Like I said, you're a moron. Cruz is a lawyer. Lawyers work in court rooms. Courts rooms are run by the government. In your little Trump worshiping world anybody that works around or for the government is a 'career politician'. I guess a fighter pilot for the Navy is also a career politician because he works for the government.

Personal attacks don't change the facts. Cruz was and is not a government employee like a fighter pilot or a bureaucrat. He served as a political appointee in the federal and state governments for 7 years and elective office for 2 years. In addition he was a government law law clerk for two years and spent a year working on a political campaign.

In the 20 years since graduating law school, Cruz has spent a total of 6 years in private practice. During part of that time he formed and then abandoned a bid to run for Texas AG. He is now running for President after just two years in the Senate.

Cruz is a creature of politics and government. He essentially eschewed the private sector to follow his political ambitions. He has had limited executive experience and no real accomplishments in the private sector--certainly not compared to Trump.

Cruz is a solid conservative. A constitutionalist. An unapologetic Christian. A brilliant man that doesn't remind everybody of it every time he gets in front of a microphone.Ted Cruz’s 10 Biggest Flip Flops

What are you gonna do when Trump can't make the Mexicans build and pay for a border fence? What are you gonna do when Trump doesn't do anything about immigration? What are you going to do when Trump increases federal spending and taxes? What are you going to do when Trump resigns after two years because he gets bored with trying to endlessly work with real career politicians and the enormous bureaucracy that he can't simply pay off with his money?

LOL. The same thing we are doing now--nothing. Congress is full of alleged conservatives who made promises they did not keep. I would rather give an outsider a shot at doing something than trust the old, tired bromides of the political class. On immigration, Trump can do many things without any approval from Congress. He can just start enforcing the existing laws. If Trump gets into the WH, that is a major accomplishment in and of itself. Cruz can't be elected because he has been Palinized. Most of the public see him as a grandstanding gadfly who is a pariah in his own party. No accomplishments, just green eggs and ham.

Trump, who says he can't be bought, has spent a lifetime buying people, which doesn't make him any better. Go ahead and waste your vote on this loud mouth, self promoting yankee.

My family and I will be voting for Trump in the upcoming SC primary. We have had enough of the political class that has been bought and paid for by the corporate elites and special interests. The GOPe will try to defeat Trump by eventually coalescing around Cruz who is still part of club. Trump is a true outsider who can't be bought or manipulated.

So, career military people aren't politicians................yeah, right.............

You're just engaging in semantics in a weak attempt to bolster your position.
