scooby, do you know if Sessions has responded about Trump’s mentioning increasing the H-1B visas? That has to be a body blow to him.

Well I think Ted has kind of taken the mask off at this point. If you have a pulse you know that the Bush team joining Cruz is not helping the outsider charade.

Oh good. Another state we don’t need help with in the general. That Cruz, when it’s completely irrelevant you can depend on him.

Yeah, the Dem ads just sort of write themselves now. Cruz/Bush are joined at the hip for 2016.

Trump position on H-1B is clear.

Congresses ability to screw up a majority with a President that had an approval rating near 40% speaks volumes. They should wear those shirts...for themselves and leave Trump out of it. Trump is as a result of the ineffectiveness and fecklessness of Congress and the Republicans over the last 30 years. Cruz’s campaign bringing on the Bush family speaks volumes.

I don’t care who’s an “outsider.” I want a rock-ribbed conservative who’s worked in government and knows everything that’s wrong with it first hand. That’s why I liked Newt and now Cruz. If you want an outsider, draft Oprah Winfrey for V.P.

It shows Cruz can work with the establishment to get things done like Trump has been saying he wants to do all year.

So Cruz is not the outsider insurgent candidate he has campaigned as?

Well up until Felito hired Neil Bush and a bunch of Bush staffers you were pretty hot for a severely conservative outsider. Now you will take what you can get which is Mitt Romney in Cuban clothing. :-)

Much like the Sessions endorsement of Trump, this is one of the few that I actually care about.

Question:
What religious denomination is Mike Lee?

That’s a minor issue. I’ll tell you how much the major members of the Bush family loves Ted Cruz. Cruz represented Texas in the Medellin v. Texas SCOTUS case - against George W. Bush, who still resents him for it. While campaigning for Jeb!, he said he just didn’t like Cruz. Because W took the wrong side of the Medellin case.

If Cruz were in the Bushes’ back pocket, he would not have taken that case to SCOTUS himself. He could have bowed out, citing personal reasons or whatever AGs use to avoid conflict of interest.

That took guts, and I’m glad he did it. Thanks to Texas winning that case, the UN and the World Court can’t interfere with our sovereign legal process.

That was before Teddy got involved with Stabby the Klown and Neil the ex criminal Bush and all the Bush staffers. It is what it is. He’s establishment and not an outsider. He’s toast in the presidential race as of next Tuesday so I’m losing interest fast. Soon nobody will even be talking about Teddy and he will be back in his senate seat.

Ted is now in the Bush’s back pocket. You know it, I know it and everybody knows it. Cruz is done after next Tuesday.

I don’t think the liason with the Bushes has made any difference. There is no path to the nomination for anyone but Trump, and I voted Cruz. Neil Bush should be a real albatross to Cruz.

For real. This place is full of freaking liberals now.

Thanks Trump.
