“Cruz may finish 3rd if he is lucky”

If he can manage to finish 3rd tonight and get 49% in Texas, his secret ground game will give him a fighting chance in the first national primary on Tuesday.

If we keep repeating this on every thread, it can happen.

Then Trump will be bought or intimidated into accepting the VP. Cruz/Trump to victory.

That was easy. (Well, it’s a good as some of the other scenarios I have read here lately.)

Trump is right. We must be good stewards of this land. Give it to the states, to sell off if they need revenue? In one swoop, Trump will attract the green voters...

“Trump wants more efficient government.”

Yeah, because history tells us when a candidate promises a more efficient Federal government instead of a reduction in size of the Federal government, that’s exactly what we get. And it’s all just wonderful.

Government isn’t the solution, government is the problem.

Trump has stated that he won’t cut services, he’ll cut spending.

Right.

“Trump has stated that he won’t cut services, he’ll cut spending.”

Except when it come to just about everything he’s proposed. Which requires more government to do.

I can see why you would want a purge.

Calling oneself a conservative while supporting a dishonest big government liberal oligarch who has been nothing but a failure in business like Trump is hard enough.

Being called on such silliness would cause massive cognitive difficulties.

No wonder we’re lost in the wilderness, seems some/most just accept the other sides premise(s) w/out any debate. Seems there’s 2-sides to this equation.

I had hope numerous Freepers, would be able to cite chapter and verse (excuse the pun) that gives the Fed. govt any such authority instead of just deferring, “Well, the State Con. says....”.

We’re not talking *territories* here, postal roads, or...

Does said land not reside within the State of XYZ? Was there an Amendment to change The Constitution? Were all the other 56 States to be the piggy-bank of such ‘stewardship’ by the ‘grace’ of State XYZ?

Then there’s no problem with State XYZ having ‘gun control laws’ on the books vs. the 2nd A., right? Except for that pesky 5th (and 13th), State welfare is just fine too?

Course, we’ve all seen the CO+ drug law threads...so why should I expect anything different vs. land-grabs, BLM, etc.?
