We’ve been called Trumpanzees hundreds of times. There’s even a horrid, disgusting gif that goes with it, styled as a visual depiction of a Trump supporter.
What nasty, demeaning name, equivolating Trumpanzee, have Trump supporters used ubiquitously to describe Cruz supporters? What ghastly gif have you seen coupled with that name, to further degrade and debase Cruz supporters?
So you can muster, under pressure, a grand total of one actual flaw associated with Cruz. To offset mentioning it, you sing his praises in a discussion that is entirely focussed on the candidate’s imperfections. To further water it down, you feel compelled to offer a must stronger critique of Trump—again, not the subject of the discussion. You do concede you appreciate Trump’s attacks on the MSM.
Well thanks for your input. It failed to dispel my original concerns.
must = much
Is there some requirement that I be able to identify as many flaws in my candidate as yours? Doesn’t seem very logical.
If it shocks you that I’m more pleased with my pick than I am with a different candidate, then I’ve identified the source of your unhappiness.
Speaking as a former Cruz supporter, I am simply shocked and amazed how practically perfect Cruz seems to his most dedicated supporters. At the same time, I recognize the futility of arguing about it. Someone likened it to a sixteen yr old girl and the flawed boyfriend she thinks is faultless. Pointing out his shortcomings will get you nowhere. If Cruz’ great Beck, soccer balls and teddy bears adventure didn’t even flicker on your screen, then that’s all there is to that.
I sincerely wish Cruz was everything I thought he was when not only was he my candidate, but I couldn’t in my wildest dreams imagine supporting anyone else. I’m not happy to discover I was wrong. I’m less unhappy, however, than if I’d put on a pair of blinkers and ignored all the troubling signs.
Other that oblique references to Teddy Bears I haven’t heard you say a damned thing. I frankly don’t know what the hell you are talking about.
You must be 6 posts in, and all I know is that you don’t like Cruz, you don’t like Teddy Bears, and you don’t like having Trump’s bona fides questioned.
I’d much rather have you actually state what you dislike about Cruz, than this crappy game of “I’ve got a secret”. My skin is pretty thick, so have at it. But if my disagreeing with you is going to make you cry, then just let it go.
What a cranky post. Suddenly you’re in a rotten mood?
Fine, but it’s not my problem. Be cranky on your own time.
You completely misrepresented me with this post. Not one thing you said was true. Why people do that, I don’t know. It is counterproductive on every level.
Your post was also only semi-coherent at best. Do you not know about Cruz and teddy bears? Or do you know, and you just decided that being obnoxious about it was the right move?
I’m whiney?? I’ve bent over backwards to engage you in discussion and all you’ve done is whine that I don’t have a long enough list of faults for my candidate and then got hissy about my “strong criticism” of Trump, which was about as light and delicate as it gets.
Cruz and teddy bears? Not a freaking clue what you are talking about, and it would appear that I’m never going to find out from you.
“strong criticism”
You put double quotes on something I never said. Plus, you completely missed the point of what I actually did say.
Is this really the best you can do?
It is not my job to vet your candidate, nor am I the sole source of info related to Cruz.
If you want to know about this issue, here are the key words that will work in any major search engine:
‘ted cruz beck teddy bears’
I now fully understand why people are flaming you, and it has nothing to do with Trump or Cruz. You are just an insufferable whiner.
You know what, I can live without unveiling the great teddy bear hubbub that rocked your political world. I’ll just stick with the Constitution.
‘You are just an insufferable whiner.’
Strongest case of projection on record.
‘You know what, I can live without unveiling the great teddy bear hubbub’
Of course you can. Must not dare expose yourself to any info that runs counter to your Cruz confirmation bias.
How old are you? 12?
Old enough to quote people accurately, and to properly vet a candidate. Both areas where you could use improvement.
Well I live in the South and I’ve heard it a thousand times. If you are that sheltered you are not up to surviving what’s ahead.
You properly vetted candidates and settled on Trump, because.. teddy bears.
‘I now fully understand why people are flaming you’
People aren’t flaming me and I never said they were. Either your reading comprehension is materially nonexistent, or you purposefully posted a falsehood. For your sake, I hope reading comprehension is to blame
Don’t worry. Cruz’ past problematic actions/messages re the unstemmed flood of foreign invaders/loss of US sovereignty need not concern a cultist. Cultists spend all their time smearing Trump supporters, precisely so that they needn’t worry about Cruz’ ‘imperfections.’
