Parton’s reference to Ted Cruz as a “Canadian performance artist cum politician,” is a clumsy attempt at best.
She knows he’s an American and she must know she is not fit to even mention his name.

Rand Paul forgot that primaries come ahead of general.

TOTALLY WRONG. If Rand was running as a Democrat, but took pro-life and took most of his latest positions, the article would make sense. However, what annoyed a lot of people here was Rand acting like a Democrat plant, when he said that the Republicans have to cool it on Voter ID and then wants felon voting rights. Push a lot of left-wing garbage and you won’t get very far in the Republican field.

Trump’s done the opposite - making a point to never anger the base, and his results are for all to see.

[It wasn’t too long ago that Rand Paul was viewed as a serious threat to the GOP nomination.]

That was before he came out in favor of letting Criminal Illegal Aliens in, and Criminal Citizens out.
