Well said!!
A well-worn tactic that didn't work in this case. Sorry, your ty-um is up!

Trump 2016.
ALL IN.
Probably best that I take a break from posting until after November. I won’t vote Trump and don’t want to cause trouble here.
That said I wish you luck in your attempt at unity. A thought for the Trump supporters: filling this thread with insults or attacks on Cruz supporters works against the call to unity.
With any luck come November we won’t have a President Clinton again!
Being told I must vote for a particular candidate doesn’t sit well with me no matter how well intentioned that call may be.
I’ll vote or not vote for whatever candidate I choose and that choice will not be made on the basis of my membership in any particular forum or group.
This is your property and you have the right to set the bar for membership as you like. I’d already made the decision to refrain from posting until after the election. I’ll sign off now and zot me if you like
So much eloquence in so few words - Patrick Henry, as told to Vonnegut, restored by Lewis Carroll, finally edited by Thomas Jefferson.
If I ever get there I'll let you know.
Good Jim. I am sick and tired of them insulting us. #hillaryforprison2016!
Since I know how it all ends (see The Revelation of Jesus Christ), while part of me is concerned about my descendants' future, I won't be crawling over broken glass to stop her.
One of the most epic documents in the history of America. I mean it. Not exaggerating or trying to sound weird. This is on the level with the Declaration of Independance or the Preamble to the Constitution. The INTERNET AGE version of those great foundational documents.
Right On JimRob!
Mr Trump is the only candidate willing to sacrifice himself to save the American Dream for our children.
It’s time to unite, bring millions of Reagan democrats out of the shadows and make america great again!
I generally don’t respond to your posts, not because content isn’t almost always excellent, but just cause you get so many responses I don’t want to pile on with the “me too”.
With that being said Sir, allow me to commend you on this excellent piece. You do a fine job here identifying the real problem, specifically the “NeverTrump” movement and the distraction that it provides to the real enemy, Hillary Clinton.
I supported Mr. Trump from early on, but did so with the caveat that if Mr. Cruz or anyone else fairly won the nomination I would support them. The fact that some folks would sell out to blocking Trump who is at the very least, a patriot and a capitalist, at the expense of electing a woman who is clearly a socialist is unconscionable. And to do so under the guise of “principles” is stupid and clearly deserves to be called out for the nonsense that it is.
So once again, great job, and from one ex-sailor to another, Bravo Zulu.
bttt
As you wish.
I could never support another North East “evolving” Rino anyway.
Why fight it.
Surrender seems to be our way on the right lately.
So be it.
Enjoy the wall. We shall retire from this field. And go 3rd party...without you.
Jedi.
I remain ‘NeverRINO’, hope that is ok around here. Not Romney, not McCain (even though I voted for him because of Palin...after several agonizing minutes in the voting booth).
I guess if I get kicked, I will know why. I used to love this place, but for the last few months the constant lies about Cruz and the childish name-calling have made it hard to visit. A lot of trash posts from a few people, and I wish it was that type of ‘information’ that no longer represented this site, and was not tolerated. Oh well.
I heard about this thread, but someone finally posted a link to it so I could see it for myself. The childish name calling continues...
I hope the Cruzettes finally realize who the enemy is, and which (R) candidate actually has the ability to defeat the demonRATs...

We Have to beat Hillary. Hopefully, the upcoming email/server mess news will beat her before the election. However Lynch handles this, it's going to help Trump. Fight On!
Definitely NEVER EVER HILLARY.
It’s your site Jim. I apologize that I missed your decree.
If you wish to surrender the progressive conman, it’s your choice. My conscience is clear, and I will not post anything more about the disaster which may yet be averted. Trump can’t win the general election. Nothing will change that. He’s a suicide bomb for the GOP. Enjoy your Trojan horse progressive con man, his collaboration with the media, the victory of his friend Hillary, the loss of the Senate, the loss of the House of Representatives, and 3 leftist members of the Supreme Court.
I’ll focus on saving the country, fixing the conservative movement, and trying to explain to people that irrational anger turns them into slaves.
... while the "Lyin' Ted" and similar diatribes and insults continue 24x7.
Since we're committed to defeating the Hildebeast, shouldn't there be a total cease-fire? Otherwise, we risk alienating more and more Cruz supporters past the point where they'd be willing to forgive and forget and vote for Trump in November.
(Then again, the "Lyin' Ted" bullsh*t is infinitely more effective every time it comes from Mr. Trumps own lips.)
I read this with deep regret. I have been a part of FR for over 16 years; I was first invited here by a Keyes campaign staffer in 1999. I was here for SoreLoserman. I followed the events of 9/11 largely here on FR. I remember the DC sniper threads, Rathergate, and so much more here. And now the founder of the site says I’m no longer welcome because I cannot support a sociopathic, narcissistic, pro-abortion, pro-tax-increase, imbecilic liberal, because that liberal has put an “R” next to his name and is hated by a few of the same people who hate conservatives.
It has been noted that Trump tends to corrupt anything that comes near him. I see that FR is not exempt from this rule.
You are correct that we cannot secure the blessings of liberty under a president Hillary Clinton. But it is at least equally true that we cannot do so under a president Donald Trump.
It seems to me that all arguments of the sort you have posted here concentrate on how terrible Hillary is. I agree. But these posts never really seem to defend Trump - because he is indefensible. The closest it ever gets is to say that he’s “anti-establishment.” That may or may not be true. But if it is true, he is a far worse threat to our liberties than the establishment has ever been.
As Alexander Hamilton said, “If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures.”
Jim, you have every right to do with your site as you see fit. But in this case, it makes me very sad.
