A fake debate?

Think of it as a Pro Bowl, an exhibition game.

I assume Cruz is doing this to diminish the possibility o GOP challengers in his next senate run. He also is likely trying to place himself in position for 2020 in case Trump fails. I used to be somewhat pro-Cruz but I now realize he has no national appeal and not really capable of growing one.

It’s not a presidential debate.

It’s not a presidential debate, it’s a townhall about repealing Obamacare.

Look on the bright side, that's what I always say.

I thought the election was over? What is this about between the two almost nominees? Is this an MSM attempt to make it seem that those selected by either party are not legitimate?

Actually, I bet it is more about trying imply that Trump is not legitimate.

It will be interesting to see what Cruz is reported as saying. I would still like to see Cruz in the Supreme Court.

HL27, my money is right where yours is. Hope Cruz mops the floor with the perverted socialist.

Isn’t that the same night as the Steelers-Packers game?

Now read beyond the headline.

I did, but still think it will be little more than the political posturing we saw before.

Hope Cruz doesn’t have that lip booger thing going on like he did in one of the other debates...

Our President has rightfully declared CNN fake news. Cruz is lending credibility to a dead horse. On the other hand, this just demonstrates Cruz's attitude: "It's all about me."

As much as some would like to believe the best about Cruz, and even see him on SCOTUS, he is a weasel and can not be trusted.
