Frankly, i can’t figure out why more Cruz supporters are not mad at him for using us. I’ve been supporting and rooting for him for years. I voted for him in his senate race and was delighted.
When he renounced his Canadian citizenship, I remember thinking how odd it was. Here is a sitting Senator from Texas and he hadn’t already DONE that? Why? He didn’t know about it? Ok, I said. It’s a little late, but ok.
Since then, like most Texans I assumed he had already handled any possible “birther” issues that may come up later if he ran for president. Wrong.
Then here a few weeks ago and this comes up again? I start reading all the “experts” who have doubts about his eligibility and all I can think of is, “WHY has he not already taken care of this?” He is the only person to blame. Ted Cruz and Ted Cruz alone is responsible for not clearing this up already! It’s selfish, and we’ve all been used as tools to further his political ambitions.
Someone... Anyone... Please tell me why it’s okay that Ted Cruz did not already get this issue definitively straightened out before now? It’s a simple question that no one can answer. What right does he have to ask me to vote for him, knowing that he is willing to put our country through a constitutional crisis because, for whatever stupid reason, he hasn’t taken care of this?
Fox News said last night that McConnell refused to take up a vote ensuring Cruz’ eligibility the way the Senate did for McCain and Romney. So it’s the establishment keeping him down.
The establishment and party bosses despise Cruz. There’s an old phrase, you’re either with the establishment or you’re against the establishment.
