(This is Long but if you want to understand FReepers’ joy at Donald Trump right now, read it.)

At the earliest of this race, six months ago, say, Cruz was laughed at in the press, so I wasn’t sure he could get over the Palinization. I had / still have no idea if Cruz does have something in his past that will have him “appear to be” not what he is. For example, if he had a Laura Bush traffic death in his past, would we ever hear the end of how he is a murderer? If he had sex in high school and unbeknownst to him, the girl got pregnant and went on to have an abortion and never told him anything, but now comes forward to hurt his run, will he be a “Christian hypocrite?” Even, was he ever alone in a room with a female colleague who didn’t like him, who will now lie and say Cruz made a pass? Sobbing with Gloria Allred on TV? I knew these things would be tried.

So I saw a potential Jeb / Hillary nomination situation. I wised up this time and knew I could never pop a chad for Jeb, as badly as I do not want the murderous phony corrupt hillary as CinC. I resolved to fight for Cruz or another conservative, go down trying, and then abstain if a goper is the Republican nominee. Yes, I resigned myself to the USofA having another enemy President in Hillary.

Therefore, with that mindset, shared by a lot of other FReepers I am sure, to have Donald Trump come along and say the clear, unvarnished truth, I have HOPE again. He is unbeholden, he loves this country, and wants to see it great again. So what if he supported liberals or even if he is a liberal. To me, Trump would be preferable to Jeb or Hillary. Think about that last sentence.

President Jeb would destroy the country with amnesty. He would be namby pamby and stand for absolutely nothing. President Hillary will be very similar to President Obama, siding with Islamists over us, and profiting handsomely. The Clintons couldn’t even SPELL morality.

And imagine if Trump brought Cruz aboard as his Veep: hope only grows for this country to return to its Constitutional roots.

That is why FReepers like what Trump is doing, wherever it may lead. Cruz is by far the smartest and it shows. Right now, you see the media personalities’ and candidates’ IQs printed on their foreheads. Anyone ripping Trump a new one from either side of the aisle is too dumb to be a chess player. Anyone who can play chess can see that these people will become stuck, as Rush is saying. They won’t be able to walk back their scorn. They will appear wrong or just stupid. Yes. They appear stupid already.

Perfect example: Ben Stein said that he didn’t like what Trump said about HISPANICS. Really? Because Trump said nothing about Hispanics. Trump was talking about illegal aliens, and you would have to be a) stupid and b) racist to connect every Hispanic with illegal aliens. [my daughter is Hispanic and she’s never been near the border.]
