en. Ted Cruz sounds ready to run for president again – in 2024.

Speaking to The Monitor after a breakfast session with reporters, the Texas Republican didn’t hesitate when asked if he would take another crack at the White House.

“Look, I hope to run again,” said Senator Cruz, who was the runner-up last time to Donald Trump for the Republican presidential nomination. “We came very, very close in 2016. And it’s the most fun I’ve ever had in my life.”

Sheesh. We’re not even through the first term and Cruz is already measuring for new drapes.

Not a chance.
Pull your head out of the clouds and get a reality check.

Sorry Ted. The next time you run, it will be without my support.

And I was one of your biggest supporters.

Not exactly. More of a DISTANT second with only about 1/3 of the total delegates needed. Your opponent got about 2/3 MORE than you. That is hardly 'very, very close'.

Cruz allying with AOC to make birth control pills OTC so minors can buy them without parental permission or knowledge or even medical supervision knocked him off my list. ANd I voted for him in the primaries. For a smart guy his underlying philosophy isn’t deep.

Pence will do in 2024. There will never be another Trump.

I have not forgotten when Cruz implied Trump threatened his family during the 2016 primary. That remark was the switch that moved me over to Trump. I have been wary of Cruz since.

“And I was one of your biggest supporters.”

As a proud Trump supporter from the moment he descended the escalator, I couldn’t believe the vehemence of many Cruz supporters in opposing Trump for months on end. There was a cult-like fervor with many of them, and a positively nutty side to a few (Glenn Beck, call your office). I knew something cult-like was happening when some of my normally “law and order” friends were even making excuses for Cruz when he somehow tried to blame Trump supporters for getting beat up by leftists at the Chicago rally. It was that statement that revealed that Cruz is a fraudulent conservative — and it was the Cruzites’ continued support for him, after that, that showed they had consumed some truly mind-distorting Kool Aid. all in all, the Cruz campaign was a weird phenomenon, the way so many people were hypnotized, and I don’t look forward to a repeat of the whole ugly episode.

I liked a lot about Cruz but he wasn’t eligible then and obviously he still
Isn’t now. Respect for government begins at the top

What about him making excuses for the leftists rioting against Trump’s Chicago rally? Didn’t that show you that he’s a dangerous self-promoting fraud?
