It's a beautiful thing. We never have to worry about Lee Harvey Cruz potentially getting our nomination ever again.

He has made himself an enemy of WE THE PEOPLE and our successful revolution and overthrow of the GOP is not some short-lived deviation. There is no turning back. This is here to stay no matter what happens in November. And Ted Cruz has no place in our national future, and it's of his own doing.

Ah, yeah, that's what I suspected. But I meant even aside from any official statement, was there anything that was clearly, flagrantly abuse as of late? His tweets always seemed pretty benign in comparison to how he was characterized.

Retweeting screencaps of fake tweets his followers had created as if they were real was probably sufficient abuse of Twitter's terms and conditions for someone who has already had several warnings. I think he's keeps his own tweets "pretty benign" (by twitter standards) and lets his followers do the dirty work.... which is probably another thing that Twitter isn't too fond of. But no, I don't think you're find any specific tweet that got him banned. He tends to switch to the "I'm just a naughty boy having fun and making the world interesting" defence as soon as his followers start with the racist abuse/death threats etc.

It's Official: Hillary Clinton is Running Against Vladimir Putin

The Republican nominee for president, Donald J. Trump, has chosen this week to unmask himself as a de facto agent of Russian President Vladimir Putin, a KGB-trained dictator who seeks to rebuild the Soviet empire by undermining the free nations of Europe, marginalizing NATO, and ending America�s reign as the world�s sole superpower.

I am not suggesting that Donald Trump is employed by Putin�though his campaign manager, Paul Manafort, was for many years on the payroll of the Putin-backed former president of Ukraine, Viktor Yanukovych. I am arguing that Trump�s understanding of America�s role in the world aligns with Russia�s geostrategic interests; that his critique of American democracy is in accord with the Kremlin�s critique of American democracy; and that he shares numerous ideological and dispositional proclivities with Putin�for one thing, an obsession with the sort of �strength� often associated with dictators. Trump is making it clear that, as president, he would allow Russia to advance its hegemonic interests across Europe and the Middle East. His election would immediately trigger a wave of global instability�much worse than anything we are seeing today�because America�s allies understand that Trump would likely dismantle the post-World War II U.S.-created international order. Many of these countries, feeling abandoned, would likely pursue nuclear weapons programs on their own, leading to a nightmare of proliferation.

Trump�s sympathy for Putin has not been a secret. Trump said he would �get along very well� with Putin, and he has pleased Putin by expressing a comprehensive lack of interest in the future of Ukraine, the domination of which is a core Putinist principle. The Trump movement also agrees with Putin that U.S. democracy is fatally flawed. A Trump adviser, Carter Page, recently denounced�to a Moscow audience�America�s �often-hypocritical focus on democratization, inequality, corruption and regime change.� Earlier this week, Trump�s operatives watered down the Republican Party�s national-security platform position on Ukraine, removing a promise to help the Ukrainians receive lethal aid in their battle to remain free of Russian control.

Now, in an interview with Maggie Haberman and David Sanger of The New York Times, Trump has gone much further, suggesting that he and Putin share a disdain for NATO. Fulfilling what might be Putin�s dearest wish, Trump, in this interview, openly questioned whether the U.S., under his leadership, would keep its commitments to the alliance. According to Haberman and Sanger, Trump �even called into question, whether, as president, he would automatically extend the security guarantees that give the 28 members of NATO the assurance that the full force of the United States military has their back.� Trump told the Times that, should Russia attack a NATO ally, he would first assess whether those nations �have fulfilled their obligations to us.� If they have, he said, he would then come to their defense.

These sorts of equivocating, mercenary statements�unprecedented in the history of Republican foreign policymaking�represent an invitation to Putin to intervene more destructively in non-NATO countries such as Ukraine and Moldova, and also represent an invitation to intervene directly in NATO countries�the Baltic states, first and foremost. This is why the Estonian president tweeted in a cold panic immediately after Trump�s interview appeared online: �Estonia is 1 of 5 NATO allies in Europe to meet its 2% def[ense] expenditures commitment.� The president, Toomas Hendrik Ilves, also noted that Estonia fought �with no caveats� with NATO in Afghanistan.

Unlike Trump, leaders of such countries as Estonia believe that the United States still represents the best hope for freedom. In his interview with Haberman and Sanger, Trump argued, in essence, that there is nothing exceptional about the U.S., and that therefore its leaders have no right to criticize the behavior of other countries: �When the world looks at how bad the United States is, and then we go and talk about civil liberties, I don�t think we�re a very good messenger.�

As someone who has covered President Obama�s foreign policy fairly extensively, I feel confident in stating that he has never expressed such a negative view of the U.S. We are truly in uncharted waters.

Republican Party foreign policy, to date, has been fairly clear on a number of subjects: The United States, Republican foreign-policy thinkers have argued, should help to expand the number of free countries in the world; they believe that the U.S. should come to the defense of free peoples whether or not those peoples can, or will, reimburse the United States for expenditures in pursuit of freedom; that Europe represents the stable platform from which the United States projects its power, and ideas, into the world; that Russian imperial dreams should be countered in a robust fashion by the U.S. and its allies; and that the withdrawal of the U.S. from three key regions of the world�East Asia, Europe, and the Middle East�would create vacuums soon filled by non-democratic regimes that would operate counter to U.S. national-security interests.

Donald Trump, should he be elected president, would bring an end to the postwar international order, and liberate dictators, first and foremost his ally Vladimir Putin, to advance their own interests. The moral arc of the universe is long, and, if Trump is elected, it will bend in the direction of despotism and darkness.

TyrantWD: Nov 6, 2010; Ignore my doomerism, I don't think better things are possible

Pundits keep saying Cruz committed career suicide, when its quite the opposite. For politicians other than Trump, the conservative purity test matters. If Cruz was the lone hold-out, he would have come across as a sore loser, but at the very same time, you have Kasich who represents the "moderate" wing of the party who is basically echoing those sentiments. There is a range of establishment Republicans who Cruz will be able to point to as people who stood up for conservative/Republican principals while everyone else sold out to reality TV conman. Sure, in the height of Trumpmania he looks bad to a lot of party loyalists, but in a year or two years Rush is going to be crying over how beautiful it was to watch a man walk into a vipers nest and stand up for conservative beliefs.
