The assessment of just how significant is the size of #NeverTrump is the key question
Is it big enough to cause Trump to lose?
If Trump loses, is it big enough to garner the nomination for Cruz in 2020?
What is the impact on Trump’s supporters, who will remember into the future?
In the final analysis, I think he made a poor, emotional decision, with more downside than upside.
He has to ask?
Cruz is not now nor will he ever be a ‘natural born’ US citizen. It won’t matter if he lives to be 100 years old. Ted Cruz is NOT eligible to hold the office of US president, his parents did not bestow that requirement upon him. I am repulsed by the likes of the Limbo bros who deliberately speak with forked tongues about the ‘original intent’ of our Constitution and then act as if magically Ted Cruz is eligible. POX on them.
he sure made himself look bad, really super bad.... that’s for sure
let’s see if Texans re-elect him or not
Except Ted Cruz is about 10% of what Nixon was.
Nixon was nominated. Nixon came within a whisker of beating Kennedy, and probably actually did.
Nixon had met with many global leaders, was very astute with regard to foreign affairs, and was not a one term do nothing Senator at Ted’s stage of the game.
Nixon had served two terms as vice-president.
Ted... good grief he has an over-inflated opinion of himself.
Not necessarily. Cruz is still relatively young and like Richard M. Nixonwho everyone thought was politically finished after his loss to Pat Brown in the California gubernatorial election in 1962 but made a spectacular comeback to win the Presidency in 1968Cruz will learn from this experience and maybe 8-10 years from now, become a viable Presidential candidate again.
That’s what Rush said earlier; almost word for word.
It should be.
I don’t know. Who would support a guy who trashes his wife and father?
What is with Rush?
Limbaugh is wrong on this. As if neither Rush nor Ted know the codeword “Vote Your Conscience!”. Not after the pre-convention and day 1 brouhaha about the ‘vote your conscience’ NeverTrump.
This is the same as if I say “Hands Up, Don’t Shoot” and I have no idea it is used codename by the BLM. All I am saying is hands up don’t shoot. So I shouldn’t get boo’ed.
It is my hope the Rick Perry will run against him in Texas. Perry was much bigger and a uniter NOT A DIVIDER although he was a strong anti-Trump adversary and disappointed in defeat.
But this guy cruz has totally dishonored himself. I remind all that it was CRUZ that displayed an 17 year old professional photo shoot of Melania where she was moderately exposed in a totally professional picture and implied disdain for HER!! Trump ,as he will do— RETALIATED. So it was CRUZ that attacked Trump’s wife and he now wants to forget that. Well, WE DON’T FORGET THAT and we will never forget that weezle last night. He is politically finished ,not only nationally but in his great state of TEXAS, I feel quite sure.
In eight to ten years there will not be enough voters left who will be unaware that Eleanor Elizabeth Wilson had given up her British and United States citizenship for Canadian citizenship in order to get subsidized medical care while she was pregnant with Ted.
He is done.
I've never heard of him - is that part of the point?
La Raza Rick Perry was run out of politics here in Texas, and we don’t need that filthy Islamist back in office here.
I live in Texas and those I have spoken to this morning, that previously support Cruz, will be looking for a replacement candidate in two years.
Texans dont take kindly to not pickin up a gun and join the fight when the Indians have you surrounded.
Principles are fine but dont win elections, if your looking for the PERFECT candidate you will never find them and never win an election.
Good news, thanks.
Yes. A savage critic of FDR and Truman. Won the Pulitzer Prize for exposing Hollywood union racketeering. In his later days, he was kicked out of polite society for making Anti-semitic comments.

Amazingly the first call that got through was a Trump hater. What were the odds?
