I guess opinions vary.
Cruz voters were voting Trump regardless.
excellent analysis!Are you aware it was the NY delegation that started whipping up the boos choreographed perfectly to when Trump made his entrance into the hall? Trump didn't have to let him speak. He knew he wasn't going to be endorsed.
The entire convention hall was unified for trump and against cruz. What cruz did, did not play well to cruz's base, and they are more likely to fall into Trumps fold now.
The media is always going to focus on whatever juicy thing happened in the short term. In the long term though the meh trump supporters and the cruz contingent are more likely to be in trump's corner now.
So I'm listening to my left wing radio on the way home and they claimed Cruz endorsed Trump. Doesn't seem to have happened.
well this one is certainly not scripted! It's cool to see some bare knuckles politics.
Cruz gives me the creeps - and much of his speech I don't agree with; him being Tea Party.
But I did like his call to act our conscience ..I'm a sucker for patriotism. even when it's worn on one's sleeve
Eric Trump was pretty good. I'm starting to really like the kids.
The line about Oprah asking years if Trump would ever run for POTUS.. "Only if I have to!"
jeese. you're ALL IN for the Trumps huh?the problem with the kids is that now its hard to decide who to support in 2024 don jr or ivanka. They are both amazing and would be great to continue the legacy. I would have thought ivanka 100% but don jr impresses me everytime he speaks.
jeese. you're ALL IN for the Trumps huh?
Look I think he might be the best thing (since Bernie didn't make it) to overthrow "the establishment" -
and hopefully he wouldn't be brain dead like Obama and Clinton; too wedded to international politics as usual to look out for US interests above all.
In other words they are consummate "globalists"
But Trump still has to overcome gross media bias, and the tendency for Americans to say they want change
and then vote straight ticket status quo.
In other words it's a long uphill slog. Populism is very hard to make happen in the USA.
He got this far, and if he can KEEP HIS MOUTH shut-while still energizing Americans who really are committed
then he's got a good chance -since Hilary is also loathed at about 60%.
1 step at a time, Rome wasn't built in a day/election cycle
LOL Grind is a mental case who loves anyone he views as "upsetting" liberals. His political "observations" are not to be taken seriously.
I remember how he cried when Obama won. I expect a repeat in a few months.

The best metaphor I've seen---I wish I could claim it lol.
"Ted Cruz took to the podium, doused himself with gasoline and lit the match."
That's the easy wisdom now, and could end up being true.
Cruz placed his bets. His money is on Trump not only losing in nov, but going down so big and bad electorally that the party must have a come to jesus moment.
How's Cruz gonna look then?
That's when we'll know. We don't know today. Anybody who claims they do is a liar or a fool. Plenty of those here.
Now we have the left DEPENDING upon the RIGHT...the far right....to support their FAR LEFT agenda. Geeze, I need a program.Cruz....LOST ONCE. What makes you assume he is not an habitual loser.....does recent history teach you at all? What do they call insanity? Witnessing an event yet declaring a different outcome will come NEXT TIME....with nothing having changed. That's insanity.
It's already exceeded my expectations - and Trump hasn't even spoken yet. I have a feeling that's going to be a really memorable capper.
Cruz was just loving it tonight. What a spectacle. The Democrats have to falling over themselves laughing.
