Its not an oh noes - just funny how Romney supporting someone becomes the kiss of death to Trump, and to Trump supporters.But, four years ago Trump endorsed Romney. The article goes further where Trump said if Romney is the Republican nominee, Trump would not run as an Independent.
I guess they mean it when they say politics makes strange bedfellows.
To be fair to Trump (which is probably the furthest thing from your intent), Trump made those statements/decisions before (R)money climbed in bed with Paul "GOPe Munster" Ryan and ran a FAILED campaign that didn't have the COJONES to go for the proglodytes throat regarding benghazi et al.
Not like Trump is doing now!
You my friend are missing the point, Cruz is NOW backed by GOP-e and their MONEY!!! Cruz just hung himself and betrayed his voters!!!!
LOL!
The Addams Family was fifty years ahead of its time.
So, in politics it is better to disavow the support of opponents you have vanquished? Wow, talk about a strategy for losing.
Does Trump refuse the support of defeated candidates and their voters? If not, and Trump supporters are fine with it, they are double minded if they condemn Cruz for doing the same thing.
Cruz Derangement Syndrome is strong at FR theses days.
Probably voting for the Libertarian candidate myself.
We know it’s tough to accept that you’ve been sold out by Teddy. We’ll save you a seat on the Trump Express for when you’re ready.
“The Trump supporters are such hypocrites like their idol, DJ Trump. They argue whatever serves their purpose for the moment. When it suited them, Trumpers said Cruz is hated by everyone in Washington. Now that the establishment has been brought down and uniting behind Cruz reluctantly, the Trumpers argue that Cruz is an establishment guy. Truth means nothing to Trumpism and in that sense it is similar to Obamaism.”
Exactly. What we are witnessing here is moderates being forced to move to the right. Go Cruz!
OMG I have never heard anyone convolute the truth like you just did the establishment endorsements of Cruz. You sound delusional.
In my post 163, I meant “The Munsters”, not the Addams Family.

Cruz's insiders club looken sharp~
If a losing candidate is a decent person, it’s perfectly fine to accept their support and have them stand with you.
Romney, however, is scum. A sane, self-respecting person would absolutely disavow such support.
Well said.
Naaah. Time to be gracious.
Cruz is losin’, and Trump is cruisin’.
Duh that is why he can say Romney let “us” down!
Trump endorsed and supported Romney in 2012. Easily verifiable fact.
Trump has talked about how frustrating it was to see Romney basically disappear the last month or so of the campaign. I remember that. Obama was everywhere talking - Romney silent. Trump called the Romney campaign asking what’s going on, where is Mitt??
It will be fascinating to see the landscape if Trump turns out to be exactly who his critics and skeptics from the Right think he is. While Trump supporters accuse every critic of him as being a victim of Trump Derangement Syndrome (as though there could be no principled conservative opposition to Trump), if Trump’s critics are correct there will eventually be widespread Trump Amnesia Syndrome as his myrmidons race to disavow support for him.
We live in interesting times.
Levin literally drove me from Sirius' Patriot channel, that and those pathetic "I'm right, you're wrong" narcissists pretending to be A-M-E-R-I-C-A-N-S...
I do miss Drudge on the radio though, in fact listening to him back in '98 is how I found this place!
Trump critics in the media have pure hatred for Trump. Some because he is in the way of Cruz. Cruz has become unhinged in his quest to win at all cost. He is attracting people who are unstable. He is probably in denial about not getting the nomination.
