“He seems to be the only guy who’s got some momentum, and is probably the best situated if there is anybody out there to beat Trump,” said Austin Barbour, a prominent Mississippi-based GOP operative. “That’s why there are many people like me—Ted Cruz wouldn’t have been our first choice, but as we go through the process, we’re reevaluating our vote, and he seems to be the guy at the top of the list.”

This is what has become of the long deceased Grand Old Party. They would settle for the most destructive TEA Party member of the GOP who denounces every Republican principle and idea in the history of the party. This is the definition of hypocrisy: “pretending to be what you are not, or ​pretending to ​believe something that you do not.”

Although I personally despise Donald Trump, his specifics are far closer to the principles of the a once great party than those of Ted Cruz. His entire philosophy is directed at the destruction or our Democratic Republic. He seeks a dictatorship where compromise and intelligent solutions decide the future of our nation.

The only reason that the GOP establishment is considering the support of Cruz is because the failed miserably when they made the foolish decision to focus their efforts on the success of Marco Rubio, who couldn’t be elected president of a PTA. The Republican Party will fail forever if they choose not to support their front runner. The voting public is attempting to make a statement; ‘you have failed miserably,’ and it’s their party, not yours.

What Republican leadership is saying to us is unacceptable. They expect the American people to vote for a president they don’t actually want themselves. They seek political domination in Washington and have no interest in serving all of the American people; they want to protect special interests.

Intelligent Americans should reject all of the GOP offerings. None of them will work for America; none of them have ideas for the betterment of the working class.

The party’s over, and the Republican Party is fading into the swamp.
