“Cruz is a career politician.”

If you call serving once in an elected office by winning the US Senate in 2012 a ‘career politician’, then you are completely delusional, friend.

BTW, what is your criteria for calling someone not a career politician? Never running for office?

Cruz’s entire career has been in politics:

Director of the Office of Policy Planning at the Federal Trade Commission
Associate deputy attorney general at the United States Department of Justice,
Domestic policy advisor to President George W. Bush on the 2000 George W. Bush presidential campaign.
Solicitor General of Texas from 2003 to 2008, appointed by Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott.
Longest-serving solicitor general in Texas history.

That was before he duped the people of Texas into handing him the Senate seat.
