Showing Original Post only (View all)Ted Cruz is the most dangerous demagogue of my lifetime [View all]
Donald Trump is a buffoon, and Rove and the rest of the GOP will take him down. But they are throwing their support to the most dangerous demagogue we have seen in the past 60 years, at least. Just finished watching Cruz speaking in Wisconsin, and he was throwing out every insincere "concern" imaginable. I go back a long way. This man is likely to be the GOP nominee, and we have never seen the (unlikeable) likes of him.
I'm 65, and sounding a warning bell here to any DUers who take this man for granted.

And Reagan was considered right wing when he ran. Now he's considered liberal. Strange.
