a viable party

Cruz is just one faction of the ReTHUGs - Rmoney meant what he said - they hate the 47%indeed they hate the 99% and all their contradictions have come to a head - racism, misogyny, the social good, separation of church and state, pro war but anti-taxes.

This was one great week. Fuck all ReTHUGs - the Cruz to oblivion continues.

They don't have squat to appeal to the masses.

All they have is HATE and FEAR.

They're filthy peddlers in hatred and fear, malaise.
