This is nothing but Ted’s plan for rehab.
Ted is a big boy. He knew, or should have known what the stakes were last year.
As a party you hold a convention to pick up the big Mo, and hope it will carry you over the finish line.
Once Trump obtained the delegates, it was over for Ted. It was time for him to suck it up and get ready to endorse.
He could have helped to create big momentum going into the Convention by tossing his support behind Trump.
He failed this. Instead he had his people try to change the rules to gain support even at that late date.
Once that was done he could have tossed his support behind Trump. Instead he refused.
He led up to the Convention by refusing to help, spent the convention prelims by refusing to help. He then refused to endorse.
We held a convention, and the runner up candidate poured sour grapes on all of it. The big momentum we could have gained, was diminished by Ted Cruz.
This is the middle of July. On September 23rd, over two months later, he finally broke down and said he’d vote for Trump. He actually made a pretty good endorsement. I didn’t even know it until several days ago. I thought he had only said he’d vote for Trump. He went farther than that, and I never knew it. Over two months after the Convention, the number of people who still cared were minuscule.
So Ted endorsed and put up a statement on FaceBook to herald it. Two months after the convention, nobody but nobody following Ted, who actually went to his FaceBook page to read what was up with him. He was two month old news at that point, and headed nowhere.
Ted went to an event that day. That was the last event he participated in until November 5th. On that day he went to three Trump events. At the first, he didn’t even say the name Trump.
With the stakes what they were, with the nation on the line, with Hillary Clinton licking her chops to finish the destruction of this nation that Obama had nearly completed, Ted still couldn’t put his whole heart and soul into it.
Ted’s wounded ego was what was most important to him. Screw the nation, he and his wife had been slighted, and Ted was going to play into his supporters wet-dreams just a few more times.
This was the guy’s dedication to our nation last year.
Capped off with revealing the worst judgement ever, by blaming Trump for the violence outside his events, Ted destroyed himself. I’ll never trust him on the SCOTUS now.
He didn’t know it wasn’t Trump’s fault? This is a guy I want to judge complex issues?
So yes, perhaps I’m carrying a grudge a long time.
Trump won by a razor thin margin. A few states here and there, we don’t have a Trump right now.
That’s what Cruz was toying with.
Now he latches on to what Trump does to sound like he’s just like Trump. Nope. Ted is nothing like Trump.
I’ll never support him, or allow him to outrun his sell-out of the nation last year.
Patriots don’t do what Ted did last year.
They fight tooth and nail to save the nation.
Ted didn’t. I’m not forgetting.
I’m with you. I don’t even know if I’ll be able to vote for the snake again when he’s up for election again.
Our President needs Senator Cruz’s support. He needs our support.
Trashing the only Senator who is taking a stand with him is hurting Trump - not helping him.
#MAGA
I agree that was a mindless judgment, no doubt a retaliation for the insults Trump threw at Cruz. Even today, many of the so-called "moderates" in our nation, some of whom voted against Hillary, are not aware that Hillary's goon squads were worse than Nixon's. At least Nixon's minions did not injure anybody.
I confess that I am a Hillary Hater. But I am glad that Cruz defended and voted for Sessions in committee.
