Ted Cruz has been standing up to Senate leadersship since he came to the Senate in 2012. He wrote a book about a year ago that just came out a few months ago in which he outlines this. Not to take anything away from the Trump, but don’t take anything away from Cruz either. He’s been in this fight a while now.
Which is why I was (and still am) all Cruz. I know. I just didn’t have a lot of hope that cruz could avoid being Palinized. The libs I talked to wrinkled their faces up at my mentioning him. They considered him a crazy religious fanatic. In fact, while waiting for my son to have his hair cut, I actually picked up the Advocate to see what gay politics looked like today —— far leftist, there, now you don’t have to pick up the magazine, you’re welcome... -— and an article called him “anti-gay Ted Cruz.” Sheesh.
