I’ve said it before in other threads. Trump is 100% American, a nationalist. He’s staked out clear positions devoid of PC wording. He has beat GOPe. He is a winner, not a martyr. I want a winner in 2016, not a losing martyr. And, I don’t really care about the little things, I want the broad strokes, which seems to what most Americans want. After Obama, after cycles of Republicans selling out Americans upon reaching DC, we need someone like Trump. Warts and all. Regardless of details, no one, of any party or persuasion doubts Trump’s belief in America and our exceptionalism. Can’t say the same for many or most of the others.
That’s refreshing, now please refrain from all the B.S. on the Cruz threads.
Btw I support Cruz because he’s been a consistent conservative fighter for these issues (and more): 1) Marriage/the courts), check Cruz’s statements vs. Trump as late as even this summer and fall and tell me who’s better on this issue.
2) The Budget-Cruz has consistently fought for fiscal responsibility.
3) Foreign policy-Cruz is 100% correct and seems most Reaganesque. I don’t really know Trump’s as it’s really less clear in his statements, even at the debates.
4) Trump might be ~slightly~ better on immigration, but they’re close to tied on this one, IMO.
5)Cruz has consistently been 100% pro-life. Trump (is he now?, even on the courts/judicial precedent?).
6)On Federalism/The Constitution Cruz has been consistently correct.
I know there are many more, this is just a few!
