>>He did not just keep bashing Trump again did he?<<

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Well, there were the sections where he simply copied Trump, almost word for word.

But otherwise, the Cruz speech was vacuous, punctuated by that goofy grin.

It reminds you that the only reason he is where he is is that he followed closely behind Trump, drafting him as it were, when he plowed through Bush, Carson, Krispie, Carly, Rubio et. al. Cruz could have never made it through on his own. Not a strong enough politician.

“Let me say at the outset, perhaps to the surprise of a previous speaker, Palestine has not existed since 1948.

If you want to get picky, Palestine never existed at all. It is what the Romans called the area. Can Cruz be anything other than a smart-ass? In fact, there are no such thing as Palestinian people... they are a composite of Jordanian refuse and such. But there is nothing wrong with the current reference. Cruz is such a douche.

Spoken like a true Trumpophile. Personally I would appreciate a truthful unbiased opinion.

I saw all the candidates speeches. Ted Cruz’s speech was by far the strongest, most detailed and most presidential.

Lou Dobbs cut away from Cruz speech. Who can blame him? LOL

“Let me say at the outset, perhaps to the surprise of a previous speaker, Palestine has not existed since 1948.”

Let me say about your outset, anyone can have a slip and everyone knew what he meant.

I also noticed, for the few seconds that I listened, that Cruz referred to himself as a Texas Cuban, or something like that. He is like Obama, completely ignoring his white mother’s genetic contribution, as opposed to his Canadian Cuban father. Shouldn’t he be thinking of his American half on occasion, since he is running for president?

“The fact that he had to mention Trump and that Trump didn’t mention him means he’s already lost.”

Exactly! Cruz has become as irrelevant as Elizabeth Warren.

I'm going to quote WalterSkinner, because he nailed it:

"..Cruz knocked em dead at AIPAC—nobody alive could have given a better speech on US/Israel relations...."

Cruz dumped in his stump speech Trump = Hillary smear later in the speech. What a small and vain man he is.

Meanwhile Cruz supporter , Lying Levin, is busy compiling blacklists of solid true Conservatives that support Trump ...

Do you approve of this disgusting behavior ?

Ted could’ve done without the cheap, self-serving campaign insults against Trump (which Trump was claasy enough to avoid in his own speech), especially in a solemn event such as this, but beyond that major quibble, it was a fine speech by the junior senator from Texas.

What’s wrong with NATO countries chipping on the cost of protecting them??

Cruz is doubling down on Brain. Dead. Stupid.

Gratuitous and unwarranted slam of Trump. Cruz has been outclassed. It’s over.

I caught both Trump and Cruz. Obviously someone wrote Trump’s speech for him because it was NOTHING like his rally speeches or interviews and directly contradicted things he had just said in an interview. He can’t say anything without naming dropping.

Considering the audience, and the moment, it was a petty and mindless sucker punch. Cruz diminishes daily.

There is no way that Trump could have written any of his speech. /sarc

The man is extremely intelligent, and while I don’t doubt that he consulted with others on his speech, I doubt that it was just written for him and he just read it. That isn’t how he does things.

Cruz is far too obsessed with Trump. He cannot get Trump out of his mind. It is pathetic to watch. Every time he speaks, I am thinking, “When is he going to mention Trump?”
