Oh, we can't emulate the Cruzer's?

If you think Trump has not been unfairly targeted, you are wrong. He has been attacked from both sides, conservative and liberal.

By the mere fact that you call Trump supporters by something meant to elicit disdain shows me that you are no better than those you rail against by choosing to refer to them as Trumpster's. Trumpster rhymes with dumpster and that's where his supporters belong, according to many Cruz supporters. We have even been called not really conservatives along with a host of other assessments. Bothers me not in the slightest because I have thick skin.

It's a two sided tug-of-war, but of course you see the Trump supporters as being the most egregious offenders of the two.

Just a little advice, in the future if you want to come off as a neutral observer, try to hide your obvious disdain of one side in particluar.

I was called a “flaming liberal” on this thread.

Full disclosure: I’m still Trump first, Cruz second, and disappointed with both (for very different reasons), but with nowhere else really to go...

They all get targeted.....always the lead will get it worse as long as the media projects them as the lead, if or not they are is subject to question of course.

But you know as do all, that Trump wants the media and he will create events and situations in order to keep the media engaged WITH HIM...good bad or neither the ca,era's must be rolling on Trump....THEREFORE he leaves himself wide open for ridicule because he does say horrendous things, insulting things etc...celebrities do that...and that's what he does...act.

Also, stop putting words into my mouth I've never said nor have I implied....that's exactly what some of you Trumpsters do because you're frankly paranoid. I've never seen the word “dumpsters” used for Trumps supporters until your post. Sheesh you guys just need to cool you jets!

But I do question greatly Trumpsters Conservatism...very much. ....and with very good reason as has been expressed time and again on the threads....by me and others as well.

Your candidate does not hold conservative positions...he supports socialized medicine/government funded healthcare.....touchback amnesty...big government and to increase it's scope....federal funding for planned parenthood....outlawing super Pac’s which is freedom of speech....he supports bail outs for banks......affirmative action....his tax plan is progressive...won't side with Israel....and the list goes on....

....these are NOT conservative positions...they are liberal positions.

Further and on a moral/social level...I guarantee you Cruz nor other candidates would be having ‘Booty calls’ for rallies...nor would they be boasting and comparing their having sex with many woman as....Trump... “It is my personal Vietnam. I feel like a great and very brave solider,”....when the man actually had 6 or more deferments from serving...not to mention his gambling casinos and the like...and he's on his third wife....

As you know there are three 3 legs of the conservative stool...physical conservative-social conservative-national security conservative. Trump does NOT stand the test...yet Freepers are supporting this man....mindboggling.
