Free Republic stands for God, family, country! America!
"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, ensure domestic Tranquillity, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this constitution for the United State of America."
Securing the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity is our mission on FR.
We cannot secure the blessings of liberty with Hillary in the White House.
When Trump wins the lion's share of the primary votes, states and delegates and the establishment installs someone else as the candidate, you've handed the election to Hillary.
Trump is the only anti-establishment candidate in the race and has won the lion's share of votes, states and delegates and is on track to continue amassing the lion's share of the votes, states and delegates by direct vote of the people.
We the People have voted and are voting to finally wrest control of our government from the entrenched corrupt establishment, aka, the uni-Party.
Cruz, Kasich, et al are mathematically eliminated and cannot win the nomination per the voters. They can attempt to re-wrest the nomination away from Trump and away from We the People only by corrupt establishment treachery at the convention. And that will split and destroy the party and guarantee a Hillary win.
NeverTrump is a losing proposition and will lead to a loss of liberty and loss of country.
This is totally unacceptable.
After the corrupt establishment losing twice in a row to Marxist Obama, I'm damned tired of the corrupt establishment and damned tired of losing.
If you are a NeverTrump type person, you are working against our purposes on FR, so please opus out now and log off and let us carry on with our mission in peace.
Continue insulting us with 24/7 anti-Trump diatribes and insults, your opus will be assumed.
We will unite behind our nominee and we will win this coming election (with or without you) and we will get a handle on this divided forum very soon.
Hope you understand my position.
By the way, Cruz's campaign still refuses to answer the question whether or not Cruz will support Trump if he's the nominee. He's taking the GOPe route of preferring Hillary over Trump. This is also totally unacceptable.
No thanks necessary, thank you for the reminder that this is a crazy primary! I’ve got to chill a little and learn to not let others get under my skin. Have a good night Chris37.
What’s your point?
Why are you still hanging around?
Do your opus and be gone.
Ride the bolt like a man.
You magnificent bastard with your funny graphics !
I think you are up next pookie.
Enjoy the ride on the bolt.
Thank you, Onyx.
This post is for all diehard Cruz supporters who keep talking back.
You keep giving JR what old timers call: “lip”.
JR couldn’t have stated it more clearly than he did.
Unite behind DJT or TAKE IT ELSEWHERE.
I’ve had to discipline disrespectful school children in my 34+ years, and you (and some others) very much remind me of them.
They had to be firmly dealt with, their “lip” not tolerated. They learned quickly.
Button it, respect the boss, and obey what he said.
Decide to stay and behave, or, as JR says, “Take it elsewhere”.
One, I’m not a man so I don’t have to act like one.
Two, I’m not doing an opus.
It’s for your sake and the sake of others like you that I choose to stay.
If you didn’t have me, you’d have to invent me so as to have someone to abuse.
I will stay as long as I am free to support my candidate or until I am told to leave, and I don’t mean by you, brother.
Very much so!
I have just been trying to catch up with this thread and am on your post 348. As I understand the argument to this point:
Cruz can't get to 1237 so he should drop out and no one here should support his continuation to the convention.
Trump is the only one who has a chance to get to 1237 before the convention so everyone should support him although he might not get the magic number.
My question would be: If Trump does not get the 1237, does he have the same obligation to drop out as Cruz. If the threshold for him is reduced to something lower than a majority, does Cruz get a lower threshold also.
Your argument is that the process should be allowed to play out rather than have some last minute rule change to appoint someone who could not put together a majority.
If I understand your argument correctly, I would have to agree with you. When you try to short circuit the process to satisfy one group, you create the very dissension you might seek to avoid. These candidates are big boys and when they have no other choice, they will work it out. To use a sports metaphor, I want to win the super bowl, not the pre season.
Who is your candidate?
I think you are underestimating JimRob. He has a track record for tolerating other views and not zotting their proponents so long s those engage in civilized debate. I am not pinging JimRob because I don’t want this post to look like sucking up. It is not. I oppose Trump as much and as colorfully as anyone here but I am not feeling any heat.
If I told you, you would have to try to kill me.
Please do an opus. You seem to have good writing skills.
It’s been a while since we have read a really good opus.
As usual, you make little sense.
This thread is AWESOME.
It is? Or it is a startling but surprisingly accurate statement, given that right here on FR, many of the Trumpers all but denounce Christianity, and express the opinion that abortion is just hunky dory?
But it doesn't matter. Because the Trump love fest will be all over when Hillary buys her way to power. And then the fun will truly begin.
In other words, the Cruz cult is imploding, just like their anti-Christian candidate and his false prophet.
And I can’t stop grinning.
>> the Trump love fest
Better than the Cruz bitter feast.
