Trump has gotten nothing done in the political world. Nothing. What he has gotten done in the business realm is to his credit, but that is not how government operates. In the past, his dealings with political figures has been in the form of using financial contributions to candidates that would benefit his ventures - the very thing that drives so many here crazy.

Cruz did NOT give us the raging marxist currently occupying the White House. That was the result of a dying republic and...financial investment. Cruz not being able to cobble together any kind of support testifies to just how broken our government is (and maybe how craven some of the recently elected officials are). His speaking out against the current GOP leadership publicly did accomplish nothing, except to dramatize he was one who was willing to resist the McConnell/Boehner/GOPe stranglehold on the Republican Party.

Seems you’re blaming the only one willing to stand up to the GOPe for the GOPe’s failures. Too many around here doing that. We need MORE Ted Cruz’s in congress. We don’t need to be trashing them.

What??? That's nonsense...Do you watch any of Trump's rallys???

Trump tells us and them they are ignorant, stupid, corrupt and a whole litany of things...He makes Cruz look like Mary Poppins when it comes to tearing into the status quo...

Trump employs 11,000 people. That’s a heck of a lot of Thanksgiving turkeys on the table.

OTOH Cruz has no accomplishments to speak of in his years in DC. No coalitions built, no significant legislative victories. Nothing. Beltway theater is not an accomplishment. Sorry.
