As far as I'm concerned he should have executed a pit maneuver. Fucking SJW cunts think they can harass, assault, badger political opposition. But I'm sure you think she just drove by and flipped him the bird as she was picking her son up from school. She's probably been briefing other SJW parents on his location so they can do the same.

The SJW creature is predictable.
Dude you are certifiably insane. Could your narrative be true? Sure. But we have no actual proof of it, and for you to cling to it as a means of justification for that dude is insane. More than that, talk about over reaction to little things. Sheesh
 
Sounds like Ted Cruz will endorse Trump after the RNC says you must support him or you can't run in the future basically.

To think I actually respected him after his convention speech.

At the point Cruz would be better off just pissing of the RNC. He has done it before. Supporting Trump will kill much of Cruz's base support.

Putting politics aside, it seems like a matter of personal honor. Trump called him a liar, said his wife was ugly, and made a stupid allegation against his dad. Primaries get ugly a lot, and the losers usually endorse the winners, but that seems to take it to a ridiculous level. Cruz is basically saying that his family and his personal honor aren't as important to him as his career.
 
LOL @ Cruz.

What a little bitch. Refuses to endorse Trump because of "integrity"(truth is he thought Trump would get stomped and it would help his cause in four years). Now he's endorsing him because Trump in the White House is becoming a very real possibility, and he doesn't want to be left out in the cold.

"Bu-but, Trump insulted my family! I can't support that man."

What a rat faced cunt. Trump should denounce his support, just for shits and giggles.

Or his pride isn't as important as being able to support his family?


Cruz is a cockroach so I'd question his motives either way. I am surprised he is supporting Trump, but mainly because opposing him seemed like the only way he could differentiate himself from the pack and set up another run in 2020 *shivers*. By supporting him now, he is compromising any aura he had - the same way McCain did when he started courting evangelicals and sucking up to Bush.

"Every critic, every detractor, will have to bow down to President Trump,” she said. “It’s everyone who’s ever doubted Donald, who ever disagreed, who ever challenged him. It is the ultimate revenge to become the most powerful man in the universe.”

Perhaps he didn't want to bend the knee that the Trump campaign demands.

Yeah, he's going to totally not make rent or be able to afford food if he doesn't endorse Trump. His wife's salary from Goldman wouldn't be able to float them. It's a heartbreaking tragedy.

I think after the election, we'll see a mix of Republicans who kept their mouths shut claim to have been against Trump all the way and that they knew it was a mistake and Republicans who blame them for costing the party the election.

As I've said before, the Trump candidacy is one of those rare historical moments when politicians and even pundits are hearing the call to really be heroes, and I hope people remember who pretended to be sleeping when the phone rang.

If he feels he should be POTUS for America's sake then showing a high emotional iq in order to stay in the mix isn't dishonorable.

And that last part is incredibly dramatic; overacted even.

The media has steadily failed the country since 2000.

Congress can do their job by simply doing their job and not giving their power away- something they've been dining since 2001.
 
This first debate might be the absolute key to the election.

If Trump doesn't do something to flip Colorado, Wisconsin, or Virginia, the election's over.

The debate is 90 minutes long with no bathroom breaks, so if Hillary's team doesn't pump her with enough drugs to last over 90 minutes and she has a health issue, the election's over.

First debate is just a warm up. Lots of Presidents have fucked up the first debate.
 
Local paper (Cincinnati Enquirer) endorsed Clinton. First time endorsing a Democrat in nearly 100 years. Ohio is a swing state, but Cincinnati is pretty hard conservative across all demos (I blame Kentucky and Indiana).

True. Whether that is the same rule for a race with non incumbents is still to be seen. Did Bush have a bad first debate with Gore?

You're changing your justification for dishonorable behavior. First it was about feeding his family (LOL), now it's about an equally comical idea that he's debasing himself for the good of America. The problem with this line--aside from the fact that it's obviously false--is that politicians aren't that special. Cruz is very smart (apparently) and well-educated, but there are other people who fit that bill and agree with him on every issue. So he could back one of them next time if he truly loves his country so much.

And, no, you just aren't appreciating the threat the country is facing. The media is failing the country by normalizing Trump and abnormalizing his normal opponent. Most Republican players are more aware of the danger than you are but lack the moral strength and courage to speak out.
