There was a booth at the local Labor Day fair today representing a butter-like-products company. They had a wheel to spin, and they’d give you either buttered toast or buttered popcorn.
I've come to suspect that Cruz is the most crafty of them all. He opposes "amnesty" but defines it exclusively and consistently as a "pathway to citizenship." Cruz supports granting legal status to aliens while falsely promising that we can keep them as second class residents without ever giving them naturalization, believes the Constitution grants birthright citizenship and that it is an impossible fight to engage with (which he admitted even recently when asked by Kelly about his past words in 2013, despite all his carefully worded rhetoric that suggested the exact opposite), and Cruz has described his wife Heidi as a "conservative", comparing her involvement in globalist groups with John Bolton to deflect criticism, despite the fact that she is an open borders proponent and a definite leftist. Why lie about that? Even Reagan had a liberal wife. Her involvement with Goldman Sachs is another huge red flag, and probably explains Cruz's position on illegals. It's good for the cheap labor folks if aliens are not deported.
And then we can even talk about Cruz and TPP, which opens up another whole big can of worms!
Oh, but I'll add this one last thing: he actually comes off fake. He talks like a well-rehearsed machine. Even a YouTuber who did an interview with him mentioned that, when the camera was off, he was an entirely different person than what we see when the camera is on. I think that's a pretty good image, really, of the problem with politicians in the first place.
butter-like products - lol
even McDonalds is switching back to actual butter.
free sample for a wheel spin, interactive.
You're not conservative. You're a sissy making cheap shots against conservatives by spouting crap like what you just did.
” We cant move the entire population of Mexico, let alone the entire Third World, to the US.”
What! I thought that was the plan to ensure Democrat victories as far as the eye can see! Just look at California!
Publix had a wheel for several promotional items, including an octopus hand-puppet. Whatever reminds the public of your business, I guess.
That sounds strange, lol
Kathleen conscripted it from an older sister and named it Elsa, presumably because it is light blue with silver text saying “Publix, Mint Hill.”
“Trump talks and acts like a dingy, old chick.”
And yet he’s still beating the tar out of your guy.
rofl
Yes, like Biden. Obama and Hillary, on the other hand,
are so convoluted with secrets they are incapable of opening their mouths without careful planning.
Depends on the wrestler. Some are geniuses. Others are skulls full of mush.
How babies’ minds work.
I find Trump’s ramblings and stream of consciousness charming (and frequently humorous). I’m glad he’s always thinking fast and furious. It suits him, and it sure isn’t scripted, is it. Go Trump! You never bore me. And I even kinda understand you when you go off on a tangent. Almost all of us get the gist of what you say or want to say, and eventually you come around to the punchline. It’s just a winding road to get there, lol.
They (the MSM/Dems/GOPe enemy) can’t get you on being stupid, as you are a billionaire to the tune of 10 give or take a billion, and it takes a world of smarts and hard work to get to that pot of gold. And you graduated from the excellent Wharton business school with good grades, so in desperation they try to portray you as the mad rambler, the one who doesn’t make any sense. That accusation, of course, falls flat on its face, as we all get the essence of The Donald, understand him, and believe in him.
Actually, when answering questions Trump is usually short, succinct and to the point with his responses. His speeches are another thing, lol, and it is where he expends his excess verbiage. I love the man’s style, content, patriotism, and common sense. I like the way he thinks. A billionaire populist who is for Main Street, not K Street or Wall Street; who could ask for anything more?
Yes, that too.

You contradict yourself here, or are unclear in your reasoning: “He opposes “amnesty” but defines it exclusively and consistently as a “pathway to citizenship.” Cruz supports granting legal status to aliens while falsely promising that we can keep them as second class residents without ever giving them naturalization,”
Cruz has consistently argued for securing the border—through enforcement of current federal and state laws along with new stricter laws to be passed by Congress— and denying amnesty to current illegal residents. He has stated repeatedly, and for years, that there should be no pathway to naturalization and that the laws have to be enforced unilaterally and without prejudice.
Please also clarify how Mrs. Cruz is a “definite leftist”. They met while working on the Bush campaign and her work with Bolton should be an excellent bona fide for a conservative.
Cruz’s stance on TPP has been explained repeatedly. http://www.breitbart.com/video/2015/06/12/cruz-tpa-doesnt-give-obama-more-power-sessions-on-not-accurate-on-tpp/
I’m sorry that Cruz comes off to YOU as fake. Thousands of others who have been to his rallies disagree with that assessment. However, since it is a subjective stance, I have no empirical data to argue the point.
