I have already said I’m skipping the ballot line if he’s the nominee. I’m through playing the lemming for RINO candidates.

Trump was lying then, or is he merely lying now? He’s been on every side of most of the hot button issues of our times. He has zero credibility with me, and he always will.

Unlike donnie or his trumpanzees, we believe in honor, morals, character and the truth. Donnie does not know the definition of any of those words nor any of the 10 commandments. I will either not vote or write in Cruz.

Trump is no RINO. Hell, he’s not even a Republican.

Yes, the dems have their democratic socialist and “we” have our very own budding nationalist socialist to contend with. Oh joy.

Hey. We know that. All of here no that you’re going to sit this one out if Trump is nominee.

You’re a phony just like this Cruz.

Grow up.

The only way to defeat Trump was to ignore Trump. He could only ratchet up the rhetoric so much before he sounded like a complete loon, but everyone went toe to toe with him.

Sounds good in theory, but it wouldn't have worked against how Trump has run his campaign.

When he comes out with a statement that there should be a moratorium on Muslims coming to this country for awhile, the press couldn't ignore it. They shouted "Unconstitutional", but then as it was discussed in the world and the country as a whole, it turns out it's something a president probably actually can do.

Trump says Hillary got schlonged, and the media went into an uproar. So the country spent a week or so coming to terms with how political correctness has taken over in our country.

He says Cruz should get that natural born citizenship question squared away, and the media said "Birther!" and Ted tried to ignore it, but Trump kept saying it until people started looking into the question and found out the issue wasn't as clear-cut as Cruz wanted people to believe.

Trump keeps bringing up that he'll build a wall and Mexico will pay for it. He makes it such a campaign plank that the media can't ignore it. For now, it remains to be seen whether he'll get it done or not. What matters now is that he's reminding people that we've been demanding something be done about the uncontrolled illegal immigration at least since the Reagan years, and not a damned thing has been done about it by the politicians the voters keep sending to Washington.

Except when pressed about it in questions on the campaign trail about their response to Trump's latest outrageous statement, the other candidates haven't weighed in on those issues. They've been doing everything they could to try to ignore what Trump is saying. But still Trump is controlling the conversation in this primary season.

Re> I support Ted in doing whatever he can to derail the orange fascist.

You’re right. The media has to be all over it. Got it. The competing candidates were the ones that were wrong to ignore it.

I am far more anti-Trump than I am pro-Cruz.

Trump is master of this game. Rattle the opposition, trash talk him, screw with his head...it’s probably put billions of dollars in his pocket on deals, the this primary is just one big fat beautiful deal!

This is interesting, but not as much fun as when President Trump starts doing this to Americas enemies, starting with Hillary, and then on to ISIS, Iran, and so forth.

These fights will pale in comparison.
