The EU/Germany is being run by an East German communist traitor who is deliberately out to destroy Europe on behalf of her KGB masters in the “former” Soviet Union.

Sometimes Cruz outdoes himself. This is one of those times. If I were president I would offer sympathy to those injured and to the families and of those involved. Then I’d tell them as soon as they have political leaders that want to fight back, we’ll be prepared to help them,....but not before.

We should not be supporting a bailout for the NATO countries that have these BS open border policies. Why should we rescue them from themselves, if they are not willing to do it themselves?

Not a week goes by, that oily lawyer Cruz
does not defend the terrorism of Ayers, Soros,
or ISIS -— or lie -— or continue his endless
dirty tricks.

Cruz = Establishment = Obama = Romney

With some of the states that are NOW in NATO it is a useless organization. Kill it and try a different mix

What I heard from Trump was that he wants the Europeans to step up and take a greater financial and manpower responsibility. We already share leadership with the Europeans in NATO, but they spend a much smaller percent of GNP on Defense and they are reluctant to man up and send troops when we need them. This is in spite of most of the problems being in their own back yard. Trump is much more likely to forcefully demand that Europeans step up and ignore the hand wringing that the socialists will have over doing it.

Cruz is prone to rhetorical puffery. He still thinks he is in the debate club.

Donald, “the sky is blue.”

Cruz, “Trump wants you to think that night will never happen again. He wants you to go sleepless the rest of your life.

Cruz is full of verbal absurdity posing as information.

I see what you’re saying.

Yes, GGG, by all means shout this from the rooftops! The more people hear stuff that shows us Cruz knew exactly what he was doing when he aligned himself with a paranoid nutjob like Beck the better.

“What good is NATO going to do against ISIS when NATO countries are busy importing their own murderers.”

THANK YOU. It needs to be repeated that NATO is part of the problem, not the solution.

Russia Ramping Up Military Drills to Cold War Levels, NATO Says

Feb 5, 2016 - FoxNews.com

Russia has stepped up its military maneuvers to a level unseen since the height of the Cold War, according to a new report released by NATO Thursday.

Jens Stoltenberg, the alliance's secretary general and author of the report, noted that Moscow has conducted at least 18 large-scale exercises over the past three years, "some of which have involved more than 100,000 troops."

Those exercises included several simulated nuclear attacks against NATO allies and partner nations ..."

Cruz like his die-hard supporters on FR, seems incapable of mentioning Donald Trump without misrepresenting one of Trump’s position.

Ted Cruz's Case for a Reagan-Style Military Buildup

National Interest.org ^ | February 29, 2016 | Robert C. O'Brien

The next commander in chief will face a stark reality: for eight years, President Obama systematically drained resources from our armed services. It will no longer matter why or how he did it. All that will matter is what happens next.

While President Obama may have been hoping that unilateral disarmament on the part of the United States would result in similar behavior from other major powers, the opposite has happened. Both China and Russia are engaged in significant military buildups and aggressive behavior from Ukraine to Syria to the South China Sea. 

Iran, which had been restrained by one of the most punishing economic sanctions regimes in history, is now on a $100 billion military shopping spree primarily at the Russian arms industry checkout counter courtesy of the American president.  ..."

It’s not like NATO has been doing a thing to “fight radical Islam” anywise.

Sorry, but Cruz is clueless on this. Guy is still fighting the Cold War. He needs to wake up and join the 21st century.

Cruz did this yesterday. Perhaps if you ever listened you would understand why so many of us think Trump is a fraud. Why is it you cannot look at facts?
