I congratulate President-elect Trump on an amazing victory for the American worker. This affirms what we have long known, that Americans have resoundingly rejected the Obama-Clinton agenda of bigger government, intrusive regulation, executive overreach, and lawlessness that is killing innovation and jobs, squandering opportunity for working men and women, marginalizing our freedoms, and compromising our security.
This election astonished the pundits. This was a change election. Americans voted for Republicans because of a promise to go to Washington to reverse our current course, and end the Washington cartel -- a promise to drain the swamp. Now is the time to follow through on those words with action. We cannot wait even one day to begin implementing a conservative agenda that fulfills those commitments.
I look forward to working with the new administration to confirm conservative justices from the strong list of 21 jurists that was promised. I look forward to working with the new administration to repeal Obamacare, to once and for all secure the border and enforce our immigration laws, and to take action that will rebuild our military and stop radical Islamic terrorists from infiltrating our homeland.
I am eager to help lead the fight in the Senate to pass the conservative agenda that President-elect Trump promised to the American people.
Charting a course to recovery will not be easy, it will take resolve and commitment to undo the havoc wreaked on our country the last eight years. But the future of America is worth it. Defending freedom and preserving the Constitution is worth it.
Not to lecture other Freepers,, but I will do it anyways. Ted Cruz is not the enemy anymore, he could be one of Trump’s biggest allies in the Senate. He’s one of the good guys now. Let’s be gracious.
What was Donald’s reason?
Well said. Agree 100%.
Cruz never mentioned that unchecked illegal immigration would destroy our sovereignty and our country. I know this as a former MAJOR Cruz supporter. Not until Trump entered the race was it stated that a country without borders isn’t a country at all.
Well, of course, that it would benefit America, with the ways listed and detailed (captain obvious). Cruz is more like, oh look how supremely “conservative” this set of ideas is, in and of itself. That’s like talking about “holiness” with no view to its benefits, something that the bible urges the opposite of.
That’s kind of the problem with a view that exalts “conservatism” as if it were a stand alone thing without concrete consequences to be considered.
Charting winners is in no way a representation of faith in our Creator.
You hit the nail on the head.
It’s easy to make things be about “Christian culture” rather than about Jesus, who when willingly beheld is always wowing us with His wisdom and mercy and power. And agreed, that leads to an earthly view, charting party winners, and the like.
I am a Trumpster from the beginning. Proud to say GO TED, and Thank You to the Cruz-folks! We owe you all bigtime.
