I agree.....I think Cruz is a better choice for ideological reasons....but either one is better than the corrupt lying hag.

I like it, loco! -g- I think that Cruz started out great, and he had some great ideas, especially about the flat tax, the FED, and his strong support of the U.S. Constitution. If Trump hadn't ran, I definitely would have supported Cruz. Trump certainly isn't the ideal solution from my perspective -- who is? -- but, I think that he is the best solution on the table at this point. A couple of months back, I was really hoping that Trump and Cruz would team up. Cruz could have thrown his support to Trump and taken the VP slot. After 8 years of a Trump presidency, he would still be a relatively young man and would be the heir apparent for 8 more years. I think that far too much open warfare and personal attacks happened during the past few months from both sides to ever allow that to happen now. One good thing about this election cycle... It has opened the eyes of millions to see and understand that our votes absolutely don't count (or at least count very little). Commie Bernie's supporters have seen him totally blow out Rodham-Clinton in many states, only to be blown out himself in the same states' delegate/super-delegate slates. Likewise, conservative voters have seen eGOP insiders come out and openly say that they don't care what voters say or how they voted, they are ensuring that their state's delegates are allocated to block Trump. It's been a real eye-opener about how rigged the system really is. And I don't just say that as a trump supporter. It is clearly rigged on the Democratic side too. On the Republican side, if Trump hadn't ran, and Cruz emerged as the likely nominee, I have no doubt that the eGOP would be doing everything possible to block Cruz. They're just using Kasich and Cruz to block Trump.
