I’m very glad that Boehner has stated what we Texas Democrats have long known. Cruz really is “Lucifer in the Flesh!” And his very existence occupying the main competitive position to Donald Trump nationally is a major factor that will result in Trump getting the nomination on the first ballot. Cruz supporters like the nasty Steve in the upper right of the screen demonstrate why Trump is preferable.
Neither Trump nor Cruz should even be allowed in to Washington, D.C. let alone near the actual Presidency.
All of us salivating over the coming show of self destruction, called the GOP Convention, should stop and try to remember a few things in our past. One: American voters will choose a celebrity they think they know over a competent politician any day - Reagan did get elected. Two: Utter stupidity and inability to talk in intelligible sentences doesn’t turn off American voters - little George Bush did get elected. It is always much more reassuring, if a bit scary, when the Republicans run someone who might actually be able to handle the office of POTUS.
They don’t. I am so ashamed when I see press conferences by foreign reporters. They actually ask good questions and are real journalists, except perhaps those from the Daily Mail UK
More proof of the USA descent into “Banana Republic” status politically.
It is hard to tell the difference between the US House of Representatives and the parliment in any Banana Republic.
Their candidates are MORE PALATABLE than the Republican offerings.
What’s funny is I actually debated that very point. I initially was thinking 40% +/- (aka 40 odd) but noticed that yes, that slice of the electorate is “odd” as well (to put it in polite terms).
