Well Tex, before you go all six-shooter regarding Christie’s endorsement of Trump, take a look in your own backyard and ponder the questionable endorsement of Cruz by that lunatic Glenn Beck. My tagline will give you a hint of where to start, and the following post made earlier today by long time FReeper ‘Liz’ will give you some additional material to consider regarding the junior Senator from your fine State:
_________________________________________________

“Some Texans say the Cruz that ran for the Senate is not the Cruz seen on the presidential circuit. Trusting Texans spent time and money on him.....making calls on Cruz/s behalf for the votes that helped him win his Senate office.

Nowadays, these onetime Cruz supporters are airing their gripes - many are p!ssed at Cruz for not disclosing that as a Senate candidate, he was still a Canadian citizen.

It/s not helping Cruz to be called liar at his public appearances. The Carson fiasco still reverberates followed by the Bible video debacle.

Cruz/s political blunders pile up ... one disaster after another. But there are similarities: Cruz is looking more and more like the late unlamented prez candidate, ex-Texas Gov Rick Perry - two stealth candidates trusting Texans hardly knew.

At first, Cruz (like Perry) looked good....prez material, even. Then candidate Cruz (like Perry) began admitting things that trusting Texans knew nothing about.

Gov Perry shocked his constituents when he admitted in a presidential debate that he was using trusting Texans tax dollars to give illegals in-state tuition...and that they were heartless b/c they did not like this use of tax dollars. (Perry also installed the country’s first Sharia Court in Texas....active to this day).

Cruz heaped on the surprises:

<><> I didn’t know I was a Canadian citizen when I ran for the Senate until the media exposed it.

<><> I told trusting Texas voters wifey and I were liquidating family assets so I could get into the Senate.

<><> I didn’t know I was supposed to tell the FEC I borrowed over a million from my Wall Street margin accounts to fund my campaign.

<><> I told Mark Levin the borrowed funds were used for campaign ads....but I didn’t report this as required.

<><> And so on and so forth, ad infinitum, ad nauseaum.

BACKSTORY In Texas, Cruz’s Senate election fairy tale has become legendary......portraying himself to trusting Texans as a scrappy populist putting everything on the line to overcome a wealthy establishment opponent.

He was whining in the media, telling trusting Texans that he, and his faithful little wife (a $700,000 globalist lawyer employed by G/S), were forced to liquidate their entire family savings (of slightly more than $1 million) to fuel a come-from-behind win in the Republican primary.

NOW TRUSTING TEXANS LEARN Cruz did not liquidate family assets.....he got his hands on over a million dollars from his hefty margin accounts at G/S and Citibank......and did not disclose this on FEC reports (to keep it a secret from trusting Texans).

Cruz did not disclose loans on FEC reports (required by law) b/c Texans would have discovered he was not the aw-shucks rube he pretended to be. He continued the rube act in order to milk votes from trusting Texans.

At the same time, he also did not disclose he was a Canadian citizen......the Harvard-educated lawyer w/ two Ivy League degrees said he didn’t know.

When the Dallas Morning News published Cruz’s Canadian birth certificate, Cruz put trusting Texans through the charade of renouncing his Canadian citizenship.....even though Canada did not recognize dual citizenship at the time of his birth.”

Is this the only issue against Cruz? A supposed Canadian issue?
To me that “problem” has been totally overblown.

I want a candidate who talks about the real issues concerning us, the American citizens. The one-liner Trump keeps repeating again again : about building a wall while knowing Mexico will never pay for it... We have to be childish to believe he can do that. And I don’t want to spend more time listening on how other candidates are sweating on stage... We are not children !

That wall will never be constructed - unfortunately!
