I’ll take 16 years of Cruz, the full-spectrum conservative, first, and then, if Trump has given up on Universal Healthcare, given up his support for Abortion and truly become Pro-Life, and quits moving to the left on Gay Marriage, maybe he can be POTUS.
No one who is verbally opposed to homosexual "marriage" can be elected in 2016.
I know I know. But Trump won’t take a backseat to anyone and right now he’s got the momentum and the media’s ear. But he needs Cruz to keep him guided and appraised of Constitutional reforms and directions. Trump will cone around to all the things you mentioned. You should see the speech he gave in South Carolina and then you would know where he’s coming from.
I’m still punching it for Cruz but it may be that God is working through both men right now. Let’s see what happens.
