“My whole point here is to try and let people know that if Ted does not make it, Trump is going to be who I support against Hillary or sanders. I think the inverse should also apply.”
I was a Cruz supporter, even giving him money when he declared. I don’t dislike his policies, in fact I like them better than Trump’s in many cases...but I think that Cruz would get smeared in a race with Hitlery. Trump is about 70% of what I want, and is (IMHO) electable. I believe that it would be a “shocking” (to the MSM and conventional political pundits) landslide for Trump in November.
My first vote for President was for Reagan in the 1980 primaries and General. The mood now, and the attitude of the entire political world toward Trump, are virtually identical to those things in 1980. Take a 2016 story, and substitute in Reagan’s name for Trump’s, and you have the 1980 story. The only new thing is having GOPe people saying that they’ll vote for the Dems.
We came into the political world at the same time.
And I agree.
