“For many of us who started out being Cruz supporters and then got on the Trump Train, Cruz’s problems started long before the NY primary”
I bailed when I saw him ceding the stage to Trump last fall and letting him do the hard work.
If you aren’t going to get into the scrum, then people will go for the guy that is.
As a Christian who tries to be sincere about it to the Lord, I repeatedly prayed for wisdom to prevail in the race. The more I learned about Ted Cruz, the more pretentious he seemed in the spiritual realm. Donald might also have a lot of puffery in the worldly realm, but at least it’s only worldly. He’s not getting in God’s face. He hasn’t kept up a blasphemy.
And that’s another excellent point. A president should try to be decent and wise. But he shouldn’t presume to be America’s godfather and we shouldn’t be looking to him or her for that. Churches can and should be talking independently of the world of faith and morality and salvation and such issues, whether or not earthly governments agree.
I was an early Cruz supporter, as well.
What tore it for me was when Cruz blamed the violence of the anti-Trump protesters in Illinois on Trump—A page directly out of the Leftist playbook.
” I found Cruz to be a slimy liar who would do and say anything to get elected. In other words, it was about him and his ambitions, and not about We the People. “
That’s all you really needed to say! He fooled me too initially!
