We need to stop being nice, we need to call them out OFTEN! We need to go to the online pages where they spew their garbage and call them out. I was on a yahoo story the other day and people were brutal to the MAGATS on there. There are more of us than there are of them. The problem is, they are loud, obnoxious and bullies and we have let them get away with thinking they are the majority, THEY ARE NOT!

Any chance we have to call them out, we should do it, and do it in a fearless fashion.

Do they really believe Trump? If so then they should vote Cruz out. If not then they should realize Trump is just a lying scumbag. Either way, Cruz looks bad because he didn't stand up to Trump.

There are a few people who can still be swayed.
