Actually, I do not have any blind loyalty to Cruz and think he played his cards badly in the end. But he is a heck of a lot better than the rinos when it comes to legislations.

My loyalty is to the constitution. Sorry, but you need to see the bigger picture. The base of this party has never in its history blindly followed a leader like the dems do. If you do not follow through with promises they walk...."read my lips"....a fabulous history lesson of who the republican base actually is. If the base were easily led they would be dems with the constant propaganda we are deluged with daily. Why do you think there are people in the dem power structure that actually think republicans need killing? We are not easily controlled lemmings, we stick out as sore thumbs to them because we bucked the programming. You either understand your base and cater to it or you fall apart.

Yes, since republicans control the House, Senate and the Presidency Trump will get blamed for the rinos betrayal of him with these bills that do not let him keep his campaign promises in a big way. Trump is either going to have to campaign openly against the rinos betraying the party and Trump or he will be tagged with the betrayal.

Riding the Trump high was great.... but there comes a time for reality or drowning and the water is rising fast. If Trump does not succeed then the US is destroyed. It matters that he get it right and that is why your base is complaining and getting mad. You either hear or blindly ignore and call them names, talk down to them or demand they be lemmings, pissing them off even more.
