Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

That's the first sentence, no need to read any further. I can get that quality of rantings right her on FR from the condescending crus supporters such as your self 24/7.

Nobody hates Ted Cruz! “Cruz’s Senate colleagues think he has been selfish rather than principled when he has picked fights with them.” See they don’t really hate him, they just think he is selfish.

And this is working for Ted Cruz because: “The Republicans criticizing Cruz, in other words, are going a long way toward proving that his criticism of them — that they are self-indulgent, parochial and uninterested in conservative principle — is correct.”

GO TED! BEAT TRUMP!

Me too.

I may have missed it, but I don't recall seeing any Trump supporter calling Ted "HITLER", his supporters" BROWN SHIRTS", a SOCIALIST, a COMMIE, and much worse, let alone claiming that they "HATE TED".

I think he means his fellow GOP Senators who have a big and strong dislike for Cruz. He can’t get anyone to help him intro legislation, people won’t let him in on planning, he is persona non grata inside the Senate GOP leadership.

I have seen worse behavior on Twitter. The Cruz supporters have no tolerance for a different opinion. Block for no reason. Can’t wait for Feb 2.

Interesting wording. Personally, I don’t hate anyone. I do recognize trump for what he is, progressive. America needs to return to its constitutional roots, Cruz is clearly the best man to accomplish that.

So I've heard.

I can't wait for Iowa, N.H., S.C., and Nevada to be behind us.

“Backfire?” That’s like saying spring rains backfired on the farmer. Almost every thread I post becomes clogged-up with Trumpets. It is what it is. I expect I could post a thread on 3D printing and the Trumpets would show up to claim that only Don Trump can make 3D printing viable and that Ted Cruz has been against 3D from the beginning and wants to send all our printers to Mexico.

He’ll celebrate third place? Well, that’s better than fifth place.

Being disliked by John McCain, Mitch McConnell, and Lindsey Graham is no shame.
