“...other than ego or pride....”

And a good old fashioned dose of plain old anger. He’s human after all, like Trump is. Both of them talked smack on each other (it’s politics, again...).

“...hoping those of us on both sides of this...”

It needs to be One Team, One Fight.

Good post, Lake. Thanks for the ping.

Hello to all of you. Hope you are all well.

Most will come from western states. But it will have an impact in other states.

I'm glad you said that both of them did the same stuff in rock em sock em political nastiness. It's true, both of them did. Cruz no less so than Trump.

It's also true that both Trump and Cruz did so to Carson.

It took less than two weeks for Carson to get over it, put it behind him, and select Trump in spite of what had happened.

Carson is now one of Trump's closest advisers and will take an important position in his administration.

Clinton is the common enemy. That’s Why Cruz is voting for the man he more than likely hates more than anyone else on the planet. he placed Country before his personal agenda.
But I don’t understand all the hate for Cruz. Up until a year ago Ted was the favorite here. he has solid creds for voting and defending Conservative values. And now everyone here withholds their love for him. And for what reason? I doubt I will ever understand it.
And there are more than a few who wish him harm here. And they want him to lose his seat in the senate. What a loss that would be for the cause. Can we afford risking replacing Cruz for another liberal hack? Cruz could just as easily go into the private sector and make more there than in the Senate.

I was a solid Cruz supporter until February. I changed to Trump because I thought he was the better candidate, not because I thought ill towards Cruz.

I do think you forget how many times Cruz left his "principles" at the door as the campaign unfolded.

He went off the rails when he blamed Trump for the violence in Chicago, missed a huge chance to stand up against the thuggery. He took on the Bush family to help run his campaign (the very people he was supposedly running against). It got worse from there, but there is no need to continue and gin up this fight, it's over, it's done. Both the candidates ave buried the hatchet.

I've put my animus towards Cruz away. I hope you can put whatever animus behind you, let's beat the Clinton crime family!

What Is The Reason You Cultists Randomly Capitalize Your Words?

And Why Are You Cruzlims Such Misery Chicks?

“I hope the crazy Cruzers (as opposed to Cruz supporters) who formed other forums, who hate FR, who hate Trump can get themselves a life now.”

I lurked a bit at an ex-Freeper forum last night, just to see how they’re responding to the news of Ted’s ‘endorsement’.

As you might expect, their thoughts and viewpoints ranged across the dial, from flat out rejection, to admiration and quiet applause.

I think the majority of Cruz supporters now feel released enough from factional division to follow Ted into the voting booth. However, I did note that at least a few of them remain hard core NeverTrump. Those people appear to be headed for the wilderness, and likely won’t be seen again.

“Feed him, let him breathe, and he will be back to mischief as sure as any Bush. They are the ones who created him after all.”

Agreed.

Wait and see. If Ted leverages his newly manufactured support for Trump into a 2018 Senate race win, he’ll turn on a dime and become the biggest thorn in President Trump’s side.

That leopard cannot change his spots.

RE Carson:

He’s a good man. Just don’t think he was ready for the prime time fight yet.

He’ll make a great Surgeon General...

“...I’m glad you said that both of them did the same stuff ...”

Well, of course, fair is fair. It got stupid, for sure.

I was very optimistic at the beginning, when the two of them were working together. Would have liked a Trump/Cruz ticket.

But it is what it is. I think Trump is the right Man for this fight.

Cruz’s time will come.

“Why Are You TRUMPETTES such mindless A Holes? You Are the Picture of Sheeple. Don’t Question trump. Don’t think for Yourself. You guys are like Obama Followers. Bash Anyone Who DOESNT Think the same as You.
Baaa Baaa TRUMPETTES....Just because I have to vote for this turd don’t mean I have to like it. This Election Is a RAce To The Bottom.”

Thank you for this classic example of Cruzlim Blubberhood persuasion and logic.

And for the record, this is not about Trump’s excellence or lack thereof. This is all about oily Felito’s subterfuge, chicanery, pettiness, sanctimony and poorly veiled globalism.

Felito delenda est.

because Cruz supporters are not much in evidence at FR doesn’t mean there still aren’t plenty out there.

Well what the hell is wrong with them? I figured they'd be as scarce as public pay phones.

>>Cruz showed more class to trump than trump deserved.
Funny how all the Cruz bashers were on him for not endorsing and now they are on him for endorsing. Funny crowd we have here anymore.
************************************************************
It is all from one’s point of view, Yorlik.

The truth as I see it is, Cruz took the first shot, and DJT hit back. Mr. Trump showed infinitely more class than Cruz, throughout it all.

Trump supporters who see Cruz for the globalist Bush mole that he is, will ALWAYS remind other folks whose memory is short.

Cut slack to stealth and not-so-stealth Globalists at your own risk. We who are awake and vigilant shall never do so.

Yes, at times these stealth globalists will align with Good causes, and it is fine to ally for the purpose of advancing Good. However, we must take care not to be so easily fooled by them the next time.
