(83 posts)Pundits are now saying that Trump is the weak Repub - that he's the only one that Clinton can beat. I don't buy it - the GOP establishment is pushing for Cruz because they know they can control him. Trump is a disaster for all of us! I still think Trump will run third party if he doesn't get the nomination (his ego will not let him do otherwise) - this would split the GOP ticket and be a shoe-in for the Democrat. If you are torn between Sanders and Clinton you should opt for the Republican ballot (if you can in your state) and vote Cruz to keep Trump from becoming the GOP nominee. Sanders and Clinton are really not that far apart in their viewpoints and could choose the other as a running mate or other high office. Don't be fooled by all the media hype. Democrats can beat Cruz - he is a smarmy bug disliked by his fellow GOP senators who will crawl under a rock once the light of truth is shone upon him. Democrats can beat Cruz, so vote for him now before the media crowns Trump with the presidency.
