Spare me the psychoanalysis. You’re not particularly good at it.
If you want to drink the koolaid for Ted Cruz regardless of what he does, that’s your prerogative. I’m not going to. He’s a politician. He stands or falls on his own merit. We got a real good taste of where his priorities lie this week. It’s a rare bill that contains so much that’s bad as the TPP does. Obamacare is the only other bill/law that I can think of in recent history that was worse. And like obamacare, we have to pass it in order to see what’s in it. And where was the Ted Cruz on all this? Flacking for it and supporting it with all the rest of the globalists.
All sorts of folks are going to deny the evidence of their own eyes. That’s fine. They’ll also jump up and down and squeal as True Believers usually do when confronted with what they view as heresy against their True Candidate. That’s also fine.
This reminds me of the 2004 to 2006 era here on FR where it was quite the rage to refer to Karl Rove as a “magnificent bastard” despite ample evidence that the qualifier “magnificent” was not applicable.
I don't necessarily disagree with you on the trade bill, but you people are so knee jerk, judgmental, impatient that I assume you must approach most of life this way. God help your families.
FR used to be thoughtful and now it is full of bitter people.
