One might think there would be some “Praise the Lord” from a group that’s trying to act Christianly.
Its absence bothers me more, much more, than Ted Cruz’s checkered political past.
If we had all acted like Ted Cruz in 2016, I wouldn’t give you two cents for the future of Christianity in the nation.
Yes, Ted Cruz did the Trump campaign AND himself no favors when he didn't endorse DJT at the Republican Convention. And yes, he has tried/is trying to "mend his ways" and support the current administration whenever, wherever, and however he can.
Do we really need to continue this harassment and hatred on Free Republic? There's plenty of wrong and mistrust and disagreement on issues/candidates to last forever. If we continue to disparage our own and each other (other Republicans in primaries whom we don't personally support), and if we continue to get mad and hold grudges at other Republicans who don't believe/vote exactly how we think they should - then why can we be surprised when Republicans hold "circular firing squads" after primaries, and then lose to Democrats?!
We're just being "the stupid party" the Democrats call us. All they have to do is sit back and watch us destroy each other, and then come in with the claim to "fix it." (You and I know their definition of "fix it" is diametrically opposed to yours, mine, Cruz's, Trump's, and other - NOT ALL!- Republicans.)
Let's work together, instead of against each other, so we can elect people who have the best interest of the USA (not themselves personally) at heart. And since the 2016 election season is over, let's give each other the benefit of the doubt.
End of rant.
