the non-existent Bush-Cruz relationship.

Really?

_____________________________________

Cruz joined the George W. Bush presidential campaign in 1999 as a domestic policy adviser, advising then-Governor George W. Bush on a wide range of policy and legal matters, including civil justice, criminal justice, constitutional law, immigration, and government reform.

Cruz assisted in assembling the Bush legal team, devising strategy, and drafting pleadings for filing with the Supreme Court of Florida and U.S. Supreme Court, the specific case being Bush v. Gore, during the 2000 Florida presidential recounts, leading to two successful decisions for the Bush team.

Cruz recruited future Chief Justice John Roberts and noted attorney Mike Carvin to the Bush legal team. After President Bush took office, Cruz served as an associate deputy attorney general in the U.S. Justice Department

In 2003, Heidi Cruz worked for the Bush administration on economic policy. Eventually becoming the director for the Western Hemisphere on the National Security Council under National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice in 2003.

If these are not close relationships, I don't know what is. You might want to retract your statement okie.

“He and his wife can go back to being legal GOPhers for Bush clan. “

“That is nasty”

No...THAT is a fact. Both of them worked in the Bush administration. Ted was domestic/immigration policy adviser. I want to know what part he had in Bush’s amnesty and insulting everyone who didn’t like it.

Cruz worked for George Bush. That’s a fact...why dispute it? Even Bush dislikes Ted.

Trump, PRIVATE CITIZEN, has the right to socialize with anyone he wanted to! It wasn’t your tax $$$ paying for it, unlike Ted Cruz collecting a salary in the Senate and not doing his job to earn it.

Cruz is one of my Senators. I am quite satisfied with the job that he is doing for me. I would be quite happy to have Cornyn go home and only have Cruz as my Senator.

You cite several occasions across four years, dated over a decade ago.

And I admitted to Cruz working to elect the Bush administration. And so did I. Does that make me a part of the Bush establishment, too?

In fact, I might ask whether you also worked to help elect Bush in 2000 and/or 2004? And if not, why not?

At any rate, I cited a couple of more recent events that are more telling. Cruz is clearly not a part of the "Bush team" today. To argue otherwise is to be ignorant of current events.

At least Cruz didn’t give $$$ to Hillary and the Foundation. Trump cannot hide from that.

This is your statement, your words, which are totally incorrect and BS.

Trump and many of his supporters are poor winners.

Not yet, LOL.

If you read it, you sure as hell didn't understand it.

I stipulated that Cruz helped elect GWB, did I not?

The issue is, though, whether Cruz is still part of the "Bush team" -- and, clearly, he is not.

Jeez...
