democrat candidate; this year he’s got a Trump sign.
