“Politics aint beanbag. They’re going to have to take the gloves off sooner or later. Looks like Cruz came out testing his left jab first. And drew back a stump. He’s gone back to his corner now to think it over.”
Well here’s the thing.
Nothing Trump says will compare to what the Dems WILL.
And harrumphing on FR or talk radio isn’t going to make it go away.
People demand Trump get a “thicker sin”, then may I suggest the political right do the same, because after the primaries, the media isnt going to care what any of us thinks unless you are ready to get dirty, NOT CLASSY.
I’ll accept your opinion but I don’t like a fight that will lead to the RINO’s winning.
By the way, Ted Cruz’s fundraising operation never ceases in my mail box and I will support him $$$ as I have been in the past when circumstances allow, not because of emotional appeal.
Give me a break. AMERICAN heavyweight Trump will knock the crap out of GLOBAL Marxist Clinton from one side of America to the other. And the crowd will be with him all the way.
don’t want Trump and Cruz fighting
Then Trump should back off on Cruz!
Loose lips sink ships.
Divide and conquer, works every time and I still see it here every election cycle.
IMO this battle is against the elitist, not among ourselves....Trump and Cruz are the leaders in the battle and too many here don't see it.
JMHO.
“Give me a break. AMERICAN heavyweight Trump will knock the crap out of GLOBAL Marxist Clinton from one side of America to the other. And the crowd will be with him all the way.”
Heh, We are actually in agreement. I likely was just a bit sloppy in the prose. ;)
Jim, I don’t get it. I have asked over and over and over from trump supporters...tell me something, anything prior to when he announced he was running for President (as a Republican? still don’t get that) that shows he has a single sincerely held conservative belief. Here are the responses I’ve received:
1. watch The Apprentice, you’ll see (really?)
2. he’s created an enormously successful business, therefore he’s a capitalist, therefore he’s a conservative (ask Bill Gates about that)
3. He supports veterans (just like Dems do when they need their votes)
4. JimRob supports him and that’s good enough for me
I saw that you had posted a brief list, but even that made me say, “huh?” because you had things on your list like he raised successful children. You have enormous sway here, Jim. And while I, like you, support the things that Trump has SAID and the issues he’s highlighted, we have nothing to base any faith that he is or will govern as an actual conservative. And, in fact, we have volumes of evidence that he will govern as anything BUT a conservative. And as Rush has cited here today, his attack on Cruz was from a LIBERAL point of view. Is that really what we want and really all the more we hope to dare?
Rush calling Trump Donald McCain raised warning flags.
McCain supported our veterans?
McCain supported our MIA families?
McCain supports our Military? (seriously)
McCain supports staying out of places like Libya & Syria?
McCain supports denying financing and arms to terrorist groups?
McCain supports polices that are best for the U. S.? LOL
McCain supports closing the border and sending illegal alien back?
Rush, you’re entitled to get one seriously wrong.
LOL!!! Yes. Trump has been chosen by the same crowd that gave us McCain and Romney...
For cryin’ out loud.
We just might need some of those moderates in the general. Trump will deliver them.
anxiously awaiting an answer....
Trump must have a soft spot for Ted.
Of all the non-conservative positions Trump has taken, this is the one that got Rush’s goat? Better late than never, I guess.
He nor any of the other candidates are Trumps co-candidates. They’re opponents. Only 1 winner here. Everyone knows this.
I think this will get ugly way beyond what it is today. There are people on the stage with heavy luggage. What’s been off-limits so far, will soon get very public in the near future.
Megyn Kelly - Yep, duh.
Fox News - Yep. Fox hasn’t been conservative in better than 10 years.
Erick Erickson - LOL - yeah, the guy that jumped the shark with rest of “conservative media”.
Scalia - Nope
Ben Carson Yep -fair game he is a candidate
Rand Paul Ditto
Bobby Jindal Ditto
Rush Limbaugh Nope. Rush spreads the wealth fairly
He didn’t get it wrong....but you don’t understand context, so I won’t bore you with context....because you wouldn’t get it.
"Rush just denounced the report."
And the content of Trumps counter punch shows he’s no a conservative. I think Trump’s usefulness is running out.
He didn’t criticize trump. He said he’d be a better president than trump or Dr. Carson. He specially cited temperament and judgment. trump went WAY BEYOND a simple comparison, into specially denigrating Sen. Cruz as a maniac for opposing the GOPe and Mitch McConell
