As a Trump guy, this is pure BS.

I hope the people that gave this fool money got at least a pat on the head after he was done.

Wasn't some sort of protest allowed at the WW2 memorial but shut out veterans from entering?

It *became* a protest when a bunch of ninety year old WW2 vets had come a long way to see it and the Park Service trucked in portable fencing and 'closed' signs and ringed the normally open-air memorial. There was no earthly reason to do so except out of spite. I think Cruz turned up and helped push down the barriers.

Gee, Cruz is a politician who stands for what he said he believes.
We MUST put an end to that!

Graham then states the classic establishment measure of success: passing legislation! What a measure!
The measure of a good legislator is not passing more laws, but working to prevent a run away, inept Congress!

McCainiac’s attack Pekinese is at it again.

Go get ‘em, Grahamnesty. No one is paying attention to you and your neocon rantings, but keep on barking.

Anytime this mealy-mouthed second-rate ambulance chaser annoys you—go make a small donation to John McCain’s primary opponent in AZ. that’s the thing that would get Lindsey’s goat.

One suspects that there is no small amount of jealousy here.

Senator Cruz is, of course a Senator.

The fact that Mister Grahamnesty is also alleged to be a senator, and he never got a significant fraction of the support than did Senator Cruz, shows Mister Grahamnesty to be dissed by the grass roots GOPers as the failure that he will always be remembered to be.

And, Mister Grahamnesty's choosing to go out in a totally petulant and classless style?

Not to be unnoticed by history.

Yes.

It was quite bad “optics” as the political class say.

What you are insinuating about Grahm is actually how the McCain group came together. The gay Republicans were being blackmailed by Democrat activists, “vote against the Consrvatives or be outed”. McCain gave them cover by consistently voting against Conservative legislation.

Thank you, Graham, for reminding me why I like Cruz so much.
