“You really believe that Obama would support a bill that could be used against him?”
I do. Why wouldn’t he? When has he ever been held to account or made to follow the law. He has been in violation of the law more than once. He knows that NO ONE WILL STOP HIM OR DO ANYTHING ABOUT THAT.
Cruz knew the bill was going to pass. He had tried to amend it and do what he could. I think that Cruz knows that the GOP will do nothing about this. What Cruz is doing is trying to call the administration and fellow GOPs out on this type of thing. This is what he was talking about in his speech to the Senate the other day.
I think that you are deliberately trying to dig very deep to find some reason to justify not supporting the most conservative candidate we have out there.
The points against Cruz are very few and very weak. I’ve weighed them against the others and Cruz always comes up on top.
What I really like about Cruz is that he has always had the same conservative core beliefs. Even before he was in politics. He has been a conservative all of his adult life and hasn’t waivered. This is a man who really believes what he says today and will still believe it tomorrow. I can’t say that about Trump.
“Cruz knew the bill was going to pass.”
So, that justifies his vote? That excuse is so pathetic.
He was instrumental in getting TPA to pass; voted against it the second time after his vote was not needed. That was a vote for the Obama, one-world agenda.
No, I am not trying to “dig deep” in order to smear Cruz. The votes were out in the open, much publicized. And outrageous for someone who so openly votes against what he so loudly proclaims.
“He has been a conservative all of his adult life and hasn’t waivered. This is a man who really believes what he says today and will still believe it tomorrow.”
With H1-B visas, TPA, Corker bill — it is sad that his beliefs don’t constrain his votes.
