Ted’s crapped his bed - and now is getting covered with the stick of it. He’s done that of his own volition. He’s committing political suicide.

Someone once told me, “If someone hands you their head on a platter, why not take it?”

That is what Cruz has done. Very stupid to hand someone like Trump your head on a platter. He’s going to use it. Watch him dominate the new cycle this week with all the ammunition Ted gave him. For being so brilliant Ted sure pulls some bonehead moves.

I never dreamed Ted would have burned “principled” to ashes on the altar of winning like he has. Amazing Ted’s book title is “A Time for Truth”. I bought it.

I couldn’t believe Ted forgot Trump was the only one to mention the names of two conservative judges he’d consider appointing at the beginning of the debate. Instead the “brilliant debater” with “a photographic recall of the spoken word” LIED and said “Trump will appoint liberal judges.”

Wow. What a stupid tactical mistake. It shows canned soundbites overruled smart tactical maneuvering - Ted didn’t recognize the battle field changed with Trump’s mentioning the two conservative judges he’d appoint. He ran with the canned soundbite anyway. Very bad mistake, very bad tactical judgment. That was stunning. Ted’s just another status quo puppet politician. I’ll too vote for him as the nominee but it will be a default “cream of the crap vote for me”.

Cruz knew what Trump had said in the debate, but he was pointing out that Trump cannot be trusted. Trump has even said that his sister would make a fine SCOTUS justice.

Trump's sister is a liberal monster who defends PBA.

While you are so busy scoffing at Cruz, pay attention to Trump's horrible record. He is an arch-populist, meaning he is a panderer, meaning he is unscrupulous, meaning he is a liar at his very core.
