Then the anti-Trumps have nothing to worry about.
You're missing the flipping point. The "anti-Trumps" indeed have little to worry about as concerns Trump becoming President. He won't. Too many patriots know damn well what a danger he represents.
The point is that unless we deny him the nomination, the next President will be Hillary Clinton. Trump supporters are effectively greasing the conditions for a Clinton landslide, the loss of the Senate, and the loss of the Supreme Court.
That's why I contend that Trump supporters are fools. The are cutting off their noses to spite their faces.
I respect Cruz supporters, but they're also supporting a candidate whose chances of ultimate success are very, very shaky. Cruz has got to stop believing this fallacy that he can win only with the votes of conservatives. Why should moderates and independents vote for him when he says he doesn't need them? When his record in the Senate has emphasized obstruction (high-minded obstruction, but obstruction just the same) and rejected comity?
I know I'm pissing in the wind, but there's still one candidate standing who can empirically WIN the election and carry forward conservative ideas and conservative policy influence. And not a soul here (or, seemingly, among the craven Washington elite) supports him.
What's the use if we don't WIN? I'm serious - what's the flippin' use? What good do suicide bombers do? Is that all we aspire to be? Put up a madman who validates our anger, or an uncomprising purist who profiles to the right of Goldwater? And enjoy the sleep of the just, I suppose, when our nominee goes down in predictable flames?
Sorry folks, I want more than that.
I'm backing the true outsider. That's clear as day now that the Washington elite is flocking to Cruz, who makes no attempt to hide his contempt for them. The insiders are now with Cruz, whores that they are, and Kasich, the one candidate that can win, is being pressured to quit.
I fear there's nothing good that is going to come of this election. We were poised to have it all, and we're going to throw it away for the transient pleasure of a political bender.
