The Donald Trump

Now that the Indiana primary is over and my man Ted Cruz did not win it is time to move on. I am ready to give Mr. Trump a chance. He has Dr. Ben Carson as an advisor which is a big plus. Also he said he would be careful with supreme court nominees which to me is a huge deal. The court misses Scalia greatly. I am willing to give him a chance. What I am dissapointed in seeing is that several Republicans are not giving him a chance. Mitt Romney, John McCain, and House Speaker Paul Ryan are not supporting Trump. They need to give Donald Trump a chance. Mitt Romney had his chance and could not win. Why can't Romney support Trump? The establishment is looking silly by not supporting Donald Trump.

Ted Cruz loses in Indiana primary

Planting is well underway and my boss is about 80% planted with his popcorn.  We had a 1 inch rain during the weekend so we have been out of the fields.  That gave me some time to think about and vote in the Indiana primary.  Usually the Indiana primary does not mean anything.  However, this year it was a big deal.  I knew that Indiana was a big deal for Senator Ted Cruz.  Donald Trump is rolling.  There are things I like about him however there are things I do not.  The research I have done and also listening to afa.net (american family association) I believe Senator Ted Cruz is a Christian and a man to stand up to the establishment.  John Boehner, the ex-house republican leader, ripped Ted Cruz this past week.  I thought that was a good sign.  Senator Ted Cruz is a deep thinker and a smart guy also.  I went to the polls yesterday and cast my vote for Senator Cruz.  By 7pm eating supper with the family we found out that Trump already won.  I am disappointed but it will be interesting to see who Donald Trump turns out to be once in office.  He has no record so it is a guess.  The statements he makes, ripping Senator Cruz's wife's looks, saying Cruz's dad was in a photo with JFK's assinator makes me wonder about his temperment.  I am thankful that Senator Cruz will return to the Senate to hold the Republicans responsible.  I will look back on yesterday with dissappointment however God holds the future in His hands.  With that truth we can move forward.  I know I need to pray for our nation more.  We will see how things turn out.  I am hoping Clinton will be defeated.
