What has happened to Free Republic? [What difference at this point can it possibly make?]

Posted on 03/17/2016 3:13:11 PM PDT by katwoman5779

Since Obuma was elected to POTUS, I have been coming to Free Republic to get news, opinions and a few laughs. Most of the serious posts were bemoaning the out of control government and what could be done about it. "Oh Whoa is Me!". Then along comes a constitutional conservative. For the first time since Ronald Reagan, we have a constitutional candidate running for the GOP nomination. This man was elected by conservatives to go to Washington and stand up to the elites that no longer listen to the American people. He didn't go to Washington and "fall in" with the crowd. He went there and stood up to them just like he said it would - calling a spade a spade. I'm sorry, but I don't understand how otherwise intelligent people can fall for the likes of Donald Trump. This man was donating to the same people we were fighting to throw out of office the last eight years. Suddenly he is a conservative after years of joining with the liberals to promote big fat bloated government. He is not an outsider. He has been greasing the palms of the slime bags in Washington for 30 years. He can't even define what conservatism is. Wake up America. You are no better than the sycophants that suck up to Obuma. You can't see that Trump is just pushing your buttons with his rhetoric - just like Obuma pushed his sycophants buttons. The hate I see on Free Republic for Ted Cruz, Mark Levin and all the other great conservative leaders remind me of liberal websites. It is disgusting.

As a n00b I posted to him thinking he was being facetious, I got the full mean drunk treatment. Epic flaming.

**chuckle** That's our Bert, all righty! :)

He never bothered me, but he went off on enough people that he was finally escorted firmly from the premises, like a Trump protestor. I seem to remember several "reinstatements", but it's been a long time.

Ted Cruz is not, I repeat NOT, a constitutional conservative. Only low info voters think he is a constitutional conservative simply because that is what he calls himself. High info voters have looked at his record and decided he is a GOPe uniparty globalist hack.

Thank you! Worth repeating.

We conservatives are a minority in the Republican Party.

No you self-righteous holier-than-thou Cruzers are a minority for which I thank God.

Yea. Me too. The thing is, either Trump or Cruz is ok by me. I’d crawl over broken glass to vote for either one to prevent a democRAT from getting into the White House.

Some here are so set, their candidate is the “one” and they will not vote for the “other”.

It boggles my mind they’d allow either dem to get the white house because “their guy” didn’t make it.

#75 I am glad you acknowledge that. Now remind us what Donald said in answering the wall and deportation questions at the last TWO debates and what he reiterated this past Weds.

Hint: At the debates he said “Megyn, Everything
is negotiable.” This weds. He said when asked how, he said he would get both party leaders together and Neegotiate a deal.

He never has said anything about the Constitution or rule of law.

So there is What Donald said he would do. Even you admit the nonsense he says at his rallies is pure B.S.

So there will be no wall.Deportation won’t happen he will negotiate with the C O.C. on how many low skilled laborers get in to clean trump resorts and Agricorps.

He will also continue Corporate welfare like ethanol mandates .

Because as you said, he’ll do what he said he would

I’m often amazed that long term members of FreeRepublic parrot back media talking points verbatim in defense of their so called conservative position. Have they any idea?

You should have been here in 2000 when GWB was handpicked by the establishment to the dismay of many.

Welcome, noobie.

“Trump has never held a political office”

That’s a plus in my book.

Your post is mean-spirited and unkind to fellow FReepers. That is not nice. :-(

Sounds like you are miserable. Perhaps you need to go away. Why be miserable? I know it’s tough not getting your way all the time. But as I tell my kids when they have a spoiled brat attack, if you can find a better home go for it. That usually shuts then up real quick.

Haven’t you heard? The term “conservative” has been highjacked this cycle. EVERYBODY is a conservative now with an “R” behind their name.

Look at Linday Graham, McCain, even Neil Bush “R” civilian.

Hang around and watch the entire GANG of EIGHT call themselves “conservatives” to slowly roll out and endorse Cruz.
