Cruz doesn’t propose remedies

Oh, but he has. However, the NYT has no interest in a return to Constitutional order for the Federal government, because that will mean that hundreds of government departments will be cut, and hundreds of thousands of government drones will be looking for work. And, there'll be plenty of private sector jobs, once things get cooking again, because taxes and regulations, the hag that is riding the back of business, would be thrown off in a Cruz administration.

No, I don't expect the NYT likes any of that.

Goody! - Just like empty-headed Obama.

Cruz knows himself what the strategy needs to be; he is a strategist of the highest order.

That is why you don’t understand a word he says, and never will.

LOL.

You are just another member of the Cruz Cult. Can’t stand any criticism of your false god.

Well aren’t you a special little queer?

Can’t take a factual discussion so you start with the outright lying and fabrications.

Cruz is a loser in the pocket of the billionaires and you can’t stand someone pointing out the truth. Trump cannot be bought. Cruz and his Goldman Sachs pals will take your money and then laugh in your face all the way to the bank.

Cash doesn’t mean anything if you’re a crappy candidate. Just look at Jebe Arbusto. He’s going nowhere despite spending millions in ads.

Cruz is getting his ass handed to him because he acts like a junior league debate nerd that everyone beats up in school.

Once again, you have no answer to the facts.

Keep trolling you pathetic queen.

I personally have experienced what Ted Cruz wants for America (tens of thousands of H1B hordes) and I won’t stand for his ilk lying to grassroots Americans as they take our money and then betray us to goddless fatcats.

Do you know the story behind the H1B visa stuff?

It was in the middle of a battle which Ted Cruz and a few senators fought against the 'Gang of 8' amnesty bill. He offered an amendment to counteract pro-illegal immigration provisions of the amnesty bill.

I, and many people, are grateful that Ted Cruz led this fight. Otherwise, they would have approved amnesty already.

Remember this fight in 2013?

The facts are what you argue against.

You’re a pathetic union scummer.

Go back to your IBEW thugs.

Here are the facts once again. You will likely ignore them as you do whenever someone else points them out:

1) Ted Cruz wants MORE immigration when we already have tens of millions of foreign moochers in this country who need to go home.

2) Ted Cruz has refused to answer whether he would send illegals home

3) Ted Cruz is married to a top-level executive at Goldman Sachs and has received millions upon millions of dollars from the people who caused the financial crisis.

4) Donald Trump is independent of these godless liars and can’t be bought by them.

5) Ted Cruz voted for TPA and voted for Corker’s pro-Iran abomination.

6) Not one poll has ever been conducted which shows Cruz beating Clinton. Even Marco Rubio and Jeb Bush do better in the general election than Cruz.

7) Ted Cruz’s voice and demeanor sound like an arrogant, high-pitched nerd boy who everyone hated in high school. Normal people find him repellent.

8) Ted Cruz is in bed with fraudulent Beltway “conservative” groups like the Club for Growth. I have read tons of stories on how these disgusting liars spend their contributors’ money on mansions, beer fountains, and private jets.

9) Ted Cruz is a piss-poor strategist who has never once articulated and executed a strategy that came to positive results. He’s not a leader, he’s a whiner.

Any of the other GOP candidates would do better against Hillary than him except for Arbusto and his buttboy Kasich.

You’re truly pathetic.

I gave you a multi-point rebuttal and all you do is namecall. Very typical of the Cruz Cult.

I’ve never been in a union and never will.

Get back to your boyfriend. Maybe if you’re good, he’ll let you take the gag ball out of your mouth this time.

So if they green light Ryan, we know where Ted stands on immigration.

Congratulations!

You have posted a total "it does not compute". I.e., if a is equal to b, then g must be equal to omicron.

[Cruz is] a fake conservative who never actually gets anything done.

What bill has he passed that has cut the deficit or Obamacare? Nothing.

Honestly, would you expect him to "get anything done" when he has spent his brief career putting his future on the line to expose the GOP Senate leadership?

Has he not "gotten a very big thing done" by educating us on the betrayal o the GOPe?

Has he not one exactly what his voters sent him to Washington to do, when the rest of the GOP Senate has hidden behind a lie?

What the hell happened to your good judgment? Did Trump wave a wand and shrink your brain?
