Further, many of the Trump supporters were Cruz supporters at one time but were turned off. I left over TPA. Others have left since.
Originally I was for Cruz also. What turned me off was the constant e-mail barrage asking for money. That stopped once I followed the advice here on Free Republic on how to stop the e-mail solicitations.
As for why I switched to Trump? Well there are a lot of reasons, some of which are emotional not cerebral. Mainly though it was the fear I could see in so many of his opponents and potential opponents campaigns.
Plus I thought it was interesting that as long as he was a ‘donor’ to political campaigns he was a fine upstanding citizen. As soon as he decided to run for the top spot, (Presidency), he became a incarnation of all that is wrong in America. Well at least according to the Politicians, Pundits, Media and especially the Political Consultants who he didn’t need to run a campaign.
So I am at peace with my choice for now. How it all turns out in the end... well we will all see that, won’t we.
I withstood the barrage of begging emails until Ted voted for TPA and I withdrew my support. I clicked the 'unsubscribe' link one time, and it worked. Others have had more trouble getting off his email list.
