More sundance? Yay!
Let compare real attacks the left can use against our candidates during the general election.
Christianity Today
This sort of political discourse is starting to affect how evangelicals talk about Trump. A notable exception is Russell Moore. He has consistently presented a line of argument—and not just name calling. His major thesis is that Trump is immoral by Christian standards. This is a fact: from Trump’s owning of strip clubs to his bragging about sleeping around to his Nietzsche-esque notions of power. Moore believes that a leader’s moral behavior will affect his leadership, so he argues that no Christian should support a candidate like Trump. This will not convince all Christians, but at least it’s an argument grounded in the fact of Trump’s moral behavior.
Charisma Magazine
“The late Dr. Jerry Falwell Sr. would be rolling over in his grave if he knew the son who bore his name had endorsed the most immoral and ungodly man to ever run for President of the United States,†John Stemberger, president of Florida Family Action, said in a statement Monday. “Trump is a thrice married owner of casing with strip clubs and would give us the first ‘First Lady’ who has proudly posed in the nude while supporting gay marriage and funding Planned Parenthood with taxpayer money.â€
Unique in So Many Ways
Indeed, Trump would be like no president before him.
The first to be married three times, cheating on the first two (and probably the third).
The first whose wife appeared nude in a magazine.
The first to boast of his sexual proclivities, claiming to have had sexual relations with some of the “top women in the world.” (This is who Sarah Palin is supporting?)
He will be the first that has owned casinos with strip clubs.
To proudly proclaim that he will seek revenge against his personal enemies “as viciously and as violently as you can.”
His wife will be the first first lady that has posed for lesbian porn.
And with that last bullet in mind, do you really think for a minute that Trump opposes gay marriage?

Why Donald Trump Threatens to Trump the Gospel
Donald Trump talked about his Christian faith Saturday, but said he’s never sought forgiveness for his sins.
The event is a gathering sponsored by several socially-conservative Christian organizations, including the Family Research Council, a socially conservative lobbying organization; Liberty University, the world’s largest evangelical university; and the National Organization for Marriage, a group established to prevent the legalization of same-sex marriage.
Trump, who told CNN earlier that he is both anti-abortion and anti-same-sex marriage, said people are surprised to learn about his Christian faith.
“People are so shocked when they find ... out I am Protestant. I am Presbyterian. And I go to church and I love God and I love my church,” he said.
Moderator Frank Luntz asked Trump whether he has ever asked God for forgiveness for his actions.
“I am not sure I have. I just go on and try to do a better job from there. I don’t think so,” he said. “I think if I do something wrong, I think, I just try and make it right. I don’t bring God into that picture. I don’t.”

“sundance,” the paid Trump staffer, pretending to be a journalist!
If I were “sundance,” I’d keep hiding behind a fake name. No shame.
You would think their credibility would be utterly destroyed by now
“Doubling down” is a Trump maneuver.
Oh no, a verbatim quote?!? ANOTHER SMEAR!!! ;')
Yeah, ain’t he a hoot!
Things had returned to normal on FR for about half a day. Then I guess the shock wore off and the Trump propagandists are back with the same garbage.
They give being a Sore Loser a bad name.
To his credit coachisright was gracious and conciliatory.
Wow, I’m shocked Cruz NEVER apologizes.
Sore Loserman.
He’s a hypocrite.
Prove he’s a paid Trump staffer.
You can’t, but that doesn’t stop your petty fantasies, does it?
Some Consistent Conservative.
Dumb, counterproductive, cut-off-the-nose-to-spite-the-face crap.
Placemark
“Wow, I’m shocked Cruz NEVER apologizes.”
Which is why it’s all the more curious. Possible sanctions from the GOP?
Cruz would have come in second if he didn’t pull this trick on Carson.
Nasty dishonest tactic. Shame on Cruz.
