A year after the election and watching this awesome video again, I realize what the biggest problem is for Cruz in this: While he has an incredible array of so called facts (a lot of misrepresnations though - why we call him Lyin' Ted) at his command and puts together what he thinks is a seemingly good argument against Trump — he spends far more time talking than listening. He tries to dominate the conversation. This is part of why regular people just don’t like him. And on the million dollar judgement for hiring an illegal, Trump was the only one who ran who hired anyone - he hired 10's of thousands. Also gotta love that NYT whopper he kept telling about Trump not wanting to build a wall. Still beleive that, Ted? What a crazy primary it was and it is a time that will never happen again.

Why are we picking at scabs? Did Cruz say or do something recently to thwart President Trump’s agenda?

Are you saying that you DO NOT agree with Ted that Hillary would have been a better president?

What kind of ‘conservative’ are you?

Why are we rahashing this again? It’s done, the campaign is over and PDJT is exceeding expectations.

Dude, you need to give this a rest and move on. We’ve got bigger battles we have to fight to MAGA.

When I discovered that Lyin’ Ted did not reveal the money he received from Goldman Sachs in his Senate campaign, I felt he was more prone to join the swamp dwellers than to eliminate the swamp dwellers.

Excellent analysis and thanks for posting again this hilarious video. It reminded me of the old Andy ‘n His Gang tv show in which Andy was trolled by Froggie the Gremlin. It was this and Snarly Carly falling off the platform that told me he wasn’t going to win...

When Cruz and the other GOP candidates blamed Trump(or refused to condemn those actually responsible)for the Soros/Obama funded violence at the Trump rallies I was through with the GOP forever.

I do not forgive them, nor will I forget their cowardice.

Why bring up Lyn’ Ted? He’s dead, had and wasted his 15 minutes, no one likes him, he’s not even eligible to be president, and if someone credible were to challenge him, I’m sure most Texans would dump the him without hesitation. He, Rubio, Warren, Bush 3rd, Clinton, Beck, Levin, and all are history. Let it go.

Really nothing better to do on a New Year day?

The election is over and the right and only man for the job won BIGLY.

Cruz made mistakes. Name anyone more consistently conservative in the Senate? Anyone else ever get on record on the senate floor calling out the majority leader from his own party a liar?

MAGA and stop doing what always kills conservative principles which is our uncanny ability and desire to eat our own. Liberals hang together conservatives hang each other.

Taking a quick look at several 2016 old Cruz threads are much comedy these days looking back. ;-)

What is the point of this? You can go through and find everything I said at the time as well...I believed every word of it. Turns out President Trump did follow through and his sudden conversions on a host of issues were in fact genuine - or at least he is keeping his word to do what he said he was going to do in exchange for the votes...more so than many other politicians. He is appointing excellent judges...that alone makes him worth having him there and not Hillary as that will last decades.

Cruz personally had a bitter issue with Trump saying things like accusing his father of being involved in assassinating President Kennedy - that was over the top.

But in any event, why are we trying to reopen old wounds like this at this point in time? There have been major victories accomplished. Let’s keep moving forward and not look back at this stuff.
