Uh, you do know that Texans lost and were massacred at that one right?

What did Jim Bowie say to Davie Crockett when they saw 5000 Mexicans running towards them?

"Hey Davie, are we pouring concrete today?"

I think I see Jim Bowie getting shish-kabobed, and Crockett using his hatchet. Travis in his riverboat gambler lid.

Oh, and there’s Cruz with a sword, in the lower right hand corner. That explains it.
See, when I attended Wilshire Elementary in San Antonio, we were taught that the Mexicans finally gave up and went away, something like the War of Northern Aggression which was fought to an inconclusive draw.
Ted’s just confused.

But it gave Sam Houston time to marshal his forces at San Jacinto. Not that I want to extrapolate here, but Cruz could score enough delegates to eventually keep Trump from 1237.

Really crappy analogy, comparing the events that led to Texas independence to a political campaign. The Trump/Cruz battle is two sabre tooth tigers fighting over mating rights, and their battle lands them in the Brea Tar Pits.

Guessing Cruz is assuming we consider Trump is the one the losing side? (rolling eyes)

North Carolina and South Carolina men and boys answered Texas' call for assistance. Not only Texans put their lives on the line for the Lone Star State at the Alamo.

Ain't happening again. Texas is on her own now with only a braggart's robe of conceit to shield her.

Sort of like last night...

Well, I don’t want to denigrate the fight at the Alamo, even if Tead can’t see a reason not to.
