Cruz said “We have gone off the deep end. This is absurd,”

Donald Trump said “Transgender people should be able to use whatever bathroom they want”

Cruz: Undeniably conservative
Trump: ???????

some get all bang out of shape when this has happened and then they twist his words and people only read the headline which is false. I have asked about 7 cruz voters now who are spouting this crap and not one of them has given me a part of that transcript where they state what he said.

Yet they ignore how a homosexual TX activist gave money to cruz for his campaign.

Go get ‘em Ted. You finally found your winningest issue. I’m so proud of you.

You can add this one to the other two you came up with recently: build the wall and bring back jobs from China and Mexico.

Congratulations! Onward to victory.

Part of making America Great again is not allowing government to force private business to do things against their will. Trump is for coercion, Cruz is for liberty.

Trump is now showing his New York Values.

When your house is on fire, you don’t call a plumber to fix the garbage disposal; you call a fireman to put out the fire before it burns your house down.

Immigration, trade, & terrorism are the three fires burning our country down.

While I believe Cruz would make an excellent terrorism fireman, he is in no way an immigration or trade fireman. Those fires will burn as just as brightly as they are now if Cruz becomes president.

I sympathize (and agree) with those concerned about social issues, but these were long time developing problems, the solutions will take a long time to develop also. The next president (Cruz or otherwise) will have minimal (if any) impact in turning them back.

Our national house is on fire; immigration, trade, and terrorism are the fires burning it. Trump is far from the ideal candidate, but he is the ONLY fireman in the race.

If not Trump, who?

Wrong, your genitals determine if you could rape a woman, then again, if you a woman in a mans body, you can sit in the men urinal and pee. Like I said, if your determined your a woman and not a man, get em snipped, and enjoy the ladies. Regardless, its not societies problem to solve, its your personal decision.

“Your going to find bad people no matter where you go, but you try to minimize the temptation. IMO.”

THANK YOU!!!! In a women’s bathroom/locker room women are in a state of undress or semi state of undress! That puts them in a situation where they could be raped/attacked.

Plus one thing you must understand not all bathroom stall have doors! The ones that do, don’t always lock properly. Now you want your wife, sister, mother, daughter, cousin to talk in and pull her pants down with a man in there? PLEASE PEOPLE USE SOME COMMON SENSE!!! No men in there.

“What about little girls in the bathroom with a butch lez??”

Are men who claim to be women who are attracted to women the same thing as lesbians? Aren’t men and their sexual attractions different from women and their sexual attractions?

Seems to me it’s bad enough with gay men and lesbians and bathrooms, especially with gay men. That’s where you get wide stances, glory holes, and predation. But now businesses can’t stop a man who claims to be a woman who is attracted to women from using the women’s bathroom? Come on, this isn’t that hard.

Ted is absolutely correct on this...and I applaud him for saying so in unambiguous terms.

Trump Supporters: Men can’t use women’s restrooms.

Trump: Men can use women’s restrooms.

Trump Supporters: Men can use women’s restrooms.


... I am beginning to understand how this works....

I think he just said that to make headlines knowing Cruz would jump on it.

Won’t happen at least according to the posts here. Why would he change his mind on a non-issue?

“I think he just said that to make headlines knowing Cruz would jump on it.”

that was the wrong thing to say then. It hurt the cause. You know a lot of people are upset over this.

I’ll agree -

Cruz had the better response..

Personally, I think Trump still has a problem dissociating with his business. He answered that question like the CEO of an international building conglomerate..

And that’s not to say that Cruz’s response was “only political” Cruz was mostly spot on with his response..

I think Trump needs to resign his position at Trump.. What he says on the campaign trail can hurt his business and if he puts his business 1st it’s going to hurt his campaign..

You know, we may have our differences, but I have to say that the Cruzlim call to prayer is one of the most beautiful sounds I’ve ever heard.
