Mark, I not only think but I know you are wrong here’s why.

I’m a cruzer here in Texas, from a NE inner city kink of where trump comes from.

When we were younger on the corner or were ever, we would crack jokes so bad making every body laugh where you thought Tony was doing his brother or mother or whatever. On the corner there never were any bounds where we could crack up on each other. Sure some guys got butthurt but usually the next day we were out there laughing again.

I can guarantee Trump will be able to convince Ted it was all part of the game.

Trust me, a Trump/Cruz ticket would kill em

Politics is a blood sport. Always has been. Always will be.

“Civility” is for losers.

No hatred here. Just generic disinterest.

I was definately enjoying things more when the trio of Trump-Cruz-Carson seemed to be triumphant in blocking out the loathesome GOP establishment, and watching Christie, Jeb, Rubio, all going down in flames. It was fascinating to follow.

Eh, but since then, my enjoyment wilted. The whole primary season seemed to turn into the “Jerry Springer” show. Just endless dumbness. Haven’t even watched any network news, or listened to any talk-radio for a whole month now. Which is a record for me.

Insults to Trump are unacceptable and classless.

Attacks by Trump are Patriotic.

Don’t like it? Tough, this is FR and FR doesn’t exist to debate who the best candidate is. That has been decided already.

Trump nor Cruz was my first choice, but I’ll crawl over broken glass to deny another Socialist president.

No, not really. Candidates are decided by votes except where they're not. And votes are taking place tonight. Debates are over. You can argue if you like but it won't determine the candidates. Perhaps you haven't argued persuasively enough before.

Hillary will be the First Woman President, just as the Democrats planned it by splitting the GOP. There is nothing more pathetic than the gullible voter.

Me Citizen? Oh contrare. If FR has to zot every last account on here, including you, in order to maintain Trump purity I am 150% for it. There can be no dissent on an issue of its magnitude.

Why aren’t you at a rally this evening? Do you lack faith?

Most of the nastiness was precipitated by Cruz trolls (or Hillary trolls posing as Cruz trolls) who were apparently paid by their masters to hack old but inactive FR accounts so they can pose as long time members.

In the last few days, JimRob has zotted nearly 50 of the worst of them and things have SUBSTANTIALLY settled down since then.

You don't understand what faith is, do you? But besides being anything than a sarcastic loser, what can you add to the discussion you so desperately want to have?

Twitter, Facebook, social media in general. Hate is news. Hate is influencing.

So if Cruz gets the nomination on 2nd ballot you’re voting Hillary? or staying home?

“The GOP left conservatives behind a long time ago, but with this bickering and infighting, all we are doing is letting them destroy us.”

Conservatives are enemies of the populist Trump supporters. They are no longer any part of the Republican Party. We need to be destroyed so as not to in any way damage the Trump machine.

The things I see said about Cruz and those who support him serve no good purpose, and yes similar things are said about Trump and his supporters, but not to nearly the same extent.

You have to get past your denial. Cruz fanboys are some of the most vicious, hateful entities ever to populate this community: non-stop derogation of both Donald Trump and his supporters, with Ted Cruz himself leading the way in insulting GOP voters.

The more that Cruz's campaign implodes, the nastier his supporters' attacks become. That means they're about as nasty as humanly possible at this point.

Vote Trump

The best formula has never changed: Trump/Cruz.

Early on I thought this could happen, but not now. There's too much hatred between them. Each has personally attacked the other. If that was the ticket, it would have to be forced on both of them.

If Trump picks another Republican candidate to be his running mate, most likely he would pick Rubio. More likely, he will not pick any of the other candidates.

That is the biggest bunch of BS i've seen on here in three days.

I doubt many have read FR more thoroughly in recent months than I have, and I assure you Cruzers posts are orders of magnitude more vituperative and venomous, hateful and ugly, than those of Trumpsters.

Even a cursory reading would make this clear. If someone wishes to do a full blown academic/statistical study, I would encourage and welcome it. Cruzers on FR followed the tone and behavior of their leader: hateful, sick, and most importantly totally uninformed and happily so.

YOU are asked very nicely to LEAVE. If you Cruzers hold, as you claim, the higher moral ground in areas of civility, then do as requested and LEAVE.
