   I told her that her Landlord hates my guts already, but she insists WE add a back yard gate to HIS Fence.
   What have I got to lose, as long as the lock is on my side, right?    :shrug:

Yeah, maybe two binkies and a drinkie.

It's interesting that Donald Trump is not as petty and idiotic as some of his followers.

This thread is insane...yet it reflects the internal failure of the GOP in this era.

First, Cruz is not a RINO...not even close. And I'm as solid of a Trump guy as you'll find anywhere. Second, Trump was very unfair to Cruz in the primary...borderline unethical...and Cruz made an unethical turn or two himself. But politics is a brutal affair and sad to say we need that kind of brute mentality right now in the White House...because the alternative is graceful defeat.

This whole discussion reflects the NT vs Pro-Trump struggle inside the GOP and across conservatism generally.  Like Cruz and Trump, we may not like each other, but we sure as hell have to be smart enough to understand that we need each

other if we're going to fight back this Socialist tide that's fast approaching. Trump and Cruz set a great example...they toss aside the personal animus and focus on the bigger fight. God willing we should all have the wisdom to hold our noses and follow their lead.

What  was unfair?  I know that ted pulled some "do do" on Trump, and Ben Carson and Marco Rubio. After ted begged to speak at convention, and had his speech Ok'd. Ted CHANGED IT, then got on AF1 with Obama. I don't trust ted at all. I will hold my nose and vote republican down the line, even if some are Rino's.  I support president TRUMP, 100%. I really would like to know what was unfair.  President Trump is not a politician. ted,,,is.

No, you don't know that Mr. Cruz pulled some "do do" on Trump, Ben Carson and Marco Rubio.   You've got it backwards.   Facts are pesky things, aren't they?

It's easy to forget what Trump did that led up to that. It looks like Trump is smart enough to know he's going to need all the no votes he can get with the coming impeachment trial.

Trump did what?  Led up to what?

Really good post @libertybele and I second all your sentiments there.  @Frank Cannon always leaves out the part where Ted Cruz voted for Trump and said he was doing so.

Does anyone have proof, that ted voted for Trump?  And, then some say, that ONE VOTE, made Trump president?  lol
I feel like, I am in the twilight zone.  I've  been following politics for over 12 years now.   When it came down between Trump and Hillary, the real choice was TRUMP or lose our country, in spite of ted.

Again, I plan to vote republican down the line and hold my nose on the rino's.

We can argue this crap all night, but to what end?

It was a primary, and it got dirty...to the detriment of both parties. It does no one any good to rehash the bitterness from the primary. Cruz and Trump are grown up enough to look forward, all of their followers should do the same. More importantly, a blind squirrel can see how both are huge assets to conservatism and the GOP...so lets do all we can to help them both. A party by definition is an alliance of people who differ on some issues and there will always be variance on how people perceive different candidates...but that's bickering over the layout of the furniture while the freight train is approaching your front door.

Quit fighting over the stupid stuff and focus on the real problem...the Dems.

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards.

@corbe   Yes.  I don't read @INVAR any more, but I know him well.  He's is kinda the NT equivalent of @LegalAmerican .


Ecusssssssssse.  me?  I totally support president Trump!  I am not,  an N.T.  I supported president Trump before he was president and predicted he would win back Aug. 19th and my prediction was pinned on the forum for a couple of weeks. Not this forum.

I will vote republican down the line and may have to hold my nose on the rhinos, but I know what is at stake.

Ok. VOTE TED CRUZ.  Happy?

it's hard to understand why the NT's here cling so hard to their bitterness.

Bitter clingers?  Sounds like something Obama would say.

Nice dismissive post. I watched it all. So you are saying, in your opinion, "this is what happened".
Thought so. Candidate Trump did nothing wrong.  Dems and left, lying media have been slandering him since May 2015.
Trump is blunt and correct and none-p.c.  Same as I am. I totally get him.  I just wanted to know what was un-ethical. You had,,nothing.

NOTHING WAS unethical,,,just your perception.  Good day.  :seeya:

Making up the whole 'Lying Ted' meme for starters.  Just like you making up the 'stab the President in the back' BS.

   NY and PA flipping Red, now that's funny!!  Trumps win in PA was an aberration @Frank Cannon.  What are you smoking?

Are you kidding? Our legislature is GOP along with a shitpile of elected officials outside of Philthy and Pitt. Also we have this guy who knows how to run for reelection unlike Ted....

But I think Democrat Casey is going to be re-elected to the Senate.  Barletta sounds like token Republican opposition at best.

   Trumps razor thin margin in PA would be obliterated in 2020 if Scranton's favorite son, Biden, ran.  Pennsylvania for all intents and purposes is still BLUE, to this Texan anyway @Frank Cannon

    I've been wrong before.

   Great, SuperTrump flys in to save the day.



    Color me, unimpressed.

Maybe he wouldn't be much help at all.  Ted Cruz always did fine without him but now that he has supported the President he isn't doing to well.
AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

She's not stupid but she certainly is a troll.
