Trump hammers Cruz as senator holds back endorsement: 'He shouldn't even exist'

[LadyLiberty]

Funny, coming from the camp that won't even participate in primary debates because they think he's entitled to the nomination.
  Like his son's orders to your buddies the Dilley Meme Team to "get him?"
 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But that is obsolete, you tell us.

Conservatism must be rendered irrelevant in the minds of his true believers because Trump can't be defended based on conservative principles.

[LMAO]

Now, next time I or others ask you a question, perhaps we'll get a response from you rather than you deflecting and squirming away from the actual topic.

Hell will freeze over and the planet Pluto will spring life before that happens.

And based on the posting history of a couple here, that does seem to be the tactic

However, one of the claims made was that Donald Trump wanted to nationalize the oil industry to pay for healthcare. I couldn’t find that claim anywhere, but I found this

https://news.yahoo.com/trump-pledges-expand-drilling-pay-041745324.html

Bloomberg) -- Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump pledged to expand oil and gas drilling in remote areas of Alaska as a way to pay for Social Security benefits, a trade-off that is unlikely to pass muster with Congressional budget scorekeepers.

[LMAO]

You would never drill enough oil to pay for Social Security benefits. And even if you drilled every single bit of oil in this country, the glut of oil on the market would bring prices down


The economic illiteracy of Donald Trump, and his supporters, is astounding. They have the same childlike mindset as the left when it comes to fiscal and economic matters.

[Right_in_Virginia]

@Right_in_Virginia  No actually it comes from you grasping at straws trying to deflect as I don't recall you ever asking me to define conesrvatism; perhaps you've asked others.  Are you trying to honestly have us believe that Trump didn't smear Cruz or DeSantis??  Are you trying to have us believe that neither Cruz or DeSantis are conservatives?? Perhaps you are trying to convince yourself and others that Trump is a conservative??

So, the bottom line is:  you're unable to define the political action plan you're betting the farm on.   :

No harm, no foul.   Carry on.    ☮️

[LMAO]

US oil production hit a record in 2023. Yet we are still running close to  $2 trillion deficits.

But I don’t blame Donald Trump. I blame his supporters who eat up and regurgitate his stupidity without doubt without question

[sneakypete]

A president who is obsessed about how he will be written about in the history books is a problem

@LMAO

What YOU call a problem,rational people call a positive opportunity.

[sneakypete]

The new president of Argentina is slashing spending and dismantling unnecessary government agencies and privatizing industries. And he is making leftists  heads explode, but he’s not doing it by attacking celebrities through nasty tweets.



It appears this election our choices are  Biden/Obama or Biden/Obama lite

@LMAO

I hate to break this to you,but Argentina is NOT America,and they have a different history as well as a different culture.

Maybe you could get your hero,DeDo Ron Ron to move to Argentina to run for President there?

[sneakypete]

You have convictions, which is a rarity in modern society.  I applaud you!

@Jack Russell

EVERY tyrant in  history has had convictions. That is why they became "Maximum Leaders".

Seriously?  This describes you to a 'T'.

[roamer_1]

When Trump first ran for office and you refused to vote for him, I thought you were nuts.  Now here I am about to do the same thing realizing that you saw something (or lack of it), in Trump that I failed to see.
The same thing about COVID, as you refused the jab and stated your reasons, and dang it, you were right.  I love how you stand on your convictions.  Hats off to you buddy!

Well thanks for that kind reply.

Let’s play a game called ‘what if it was DeSantis not Trump’.
Imagine if DeSantis added more debt than any President in American history, if he’d grown the deficits more than Obama and called Republicans  Like Massie a RINO for wanting less spending.

Imagine if DeSantis printed more money than any President in history and deported fewer illegal aliens in his 4 yr term than Clinton, Bush or Obama did in either of his 4 yr terms.

Imagine if DeSantis worked with Schumer and Pelosi to approve the largest amnesty bill in American history, and if it was DeSantis who put fiendish, insane, bio-tyrant Fauci in charge, refused to fire him, did everything he said, gave him a medal his last day in office.

Imagine if DeSantis called himself the Father of the Vaccine, was the one who rushed it through safety testing and sent it to market not knowing if it would work on what he calls a ‘calculated risk’.

