AFTER it was all over Cruz resigned. He knew what was going on and instead of speaking up about it, his resignation was the safe way out. He did nothing to stop it and nothing about it but quit instead of fight. Cruz is not a fighter. Everything he does is weighed and measured on the safe side.We need a fighter to captain our ship of state, not another politician protecting his own skin.

Choosing battles sometimes is important so that one may live to fight again. One battle lost does not lose the war!
He (CRUZ) knows what happened and who was involved. Am sure as a man of character he would not be quiet if he had the proper backing to nail their arses to the wall. He would know what was illegal and what was just plain ol unethical!
Trump for President
Cruz for AG or SCOTUS

Actually, from the article I just posted the link to, Cruz started the Senate Conservatives Fund to help undo the damage of the NRSCC supporting the RINO’s. As one person he could not stop the others from making their choices, but he did resign and he did start fundraising to oppose what the others had decided to do - and it burned his bridges with a lot of establishment people, which is a courageous thing. This isn’t the only time he’s taken a stand against the establishment, which is why he is hated by so many of them.

I love it that Trump remembers Mississippi! I think he is saying so many things that have needed to be said. I would vote for him in a heartbeat. What I really, really despise is “politics” - “my guy or the highway”. You can interpret Cruz’s actions however you like, but I think you’re reading him wrong. And a lot of the people bashing Trump are reading him wrong. It’s like the blood sport of “politics” brings out the very, very worst in people. I hate that.

I don’t know whether what you’ve said is true or not - if he was totally silent when the others chose to cheat for Cochran. I do see the visible actions he took and do see that the “establishment” has punished him for SOMETHING. Were you there at those private meetings, to know what Cruz did or didn’t say/do?
