I've come to this site every day since Ted Cruz became a national political figure. Perhaps I'm just getting old with a failing memory but I can't recall any derogatory posts about Cruz until Donald Trump began his ad hominem attacks on him. I don't remember Freepers attacking him as he built a record in the senate.
Can someone direct me to the threads and posts by the Freepers who now hate Cruz that were made prior to September of last year?
I am a CRUZ supporter!
I didn’t turn on him. I ordered a sign tonight. Where are you getting your information?
(Uhhhh...I kinda always thought that was Heidi’s “job”....)
It started right after they started handing out the koolaid at the tRump rallies.
IBTZ
When we stopped beating our wives, of course.
When they realized he’s a career politician. Worked in the Bush administration and working his way up to president.
Also, he’s not natural born. People can twist themselves like a pretzel to explain how he is really a natural born citizen but even the most rabid Cruz fans know better. Seriously, the founders didn’t mean for ‘natural born’ to be so damn flexible.
I think to some degree when little guy Ted needed help from donors to compete with Trump’s media coverage.
probably the same fools who drooled over shrub when he was president (as in the endless gushing posts on a day in the life of...) A lot of people here are died in the wool GOPe and not in the least conservative.
I liked Cruz, but his ads and such since Iowa have made me back off.
Similarly these same people now dislike Rush Limbaugh & Mark Levin...
Same here! Cruz 2016! And i admit, I am a newbie!
I’m a giant Trump supporter and held Sen Cruz in the highest esteem until the Carson issue. I still respect Sen Cruz and wish him well. I don’t cAll him names and I don’t insult his supporters on FR. Wish the same could be said for some of the Cruz supporters on FR.
It happened after you signed up. Coincidence? I think not. /s
I was always turned off Cruz, so I’m OK.
Are you high or drunk?
Who kissed who's ass?
It was Cruz who attempted to be buddy-buddy with Trump, never-mind not reading the frog and the scorpion tale.
This is big-league politics. Cruz has no path to victory. The American people want the borders sealed, ISIS' ass kicked, and high-paying manufacturing jobs back in the U.S of A.
When Cruz supporters turned on those on FR that were supporting Trump.
I don’t know exactly when it started but it got all ramped up when Trump turned on Cruz after Cruz turned down his offer to run as Trump’s VP.
Your probably reading bias because Freepers have always torn stripes off the candidates they do not support.
I think about 90% of Freepers would be happy to cast votes for Trump orvCruz, if only to keep Hilary/Bernie out of office.
