Cruz voted FOR TPA at the same time as he was STILL pushing huge increases in H1B visas. He said research shows that immigrants create jobs.

Then he said he did not know that program was being abused. (Although Disney was splashed all over the news.)

And he did not know McConnell lied to him about TPA
And he did not know Corker/Iran was not the best we could do.
And he did not know he was a Canadian citzen.
And he did not know he had to file official paperwork on a loan.
And he did not know he should have told Texans in his Senate race that he has a Canadian birth certificate.
And he did not know that Glen Beck is a loon.

And he did not know he did not lose his health insurance
And he did not know he really did not liquefy all his assets

And he is, according to his professor, Alan Dershowitz, off the charts brilliant.

Something does not quite add up, does it,

-- Everyone that disagrees with Trump is a liar. --

Trump's beef isn't that Cruz and others disagree with Trump, it is that Cruz is misrepresenting Trump's positions, e.g., for Obama care or single payer, against 2nd amendment.

The whole image Cruz crafted has gone down the drain.

I knew his economic understanding is weak.
I don’t trust his judgement of people.
And now his whole claim to be the uber values candidate is crushed. It makes me wonder if any of his positions are what he really believes.

To: Zenjitsuman; All

It is very telling to go back to the beginning, to the announcement for president speeches by Cruz and Trump to see what was important to them! Cruz, mostly just asked you to use your ‘imagination’.

Ted Cruz is an habitual liar and opportunist.

2nd Amendment, Guns, Right to bear arms

Cruz Mar. 23, 2015

Instead of a government that works to undermine our Second Amendment rights, that seeks to ban our ammunition..... imagine a federal government that protects the right to keep and bear arms of all law-abiding Americans.

Trump June 16 , 2015

Fully support and back up the Second Amendment.
(APPLAUSE)
Now, it’s very interesting. Today I heard it. Through stupidity, in a very, very hard core prison, interestingly named Clinton, two vicious murderers, two vicious people escaped, and nobody knows where they are. And a woman was on television this morning, and she said, “You know, Mr. Trump,” and she was telling other people, and I actually called her, and she said, “You know, Mr. Trump, I always was against guns. I didn’t want guns. And now since this happened” — it’s up in the prison area — “my husband and I are finally in agreement, because he wanted the guns. We now have a gun on every table. We’re ready to start shooting.”
I said, “Very interesting.”

So protect the Second Amendment.


Cruz March 2015
Healthcare

Five years ago today, the president signed Obamacare into law.

You know, compared to that, repealing Obamacare and abolishing the IRS ain’t all that tough.

imagine in 2017 a new president signing legislation repealing every word of Obamacare.
Imagine health care reform that keeps government out of the way between you and your doctor and that makes health insurance personal and portable and affordable.

Trump June, 2015
Healthcare

TRUMP: We have a disaster called the big lie: Obamacare. Obamacare.
Yesterday, it came out that costs are going for people up 29, 39, 49, and even 55 percent, and deductibles are through the roof. You have to be hit by a tractor, literally, a tractor, to use it, because the deductibles are so high, it’s virtually useless. It’s virtually useless. It is a disaster.

And remember the $5 billion Web site? $5 billion we spent on a Web site, and to this day it doesn’t work. A $5 billion Web site.
I have so many Web sites, I have them all over the place. I hire people, they do a Web site. It costs me $3. $5 billion Web site.

But Obamacare kicks in in 2016. Really big league. It is going to be amazingly destructive. Doctors are quitting. I have a friend who’s a doctor, and he said to me the other day, “Donald, I never saw anything like it. I have more accountants than I have nurses. It’s a disaster. My patients are beside themselves. They had a plan that was good. They have no plan now.”
We have to repeal Obamacare, and it can be — and — and it can be replaced with something much better for everybody. Let it be for everybody. But much better and much less expensive for people and for the government. And we can do it.

I’ve employed — I’ve employed tens of thousands of people over my lifetime. That means medical. That means education. That means everything.

Save Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security without cuts. Have to do it.
So, just to sum up, I would do various things very quickly. I would repeal and replace the big lie, Obamacare.

Cruz is having many what Reagan would call “youth and inexperience” moments.

In every appearance and debate Trump says “we will get rid of Obamacare, we will repeal and replace it with something so much better”

Right there Cruz’s ad lies.

Trump and his boys go shooting support the NRA. Trump has had a concealed carry permit in New York for many years.
Trump says most of the time he is CCW on him.

Right there Cruz tells another lie

Trump’s bin Laden ‘Prediction’ , Fact check: Did Donald Trump predict the 9/11 attacks?

Donald Trump is wrong about Ford and Mexico, FactCheck: Trump’s bogus boast about Ford

Trump Off-Base on Cruz Loan Rates

Trump Overstates Cruz Challenges

Trump said he got to know Putin “very well” while the two were on CBS’ “60 Minutes.” Nope. The two men were interviewed separately, in different countries thousands of miles apart.

Trump claimed his campaign is “100 percent” self-funded. Nope. At the time, more than 50 percent of his campaign’s funds had come from outside contributors.

OK lots of words... good words, Conservative words,... What actions, What deeds? What money? Anyone can tell anyone anything... only a fool believes the lies and words... Can you show me one Editorial he wrote standing on Conservative Principle? Ok easier one can you name me one charity organization that is anti abortion that he donated money to prior to 2015? Every Republican candidate running holds the same exact positions on that list... but this is his first news conference he is a Born Again Conservative freshly minted and so what, we are just going to take his word for it? In a nutshell what makes him great is his aggressive style shouting we are all sick of this mess and we aren’t going to take it anymore but his actions show extreme egomania... Riddle me this how are you gong to control that egomaniac once he gets elected? oh but he said, he said, he said,,, What has he DONE... now go do your homework...

Donald Trump and the Good Samaritan

Analysis: I'm told that billionaire Donald Trump corroborated this story (the version that applies to him, at any rate) during a 2005 episode of Celebrity Apprentice.

Good on him. While he certainly could have been telling the truth, we have reason to be skeptical, however, not least because other celebrities — Bill Gates, Perry Como, Louis Armstrong, Mrs. Nat King Cole and Leon Spinks, to name a few — have been named as the grateful celebrity in this tale before and after the Trump version went into circulation. According to folklorist Jan Harold Brunvand, there are variants dating back to the 1950s. This urban legend didn't originate with Donald Trump.
