Thread: Ben Carson to endorse Trump

  1. #11
    I'm not convinced that registered Republicans are by and large truly conservative. They may be fiscally conservative and want smaller government but more moderate on social issues.

    Yeah, that is disappointing. Like you I will wait to hear his reasons but by and large, I am done with politics. While Carson was my number 1 choice, I would take Cruz or Rubio over Trump.

    Ben Carson endorses Trump ahead of Florida GOP primary
    http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016...l?intcmp=hpbt1

    Saying he has buried the hatchet with his former rival, retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson endorsed Republican front-runner Donald Trump at a news conference in Florida Friday morning.

    “There’s a lot more alignment philosophically and spiritually…that surprised me more than anything,” Carson said about his relationship with Trump. He added that there are two Trumps “one you see on the stage and the one who is very cerebral, sits there and considers things very carefully.”

    “You can have a very good conversation with him, and that’s the Donald Trump that you’re going to see more and more of right now,” he said.

    Carson shrugged off remarks he and Trump made toward one other earlier in the primary season.

    "That was political stuff. And, you know, that happens in American politics, the politics of personal destruction. All that is not something that I particularly believe in or anything that I get involved in. But I do recognize that it is a part of the process. We move on, because it’s not about me, it’s not about Mr. Trump. It’s about America,” Carson said.

    Carson also credited Trump for being “a very intelligent man who cares deeply about America."

    Sources close to Carson say he was torn between Trump and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, but picked Trump after Cruz’s camp allegedly circulated a rumor ahead of the Iowa caucuses by the Cruz campaign that Carson had dropped out of the race.

    However, Carson said Friday he has “completely forgiven” Cruz.

    “That’s the duty one has as a Christian,” Carson said.
    This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity (futility) of their mind, having the understanding darkened...
    (Ephesians 4:17-18)

    Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly...
    (Psalm 1)

    It's a big picture BAP that transcends Trump or any individual. The two-party crime syndicate needs to be slowed down.

    They don't even hide their intentions now.

    I think Dr. Carson has forgiven Cruz, but he's still stinging from the hurt that the little "dirty trick" did to his standing in Iowa ...Which is why he threw his support to Trump's camp.

    Not a Cruz fan, but I think he's a heck of a lot better than Trump - I'm very disappointed too.

    It didn't hurt his standing here in Iowa. He had no political traction anyway. Why he would endorse a filthy mouthed and womanizing man like Trump is far beyond my understanding. I do think that Trump has promised him a cabinet position in the Dept of Education.
