Good point. I would note that most Cruz supporters indicate their readiness to support Trump should he be the nominee. I do not hear anything similar coming from the Trump people.
I would vote for Yeb! if I had too...
Im sorry Cal Thomas guy does not care about power...as a pundit he has a job and that is about it
What if you addressed his concerns for a change
The average worth, not including Trump, of the contenders is about 3 million dollars (Forbes).
The last thing I want to see in the white house is yet another lawyer.
How can you tell when a lawyer is lying? The fact is, that is exactly what they get paid to do. Therefore, they are all liars. All things being equal then, I want a non-politician.
The reason Trump is dominating world media is because his platform is anti-political.
Or more accurately, anti-globalist political.
It has come down to this.
Pretty much all of the politicians are Globalists.
No borders.
No nations.
No countries.
No national identities.
No cultural identities.
No historical identities.
No freedom to protect ones self and family.
No freedom of speech.
No freedom of thought.
No freedom to keep wages earned.
Trump says yes to all of the above.
Trump stands for sanity. Any politician who stands against borders, as witnessed in Europe-istan, does not care if their citizens are robbed, raped, and murdered.
They do not care.
In fact, they encourage it.
Trump is the last hope to maintain the flickering light of freedom.
He is far from perfect. Perfection always requires time, and time is what we do not have.
We must deploy the Trump bomb.
There will be collateral damage, but it must be deployed now.
NOW we are facing an EXISTENTIAL global threat. Huge portions of our nation's leaders---political, corporate, academia, media---have fully bought into the globalist agenda and stand to profit from it greatly. They hope to be the 1%-10% who are the oligarchy at the top of the global food chain, behind walls, in gated communities, with armed security, while forcing the other 90% to live like the third world--in America, everywhere. All the same. Disarmed. No freedom. No freedom of movement or speech. Unlimited migrants owning our streets, rapes and crime accepted and not any attempt at preventing it. The streets safe for thugs and gangs, and normal people at their mercy inside or outside their house. Random terror attacks weekly or daily. Imported labor to do all the jobs, from gardening to computer programming.
Now, we don't have the luxury to argue over conservative vs liberal. Maybe, someday. But now there is ONE BATTLE, period: GLOBALISM VS NATIONALISM.
What do globalists look like? Ted and Heidi Cruz. Look at his work on TPP/TPA, Gang of 8, Gang of 22, Amnesty, FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND H1-B VISAS for Indian engineers, computer techies, business professionals. Look at Heidi's work history: Washington insider on "free trade," "derivatives", "equity firms", TARP---hundreds of billions to her employers, JP MORGAN and GOLDMAN SACHS senior executive. Millions given at the drop of a hat to Cruz in exchange for Washington influence. Look at who is funding Cruz's campaign (Banks, Goldman Sachs, tax scofflaw Robert Mercer, NY Gay Mafia) and look who endorses it---GLENN BECK.
Our only hope is to STOP GLOBALISM NOW.
Cal Thomas is a perfect example of an oligarchical establishment Government class elite, living in the past. And I believe all that Grecian Formula and Touch of Gray has socked through his scalp and into his brain.
Yea, enough so to vote a documented liberal.
Exactly.
Well said.
I think what everyone one in America should say to his neighbor is:
“Any politician that does not support the wall does not care if you are robbed, raped and murdered.”
It’s an easy thing to understand.
Hear hear!
Spot on.
“documented liberal.”
I give private persons a pass on changing political positions. Once elected I’d expect them to adhere to policies they ran on.
I do not allow the same latitude for politicians when they change theirs while in office. Or worse, lie about them.
You shouldn't - changing political positions between the previous election cycle and the current one is exactly what an unprincipled opportunist would do.
Nonsense. Since when is denying folks freedom to change their mind a conservative principle.
A private person is not applying to be hired -or campaigning- under any set of principles or policies.
I see you haven't even tried to refute this obvious truth.
denying folks freedom to change their mind
Silly straw man - the point is not to "deny freedom" but to exercise appropriate caution based on red-flag facts.
So some private person who voted for Obama should not be able to change his mind and vote for a Republican this time?
You’re right. What an “unprincipled opportunist”.
Good lord.
I’ll go back to ignoring you.
Two straw men in one sentence: nobody's talking about anyone "not being able" to do anything; and Trump is this time not just a voter but a candidate.
I won't be ignoring your bogus arguments.
Why do we have to test Trump’s conservative principles on one of the most powerful positions in our government? That is quite a gamble to make.
Quite the opposite. It's an opportunity you can't afford to pass up. The choices are, certain death with a Dem, varying degrees of death rattle followed by certain death with the GOP politicians running, or roll the dice with Trump.
Once you weigh the possible downside with the probable upside, it's no gamble at all.
I will not be party to voting in Trump. I’ll write in my candidate and leave people such as you to own the Trump, Clinton or Sanders presidency.
How negative your outlook has become. You’re saying there is no future for the U.S. Donald Trump is no conservative. He will not be the one to pull us back from Obama’s policies, seeing as he espouses most of them.
