@Right_in_Virginia  Trump went against Cruz a long time ago.  Trump did a lot of mudslinging and out and out lied about him.  Yet you defend those actions? Trump is smearing DeSantis another conservative but yet you pile on the bandwagon smearing him as well.

IF a conservative doesn't make it into the WH this time around we've lost what's remaining of our country; yet you continue to sit by and make excuses for Trump.

The media hasn't changed my mind about Trump, Trump has changed my mind about him.  His actions against conservatives and conservatism doesn't set well with me and I'll be darn if I cast a vote for him or defend him.

I realize that @DCPatriot and I also realize that our country is hanging by a very thin thread and only conservatism is going to change that.  Anyone who stomps on conservatism and conservatives is only harming this country.  So -- no, I cannot vote for someone who I feel is going to be detrimental to this country.

I don't think that's true at all.  And again, that begs the question, after Trump is out of office himself, why does any politician, DeSantis notwithstanding, owe him permanent fealty?

@Timber Rattler

Where did I ever say different? My bitch with DeSanctimonious is that he was falling behind in the election,and Trump came to campaign for him and that made the difference. DeSantimonious even SAID it made the difference.

Then,the next thing he did was declare that HE was running for President and competing with Trump.


 This is not a monarchy but a Constitutional republic.  Trump should just accept the challenge and run on his record rather than simply engaging in childish name-calling and smear attacks, like he did to Cruz in 2016.

Unlike your BOY in Fla,I don't remember Cruz doing or saying anything comparable. In fact,I posted yesterday or the day before that it was a serious mistake for Trump to go after Cruz. Anybody that wants to get into a verbal pissing contest with Cruz is making a VERY serious mistake. He is one of the smartest men in public office,if not THE smartest,and while I am not a "Cruz Groupie" that follows his every move,I honestly don't remember Cruz starting a pissing contest with anyone unless he had a serious reason AND some actual proof to back it up.

They themselves don't demand it, at least for themselves. They demand of others for their leader

You nice people are focusing on hitting it over the fence, instead of concentrating on just getting into scoring position...so a measly single base it can bring him 'home'.

First concentrate on getting rid of the enemy...THEN worry about saving the country.

And Donald Trump is the ONLY person on earth that can get us there.  (See 2017-2020)

And there it is

MAGAs have no interest in reducing the size and scope of the federal government

They just want to wield it's power

And let's honestly look at the period from 2017-2020. Out of control spending. Milley and Wray appointed by Trump. Left an economy in worse shape than the one he inherited. Started a losing trend for the GOP. And that spending you  dismiss is one of the causes of the inflation we are seeing today

Facts are a stubborn thing

Bull. Every time Republicans have acted Republican, it has been at Conservative insistence. That you approve means you nice people are part of the problem, @DCPatriot .

That's funny you should mention that because i had a discussion regarding the Biden presidency with a relative and the issue of debt and spending came up and I was told that Biden had to spend the way he did to correct the damage done by Trump

So, the morale of the story is, any and all spending is justified depending on the political leanings of the spender

It's hard to put in terms what 34 trillion in debt means to average folks. You, and I, along with other taxpayers owes the feral government over $260,0000. I know I don't have that lying around

Methinks what really bothers you is neither Cruz nor DeSantis had/have the evidence to prove what Trump said is a "smear" or "mudslinging".

Someone who can't define conservatism? I don't know where that is coming from.  Further what you think and what is reality are miles apart.

 Nope. You will never admit Trump has done anything against conservatism or conservatives.   :seeya:

It's supposed to be a contest of ideas, not a sh*t-slinging contest.

The burden of proof rests with Trump, not Cruz or DeSantis.  Trump made the charge.  He is the one who must prove it.

Funny everyone was told we hit it over the fence when Trump was elected and we had majorities in both houses, how did that work out long term? To use a somewhat baseball analogy, since your stuck on them, The team manager was not capable, he had the team in place but was more concerned how he looked than having a winning season. So my position is the same as a team owner, I'm firing the old manager and lookin for a new one. You go right ahead and stick with the guy that doesn't know the rules of the game or how to manage his players.

She knows that, but it's her habit like Trump to make false statements and then bail when called to back them up. Trump is a liar, it goes beyond being an ego inflated reality star, he's bullshit walking just like his oh so very politician promises and and then walk back, like the huuuge and wonderful concrete walls on the border he promised and than walked back to half asses metal fences that were easily climbed, cut or rammed through with vehicles. My position is simple, NMT...No More Trump. I agree he has been harassed and railroaded, but he is not competent to head our government and work with congress to achieve lasting changes. What good is achieving everything by EO when the very next democrat erases everything achieved? Been there done that, not interested in rinse wash repeat.

@DCPatriot  DJT was supposed to "lock her up" and "drain the swamp".  He did neither. So, how is it that you believe that he is the only person on earth that can get rid of the enemy?  He didn't do it the first time, so why do you believe the second time around would be any different?  I just don't see your logic.  What he'll select better people?  He'll make deals with the leftists/marxists? Perhaps he's borrowed Felix the Cat's magic bag of tricks?  *****rollingeyes*****

What enemies did Trump get rid of while he was in office?


And Donald Trump is the ONLY person on earth that can get us there.  (See 2017-2020)

Let's see.  2017 thru 2020?  Trump appointed Reince Priebus, William Barr, Tom Price, Alex Acosta, Elaine Chao, Nikki Haley, Mark Milley, James Comey, Andrew McCabe, Christopher Wray, Rod Rosenstein, David Shulkin,  .  .  .


PS:  And save all your BS regarding spending....Obama gutted the military...the universities...the DOJ and the intelligence agencies.

It is the spending that empowers those who are destroying our country.  The existence of the Democrat Party is solely dependent upon government spending.  Without all the deficit spending of the Trump years, the Dems wouldn't have won anything in 2020.  The Democrats were on the verge of self-destruction.  Until Trump.

Conservatism: a philosophy involving a limited government that operates on a balanced budget, entering wars only when absolutely necessary, and a society that embraces universal marriage between one man and one woman, immutable sexes from birth, without divorce and each couple bearing children that on average replaces the number of people that die each year.

But that is obsolete, you tell us.
