Fully agree. While Ted Cruz is a better conservative and a better candidate on paper, he is in the end a politician who is used to achieving compromise rather than taking charge.
We need a take charge executive who is not concerned with re-election and doesn’t care about making enemies. This may be our only opportunity to elect such a person.
“While Ted Cruz is a better conservative and a better candidate on paper, he is in the end a politician who is used to achieving compromise rather than taking charge.”
I wouldn’t put Ted down to that level, after all he did shut down the government over Obamacare (however futile it was), and he did actually go to the House in Jan, 2014 and tell them that their great plan for Immigration that was being pushed by the leadership, especially Cantor (I think they called it a White Paper, or something like that), was simply AMNESTY, and Ted stopped it.
Having said that...if Ted became our next president, the Dems would simply WALK ALL OVER HIM, as they did to Bush Sr., and Bush Jr., to a slightly lesser extent. That won’t happen with a President Trump...for sure.
