CDS still burns hot.
Some just can’t let go of a grudge.
Must suck.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Cruz’s response is a non-sequitur.

[Mastador1]

help me out, I read the Cruz vote and didn't see any piling on or negative about trump, Turner on the other hand was a little shit but people here just can't get past their problems.

They say Trump lives rent free in some people's heads, if that's true than I can't help but believe there are a hell of a lot of people that must be paying Cruz to live in theirs!

[conservative98]

Exactly he could have chose to support Trump or said nothing, but once again cannot do so. And instead implied that Trump is all about nastiness, attacks and insults and no substance.

How is this not taking the bait, Cruzers?

[NorthMountain]

CDS still burns hot.

Yes. Those people are pathetic. They're consumed with irrational hate, and it destroys their minds. It's something they have in common with demonicRATs.

[bgill]

Hey, Ted, explain why the cops found Heidi crying on the side of the highway in the middle of the night a few years ago.

[AppyPappy]

“I am appalled that Trump might have almost said something and I condemn the possible language in the strongest terms”.

[tumblindice]

Precisely.
Cruz: I can’t (clearing throat) comment on the terrible things he said except to say my wife Heidi and her family are all 3rd world social justice warriors, you could have had me and blah blah
Classic Tead.

Lyn’s Ted, still can’t support PRESIDENT Trump?

[Fantasywriter]

‘I can tell you my family, Heidi as a child lived in Africa, she lived in Kenya and Nigeria. Her parents were missionaries there. My brother-in-law has been a missionary with his wife and sons in Haiti for many years,” Cruz said.

Cruz said the approach he tries to take in Washington is to stay out of the nastiness, attacks and insults and focus on substance and results instead.’

If that’s not a backhanded slap at Trump I wouldn’t know what to call it. First Cruz righteously associates himself with Haitian missionaries. Then he even more righteously contrasts the approach of nastiness and insults [of which Trump is currently accused] with *his* substance-and-results approach.

Iow, the Haitian missionary-connected Cruz would not be nasty and insulting, like that Philistine, Trump, but Cruz would simply accomplish good things. (Of which off hand I cannot list a single one.)

Hand me the barf bag—no, make it a double.

[tumblindice]

Get in here. The Cruzlims are restless.

[Pravious]

Let’s pretend Trump said something we don’t like, then attack him for the imaginary thing we say he said!
-
Sure seems like that, doesn’t it? Then make up a story that he slept with some porn actress a decade ago. If that doesn’t work, maybe they can try “Russia, Russia, Russia!”.

[V K Lee]

But THIS was to have been his time; just as HRC thought it to be hers.

WE lucked out....both failed.
POTUS DJT = MAGA

Anyone less = SH**HOLE (Is there no limit!?)

[upsdriver]

I can tell you my family, Heidi as a child lived in Africa, she lived in Kenya and Nigeria. Her parents were missionaries there. My brother-in-law has been a missionary with his wife and sons in Haiti for many years,” Cruz said.

So they already knew that those places were shit holes.

President Trump denied using the vulgarity.

The word shit is not a vulgarity.

[hal ogen]

The fools should have said "the comments if they occurred (the President has denied it)..." Continual hatred of our President.

That’s not fair. It’s not “Cruz Derangement Syndrome.” There’s a perfectly good reason for people to detest Ted Cruz. He lied about our President during the campaign, and behaved abominably during the convention. That said, I commend him for (seemingly) putting the race behind him. If Trump doesn’t hold a grudge, there’s no reason for his supporters to.

[Fantasywriter]

Btw, when has Trump been getting savaged by the Democrats/press and Cruz ever had a supportive word to say? Everything I quoted from Cruz supported Cruz. When Trump could use an ally Cruz piles on. Like that time Soros hired Antifa to disrupt a Trump rally...and Cruz sided with Soros/Antifa.

When Trump could use some help, count on Cruz to help Cruz.

>>And yet people thought this guy (Ted) would make a great prez!<<

Until boogergate.

As a corollary, if you treat black crime statistics separately, the USA is as peaceful as Sweden.

[crosdaddy]

As peaceful as Sweden? So I guess, not so much.
