For those who may not have heard Senator Ted Cruz's speech today on the Senate Floor, here is the CSPAN video.
Passions are so high this would not surprise or upset me. The Republican power brokers are wickedly corrupt. I hold them in more contempt than Democrats. I expect Republicans to know better.
Ted Cruz has been exposing the Washington Cartel for a while now. You haven't noticed until now.
Course I have. You shouldn’t make assumptions.
And you still credit Trump for things that Ted Cruz has been doing all along?
No I credit Trump with showing a way to evisserate progressive and the news media and show them for for the paper tigers they are. But I would say Trumps arguments appeal to a voters emotional side. Cruze has something Trump does not have, that is the ability to destroy leftists positions with superior cogent arguments. This methodology appeals to voters who favor reason based arguments. To win this we need to appeal to both types of voters, reason based and emotion based. We must be absolutely fearless in making this appeal. And as I previously mentioned Trump has shown that the only consequences of taking it to the dim’s is going up in the polls. I have to congratulate Ted on the way he handled code pink. Now Ted needs to enhance the emotional side of his game. For instance what is a purpose of our liberty? And let’s stay simple here. Fundamentally Liberty allows us to live our lives as we see fit. To persue our dreams. Progressives polices destroy our ability to persue our dreams. This is true at all levels but especially for poor urban blacks enslaved by the democrats. So make the general argument and then make specific arguments aimed at the urban blacks about their situation, who caused it, how it was done, and how unjust it is. This is a factual, moral, and emotional argument. It will appeal to both reasoned based voters and emotion based voters. Reagan did this, Cruze can do this and Trump cannot. Btw I support Cruze.
The political landscape would change immediately."
Wow.
As truly horrific as Planned Parenthood is, it still is just another obfuscation ploy of the MSM Establishment to keep our minds off the absurdities of the "election process" happening now.
The Uniparty Establishment has to have known about the market for aborted baby parts for at least a decade; they have just chosen this timeframe for a new "Abortion War" so as to harden the wounds between left and right.
Dividing the populace is how they maintain their rule; Elites have no such distinction as "left" or "right" among their kind. (Their distinctions must be more along the lines of who can playact being a "left winger" or a "right winger" best? This might explain the strange delivery of some of the more despicable Uniparty hacks -- Boehner's waterworks for example -- or even Obama's lack of affect.)
People are scared to go third party for fear of a Hillary Presidency, but the destruction would be the same with Jeb.
As you say, taking down the two party system just might be in time to save the country.
The problem is the Uniparty Establishment are reading our posts and trolling our calls for precisely this type of information; and they can stage events, interrupt our internet, spin the 24/7 newscycle, create phony "left right" conflict as well as foment real conflict with countries that don't like us.
If modern totalitarianism has taught us anything, it is tyrants need to keep the populace on a "war footing" (or in some terrorized survival mode) to keep their minds off their enslavement, forever grateful for the mercies of Big Brother.
