Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) isnt taking another presidential run off the table at least for 2024.
The Republican lawmaker who dropped his 2016 presidential bid after trying to win over voters against now-President Donald Trump in the Republican primary is open to a future presidential run.
In hopes of becoming the Republican nominee in 2016, Cruz fell short, as his support among voters declined in comparison to those backing then-front-runner Trump. A Gallup poll conducted in late April of 2016 shows Cruz at a 45% unfavorability rating among Republican voters, jumping from an unfavorability rating in the teens at the beginning of the year.
In an interview with The Christian Science Monitor published on Thursday, Cruz, however, is sharing how hed be open to taking another shot at it.
Look, I hope to run again, Cruz said, adding, We came very, very close in 2016. And its the most fun Ive ever had in my life.

Pence.
I'm pretty sure I was fishing for for an electable conservative name for 2024. We got McCain in 2008 and Mitt in 2012. Being pretty sure we can find one is kinda like fishing. Sometimes you get skunked.
Why then was Ted Cruz meeting with Hillary Clinton during the 2016 elections? I dont recall the date but it was shortly before the Republican Party chose Trump that Cruz was filmed walking up the stairs and onto Hillary Clintons airplane. What do you suppose they talked about? The Hag is obviously establishment deep state and maybe its just me but it seems that Cruz meeting with Hillary Clinton ought to raise serious question about his honesty and credibility. I like Ted Cruz and I hope he is the constitutional patriot that he presents himself to be. But after all, he is a lawyer and a politician, thats 2 strikes right there.
