RE: So Ted going to the border and handing out Teddy Bears to illegal alien children a few years back makes you believe he has changed?

Handing out teddy bears is simply that — showing compassion for the kids. It does not say that He is going to allow them to come in as legal migrants.

Obama was the one who accepted them, not Cruz.

RE: As late as 2016 he didn’t give a rat’s ass if Hillary Clinton became president or not.

Why would you say that? He ran for President didn’t he? You mean he was going to ran for President in order for Hillary to win? You seem to have some special insight into his mindset.

RE: He wasn’t and still isn’t

OK, tell me, where does Ted Cruz stand today on:

Defense
Abortion
Gay Marriage
Immigration
Terrorism
Taxes
The Budget
Healthcare
Energy
Education
Justices in the Courts

Let’s start with those first and then you tell me in which issue he is not conservative.

Yep, when not able to reply reasonably, you call people names. You don’t want to waste your time? Then don’t bother responding.

Ted Cruz had a 96% rating from the American Conservative Union in 2017 and a LIFETIME rating of 99%.

See here: http://acuratings.conservative.org/acu-federal-legislative-ratings/?year1=2017&chamber=11&state1=0&sortable=1

I guess to you, that isn’t conservative enough.

Club for Growth says its congressional scorecard “rewards free-market champions and exposes big-government, tax-and-spend politicians.” Cruz scored 92 percent in 2014 and 100 percent in 2013 on the Club for Growth scorecard, ranking eighth in 2014 and first in 2013 among senators. By comparison, Paul scored 95 percent and 97 percent, respectively, in the last two years — ranking fifth in 2014 and third in 2013.

See here:

Maybe you have your own ratings as opposed to the ACU or Club for Growth. I’d like to see what they are.

Apparently you’ve never heard of Reagans 11th commandment. You definitely need to pull your head out...

It says — Thou shalt not speak ill of any fellow Republican.

I am NOT a registered Republican. And BTW, the one who started the whole speak ill thing is you.

A thread that shows Cruz celebrating Trump’s accomplishments degenerated into YOU speaking ill of Cruz instead of complimenting him for praising Trump.

Who is breaking the commandment?

Sorry, I meant to address DoughtyOne, not you. I apologize for my mistake.

It’s right there in front of you.

Less than 24 months ago Ted spent less than two hours from the end of the primary until the election trying to prevent Hillary Clinton from being elected.

He didn’t see her as a big enough threat to his beliefs, to oppose her with all his might.

If you two can’t grasp the significance of that, you’re not capable of grasping the most elemental of political dynamics.
