And Cruz the liar claimed he follows the original intent of the Constitution... And the Cruz supporters give up their natural born birthright.... stupid peoples. At least Esau required a bowl of RED pottage (lentils) for his birthright.
If the Dread Pirate Roberts twists himself into a pretzel again and upholds the _resident on DAPA and allows him to legalize illegal aliens we may be sunk before we can elect Trump.
RE: Why do you think he got Roberts planted on the supremes?
OK, I’ll have defend Cruz here even when I detested Robert’s decision on Obamacare ( two of them ).
If you reviewed the past posts and threads regarding Roberts here in FR when he was first nominated, most posts were POSITIVE about him many optimistic that he would be someone who would at least be like William Rehnquist.
Nobody but nobody expected him to become a legislator off the bench. In fact, based on the questions he asked during the oral arguments on the healthcare mandate, a lot were optimistic that he would make his decision based on what the law was written.
You cannot read people’s minds in advance. All you can do is base your decision on a person’s past record and his responses to questions put before him during the confirmation hearings.
So, to say that Cruz “planted” Roberts in the courts implies that he had some special insight into how Roberts would rule on cases before hand.
That is beyond his capability as a human being.
Heck, even Ronald Reagan did not exactly put an originalist in the SCOTUS. He nominated a less than sterling Sandra Day O’Connor.
