“Running to the Right vs Is to the Right...”
That statement gets to the heart of what I find “cultic” about Cruz’s supporters: he is assigned a purity seldom achieved by a human being, his mere state of being is one of near divinity.
He has an ad out to the effect that, “When I say I will do such and such, you can count on it.”
Yeah, like helping Ryan to roll out, praising, and then voting for TPA and then not voting for it when his vote is no longer needed?
Like criticizing and trying to stop the Corker bill, and then being malleable enough vote for it when the time to vote comes up? And then goes about the country condemning his own vote (the bill)?
Not cultist...just he is the most consistent conservative I have seen in a long time. Do I think he is perfect, no.. far from it.
I have seen a multitude of politicians “become” conservative when it came time to run for President.
Trump is running to the right. Cruz has been consistently at the right.... he is not changing direction and having to run to the right.
