As correct as your post is, Catsrus also has a point.

Time was, I was an enthusiastic Cruz supporter way back when he first announced and I dismissed Trump as the biggest ringer in the race.

Then I listened to Trump’s speeches and rallies, grinned as he took down the media, and cheered as he sent Jeb from the frontrunner right into being a tippy-toed nose-picking crybaby.

But here on FR, you could not say one positive thing about Trump without several really nasty messages from Cruz and/or Walker supporters about how you were a chump, or a dupe, a cultist, a crypto-liberal, or various other nasty comments.

There were Trump supporters who dismissed Cruz plenty, yes, but the difference was that from what I saw, the Trump supporters weren’t the ones being condescending, name-calling, holier than thou, and just generally nasty for many, many months. They tended to keep their negative comments strictly on the things that Cruz had done in the Senate.

But now the Trump supporters are getting fed up and hitting back, even and especially some who enthusiastically supported both candidates in the earlier months.

Just what I saw, both as a Cruz supporter and a Trump supporter.

I wish that the supporters would get along better than this, but there are just a few very, VERY loud voices who are getting VERY tiresome and who you just cannot escape from!
