No Cruz is not a conservative he’s a calculating opportunist.

Ted Cruz has served the citizens of Texas well. I’ve said many times, as solicitor general of Texas he fought the Obozo administration before the Supreme Court over a dozen times to defend the citizens of Texas against federal overreach by that dumb @$$ Obozo...and won!
As Senator, he has continued to fight leftist and has made very positive impacts even though our side is not in power.
I’m guessing by your FR handle, you’re from Georgia. GG, go back and research Ted Cruz’s voting record. Have you done this? If you have not, you will see a SOLID conservative voting record.
Opportunist? Damn, he is wading through the D.C. swamp and before there was ever a Donald Trump, Cruz referred to the swamp/deep state as the Warshington Cartel.
Furthermore, Trump’s got his warts as well. He is a freakin bloviating, yankee ego maniac...but was a DAMN good president. Let’s not dismantle our side right before critical elections in a few months.
It would be a huge mistake as there is so much on the line in November.
They all are calculating. I wouldn’t trust the whole lot of them further than I could throw them. Even the “good” ones seem to change as soon as they get a whiff of the goodies.
They’re in it for power or something just as important (money? keeping their secret? allowing that pesky “NBC” clause to be ignored?). Constituents don’t matter, the Constitution doesn’t matter, honor & truth don’t matter.
Cruz wanted/wants to be President — he was embarrassed by Trump, and maybe he can’t let it go. So perhaps this was his way to get back in the running with some promises made that he can call on when needed. He mumbles a little apology and then hopes it goes away.
Who knows?
