Welcome to FR. This is not normal, people are not generally attacked when they post. But you need to have thick skin. I have defended Ted Cruz and have been physically threatened, told to get cancer, called a liar, stupid, a troll, not a conservative etc. Once Cruz is the nominee on the second ballot, it will be worse, but after that we all go back to being friends.
Lord I hope so... because we need EVERY vote in November.
Have a good week.
PS, old Sam Donaldson line:
When people attack you personally, as opposed to your point or your question, it’s usually because they do not have a good answer to your point or question.
Be well.

I do not know if Trump or Cruz will prevail, but I do not believe you are correct about the kissing and make-up phase. The beauty of Freedom of Speech is it makes it easy to spot the fools. Should Trump gain the nomination and win the election, I suspect Trump Amnesia Syndrome will set in almost immediately as Trump does what Trump does, make deals with liberals.
