Interesting.

All sizzle and no steak. Well, at least no Trump Steaks. Just more deceit and misleading from the carnival barker. http://dailycaller.com/2016/03/08/those ... aks-video/

I wonder what else he is trying to deceive us about, 2nd Amendment. Healthcare reform, torture and enhanced interrogation, government land ownership, ammesty, taxes etc?

Here is another poll that says support for Trump will lead to president Hillary or Bernie.

Worse than Sharptons too.

I like Carson more than all of them. Unfortunately and sadly, I think he is just too nice of a guy to be president.

That's just not right. Funny, but not right.

"A Smart Politics analysis finds that Ted Cruz’s 43.8 percent showing in Texas marks the lowest support ever recorded by a Republican presidential candidate in a home state victory out of the more than five-dozen campaigns to win their home state since 1912."

who carried their home state

That's a pretty telling pre-qualifier there. And this is also this most contested primary in probably the last 100 years. I know its the most contested in my lifetime.

Exactly. Were there 5 candidates with at least three of them viable in all of those prior races?

The argument about his position flip flopping on marijuana enforcement is invalid. There are two different questions proposed. One is, does he favor the States making making the laws regarding marijuana and the other question is related to him making that a "top three" issue. It only makes sense the answer would be different. Any candidate that would make marijuana a top three issue should be crucified considering what the country is facing.

I too remember Megan Kelly correcting the record at the after debate interview. That is just another example of the retraction and correction not getting the same play as the original incorrect report.

I suspect the other links are just as bogus but I am on the road at the moment and do not have to time view them.

Baldeagle, That is a very good analysis of Cruz's position at https://www.txantimedia.com/?p=2136. It takes emotion and pride out of the equation and gives a good analysis of how things actually went down. Thanks for sharing.

It is so easy for people to twist what others say. That's why I like looking at exactly what comes from the horses mouth. Trump is the best debater against Trump.

Trump comes out and actually compliments Cruz, and Cruz right away takes a jab at Trump.

Echoes the sentiment here.

My level of respect for Cruz and his supporters just went down a notch.

Come on. Don't go there. Trump said tonight be would not negotiate on amnesty after he admitted he would negotiate on amnesty after it came out he was caught on tape he said he would. Just in a couple days he has flip flopped multiple times. How are you going to feel when he flip flops on an issue important to you?

You keep getting awfully close to making personal attacks and insults and that is getting old. I have made sure to keep my comments directed at the issues and candidates.

By the way, Cruz came out and congratulated Donald. Did he not?

Trump just lied again about his plan for amnesty. He just said he would not negotiate and allow some to stay.

He can't keep up with his stories.

Glad you joined the party. Was starting to feel like the Lone Ranger.

Exactly why I am sticking so hard on this issue. I believe there is so much ammunition out there on Trump, that he himself has provided, the dems are going to hammer him.

So changing one's position from day to day is ok if it is to garner support and only once called on it?

That is still contrary to what he has been saying and what got him the support he has.

Trump's position changes as we debate. Now he admits to changing his position after using the deportation and wall as the cornerstones to garner support.

http://legalinsurrection.com/2016/03/tr ... egotiable/

“Would it be negotiable about the 11 million?” Hannity pressed. “Maybe let some people stay if they register in a period of time?”

“I would say this,” Trump added, “we will work out some system that’s fair, but we either have a country or we don’t. We need a border. We need a wall.”

This should be causing Trump supporters cognitive dissonance. After all, he shot to prominence early in the race by taking the most aggressive possible stance on immigration. Now he is backpedaling to the exact same position as his reviled Gang of Eight competitor, Marco Rubio.

Just think how he will change his positions once he is the nominee. Kind of like Obama telling Medvedev just wait until after the election.

This is what you get when dealing with people that aren't principled. He would not have admitted this if it hadn't been for the recording.

As far as TPP and TPA, he explained his reasoning in the video. I'll let his words and actions represent him just like I have Trump with his words and actions.

Like you said, no one is 100% perfect. I don't think there is anyone I or any is going to agree with 100% of the time. He may dead wrong on this.

You're right on, and I know with the phones (I'm on mine now), stuff gets mixed up.

Well, the phone and 50 year old eyes.

It's been fun debating over this. While we disagree on who is the right one to right the ship, we both love and care about our country. Neither of us want to see Hillary at the helm.
