Ted Cruz To Brody File: I'm The Only GOP Presidential Candidate, "Walking The Walk" (PP)

In an exclusive interview with The Brody File, Ted Cruz says he’s the only republican presidential candidate that’s been, “walking the walk.” What about his rivals? “The other candidates have not,” Cruz tells The Brody File.
Cruz points to the fight over Planned Parenthood, which he says he led, and others just talked a good game. “I was proud to lead that fight and it was striking that out of the other 10 fine men and women standing on that debate stage not a one of them was anywhere to be found. It was almost like they were in the witness protection plan. It’s very easy when the TV cameras are on you in the debate and say you support it. But can you imagine how different that fight would have been if all eleven major republican presidential candidates descended on Washington, spoke in unison and said, ‘Mitch McConnell and John Boehner stop sending 500 million dollars of taxpayer money to Planned Parenthood. That would have been leadership and I think the reason conservatives are coalescing around our campaign is because I’ve been walking the walk and the other candidates have not.”
We’re starting to see Cruz mix it up more now as the campaign season heats up. Cruz and his campaign team has been methodical since this presidential season began. They know what they’re doing and are fully aware of the cadence and pace to a presidential campaign. Cruz has issues as it relates to winning a General Election but can he win the nomination? He’s got a realistic shot.

Ted Cruz also talked about national poll numbers (almost irrelevant before October; the one whose name is mentioned the most on the media has the highest number) and caucus votes (from grassroots conservative groups who pay attention to the candidates' records) on the video.

He wants to defund ALL of planned parenthood.
Even if they weren’t in the infanticide business they should be defunded based on the fact that they’re supposedly private.

So that's it? That's what he's running on? Defunding Planned Parenthood?
What would he have to run on if they defunded Planned Parenthood tomorrow?
He has nothing else. He's all talk and an empty suit.

You're delusional. Nothing's been done.

Budget: Cruz has made massive financial deals, has put tens of thosuands of people to work, has run a billion dollar business, and protected a bottom line. Next flight of fantasy...
Civil Liberties: Trump has said he'll round up and deport illegal immigrants, build a wall that is 60 feet tall along our border. This results in his red marker on civil liberties. No sale.
Free Market: The "FREE MARKET"... Nothing in life is free. The cost of this "FREE MARKET" has been tens of millions of U. S. jobs. Trump wants to bring them back. That warrants a red marker. LOL
Health Care and Entitlements: Trump has proposed a private sector replacement of Obamacare. He wants to reduce entitlements as part of getting the budget under control. This red marker is simply proposterous.
Moral issues: What moral issues? Good grief. Name one moral issue Trump has a problem with.
Second Amendment: This is simply a fraud. Trump has a paper on Second Amendment rights, and it's recognized as a good one.
Taxes, Economy, and Trade: Trump's tax position is good. His economic experience is second to very few U. S. Citizens. His trade view are more solid than any other candidate's.
In Cruz's favor, his free market mark isn't deserved either.
Trump is the go to guy because of his economic experience. He is solid on other issues as well, but second to illegal immigration, our national debt and related matters are vitally important and need to be addressed. Trump is the only candidate with the experience necessary to do that.
Cruz supporters are pleased to drop this bomb on the forum.
It isn't an accurate display on Trump. As such it's actually a smear on Cruz when his supporters tout it as a reason to support Cruz. What they should be doing is pointing out the obvious flaws in this ranking. And RANK is the proper word here....
