Ok, so I have been an early/often strong Cruz supporter, who in the last year or so have been less so.

In this race, I contributed to Cruz, Florina, Trump, and Carson.

So i get email from all of the above from being an early donor.

Last year I bombarded his office over his support for TPP - which he eventually started waffling on he eventually voted for fast tracking it.

Likewise he voted FOR the Corker bill - which essentially enabled the IRAN deal. At least he could have voted against it, even though it would have passed without him.

Lastly, he is a BIG supporter of H1-B Visa expansion. This was the deal breaker for me. I must have called his office 3-5 times. He teamed up with Rubio to support a tripling of the number of H1-B Visas. I don’t think it passed (need to check). If you have heard the Disney story about 150 US workers fired and forced to train their H1B Visa replacements, that is just ONE story — I have friends who have 20+ years industry experience who have been displaced and can’t find jobs. They have 1 or 2 degrees. And out of work at 40-50.

Also, Ted is silent on the exporting of American Jobs. So, he is part of the “Cheap Labor Express”.

This country can’t afford to loose any more paying jobs and taxpayers. It’s not on Ted’s radar. He’s a strong conservative in other ways, but SOMEHOW we have to pay our way out of this hole we have dug, and you can’t do that by selling our jobs out.
