Cruz won’t have to worry about that. His political career is over.

Ted is just like The Donald. Got a loan from the epitome of the Democrat Establishment GoldmanSachs with no collateral. Except for the favors they knew he would return someday.

“Everyone hates Cruz” is media propaganda and pap. Don’t fall for it. Remember how we were told Obama was a great public speaker, a Constitutional scholar, the “smartest man in the room?”

Cruz knows more about the Constitution and the law than any candidate. He knows clearly what the President can do.

If he’s elected, and the Congress is in Republican hands, expect historical things to happen.

Of course that’s a lie promulgated by hateful Establishment types now only used by Trump as convenient allies. Many conservatives in the House have endorsed Cruz. The fact that the RINOS in the Senate hate him is only reason more for me to support him!😀

Congress does not like to look stupid so they will go along with him so they won’t get blamed for a shutdown.. He can pull an Obama and it’s my way or the Highway.. Also he has already said if congress sends him a bill laden with pork he will veto!!!

All Bush cared about was everybody liking him. Did they make it easy on him?

Congress won’t be smooth sailing for either President Trump or President Cruz

BECAUSE

Congress actually despises both Trump and Cruz.

What's he going to do when Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell tell him to go to hell?

Replace them with H-1B visa holders.

Ronald Reagan went over the heads of Congress and stated his case to the American people. You want to scare Congress, just start having their constituents bombard them with a ton of phone calls and e-mails.

Problem is that Trump wants:

Partial Birth Abortion
Wealth Tax
Eminent Domain
Amesty
Crony Capitalist Deal with the establishment
Mitch McConnell as Majority Leader
TARP

These are all items he’s expressed support for.

The establishment hated Reagan too. A President has the power of the bully pulpit. Cruz will be in the top seat, and when he says he wants to do what he campaigned and won on, RINOs won’t have a case to make against him with the public.

Do you want the return of G.W. Bush who never met a bill he didn’t sign? Gridlock isn’t a bad thing. And we still get Cruz to appoint court justices, deregulate the alphabet agencies, control military policy, give everyone waivers to Obamacare, enforce existing law on the border, undo all Obama’s EOs, etc.

It’s a silly concern given how much power the presidency itself has. How many new bills do we need to pass anyway? Ultimately any fight will come down to public opinion. It’s hard to go against it. Cruz will have the power to sway opinion to his side to some extent, much moreso than random Senators and congressmen.

"How exactly will Cruz get anything done when everyone in Congress hates him?"

He will follow the Constitution and use the bully pulpit.

Have things gotten any better since Reagan left office in 1989? We’ve had it with Bush, Clinton, Bush, Obama. Trying the same old thing hasn’t worked for 27 years. A career politician lies his way into office and then doesn’t keep any of the promises. It’s business as usual. The border is still open and people keep flowing across.

Time to try something different. I’m voting for Trump.
