but the establishment refused to follow Cruz’s lead when he voted to stop it?
Cruz has to hone up on his leadership skills. I haven’t found many who follow him. He needs to learn to be persuasive. Heck President Reagan was able to convince Democrats to vote his way. Senator Cruz needs to at least get the Republicans on his side. I think the leadership thinks that perhaps Cruz is too big for his britches. Just a thought. Overtime, Cruz will learn more skills. It is all about learning the ins and outs of the Senate.
It won’t matter how many senators follow him.
Just watch how many regular Americans do though. The senators will all crumble when this happens.
Get the picture?
