Ted Cruz brought this on himself—he is not well liked in the Senate—many plam him for the Gov. Shutdown that hurt the GOP. A smart many but maybe not smart enough to be president. He would be a divider like Obama. Trump is right.

Yeah, it “hurt” the GOP so much that they won the Senate back!

[txrangerette]

Shutdown then the GOP swept this country at the national and state/local level in the election that followed.

Are you spreading the false claims of others or doing this all by your lonesome.

Just wondering...

Nice ‘RAT talking points you have there.

Yeah, taking back the Senate and increasing the number of House seats didn*t work out as we hoped, but that*s not Ted*s fault.

[RginTN]

Cruz should have made deals with Mcconnell/Reid ???

The 2nd most stupiest thing I have read here.

Trump is the ultimate polarizer.

Yeah, that shutdown really hurt the GOP - they only got the biggest House majority in recent history and regained the majority in the Senate in the next election...

If you you are going to regurgitate MSM and GOPe talking points, at least do us all the favor of spell-checking your work...

I think this is very true. Cruz can be quickly written off as a guy who will try and shut down the government every time he doesn't get his way. It's unfair, but it can stick.

The GOP voters are sick and tired of exactly that. Cruz is a solid guy and I'd vote for him in the general election, but a minority of voters will be joining me, I'm afraid.

The orthodoxy here has been that the Republicans should have engaged in more shutdowns and LONGER shutdowns. Sen. Cruz was the conservative HERO of the shutdowns. The Republicans DID take a temporary hit but in the long run far ahead in both off-year elections and held their own in 2012. How fickle you are.

[keats5]

You mean when the DEMOCRATS shut down the government, to stop Cruz from defunding Obamacare?

Don’t buy the media hype.
