We’re often asked why not just unmask candidate Ted Cruz and lay bare with all of the gathered research on his manipulative intents. The simplest answer can be found in the following analogy some might be familiar with:
…â€have you ever tried to convince a 17-year-old teenager their boyfriend is wrong for themâ€?…
There are some things you make a decision not to do, choosing instead to watch people awaken on their own, at their own pace. Preferring to support them after the awakening.
Ted Cruz, as a known toxic entity, is one of those type of examples.
What Campaign Chief Jeff Roe describes in the recent Washington Post article is MK-Ultra type of psychological operations.
The objective goes hand-in-hand with the approach Senate Candidate Ted Cruz first deployed in his 2012 bid to become a U.S. Senator.
Many of us who supported Cruz at the time (2012) recognized the concerning aspect, but set it aside as an issue ‘for future reference’.
However, when you digest the approach, it accurately describes why “religion†is an essential element in his campaign. It also explains why Cruz can turn against someone like Sarah Palin, once her usefulness was exhausted – now, collaboratively with Glenn Beck, calling Sarah Palin “a clownâ€.

Where was the “barf alert” warning?
Guess truth is now ‘faith’. Why not? Everything else is backwards.
Cruz might pick up some voters, but most of us have already decided who we are going to vote for...
I never have liked Cruz, there is a ‘Carson’ thing there, something just doesn’t feel right...could be a lot of things...
Bump
see my screen name
He never figured this would come to light.....but Cruz said behind closed doors that his sucking up to Trump has been calculated to assure that when Trump falters, he will collect the lions share of Trump voters.
Another big reason to dislike the calculated Cruz......who is not a very likeable person to begin with.
An honest candidate campaigns on his own strengths.
Cruz believes he cant win on his own.....and he’s right
about that.
INCONVENIENT FACTOIDS Cruz's wife is a G/S exec; G/S is w/ Obama on amnesty, G/S hired illegal aliens.
============================================
Is he a patriot or just a wannabe? The lackluster Cruz has little to no charisma who's been mired in low ratings since the beginning. There's an artificiality about Cruz, an emptiness that does not inspire confidence. Seems to be saying: "Look at me, A Canadian Latino running w/ the big guys. "
Cruz was born in Canada to an American mother, and latino father....Cruz duped Texans when ran for office...not acknowledging he was a dual Canadian-American citizen.
It was not until a 2013 Dallas Morning News article that Cruz finally acknowledged his Canadian citizenry publicly. In 2014, he renounced his Canadian citizenship altogether....but nobody knows whether the Texans who elected him to office are aware of it.
Cruz got elected touting his "latino" credentials though only his father is supposedly latino. Cruz even duped the Senate biographer into listing him as "the only latino" elected to the Senate (besides Rubio).
App attack. If true, this is a definite turnoff.
But it is thought we were to abandoned our faith in a Higher Authority. If so, what and where does that leave US? Back to non-existent truth?
So now the best attack you Trumpanzees have got is that Cruz is a latino? You’re embarrassing yourselves.
Let’s not forgot Ivanka Trump is best friends with Chelsea Clinton, fund-raised for Cory Booker, supported same-sex marriage, said women don’t receive equal pay for equal work. Since you brought up Cruz’ wife and all. She’ll probably be the first lady since Melania Trump is best-known for a career in the girlie magazine circuit.
If the app asks if you want to share your contacts, then what’s the problem? The app is downloaded by his hardcore supporters who are trying to be part of the campaign and spread the word.
He didn’t say it was calculated. He said in the “secret” recording that he likes Trump and Carson. There was no calculation about it.
All you Trumpocrats can do is spread lies about Cruz. It’s very off-putting, disgraceful and disappointing.
A disclaimer about me....I'm the eternal optimist, hoping that someone or something will turn the US around. Politicians who reach prominent office, except perhaps for Jeff Sessions and maybe some of the younger US Senators, have proven to be disappointments.
When Cruz first came out for his magnificent 21 hours, I supported him. When he started his campaign promising to be the candidate of us little folk (paraphrasing) I donated the $25 a month I'm able to put aside for political and charitable contributions. Then the stuff began its slow assault on my loyalty. Wanting to increase H1B Visas by a multiple....oops. Gung ho for getting into the war in Ukraine. Supporting the first TPA, ignoring former supporters cyber-screaming....yikes. Then, getting cute about saying it was okay because he didn't support the second one. His wife's banker buddy contributions. Deep pocket donors with an agenda. And now behind closed doors discussions with deep pocket donors who will want favors in exchange for their confidentiality.
That's a lot of stuff, now that I put it in one place.
This is totally different from the Trump approach of creative problem solving. You identify the problem and come up with a solution. Then you get the best and brightest involved into taking that solution and making it even better. Sometimes the very best ideas come from crazy ideas that generate the thought process and get everyone involved.
Cruz doesn't seem to have that in him. It's more like he's got all the answers. Maybe that's immaturity. I suspect I had all the answers when I was the age Cruz is now.
Sorry that this is over-long. Sometimes I need to type quickly to get my thoughts together.
Excerpt:
“In October of 2013 Cruz made a strategic decision to get his political life kick-started and try to regain credibility and influence. To achieve this he partnered with the very political machine he previously opposed, including the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and then Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.
Ted cruz and rand paulMcConnell directed Cruz to join the NRSC.
Through 2014 Cruz participated as Vice-Chair inside the NRSC as part of that alignment with the DC machine.”
A few Cruz “accomplishments” include:
- Silence during Mississippi voter fraud
- Voting for the infamous Corker bill
- Voting for TPA
- Now pushing “Pathway Amnesty” for the ILLEGAL ALIENS in America
I think you just put your finger on why some of us don’t like or ‘trust’ Cruz, plus, I have been told this, and am looking for the document of when Cruz ‘told McConnell he was a liar’ he was alone on the Senate Floor with just a camera man...like I said, I don’t have the proof of it yet, just hear say, but it did come from a great source...
A lot of people might not like Trump for his style, but he’s out there with it, and all of it, his three wives, his women between wives, his family, his business, who he has dealt with in his business, from a little boy going around with his father to the man he is today, it’s all out there...we have to dig to find that Cruz’s parents divorced right after he was born...there are a lot of things about Cruz that I don’t like....
I understand why it’s not a problem for Tedaroids and Cruzaholics. They’re eaten up with all things Ted.
But for just everyday normal people who aren’t tech savvy it might be off-putting to learn that Ted is stealing private info.
..and then there’s that....
I think you nailed the difference between the candidates. Trump is prepared to run the country and Cruz to argue a case before the Supreme Court.
The latter is great and we need that, but things are so bad winning a couple of even key supreme court cases (and do recall Roberts and Kennedy are on the court if anyone thinks that is going to happen) is not going to change things very much. Fighting in the courts is like trench warfare in WWI. Lots of ammo, lots dead, but at the end the front moves 50 yards and you go at it again. Back and forth it goes - Ayayayayay!
Yep, and the irony of it all is that just two short years ago, there was almost universal FR demand for Cruz to run. Now, some of those very same people are taking glee in tearing the man down, after he gave them what they wanted.
