Many people are becoming familiar with a common ‘truth-stretching trait‘ of Ted Cruz that appears to be infecting his followers and supporters.

[Washi]

I’m with you, Jeff.
Would like to see cooler heads prevail around here.
Rivalry is well and good, but let’s not do Hillary’s job for her by destroying our candidates with the most potential to advance conservatism.

[Leaning Right]

As a Trump supporter, the inevitable collision between Trump and Cruz is sad to see. I refuse to take part in the Cruz bashing.

Ditto that.

[DB]

Cruz was easy to vet. There isn’t much there to expose and his work is public record.

Trump hasn’t even begun to be vetted with all his business dealing and “exchanges”, to put it politely, with politicians.

When Trump is nominated the left is going to have field day with the target rich Trump. The MSM has no desire to expose Trump in the primary and have been lying low. They want to see him win it. The flood will come after the nomination.

[Washi]

Give it a rest, captain.
If your candidate deseverves to win, spend more time telling us about his positives and less time trying to amplify Cruz’s negatives.

There are hit pieces against Trump posted by the minute form the same 5-7 posters, over and over and over, same story from different sources.

What gives?

I don't disagree with you. I like Cruz best so I tend to notice articles about him more. The candidates should be vetted and researched but I just don't get hit pieces and vitriol about our top two.

[RginTN]

the trumpsters don’t want to win over Cruz supporters they want to “win” without them just like Jeb! and the gopE!!!

[crazyhorse691]

If you want to see total dedication by cultist followers just say any thing perceived as negative by the Trump Cult...OMG, it almost makes me ashamed to be a conservative. Their attacks lean heavily on the shortcomings of your parents and you as a failed human being. The enemy is Obama and his minions.

[chris37]

I can understand people pushing their preferred candidate.

I’d say that’s to be expected in a primary.

What I do not get is the vile behavior of a good deal of Cruz’s supporters here.

Not all of them, let me clarify, I’d say a good few of them are perfectly reasonable and nice.

But others are foul. I mean, it’s just like... WOW.

One poster earlier said “I would post a pic about Trump supporters but couldn’t find a pic of a dild*.

It’s because of these people ob FR that I no longer support Ted Cruz.

I don’t want to be associated with them or their candidate at all.

[John Valentine]

What a crock. Don’t you get even a little bit embarrassed spewing this crap?

[saywhatagain]

and of course you have a better grasp and understanding of the letter and technicality of the law than a person who has actually argued NINE cases in the highest court of the land.

come on . . . its bunch of noise by the nerds in school arguing amongst themselves trying to confuse you. Let it go.

[pgyanke]

It’s because of these people ob FR that I no longer support Ted Cruz.

That's silly. Support the candidate who agrees with your worldview. Forget the idiots on both sides.

[Lexinom]

Right there with you, but substitute “Donald Trump”. He’s emblematic of everything wrong in this nation - the devolution of dialogue to playground insults and popularity contests.

[Lexinom]

Which is why it’s probably time to give up on saving America and focus on our own survival and our families.

[DoughtyOne]

Home at last...

Excuse me, this won't be shown in the U. S. right?

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

Ted Cruz is a good man and a better senator than almost all of the rest of them.

You want another McCain, McConnell, Schumer, Reid?

Trump or Cruz, or both. America needs leaders, not followers.

[Catsrus]

Well said.

If you haven’t watched this, watch it.

Cruz trustworthy?

[chris37]

I started out being completely for Cruz. When trump announced, I made fun of him, called him a clown, made fun of his comb over, the way he speaks, all that.

But after that lady was shot in San Fran, I began to pay attention to what Trump was saying a lot more closely, and over time he convinced me that he is not a clown at all.

So at that point I decided I would support both of them, and I would vote for whichever one had the greater momentum in the primary here in Florida.

But, even though it probably is silly, the Cruz supporters here have turned me off to Cruz. It’s not even a little bit, I mean they turned me off big time.

I still have to qualify though, not all of them. A couple I really like and respect a great deal, so I do not include them at all in my anger about this, and they do not behave in such ways anyway.

But my point to the others is you think your outrageous behavior can’t hurt your candidate? Well it can, and it did, and that’s all there is to it.
