The meat of the article:

Senator Ted Cruz took office in January of 2013. January through September of 2013 Cruz campaigned against Obamacare even forcing a government shutdown over the funding for it. It appeared he was doing the right thing – for the right reasons. However, he was getting massive intense backlash for a junior senator with only a few months on the job – soon the pressure became too much, he was islolated, ridiculed and marginalized into defeat. He collapsed – retreated and made a decision.

In October of 2013 Cruz made a strategic decision to get his political life kick-started and try to regain credibility and influence. To achieve this he partnered with the very political machine he previously opposed, including the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and then Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.

McConnell directed Cruz to join the NRSC.

Through 2014 Cruz participated as Vice-Chair inside the NRSC as part of that alignment with the DC machine.

However, the DC machine was working on a very specific set of objectives which, while noted at the time, were not fully understood. They only became most visible as time provided a historical analysis.

Two great outlines of what was going on are available HERE PART 1 -and- HERE PART 2.If you haven’t read those outlines, you will be lost moving forward.

While those corrupt machinations were going on, Senator Ted Cruz remained part of their overall program – working earnestly to assist the NRSC and simultaneously refusing to assist any political entity who was not in alignment with the overall objectives. In short, he sold his soul to McConnell Inc. around Christmas 2013.

AFTERthe scheme became toxicly visible -thanks to the Mississippi primary election of Thad Cochran/Chris McDaniel- Senator Cruz was at risk of losing all of his conservative bona-fides.

In June/July of 2014 he made another strategic decision to ‘optically separate’ himself from the McConnell led crew and the fiasco that was exploding inside the Mississippi election and the relationship to the NRSC and GOPe apparatus. It was a political decision, not based on principle but rather based entirely on saving his own political life.

Cruz needed, found and executed a political stunt to provide him cover as he retreated – He also enamored himself with radio host Mark Levin.

At the same time, in order to control his exposure, Cruz joined forces with Glenn Beck around the summers’ “Humanitarian Crisis” and Unaccompanied Alien Children; all in June/July/August 2014.Distractions.

However, even though he publicly separated himself from McConnell Inc., Cruz carried the same objectives of the overall 2013 plan forward. He did so behind the scenes, quietly invisible to all those not paying specific attention, so it would not draw as much notice.

You’ll note Senator Ted Cruz never once campaigned for a conservative challenger to an incumbent in the 2014 mid-term campaign races – nor did he ever discuss the absence of a federal budget now the republicans were in control of both the House and the Senate.

While publicly railing against what he called the DC Cartel, a group he was bound to assist from his prior pledge to them, he worked to deliver their goals nonetheless.

This was ultimately evident in: ♦ Comprehensive Immigration reform and amnesty ♦ The Iran Deal (Corker-Cardin Amendment) he supported, and later in ♦ The TPA construct, which became votes, to insure TPP passage on behalf of the original team he pledged support to in 2013.

In each case candidate Cruz now attempts to distance his own culpability and ownership within it. However, he is only able to distract people (“GASLIGHTING”) to the extent that voters were not engaged in following the day-by-day scheme(s) as they unfolded.

In essence, Cruz is able to fool people in 2015 using the same approach he used in 2012 to get elected. To insure that deception he adds an element of cult-like affiliation via religionand now various psychological targeting.

To give you an idea how that manipulative intent reveals itself – here’s a video of senate candidate Cruz prior to becoming elected. Pay attention to the explanation(s); because since 2012 you’ve heard this same set of explanations used again on various points:

Excellent summary of CRuz’s history of ‘flip flopping’, or twisting. You’ve provided links and research history, for all points.

If folks would only take the time to read through, rather than only attack, it would be enlightening, for many.

Thank you.

Great post and research Branch.

The bloom is coming off the Rose for Cruz(R-Goldman Sachs)
I was once a Cruz supporter. Donated to his campaign(still getting 3
emails a day begging for money) and attended 1 rally in Jackson, Tn.

I have come to believe he is not the man he pretends to be.
He is not a bad man. He is just another of many typical politicians.
Nothing more.

That Cruz quarter of a million dollars ($200,000.00) cheerfully handed over to McConnell and Company (NRSC) was never known to conservatives, at the time.

But, we did know how Cruz “utterly” (his favorite word) FAILED conservative candidates under fire from the Establishment machine.

Now, we see that Cruz floated the Establishment boat by funding, to the tune of the $200,000.00, the “MISSISSIPPI TREATMENT”, that hired on the Haley Barbour machine out to crush the conservative leading in the polls, in order to re-elect Thad Cochran, (R-MS), the mule of the Establishment on every single vote and issue.

ALL conservatives were pained at the time that Cruz disappeared during all conservative candidates vital struggles to keep their head above furious waters. Not a word from Cruz, but some glorified defense on one or two occasions, alluding to his immense dignity and distinguished position prohibiting him from supporting candidates fighting for us and their political lives, during all those state races.

THAT was the turning point that something was up with Ted, and whatever it was, it smelled.

I don’t really know how he slept after leaving that conservative twisting in the wind in Mississippi, after he was leading against Cochran, but handily cut down by the Cruz/NRSC shenanigans and money machine that bought black democrats into the primary, their radio stations and neighborhood ads smearing the conservative.

Additionally, Cruz has been stripped clean. Rubio exposed him chapter and verse in the debate, and though Rubio is guilty, the point is that this revelation was the first concise package of examples and a PUBLIC litany of Cruz’ hypocrisy.
