Kasich is just another Rino (Republican in name only). These guys are Washington insiders that will cut deals with Democrats and sell their own party down the road. They would be willing to accept crumbs as opposed to half a loaf to cut a deal. Been there, done that. Trump and Cruz supporters are tired of that crap. Trump is not that conservative and I think he'll cut deals also but *give* far less than what he expects to get out of a deal. He plays *hardball*. That's all he's been doing the whole campaign. He goes for the Jugular and that is what freaks people out about him. We always hear politicians say "I'll fight for you". That is exactly what Trump is doing! He's like a bull in a china shop. He's not *playing* by the rules, he's fighting and means to win. As for Rebecca Traister's assertion, that's just BS. Trump is attracting more minorities than Republicans have ever been able to imagine. He got 40% of the Hispanic vote in Nevada and it's looking like he could get as much as 25% of the black vote. It would be absolutely devastating to the Democratic party if he got anything like that on a national scale. Democrats have had minority votes for decades and it hasn't gotten them anywhere. They want jobs and they're( at least that 40% and 25%) seeing that Trump is offering a better solution than welfare and food stamps. In fact, the whole country wants jobs. The economy hasn't grown at a rate much above 3% in ten years now. That is unsustainable. Every year below 4% is digging the hole a little deeper. Raising minimum wage to $15 an hour isn't going to create new jobs and Obama care is killing them. Companies are cutting back on hours and employees to avoid the mandate to provide Obama care. Everybody wants jobs! I like Cruz because he really is a true conservative and so far, has done everything he said he would when he ran for the Senate. He hasn't backed down to his party's elite leaders and refuses to cow-tow to them and that's why they *hate* him. He won't get in the back of the line and shut up. He actually called McConnell, his majority leader, a liar on the Senate floor once and that takes balls. I can't say I agree with every position he takes but I know where he is. He's a fantastic debater. Has argued numerous cases before the Supreme Court and is a strict constitutionalist. Actually, if Trump wins the election , he should nominate Cruz to the Supreme Court.I'm sure Christie is bucking for Attorney General. Fair enough. You have good reasons for supporting Cruz although he is not my cuppa as far as his religion or his conservatism. Nevertheless, if he is a man true to his word and not a hypocrite in terms of saying one thing and doing another or constantly switching positions based on political expediency then all the power to him (well, not all the power. I wouldn't want him to be President). Still, there is value in those who try and stay true to who they are and Trump is such an empty shell of a man he is willing to do or say anything to feed his need for adulation and power. As for Cruz being an Evangelical, I'd rather listen to him say "let's bow our heads" than say how sweet the sound of the Muslim call to prayer is and justify Islamic extremism because of the crusades.

One thing she stated was that his supporters are responding to Trump as an authority figure. In that there is no one or no thing with any authority any more that people can hang onto—everything is relative and changing quickly. In that he is someone that counters the experience that politicians of today are impotent. Except that it's all a big con. To steal from Xeno and another thread on FFL-2, this cracked me up (regardless of its accuracy) and seemed quite apropos. Xeno states: "The argument from authority is always weak, it only works within the emotional confines of a particular group that holds certain views to be real." Yep, this applies to Drumpf, his "message" (none), and his supporters. I'm pretty sure that if asked, Drumpf would claim that he in possession of "divine authority." Or, certainly, as Bush claimed, that "he is on a mission from God" and God told him so specifically. He has already implied as such in his statement that "he will be the best jobs President that God ever created."

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: It's Not Over Yet
This is the problem with Rubio, he cut his own throat as a member of the *gang of eight* and is backed by the Republican *elite* which is exactly what Trump supporters can't stand.Kasich is just another Rino (Republican in name only). These guys are Washington insiders that will cut deals with Democrats and sell their own party down the road. They would be willing to accept crumbs as opposed to half a loaf to cut a deal. Been there, done that. Trump and Cruz supporters are tired of that crap. Trump is not that conservative and I think he'll cut deals also but *give* far less than what he expects to get out of a deal. He plays *hardball*. That's all he's been doing the whole campaign. He goes for the Jugular and that is what freaks people out about him. We always hear politicians say "I'll fight for you". That is exactly what Trump is doing! He's like a bull in a china shop. He's not *playing* by the rules, he's fighting and means to win. As for Rebecca Traister's assertion, that's just BS. Trump is attracting more minorities than Republicans have ever been able to imagine. He got 40% of the Hispanic vote in Nevada and it's looking like he could get as much as 25% of the black vote. It would be absolutely devastating to the Democratic party if he got anything like that on a national scale. Democrats have had minority votes for decades and it hasn't gotten them anywhere. They want jobs and they're( at least that 40% and 25%) seeing that Trump is offering a better solution than welfare and food stamps. In fact, the whole country wants jobs. The economy hasn't grown at a rate much above 3% in ten years now. That is unsustainable. Every year below 4% is digging the hole a little deeper. Raising minimum wage to $15 an hour isn't going to create new jobs and Obama care is killing them. Companies are cutting back on hours and employees to avoid the mandate to provide Obama care. Everybody wants jobs! I like Cruz because he really is a true conservative and so far, has done everything he said he would when he ran for the Senate. He hasn't backed down to his party's elite leaders and refuses to cow-tow to them and that's why they *hate* him. He won't get in the back of the line and shut up. He actually called McConnell, his majority leader, a liar on the Senate floor once and that takes balls. I can't say I agree with every position he takes but I know where he is. He's a fantastic debater. Has argued numerous cases before the Supreme Court and is a strict constitutionalist. Actually, if Trump wins the election , he should nominate Cruz to the Supreme Court.I'm sure Christie is bucking for Attorney General. As for Cruz being an Evangelical, I'd rather listen to him say "let's bow our heads" than say how sweet the sound of the Muslim call to prayer is and justify Islamic extremism because of the crusades.
