Cruz worked in the White House with Bush. Ditto his wife.

Why did Ted Cruz never mention this? What about Jeb?

It’s because Cruz is a Trojan Horse for the Establishment. He worked in the Bush White House along with his wife.

This explains a lot.

see you can’t even keep a straight cognitive thought. Your as twisted as Trump is, hey you could put out a Trump Pretzel, but he would want 75%.

Hey, all I'm doing is taking your theory to it's logical conclusion. LOL Guess you weren't so logical after all, eh?

Cruz would be lucky to get 5 minutes speaking time at the convention after 5:00 am Eastern...

I forgot all about little refrito. You are right.

Trump underlings took advantage of labor laws which Trump has said he is against. As far a ties being made in China he should be asked about that I think he was but I do not recall the answer he gave.

Anyway I want the wall built, I'd vote for Sanders if I thought he would build a real security wall. I only trust Trump to do it.

Just don’t go into business with Trump on that Trump pretzel, he will bankrupt you as he did others and leave you with all the liabilities.

Re:”B.S. they hate him. Let’s talk about Cruz.

Ted Cruz = Trojan Horse

How come Ted’s never mentioned working with W. Bush?

How come Jeb’s never mentioned it?

Ted’s wife worked at the Bush White House.

Thanks for the link.

Cruz’s core value, based upon this and other actions, seems to be political expedience. I would not be surprised if his role as ‘outsider’ is fully acceptable to the eGOP. I see this role as somewhat akin to McCain’s role as a ‘maverick’.

Re:”It’s called scrambling and clawing their way onto the ship before it sets sail and they are left behind, perhaps forever.

The elemental instinct of self-preservation might be kicking in for some of the GOPe.”

This is quite possible. Christie is a shrewd pol

Actuallt Cruz shilled for TPA. Then upon realizing how unpopular this stance was Cruz voted against TPA. Then, here’s the really good part, Cruz teamed up with Ryan to attache TAP as an amendment to a bill regarding pensions, a bill guaranteed to pass. Cruz voted for this bill.

Public Law 114–26 - 114th Congress
An Act To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to allow Federal law enforcement officers, firefighters, and air traffic controllers to make penalty-free withdrawals
from governmental plans after age 50, and for other purposes

Bill as passed:

What a little sneak !

Explains what? He's a Texas Republican working for a Texas born Republican president.

Trump is taking hints from Guiliani right now and has endorsements from Christie and Jimmy Carter.

THAT explains even more.

I'm not the one with the twisted logic. You started the pretzel. I just finished it for you.

"I have a hunch they always were for him, this has all been a charade by them to get elected just who they wanted to begin with. We will never get ahead of their deceitful thinking, as they know what we think and don't care, but at the same time have devised a plan to counter our thoughts. Trump was their 1st choice to begin with, they can make deals."

Sorry, that pretzel is all yours. Trump was their first choice? Riiiiight.

No, the really good part is... Cruz voted against TPA, just like I said.... but unlike the bull$hit and lies being spewed and spread here to the contrary.

When a football team is winless four years in a row, the entire coaching stuff is fired. (probably sooner than four years.) You don't fire one and keep another (very seldom.) The TEAM of COACHES didn't win. It's that way in business. A team working on a project---if the project fails you don't replace one or two, you appoint a new team.

EVERY Repub in Senate/House needs to be voted out.

I was leader of a project once and one person did not cooperate and do what he was supposed to, causing the entire project to fail to meet its objectives.

In my performance review my boss listed that project as a failure on my list of my objectives for that year.

I protested, and then he told me, "Well, maybe somebody ELSE COULD have made it happen." Maybe somebody else would have had a different set of skills and resolved the problem that caused the project to fail. My boss was exactly right.

Same with Cruz, Rubio and all the Senate. They have FAILED. There aren't good guys and bad guys, just one big team failure. They all must go and maybe we can put together the right people next time who WILL succeed.
