And then let other so-called conservatives complete the job.

Suddenly Cruz is savaged by the so-called conservatives because he did not work with McConnell! Do you believe that? McConnell the RINO! That was what attracted me to Ted when he had the guts to call McConnell a liar for...lying! McConnell had promised to not vote on the crony bank of exports, then he reneged on it and Cruz called him out on it from the floor of the Senate! It should have been glorious to any self-respected limited government conservative. Yet look at you now savaging Ted Cruz in support by an article by the ComPost!

So, he agreed to vote for TPA if the import/export bank wasn't included? Take a look how he's acting right now. Who names a VP running mate when your 400 delegates behind? He's mathematically eliminated, but like Kasich, will not drop out. The only thing he offers up is that he is the Anti-Trump candidate. Compare that with Trump who just gave a major speech on his foreign policy platform. Listen to Trump's rallies. Aside from the occasional jab at Kasich and his wolverine eating habits and Ted's frequent lies, he discusses issues such as trade, immigration, etc.

This election taught me that Cruz is in it for Cruz. He talked a good game when it started, but came up flat and has nothing to offer. And yes, before he even announced, it was well known that he is despised with just about everyone who has worked with him. Starting from college, to the Bush campaign, to his time in the Senate. Can everyone who associated with him and dislike him be wrong?

The bottom line is that as a senator, he needs to work with others to enact laws that he feels are beneficial to the country. Mike Lee is more conservative than Cruz and he is not despised. Jeff Sessions is conservative and very respected.

Here’s the rub: Cruz knew McConnell was lying, when he put on his little dog and pony show. Everyone of his aides told him Mitch was lying, and not to trust him. SO, he knew, but, used it to attract fools like you who believed he was an outsider. He did it to gain publicity. Wise up!

You can’t win with some. I guess the guys going along with McConnells crap are better at “getting along”. You can’t have it both ways. You all understand McConnell and Boehner HATE Tea Party citizens. Where was Trump when the Tea Party rallies were going on? Praising Hillary and Kerry.
