In 20 years here I have never seen such personal insults between Freepers, even in 08 and 12. Calling each other stupid and almost looking for insults when done is intended was not often seen before. Newcomers are here with personal agendas rather than to learn more. Cruz and Trump are very different people and I guess FR supporters reflect that schism.

That is really amazing, the things you mentioned are the very things I find offensive about Trump.

I watched Trumps TV show one time and I detested him and everything about him. It amazes me that others think he is the messiah.

When he speaks I hear “hope and change, hope and change”. Just like Obozo!

Yuck, almost anyone but .trump!

It was a lighthearted comment about his sister. What did you want him to say, “I’d never appoint my sister to the SCOTUS?”

Yes! He know her politics, and if he disagrees with them, it should come as no surprise to her (but I think he shares her politics which is why he sees her as an option for the USSC or someone like her).

I have not seen one Trump supporter reference Trump as a messiah.

I see no one claiming he’s perfect.

We do think he is the best man for the position.

As for Ted, I cannot watch him comfortably for more than thirty seconds.

At ten to fifteen seconds in, I’m instinctively looking for a way to turn it off.

Cruz will never be president. He is unelectable, and frankly untrustworthy from a leadership perspective. His entire team is composed of BushBots I don’t want to see back in power. However he is a brilliant lawyer and should be Chief Justice, if there is a way to demote Roberts.

Cruz had a whopping 200 people at his Myrtle Beach rally yesterday.

Myrtle Beach is thin pickin's for conservatives. He should have tried Greenville or Columbia.

But I will say the Super Pac's have gone after Cruz with non stop commercials. Showing all of Cruz's lies on Immigrations B-1 Visas and Eminent Domain he supported in Senate Debate ...

Really? Do the superPAC's have anything to do with your showing up on FReeper to bash Cruz? And just mention in passing Beef A and Beef B?

You'll benefit by going back for a refresher on coat-trailing.

Trump and the "President Camacho" analogy.

That's insane. Camacho was the result of unselective breeding, who supervised a dead society, with no cultural or survival positive attributes. What's so darn funny about the movie is that it predicted the Obama administration!

PS: in the movie, a real unlikely and outsider hero and his mate, a women with an unlikely resume, woke everyone up and saved civilization.

Have you watched the movie?

Everything Levin and Rush say is true. Make your case for Trump, but it makes no sense to attack Rush and Levin for supporting a conservative candidate and defending conservatism from left-wing attacks, even when it is Trump that makes them (free market healthcare let’s people die in the sidewalk). It makes no sense to attack Levin and Rush for making the same case they’ve always made and believing the same things they’ve always believed.. PERIOD!

Cruz defeated the media's favourite, Donald Trump,

Ok. I don't get it. Half the posts say the media hates Trump. The other half says they love him. So which is it? Or does it hinge on whether you are for Trump or another candidate?

Cruz reminds me of Eddy Haskell from “Leave it to Beaver”.

Messiah was my word. It is the way his supporters flock to him like he was a rock star that brought that word to mind. I find his behavior very obnoxious but have no fear, I will vote for him if he wins the Republican nomination. My husband fears he will go 3rd party if he doesn't get it.
That thought brings up Perot and makes me very distressed.

I’ve heard that. I’ve heard mr. Haney on Green Acres.

LOL

His entire team is composed of BushBots I don't want to see back in power.

Ronald Reagan was saddled with a bunch of Bushbots, led by Bush 41 Himself, and managed still to lead an effective administration despite the Bushbots' constantly trying to paint Ronnie into a corner and "Option 'C'" him to death.

As for Chief Justice Roberts, I'd just ask him upfront for his resignation, privately. Who knows, it might work. He probably knows more acutely than anyone, what it means to have a man at the head of the Court who's vulnerable to blackmail.

Then Roberts can write his memoir about being blackmailed by Obama, and let the fur fly.

But to recur to "Bushbots" ..... How, in a future Republican administration, or a current Republican national campaign, would one go about excluding "Bushbots"? Making sure that nobody with any ties to Bush 41 or Bush 43 had anything to do with the campaign, or the Administration?

Richard Nixon once said about Bush 41, that he was one of those annoyingly inevitable people (because he knew so many people high in the GOP hierarchy) that one has to talk to, and that the best thing he could think of to do with Bush was to appoint him to something, just to make him go away.

Which thought brings up, for me, that long phone conversation Trump had with Bill Clinton before he announced.

That makes me a bit nervous all by itself.

You're welcome to go to FR's Iowa Forum...

I did just that. Thanks for the suggestion.

But...

The 9th Commandment doesn't say "Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor unless the lie has no measurable effect".
