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.

HIs followers Butt hurt ran deep, they buried it long enough to reap from Trump. They were waiting for his signal guess He gave it.
No! DeSantis will be president in January 2025.
Will wait and see, much happens between 2024 and now.
If the ‘Rats were crazy in 2008, double crazy now, they’ll be triple crazy in 2024. If perchance Cruz gets nominated, he most certainly has my wholehearted vote.
I supported Cruz in the 2016 primaries, but he almost destroyed his brand with his awful campaign. I’m glad he was able to repair his brand, but I hope he doesn’t try again.
The next democratic president will make Bill Clinton look like a conservative republican. I cant believe how far gone the party has gone. Joe Biden is making big mistakes by going left thank goodness.
Yeah, FReepers, Beto would have represented Texas so much better. It’s too bad Ted beat him by a hair.
Spit.
Fact is, Senator Ted has sponsored & supported some pretty good legislation.
Actually looking up a Senator’s voting record is hard.
Knee jerk ad hominem attacks are so much easier.
CORRECT
Forget it, Ted. You’re not eligible.
I’ll NEVER forget or forgive his refusal to endorse Trump during the GOP convention.
The son of a Cuban born in Canada is NOT a Natural Born Citizen of the United States of American. And Cruz claims to be a constitutionalist? Well there is a reason his nick name is Lying Ted.
his eligibility will be an issue, and cause a crisis. There are other fully born, naturalized citizens who could get past this hurdle.
“there is a reason his nick name is Lying Ted.”
Trump was clear in his rallies that Cruz isn’t “LyinG Ted”, it’s definitely “Lyin’ Ted”. ;-) He even spelled it out, with the apostrophe — LOL!
We Came Very, Very Close in 2016
NO, he didn’t come close ...
so lying ted is at it again! NOT a good start for a future campaign, because it’s an indication that ted is just another lying piece of shit politician that will say and do anything to get elected and not mean one bit of it ... a statement like that should automatically disqualify ted from running for anything in the future ....
this is VERY disappointing behavior because it indicates that ted learned nothing from 2016 and that what he did in 2016 is actually his true self ...
I cant see the US surviving the next democrat president
Their economics are completely destructive. Obama doubled our debt from ten trillion to 20 trillion. He took over student loans putting every college kid into tens and hundreds of thousands of dollars destroying marriage and family eliminating children He brought in the gay mafia into our culture destroying childrens normal sex development- prepubescent people cannot handle the idea of sex much less abnormal sex. And he destroyed the finance of health care
No more of these freaks
NO CUBANADIANS FOR PRESIDENT
I only trust Ted to put his own ambition ahead of the Constitution.
Looks like cRuz has ILLarys delusional disease.
There is just something about him that I find very repellent.
