The attitudes are stoked by the hate mongers at National Review and other GOP establishment and NeoCon organs.
Anyway.
"So, then, despite eight years of failure under a Democratic president, and with Hillary Clinton Donald Trump — widely regarded as a completely untrustworthy woman man who has put pursuit of money and power above the interests of her country anyone but himself — as the Democratic Republican candidate, Republicans America will still lose.
Fixed it
Nothing has changed much...1983 NYT…
“His alternating skills of charming some individuals and riding roughshod over others has earned Donald Trump a reputation in some quarters as someone not to be trusted. He reneged, for example, on a promise to donate to a museum the Art Deco bas- reliefs on the facade of Bonwit Teller’s - bulldozed to make way for Trump Tower. It was a sin deemed unforgivable by landmark preservationists. But the only negative comments about Donald Trump these days are given off the record.”

why? might have something to do with intimidating lawyers whose boss loves and enjoys lawsuits. The same person who wants to loosen those rules.
If people can put aside their strict principles on the constitution, TPP, TPA, and Corker to vote for Cruz, who wasn’t even naturalized until he was in high school when his mother finally filed the paperwork - then those same people should be able to put aside some principles for Trump. If Cruz won the nomination I would not be happy but I would still vote for him.
More and more Trump supporters are wishing death upon Americans
Soon Trump supporters will hate everyone
The thing that I think is hardest to deal with are the accusations repeated over and over again, which are not supported by any details of why the accusation is made, or more accurately, what the factual basis for it is.
To claim Trump did not disavow the KKK is never supported.
The claim that Cruz is a chronic liar is never supported.
They are merely repeated over and over and never discussed in an open and rational manner.
If we do not address the real issues in the campaign with the serious and life-threatening issues confronting the USA on the national and international sphere, we are going down.
Though I would pick Cruz, I very much appreciated Trump’s recent statement about his health care initiative. That is something I can evaluate and actually use in my decision-making for a candidate.
They all need to step away from the platitudes and start making proposals.
Just my opinion.
Abortion has a lot of parallels with the Hallacust.
Eminent Domain is certianly communistic in nature.
You have no leg to stand on with your belittling the boys of WW2.
They were fighting for Liberty.
We dishonor them with our complacency. You dishonor them by misrepresenting what they were fighting for.
Look at the scores of boys that lied about their age to go fight.
Your post shows one thing for sure, Trump, Cruz, Hillary, Bernie, Biden, Rommney, aren’t going to change one single thing, not as long as we are so easily mislead by words and refuse to see deeds.
Ronald Reagan has words for you.
“A man who is 75-80% on my side is a valued Friend and Ally, not my enemy”.

What in the last 40 years have any GOP President done to stop the ever increasing number of Abortions?
I know this falls on deaf ears at Team Cruz but the fact remains, We are a Constitutional Republic that rests on the notion that the people’s Representatives in Government know how to compromise and negotiate. Cruz record demonstrates a total inability to actually govern anything.
This notion that Cruz will ride into DC and dictate his 100%er terms to everyone else there is simply wishful thinking.
Really think Clinton, “Cult of Sanger and Abortion”, is going to REDUCE the number of abortions or is she going to do things that will massively increase them?
This “Never Trump” meme is the behavior of petulant children looking to spite everyone because their desires were not granted. It has nothing at all to do with anything resembling principals or reason.

The problem is neither is trump He wants to use the government to fix things that it should just stay out of I am bed sad that in the primaries even real conservatives are caught up in the cult of personality following trump He is entertaining and gores everyone’s ox but at the end of the day even his supporters admit he is not a conservative
Screaming a lie loudly does not change it to truth.
Try making a case for your candidate and drop the hysteric personal attack posts like that one and people might start taking you seriously.
Until then you will be treated as just another irrelevant screaming child.
If Trump is destroyed and Hillary is elected there will be revolution
The problem does not lie with Patriots but with the blind and/or corrupt GOPe of which Dennis Prager is a mouthpiece. Marco Rubio is a traitor. Those who support Rubio are Globalist enemies of the United States of America. Folk at FR know that...whether Trumpsters or Cruzers. Dennis Prager represents those who would destroy our sovereignty. What he thinks means nothing to me. He and his Globalist friends have ruled our Country for many years but now we’re finished with them. Go cry to the GOPe globalist/neo-cons at National Review or Red State or go Third Party with the boys at the Weekly Standard. Dennis Prager has very little cred around here.
Can someone explain to me why so many posters have glommed on to the "hate" theme? That is the language of the looney left.
Anybody?
I would suggest that the GOP has lied to us for decades, and the hatred is due to the GOP establishment. I think most if not all of us on FR can agree to that. The divisiveness here is based on the candidates and the possibility that once again, we might get screwed. Thus, the teeth gnashing at each other.
I agree with Dennis that potty mouth has no place in our debate. It is a hallmark of the Left. You can’t get two paragraphs into anything they’ve written without being assaulted by F-bombs.
People don’t get it. Trump is the 1st wave in a multi wave attack. Trumps job is to smash the defense and open the road so the follow up waves can reach the objectives.
I hear what you said about Cruz often, that he was not successful.
What is a Senator, who is one of 100, supposed to do to be successful?
He advocated and gave extended filibuster for conservative causes on the Senate Floor.
There were more RINOs in the Senate than he could defeat since he had one vote.
What in you mind, is a victory under such conditions?
Advocacy, though unsuccessful, can be the seed of a movement to get other like-minded people into office.
But to say he did not pass any legislation is to say that one Senator cannot rule the Senate.
And there you have it. Reasoned debate and civil discourse, Trump-style.
I don’t listen to radio talk show. I don’t have the time anymore. Is it normal for conservative hosts to plot against other conservatives running for office?
Telling Cruz supporters that their candidate should drop out so Rubio supporters (open border globalists) can beat the Trump supporters - all who listen to his show (except maybe Rubio “moderates”) - seems nutty to me. That he’s surprised to be getting negative feedback from conservatives is even nuttier.
If I were one of his listeners this is the message I would hear: Don’t vote for the two conservative candidates (Cruz and Trump) and throw your support to the open borders Rino (Rubio). Maybe Prager was at the Fox meeting with conservative media people, about talking up amnesty and Rubio.
We live in interesting times.
Maybe because many Anti Trumpers throw out that attack at Trump regularly. People are merely pointing out the hypocrisy of accusing the other side of what their own side is doing.
