I explained Cruz’s vote to you, and others, several times.

Cruz first tried to amend it to give it some actual substance to the agreement, but was rebuffed by McConnell. He then voted against it (cloture), but the agreement carried overwhelmingly.

He then voted for the agreement, in order to enforce it against Obama. He knew Obama would renege on the agreement, and when Obama did renege, Cruz sought to enforce it. Obama was, and is, in violation of the agreement and federal law.

Cruz was given lemons by the GOP-e, and made lemonade. Now, he has Obama dead to rights. You can’t blame Ted Cruz if McConnell and the GOP-e refuse to enforce the law.

“He then voted for the agreement, in order to enforce it against Obama. He knew Obama would renege on the agreement, and when Obama did renege, Cruz sought to enforce it. Obama was, and is, in violation of the agreement and federal law.”

“He then voted for the agreement, in order to enforce it against Obama.”

Obama pushed for the bill; he helped guide it through passage. Obama worked with his good buddy Corker to get it done. You really believe that Obama would support a bill that could be used against him?

“...in order to enforce it against Obama:’

Cruz has a good track record of bending the Republican Senate to his will?

“Cruz was given lemons by the GOP-e, and made lemonade.”

Obama and Iran got EVERYTHING they wanted, plus the lemonade.

“Now, he has Obama dead to rights.”

Are you serious?

“You can’t blame Ted Cruz if McConnell and the GOP-e refuse to enforce the law.”

True, but with McConnell’s track record, and Obama’s track record, it would take an idiot to think he could single-handedly force them to conform to his will.

Cruz is not an idiot, which is why I can’t trust him. What you just repeated are just suggestions for the suggestible.
