You know, you Cruzbots are as bad, if not worse than Trump supporters. You worship at the altar of St. Teddy Bear, Soccel Ball, Cruz. I believe there is a commandment - “thou shal have no other gods before me.” Cruz isn’t as pure as the snow - but, you all can’t see that . He’s just a man, and has made some big boo boos - but none of you will admit it. So, live with your delusions.
