Rationalize away but don’t expect people to not point out the truth. You are actively working to elect Hillary Clinton if Trump is the nominee and you continue to try and sabotage him

Reagan would rebuke your childish fit of ego and spite. You would be wise to learn from his 1976 example.

Don’t you love the Trumpettes.

David Duke says he’ll vote for Trump, tells an audience to vote for Trump, and says he agrees with him but in their minds that’s not an endorsement.

But simply saying you won’t vote for Trump is an endorsement of Hillary.

They’re as malleable as their candidate

Rubotio & Bush have really only been the ones I’ve “attacked”.

Cruz started as my #1 then went to #2. But I don’t think he’s got the chops to go the distance. Hence his #2 position. Carson I like, he’s a nice guy. I don’t want a nice guy. The others were background noise.

I have however, layed into a few of the others supporters, or more probably GOPe anti-Trump provocateurs. A handful really. But I don’t mind giving them both barrels.

I think Trump and Cruz should team up.

Is it #NeverTrump for you or more like #ForeverHillary? Enquiring minds wish to know.

Never again will people vote for a monster "So the other guy doesn't win."

That trick has been played on the electorate for way to long. People have had enough of big government and corruption, and neither fascism on the right (Trump) or socialism on the left (Hillary) is the answer. They're both different sides of the same coin.

IF Trump takes the primaries, once again, the small government conservatives have no candidate to vote for.

#NeverTrump

Sure, Trump loves the KKK. Oh and he hates those damn dirty Jews, like his daughter, son in law, and his grandkids.

Oh, and let’s ask Diamond and Silk, the Trump Girls, what they think of your crap.

Go crawl back under whatever rock you slithered out from under.

Here is a prediction for you. Trump loses the general because conservative evangelicals like me will sit it out.

Trump has (solid) Tea Party support.

Solid.

This is a nonsense article.


Exactly! Tea Party was Donald Trump’s first MAJOR support and they obviously have not left him for any other candidate.

Thank you, I won't read it. With that said, I do know Tea Partiers that will support him to break the Establishments and potentially DC's power hold on us. Myself? I have very mixed feelings about Trump while I so get what he is doing and darn near reported it in real time and tried to wake people up that it was real.

The funny thing of it is, Trump will "el-kabong" the E-GOP and do what the Tea Party could never do.

Many Tea-Party types that played by Marcus of Queens-berry rules got their arse's handed to them. We trusted the likes of McConnell that they would help us, man did we get screwed, spending against us and working in concert with Dem's so that we never changed their power-money paradigm.

Those Tea Party types that ran under the radar ( Tea party groups not going for 501(c)(3) status,) & those that focus in on opportunities ( like Cantor after he crossed us ) won big and continue to thrive.

I still can't get over he will change it from the outside, one man vs all of us working from the inside and sometimes the outside, and we were thwarted at every turn once they understood us. Maybe it is the fact that Trump keeps changing ever so slightly so that they can't understand him...

——Trump is a big government progressive. ——

Trump is not a progressive....

But if elected, he will like big government.....

He will learn that “ the art of the deal” will not work with democrats like Reid and Pelosi....

He will let them keep the government as large as they want it as long as Trump gets to say....I cut the best deal ever, we won....

Ouch

Truth hurts, eh?

The Trumpalinas all argue the same way. Tell a fact about their candidate and they introduce 100 different new arguments.

Of course, I never claimed any of the things you said. But what I posted about David Duke was true. Never said The Don loves the KKK, or hates Jews.

The Tea Party is a movement that has no real leaders or figure heads. Anyone who claims to lead the party or speak for it is a fraud. There will be some who supporters the Tea Party who will never like Trump but I would bet most TP supporters approve of Trump’s take no prisoners approach.

Former top Ted Cruz adviser Rick Tyler says conservatives won’t stop making their case against the likely nominee.

oh well, no point in reading any farther then...

We're so happy, you're so happy. Just as long as you stay happy, we'll stay happy.

At the very least, he can hope that The Don will be nothing more than a “compassionate conservative.”

But anyone who believes he will shrink the size and scope of the Federal Government is deluding themselves

Trump has called Gore-Bull warming a hoax.

Again, Trump is a Dr. Jekyll and Mr.Hyde. He SAYS what you want to hear, but DOES something else.

Trump got the Tree of Life Award from environmentalists in Israel because of his support to end global warming.
(Contrary to what most people were led to believe, it was NOT an award for his faith, his Godliness, or support for the nation of israel.)
