Re:  Ted Cruz

The only explanation I can fathom for his comments is self-preservation.  The Democrats are beginning a move to disqualify Republican candidates for office by tying them to an act of sedition against the government of the United States.  Ted Cruz does not want to lose his own qualification, so he is positioning himself as an opponent of sedition.

What Ted Cruz should do is tell the Democrats to pound sand, and to stick their standard straight up their collective asses.  Why in the hell do Republicans allow Democrats to hold them to a standard that Democrats themselves don't believe in?  Cruz had his moment to lead by example here, but he cowered to the Democrat narrative instead.

I am proud of practically everything he has said or done up until this point, but this is a deal breaker for me.  This is where we part ways.

I think DeeCee is like Skull & Bones, in that everybody has dirt on everybody else, and that counterbalance is all that keeps them all out of prison.

No, we have a fascistic movement in the DNC.

Hmm.......so both have fascistic movements when what is desperately needed is a 10 year bowel movement.

Dear Mr. Raskin, here is a tolerable definition of fascism, with the false duality of left/right politics (the original fascists were all socialists, so fascism is, in general, a left-wing phenomenon):

Source:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fascism

Now, let's review the facts of the current situation.

First, the ultranationalist aspect is present, but in a veiled form to-date.  In 1930s Germany and Italy it principally manifested itself by the government making preferential choices based on the individual's perceived ethnic background.  Only individuals with the right ethnic background were entitled to the benefits of citizenship.

Now, consider today and determine who is doing that now.  That would be the democrats, who have divided people up according to skin color, and have decided that economic benefits should go preferentially to those they describe as people of color ("PoC"), and should be denied to those they describe as "white" (whether they are, in fact, Caucasian, anglo-saxon, or not).

So, on the ultranationalist point, that would go to the democrats, not the republicans.

Second, the aspect of dictatorial power is being reached for by the democrats.  It is they who are trying to deny political participation to their opponents, primarily through making democrat-friendly election fraud a permanent aspect of the system, and by trying to disqualify anyone who is right of center as being complicit in the fake insurrection of Jan. 6.

So, on the dictatorial power point, that goes to the democrats, not the republicans.

Third, on forcible suppression of opposition, that has already been started on the left by means of so-called "cancel culture" in which individuals who are identified as opponents of the democrats/the left are punished economically for voicing opinions contrary to the democrats agenda.  Tied to this is the attempt to disqualify political opponents through claimed association with the fake insurrection of Jan. 6.

So, on the forcible suppression point, that goes to the democrats, not the republicans.

Fourth, on the point of strong regimentation of society and the economy, it should go without saying that belongs to the democrat party.  It is the democrats who are attempting to rigidly segment people into groups based on their skin color and ethnic background, with a graded level of moral agency that correlates with skin color, and who want to rigidly segment the economy through government subsidies, mass unionization, and outright control of the economy.

So, on the regimentation point, that also goes to the democrats, not the republicans.

In other words, on almost every aspect of what makes a particular political group fascist, it is the democrat party, and their left-wing fellow travelers, who are the fascists, not the republicans.

I’ll ask again.

 Who here has unquestioning support for Ted Cruz? And what lies on this forum have been told about Donald Trump?

You make a claim and you’re demanding I back up your claim. No,  the burden is  on you

@LMAO

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.