What if it was DeSantis who used the bully pulpit to attack governors that tried to open their states and sent legal missives from the White House to compel them to close back down once they re-opened, and what if DeSantis said the government should take people's guns first and go through due process later?

What if DeSantis sided with Disney on perverted curriculum in the classroom and said the word woke was stupid?  What if it was DeSantis who went to Larry Fink and BlackRock for direction on how to handle Covid economics?

What if DeSantis said Klaus Schwab is doing a great job and sent his daughter to be a WEF Young Leader?

What if DeSantis got all giggly when answering 'can a man become a woman' and couldn’t give a clear response?

What if DeSantis said he’d expose Saudi involvement in 9/11, never did, but ended up doing business deals with the Saudis that enriched he and his family and was now golfing buddies with them?

What if DeSantis was thrice married, cheated on all his wives, one with a porn star while his wife was pregnant? What if DeSantis partied with Epstein for over 15 years and flew on the Lolita Express? What if DeSantis said he got a thrill out of chasing married women?

What if DeSantis said POW’s weren’t heroes because he ‘likes people that don’t get caught’? What if DeSantis tweeted that the Constitution should be ‘terminated and suspended’ to overturn an election he lost?

What if DeSantis said Pelosi is strong, smart and tough, that he liked her and wanted her to be Speaker and would help whip votes for her. What if he said he likes Gavin Newsom because he's nice to him, so he won't say bad things about him?

What if DeSantis said NY is better than FL and Stacey Abrams would be a better governor than Brian Kemp?

What if DeSantis constantly praised anti-American communists like Xi Jinping and praised Putin & Kim Jong Un?

What if DeSantis hired John Bolton, Karl Rove, Nikki Haley and Chris Wray? What if DeSantis could have pardoned every J6 defendant before leaving office but didn’t? What if DeSantis said he wanted to build the FBI a big new beautiful HQ and revitalize and rebuild Washington DC?

What if DeSantis said he wanted to send MORE money and MORE weapons to Ukraine to force Putin back down?

What if DeSantis said he wanted the government to build 10 new Freedom Cities and nationalize oil to pay for govt funded healthcare?

What if was DeSantis who did ALL this and then nearly the entire mainstream conservative media, and most of the podcasters, radio hosts and thought leaders within the conservative movement  STILL supported him and told their listeners he’s the best candidate and our only hope for saving America, while attacking his opponent, who had a stellar conservative record?

Does everyone see how insane this all is and just how dishonest and corrupt these people really are?? PATHETIC.

Worth repeating.  Every single day.

No, they don't.

It warms my heart to hear someone say 'Conservatives were right'.

@LMAO

true

But as a Trump supporter,  you don't grasp that the concept is the same everywhere. Printing and devaluing your currency to fund deficits always leads to inflation

At least de do Ron Ron understands that. Your boy once said we could print our way out of default(stupid). Angry tweets to D list celebrities doesn't reign in inflation

[Maj. Bill Martin]

Trump can be bribed by flattery much more easily than most politicians can be bribed by money.  It's one of the most dangerous things about him because flattery is perfectly legal, and therefore much easier to do.

And every President who has ever lived cares about what history says about them.  But unlike most of them, Trump is not married to any particular principles, so whatever he believes will give him the most adulation, that's what he'll do.

The best evidence of that was his handling of COVID, and willingness to dish out money, and enabling people to stay home indefinitely.

[Right_in_Virginia]

It warms my heart to hear someone say 'Conservatives were right'.

Why?  Conservatives have been saying this for years. 

[libertybele]

So, the bottom line is:  you're unable to define the political action plan you're betting the farm on.   :

How convenient for you that you edited out my definition.  No worries.  I wouldn't expect any less from you. Keep digging.  That is all.    

[LMAO]

Worth repeating.  Every single day.

And Massie was right on the COVID spending. Trump was wrong

How many more examples of economic and fiscal bleep ups from this guy before even his most ardent of supporters question what they are about to do

[sneakypete]

true

But as a Trump supporter,  you don't grasp that the concept is the same everywhere.

Just never going to let go of that particular straw man, are you?

No... What @LMAO said is exactly right. Whenever, wherever, if you are printing fiat money, inflation will follow. That's just a bare fact.
