Why am I still here? Simple, there are enough conservatives on this site. Though I must admit, there are fewer of us now than back in the early 2000’s. So responding to someone’s post calling for attacking conservatives in office is, in your opinion, “starting trouble”?

Yes, you are starting trouble because you don't trust the wisdom of Freepers. Many here do not believe that Cruz is a solid conservative anymore with how the reality of the primary played out.

Yet, you continue to push the notion against what many believe here. You don't trust us, that is fine, you are the one that admitted that but to continue on with your babble is nothing more than causing trouble AND HELPING the other side.

FWIW, I go back to lurking here since 1998. I even found my old ID but it has too much personal info in my ID to use it these days.

As for not trusting Freepers, I will remind you that there was a large contingent of pro-Romney Freepers during the last elections and during this cycle, several were Jeb supporters. And your comment about many not believing that Cruz is a solid conservative only goes to provide reason behind my position. But more to the point, I dont let anyone else make up my mind for me.

I always have and always will push for conservatism. But you are correct, that does appear to be against what many here now believe. Shame, because it did not used to be that way.

So because I hold a different opinion, I am no longer to be heard? I am to be silenced and censored because you can’t stand to hear a different opinion? My, what a fragile world you live in.

Pointing out Trump’s past is not helping the other side. It is keeping him accountable to the promises he made to conservatives. Trump has a liberal / leftist history. My experiences tell me that supporting such candidates who have only recently found conservative positions is fraught with disappointment.
