It’s useless to try to post the logic behind Ted Cruz’s decision to vote a certain way to a mob that is totally and completely illiterate and unwilling to read or listen.

It’s much easier to just label Cruz a sellout, bought and paid for globalist, in bed with Obama, blah blah blah, all the while ignoring the fact that the biggest names opposing this bill are none other than Elzabeth “You didn’t build that” Warren and Chucky Schumer. They also seem to ignore the fact that while talk radio has come out against the bill, point me to one host that has dissed Ted Cruz on the vote (Limbaugh or Levin).

That’s funny. There seems to be hardcore leftists on both sides of this issue and I don’t see any of them tearing the others to shreds.

This country gets what it deserves with such a knee-jerking populace that reacts to every single thing like it’s the biggest thing in the entire world for that day and nothing else matters. That’s buying into the liberal media sensationalization of every little thing.

I’m convinced had social media been around in 1980 like it is now, the same clowns trying to diss Cruz would find something to hit Reagan on, probably Reagan’s selection of liberal running mates, or whatever else that would have had us seeing 4 more years of Carter or Mondale.

I mean this is just pathetic. Cruz defended his position for why he voted the way he did. You can agree or disagree with him on that. But to portray him as some kind of secret “leftist”? Cruz is the most honest and trustworthy politician we’ve had in the US Senate since Reagan.

My take on this bill is that is shouldn’t have been taken up right now. There’s some merits to it with a GOP President as been previously pointed out, so ok, wait until then. But McConnell brought the vote to the floor and Cruz had to make a decision to vote Yay or Nay (well, he could have voted Present, but..). The one thing you don’t get from Ted Cruz is spin. The problem is that when certain people are unable to listen to anything rationale or logical that contradicts their agenda, it’s a lost cause.

I had really high hopes that the type of attack garbage wasn’t going to hit Cruz like it did to so many of the candidates in 2012. It is sucking the enthusiasm right out of the room. Thanks alot.

Amen! Very well said. I’ve about had it around here. We have a Democratic party uniting around a corrupt pos and we’re infighting over piddly s—t. You can’t find a candidate that says 100% of what you believe. Ted Cruz is the closest thing to Reagan I’ve witnessed.

Do think anyone is happy Cruz SOLD OUT!

But Cruz sold out me, you, and our families !
there is no free trade in this Trojan Horse .
Ryan and Cruz want to get there Hedge Fund Donors more goodies and More H-1 Visas for his Billionaire pal in Vegas. So Stop the lying about Phony amendments to Fast Track Trade Bill which BANS All Changes .

Then Lies More Spinning and avoid the fact its an Open Treaty that Allows Obama a dedicated America hater to ram thru any changes at any time.

Do you Cruz bots have any idea the damage Open treaties have done to European countries now flooded third world millions they have to accept.

Ask Cruz why he wants to give our Enemy a radical Named Barry Soetoro unlimited power !
Get back to us on his answer to that one.
