"Trump’s brain seems to work just fine."

The only way I have to judge that is to listen to the words that come out of his mouth. I have seen no evidence that supports your statement.

Almost sounds like you’re talking about Ted.

Spare me. Ted is a fraud. The man has been making hundreds of thousands of dollars per year and has been giving less than 1% to the church.

I listen to Christian radio all the time and they’re 24- hours a day pushing Ted. They should be careful where they’re putting trust. It makes me ill how they push Ted and then discuss the importance of donations to the church.

And Ted’s excuses for tithing less than 1% were absolutely lame. You can trust him. I have strong reservations.

What Cruz has done to collect these “Cruz-friendly” delegates is legitimate. They will still represent the voters on the first vote. Cruz was smart to do this.

However, Trump can always use his money to sway enough delegates back to him, as well.

Spare my Sir take a look at FR it has become a mouth piece of Trump. In fact I don’t understand why Trump isn’t footing the bill for FR.

As far as you listin to Christian radio, just because you have it on doesn’t mean you are listening.

Yeah. And I am going to church today and I will be tithing.

Thank you for that observation. Those who don't grasp the game, as it has always been played, as Reagan had to play it against the GOPe and Bushites, yet he outsmarted them and prevailed, well then they just don't know what they are talking about and its little more than sour grapes and excuse-ism. I went to a primary this year back in the states where a guy all decked out in Trump stickers and badges started raising quite audible holy hell about being denied entrance because he had forgotten to register as well as bring picture ID. To him, in his hat and cowboy boots, paranoidly screaming about how it was 'all rigged by the damned establishment' it was clear au contraire what a royal dipshit he was making about his ownself and how he reflected very poorly on his candidate. I welcome people new to the political process but they have to also learn what it is and what it is not.

No one ever said they weren't legitimate.

What is said is that Cruz knows he cannot reach the 1237 number and is just trying to throw the nomination to the convention.

This is against the spirit of the primary system.

Convention fights always leave the candidate chosen weaker and Cruz's actions set a bad precedent for future elections where the goal of the candidates will be just to keep the forerunner from getting the required number so the convention will decide.

“I feel like I need a shower after seeing that clip. Incredibly disturbing.”

I was beginning to think I was the only one. That clip gets very few responses.

The GOP says it doesn't want the people to vote.

The people will remember in November.

RE:”The GOP says it doesn't want the people to vote.

Trumpees threatening to support Hillary in the general is nothing new.

Given how liberal he is having her as a second choice makes perfect sense.

It makes even more sense if we consider how Trump and the Clintons are good friends.
