.@SenTedCruz and I just spoke for 40 minutes by phone about our love of this country. This man is the real deal. I'm all in! #TedCruz #tcot

.@SenTedCruz has finally won me over because of his steadfast devotion to conservative principles regardless of polls or opinions. #TedCruz- James Woods (@RealJamesWoods) November 23, 2015

Woods, known for his 40-year movie and television career, said he was moved by Cruz's devotion to conservative values regardless of how popular his principles were with the public. Cruz, he said, was "the real deal."

Cruz retweeted Woods' statement and thanked him for his support.

Ted Cruz

Great speaking with you and truly honored to have your support!

[Fungi]

Yes!

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Ooh! Piece of candy!

[gwgn02]

Another great endorsement for Ted Cruz!

[americas.best.days...]

Good call Jimmy.

He’s fun to follow on Twitter btw.

[TXBlair]

Nice!!

[BlessedBeGod]

Reading his tweets every now and then, I couldn’t understand why he was for Carly. I’m so happy he’s come over to Ted.

Woods’ IQ is said to be 180 — double what seems to be required to make it in Hollywood. (I’m not saying this is the smartest choice — just that a smart person made it.)

Glad he saw the light. He was supposed to do voice for one of her ads.

That’s something you don’t see everyday: An MIT grad cheering on a Harvard grad. But it’s great to see the Mass Avenue Mafia producing two great patriots.

[sparklite2]

James tells it like it is.

[Mike Darancette]

James is as smart as they come and a real patriot.

[Tamzee]

As a huge fan of both Cruz and Woods, this is wonderful to see :-)

That's it the election is over now that James Woods is back Cruz! Jk

Cool endorsement though!

[gaijin]

James Woods went to M.I.T.

[SunkenCiv]

After the long holiday weekend, she'll announce that she's either suspending her campaign or is dropping out.

[Joe 6-pack]

It’s a good thing Woods is smart enough to get a good paying job outside of Hollywood, because after endorsing Cruz it’s unlikely he’ll ever work in that town again.

I’m waiting to hear from Stacey Dash.

[Twinkie]

You don’t mean “the” Stacey _ (dash).
