Quote:I'm certainly no fan of Ted Cruz, but I'm not sure what you mean by he is "the epitome of what is wrong with US politics." He's just playing the game like everyone else. It's his policies that suck, not his politics.

 

I wouldn't be so sure about The Donald running as an independent. He'd have to spend his own money - no money or resources from the Party. Like most rich people I'm sure he'd much rather spend someone else's cash - like yours or mine.

If Donald could only read - and wasn't so lazy. Being a rich man I guess he thought he could just show up, say "Make America great again!" and win the Party's nomination. Actually figure out what the rules are? That's for losers!

 

Not very corrupt, just very stupid.

 

I'll admit Donald Trump wasn't as savvy as Ted Cruz in the ways of the corruption in the Republican Party, but shouldn't it always be about what the voter majority wants and not what some elite powerful rich democrats or Republicans tell us?

It's not even so much a statement pro-trump as I was trying to make that I hate the two-party system that exists.  I wish politicians couldn't run for any particular party but rather stood on their own merit & promises kept to their citizens that elected them.
