> “Now YOU are admitting Cruz was tricked.”
I am “admitting”? Not only are you putting words in Ted Cruz’ mouth, now you are putting them in mine. You think ‘trickery’ is confined to Ted Cruz? You need a reality check. Trickery is everywhere and no more so today everyday in Congress.
Ted Cruz represents sincerity, honesty and integrity, just what is needed in Congress and the White House. As President he will set the tone and change the climate just as Ronald Reagan did in 1981. Even Ted Kennedy in 1981 had to admit publicly that Ronald Reagan had brought “class” back into politics. Ted will do the same.
> “This trade and immigration stuff is really dragging him down.”
No it’s not. He’s doing fine in social media, on broadcast interviews and especially at the grassroots level.
People are not as dumb as you think. They can see past the mudslinging to the sincerity of the person. But you obviously lack that ability.
But there’s no stopping you from ‘reading the internet’ to get your view;. So sad for you.
> “When playing poker, it’s generally good to discard the unhelpful cards in your hand.”
A friend of mine is a national champion at poker. He ***often*** wins with some of the worst hands imaginable; that’s what makes him a champion player.
Ted Cruz by fighting for his constituents to be able to export their products and services abroad has succeeded in making Americans much more tuned to the nuances of international trade. Because millions of Americans believe in the sincerity of Ted Cruz, especially after having met him and talked to him, and after first approaching him with suspicions and cynicism, and walking away with much more awareness and with relief to know he is a great man worthy of their trust, his supporters are now much more aware of the true nature of developments inside the Beltway.
But you seem to think all those people are just too stupid to know your view.
Well I have news for you. You and your group here on FR are but a small handful. I’ve visited Ted’s facebook page, his twitter page, his blog and only a very small number are calling for his head like you are. It’s a very small group; tiny. For example, out of tens of thousands of tweets in the last 4 weeks, only about 4 tweets have come out against him. Look it up yourself.
Ted is doing fine. In fact he rocks.
But stay in your little echo chamber niche you found for yourself on FR. Iowa, New Hampshire are coming up soon. And judging by the buzz, Ted is going to blow away the MSM narrative and the little internet niches that detractors hide out in.
Here’s the real Ted embedded in the grassroots right here:
