Well, it’s not in line with mine!
This is not a good position to take. I am disappointed with Trump on this one. What is Cruz’s position?
He’s no conservative but I don’t think it matters much anymore. Some kind of insane mania has taken over and many people don’t seem to be able to see reason.
Trump is like the pied piper and so many conservatives seem to be eager to run off the side of the cliff:(
Oh boy, sentence fragments.
Who's got the Clinton body count PING list?
Hey Grandma, it’s called leadership and calling a spade of spade. If the other GOPe candidates would have done it, Trump wouldn’t be in the race.
Because we're tired of being bent over and getting the GOPe shaft. No more. Trump/Cruz 2016 or get ready for another 8 years of dummycrats, plain and simple. You will either side with an unstoppable team, or pave the way for the dummycrats. Choose wisely.
I disagree but fortunately that is something the Congress decides and they just passed legislation stopping the mass data collection of phone records. And you can thank Rand Paul for it. So it does not really matter what Trump thinks about it.
In all honesty there is no candidate that anyone is going to agree with 100%. I’m looking for 80%. I’m about 95% with Trump.
You can bet that whatever position Ted Cruz takes, that it is 100% in the spirit of the US Constitution.
On this issue, I don’t like him either, and he’s not my first choice as a candidate.
That said, if I found a candidate who agreed with me on everything, I would not vote for him.
I’d figure he was some kind of nut!!!
I'll go with Mr. Franklin on this one:
"those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety"
But please, please, please, Trump supporters - tell us why this clown deserves the support of any liberty-loving conservative.
What is your alternative to know more often about attacks before they happen, I am all ears?
Never mind the 4th amendment... "Conservatives" want to win no matter what.
Do you not understand why illegal immigration is the one conservative issue at this time above all others?
There’s no perfect candidate. Being a Cruz supporter you have already forgiven him for hoping in the sack with Paul Amnesty Ryan to enable Obamatrade. With the Iran deal fiasco that move by Cruz is looking worse by the day.
I am conflicted on this. We need security, but we need to find bad guys.
Not sure.
Yeah, I only agree with Trump on about 70% of his positions—and this is one area where we disagree.
But within that 70% are the most critical issues of the day.
Not sure that I’m right but nobody would want to listen to my conversations so I am sure they don’t pay attention to me. But if they have a way of focusing on keywords, or whatever, that would help them zero in on terrorists and their activities then from a practical standpoint I am ok with it.
An opening ng for Rand Paul here...and this argument he wins.
