Makes you wonder since Trump backed Hilary at one time.... My wife thinks hes going to get to the end and give it all to her
Cruz wins Wyoming
- Thread starter MTHunter
- Start date
this plays in my mind a lot. a lot a lot. is he just playing one big game?? I need to fall into money and buy a huge chunk of land in a short time im afraid, and live off the land. wouldn't that be the life?
Here's my vote for Trump. Rather than trying to justify the guy, think of it as a vote against Cruz and Clinton. Cruz wants to sell off our public lands and he wants to raise age limits and cut benefits for those of us who aren't there yet with social security. I've paid way too much into SS to have some jack wad tell me he's raising the age limit right before I get there.
Sometimes when it comes down to it you have to go with the candidate that best represents your own personal interests!
There is something a little sinister about Cruz to me, something you can't quite your finger on.
With all the things wrong in this country at this point in time why in the hell is he talking about land transfer?
Maybe he's speaking like a true non sportsman Yale grad who's wife works for Goldman Sachs.

I usually steer completely clear here but....we are screwed either way in my opinion on issues overall. As I just shared with my wife, I am only hoping that trump will take this a little more seriously after he becomes the nominee. Successful people typically surround themselves with folks that complement them. In other words, I hope he will put the right people in place that will advise him on the number of issues he is lacking. Bad news Cruz is 30 points behind trump in the polls in FL. Be interesting to see what happens for us and Ohio tomorrow.

I have never herd of libs supporting Cruz. I like Cruz but I dont think he can win the general election. I think Trump can win. Aslong as Hillary or Bernie dont win I dont care who wins. Thats why I support Trump.

Yes....they will definitely come over to my house and take away my guns, can you believe they want health care to be affordable for everyone. Oh, and it's absurd that they want equal rights for all US residents. And the icing on the cake is that they want to immediately address climate change and put more regulations in place to protection this hideous planet we live on. And to think, they wanted your children to go to college and make it almost completely free. Wow, hope we can dodge that bullet and get some guy from big money in there to keep those tax cuts for corporate America rolling and maybe do some fracking in downtown DC so there is more water and cheaper natural gas.
Sometimes the things we consider priorities are not priorities at all. We are a truly selfish country with mixed up priorities with no consideration for the welfare of our neighbors and fellow citizens.
I don't claim to support any candidate at this point, but blind hatred of a political party or candidate based on irrational fears and conservative hype is not healthy. For anyone.
Well said Timber..... I have been Republican my whole life and I say anyone but Cruz or Trump..(or Hillary for that matter) (Yes I know she is a Demo)... Not saying Bernie is the answer but Repubs are not either at this point
Be very careful what you wish for, your unelected Governor is saying she is exploring the use of Executive orders on so called gun safety....
One only has to look to California to see what far left control has done for gun rights and sportsman in general, don't think it will be different anywhere else.

1. Nothing is FREE. Someone has to pay for it.
2. Hillary does support the same type of gun control Australia enacted which was a gun grab/ban. She said so herself.
3. Being overly aggressive on climate change puts our county, economy, and workers at a disadvantage over other countries by over regulating industries and American companies when other countries are not playing by the same rules.
4. The government can not manage anything affordable. Look to Social Security that is now bankrupt. You want them in charge of your health care. A lot of the co-ops that were put in place to provide health insurance are now bankrupt and premiums are up.
You may not support a candidate yet but you do support a party based on your statements above. Our political system is a disaster full of special interest pawns. We loose no matter who wins!

I understand where you are coming from, all factual points, but the biggest hurdle we have is the number of congressional members who have way outlasted their welcome in the Senate. We need an overhaul, and this is the year to do it, I can't remember the exact number, but a our 70% of the Senate is up for for electronic tion this year. Which could be a really great thing. Hitting wall Street hard with taxing, which is long overdue, will provide more money than we can even imagine, those numbers do not lie, I am not usually an optimist, I consider myself a realist. But I think if the Senate turns over enough chairs, some actual progress could be made. Hillary is crazy, and so is Trump, interesting to watch, but not presidential quality of person.

Be careful what you wish for folks. I'm from the great state of Minnesota that elected Jesse "The Body" Ventura as governor. It was a real breath of fresh air (for about two weeks). Then we all discovered that his "act" wasn't an act.

Here is some information on where the candidates stand on federal land transfer/sale. I am troubled by the Rubio position (and of course the Cruz position).

If you like the way democrat controlled cities like NYC control your guns...VOTE DEMOCRAT
If you feel the dems gun control in Chicago has made the city safe...VOTE DEMOCRAT
If you are not a gov't employee and you already pay for your own health insurance but want to pay more to help the "needy or lazy" so it is affordable or free to them...VOTE DEMOCRAT
If your 100% sold on the fact that America is the worlds worst polluter and is the cause of global warming...VOTE DEMOCRAT (but first visit China, Nigeria, etc to see how "green" the rest of the world is. If you're too young to remember, in the 1980's liberal democrats first claimed the climate was cooling, in the 90's it was warming, today it's global change...what will it be next?
If you think socialism is great, first visit Venezuela... then VOTE BERNIE but don't worry 42% of the democrats already consider themselves socialists and more kool aid drinkers are sure to be converted soon.
If you think "We are a truly selfish country with mixed up priorities with no consideration for the welfare of our neighbors and fellow citizens." do some research and find out what country gives more aid than any other to the rest of the world. Then calm down, smoke another joint, and VOTE DEMOCRAT AGAIN

Rubio is 20 behind trump in home state of fl right now and I feel he will be giving a bowing out speech tomorrow after losing it.
