Cruz is a Cuban Canadian Crony.
He needs to go back home.

I live in Washington DC. It is just one large conspiracy to pick the taxpayers pocket with everyone here getting a piece of the action - some large, some small as ambitions and talents vary.

It is just a bit much for all those folks on the game to express moral opprobrium against Trump, who seems to be the one person pointing out just exactly how the American taxpayer is getting screwed by all of this corruption and the associated tyranny erected to keep the game going.

Its worse than that. It's a ponzi scheme. To keep the game going and keep paying off everyone who needs to be paid off you need to keep finding new marks. Well they have run through all the taxpayers and then some. They are desparate. We are in the end game and it is not pretty.

F.U. Ted: he’s President and you’re not, so Trump can say whatever he wants to say ... your job is to support your party’s President ...

I would bet 10-1 he knocked the “moderate” Biden out of the race as an opponent.

And now the Democratic party is forked on the horns of dilemma. Do they go with an old liberal who turns out to be a crook that the RINOs and Wall St could get along with or do they go with that other fake injun harridan.

BTW, the real problem Biden has is not the corruption or abuse of power - it's just what goes around. It's that he has turned that malingering wastrel druggie son of his into a wealthier man than most of us could aspire to through hard work and dedication to the task. It's sick and it's clear his son is a wreck because his father never took care of him - you know, tough love. Getting bounced from the Navy for drugs as the son of a Senator and VP. What a little turd. Instead of discharge it sounds like he needed to be busted to the ranks and given another kind of choice - brig or time as a deck hand chipping paint on an old oiler or something - which is how the Navy used to do these things.

A couple of years of hard work never hurt anyone.

I went to war with Ted in the primaries and I would still put him on my top ten list of best candidates, but this is so wimpy. This is wartime and he understands this but chooses to be passive. I thought President Trump would govern as a New York moderate. Man was I wrong. Sorry to all.

It’s a remarkable act of cowardice.

Cowardice or servitude? Who owns Ted?

Cruz was uniquely positioned to mount a sorely-needed defense of the carefully-chosen language of the presidential eligibility clause of the U.S. Constitution by admitting that Canadian-born, Cuban-fathered he was ineligible to run for or hold the office of POTUS. Instead, because of Cruz’s insatiable political ambition, we are left in Constitutional poverty with the weakest of all possible default definitions: NBC=Anyone other than a person born overseas to two non-citizen parents.

No.

That is not politics.
Here is a brand new idea for you. That was crime.
Physical assault isn’t politics, its crime.
And Ted Cruz came out and declared that voters supporting a primary candidate not to a mob’s liking earns thown rocks an beatings.

both of which characterize Trump as soliciting the Ukrainian government's assistance in investigating unsubstantiated allegations against the business activities of former Vice President Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden.

UNSUBSTANTIATED???? Creepy Joe openly admitted to blackmail and extortion of foreign officials using US taxpayer money!! To the gleeful laughter of his audience!!!

Good point. Ted was wrong. And he has no excuse as he’s aware of the law. I remember that incident now.

What really turned people against Ted Cruz is his bizarre out of bounds behavior at the 2016 GOP convention.

Not me.
I don’t give much of a crap about the convention thing.
At all.
That one is only politics.

So, anyone who I debate with is going to be forced to defend Ted on the riot at the rally, because that is what nauseated me. They can’t argue that Ted has made things right politically with me because I have never been incensed about that part.

After my active duty in the Navy was over in 1964, we moved to Fairfax county and lived and worked in the DC area for 6 years.

The bs you posted was becoming apparent then, and it got worse every year.

When we escaped and moved to N. California, we could say that we were conservative republicans without reprisal.

That changed after Clinton was impeached. Now, we have a handful of conservative friends, and none of us put stickers on our vehicles for Republicans nor on our yards.

Basically every local government to the state is run by tax and spend democrats.

We just got our property tax bills for the upcoming tax year.

In spite of having the protection of prop 13, the liberals have added more taxes for the children and the environment to the point that our actual property taxes are only 1/3 of the total bill.

Every city has a large population of druggies and alcoholics, now labeled as homeless.

Every city is now a sanctuary city, and the illegals are costing a fortune to maintain them and to police them.

Moonbeam, Finestein, Boxer, Pelosi and other left wing congressits work hand in hand with local pols to $crew us tax wise 24/7.

President Trump is our last and only hope.

unsubstantiated allegations against the business activities of former Vice President Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden.

The mockingbird media memo is to keep repeating the word "unsubstantiated" even tho' Quid Pro Jo is on video bragging about doing so.

This is such a CIA op from beginning to end. It needs to be defunded, disbanded, and any of the black op sources of revenue (drug running, child trafficking, etc.) that they are engaged in investigated and the players prosecuted.

"I would have wished the president have not gone down that road," Cruz said.

WHY??? Because you are a Coward!! You and 99% of politicians out there are afraid rooting out corruption will upset the Deep State Establishment Scum! President Trump is obligated by treaty with the Ukraine to expose susspected wrongdoings!!
