I don't think you get it. Conservatives support conservatism not people. We support Ted because he is the only conservative in the race.

Then what did you do this past two weeks when Cruz fully abandoned "conservatism" to get elected at any cost?

Go ahead, explain to us how siding with Moveon, #blacklivesmatter, and the totalitarian left was "conservative". Go ahead, explain how taking on the GOPe money machine to his campaign was "principled".

As I said, watching those of you who remain Cruzers after this past two weeks would have been fun if it hadn't been so sickening.

I await the *crickets* of your response.....

I actually like a lot of Trump’s policy stances. One thing I don’t like about Trump is his lack of tact and his tendency to say ridiculous things in the heat of the moment.

If you go back and actually listen to what Ted said, he first excoriated the liberal protesters and then pointed out Trump’s lack of leadership. Are you proud of your candidate saying he wanted a protester to get “punched in the head” while they were being escorted out? How about him calling people “pussy” or claiming he has a bid dick?

Look, these people who are protesting are idiots and there are two ways to deal with them. 1. Act like a liberal thug and encourage violence against them. OR 2. Act like an enlightened first world person and debate them and shame them and point out how stupid and ridiculous they are. The second tactic is hard to do when your candidate is just as ignorant and crass but simply on the other side of the political issues.

On the money issue...come on. He is a candidate running for office. What is he supposed to say “I don’t want money from the best money men in the party.”...? Your guy has actually admitted to paying bribes to elected officials for the purpose of compromising the free market system and tilt the playing field in his favor. He is a con artist. I can only wonder what other seedy organizations he bribed besides politicians. Maybe the mafia? Maybe the jihadis in the middle east? Who knows? Who cares? Right?

As long as Cruz isn’t compromising his promises to us, I don’t care who he takes money from (if it’s legal). He kept his promises in the Senate. He will keep his promises when he is in the White House.

I am not even sure what party Trump will be a member of in a year from now, let alone which positions he will advocate.
