There were far more thsn the 60 votes needed even without Cruz’s vote for cloture. Are you seriously saying that this was not going to be brought to the floor without Cruz?
Who can we thank for that? Paul Ryan and Ted Cruz working hand in hand to insure its passage, belittling conservatives as internet conspiracy kooks, and repeating GOPe talking points.
Cruz knew what he was doing, and just changed his mind at the last minute after fast track was guaranteed.
