US Ambassador to Mexico?

[Darren McCarty]

Let me put it this way. I might vote for Cruz. I won’t vote for Trump.

[2ndDivisionVet]

Is anyone here asking you to?

[Balding_Eagle]

I don’t think he was playing, and I don’t think he was playing 4 years ago either.

He was assessing, and 4 years ago his judgment said the time wasn’t right. This time he decided it was the right time.

-——Donald Trump wing of the Republican Party:-——

I was unaware there existed a Donald Trump wing of the Republican Party...

Must be a very small caucus .... Like of one....

[Responsibility2nd]

I don’t recall Don Trump running in 2012. That would’ve been a big story, I would think.

Seriously?

No wonder so many sheeple are on the Trump for President bandwagon.

Short memories.

[2ndDivisionVet]

So you have a link to him declaring his candidacy for president of the United States circa 2011-12? Love to see it.

[Resolute Conservative]

Yeah vote for a guy that has given millions to democrats including Hillary and Bill. No thanks.

Trump = democrat in a republican suit.

[bkepley]

No Cruz has more sense of pride than that.

[Toddsterpatriot]

Ted Cruz seems very eager to persuade voters that he's from the Donald Trump wing of the Republican Party:

The "used to be a Democrat, thought the Clintons and Obama were cool" wing of the Republican Party?

No, I don't think Cruz is eager to show he is from that tiny part of the Republican Party.

[Windflier]

I’m telling you its a tsunami for CRUZ.

I believe you're telling it like it really is. Did you see the results of the Breitbart June presidential poll?

Cruz by a mile.

[entropy12]

Hopium is very addictive!

[EEGator]

[entropy12]

You got it right..I am still a Walker fan.

But Trump/Cruz ticket will be impossible to beat.
Hillary/whoever does’nt have a chance!

Money + Brains = 1st stage Rocket Engine power.
Money to get the message out, Brains to construct the message.

The authors are on drugs or something

You have to read in a few paragraphs:

I'm joking, of course. I imagine that what Cruz is thinking is that Trump is peaking now, and that when Trump drops out of the race, probably early in the process, Cruz will be in a position to pick up his voters.

But the writer changes his mind a few times after that, so maybe he's bipolar or something.

[Reaper19]

The disadvantage being that Trump wants to replace Obamacare with British style socialized medicine, wants to raise taxes significantly on the job creators in this country, and wants to ban guns that look scary while making it more difficult in general (longer waiting periods, universal background checks) to buy a firearm.

Cruz on the other hand supports none of that being, you know, a conservative.

It would be fun to watch a debate between Clinton and Trump though. She could open by thanking him for his tens of thousands of donations over the years to both her and her family’s foundation and for declaring Bubba as one of the greatest presidents in history.

I think you're missing what many of us like about Trump. For starters, if we don't stop the invasion of the US, there's no saving the US. Trump isn't letting anyone have wiggle-room on that issue. Secondly, he's really stirring the pot.

While Trump is speaking out on the very real problem the US faces being over-run by those who enter the US illegally, Mitt, Mark, and Chrissy are having a sleepover.

Trump is making a real sacrifice in business dealings to make a difference. At this point, that's more important than all of those other issues.

And you say Cruz is better? I thought Cruz was our salvation after that magnificent 21 hours. But he wasn't changing things in DC, and on that very bad trade situation he made a deal with the devil. With Trump in there igniting things, Cruz seems to be getting his voice and passion back!

[nickcarraway]

Trump endorsed Romney. Does anything need to be said?

[2ndDivisionVet]

Back at ya!! Note the date.
