Forced? How so? Were they also forced not to have insurance coverage?
Cruz stepped in it. He tried to out-Trump Trump and failed. Just admit it and move on. Point goes to Trump.
“So if all this is true, then why did Cruz pal up with Trump last summer, say nothing for months, and allow Trump to take a monster lead in the race?
So either Trump isn’t Satan, or Cruz has terrible judgement.”
This question can easily be turned the opposite way — why has Trump buddied up with Cruz for the past couple years and done nothing but praise Cruz until a just few weeks ago? Either Cruz is not a “nasty person” (like Trump now says), or Trump has horrible judgment.
Can’t give him the point. It had nothing to do with the context put out there. Zero. It was a odd direction to go to say the least.
Those were the only details she shared with me. Regardless, she obviously feels let down and is taking it out on Cruz. It likely comes down to while Cruz was right on principal (with the Repubs voting it down), he comes out wrong on perception. Whattya' gonna do?
I’ll take substance over style any day.
I suppose it’s fitting since his voters are wrestling fans.
Cruz has been running against Trump the whole time. The team idea only existed in the minds of some freepers. He simply focused on promoting conservative ideas while assuming Trump would collapse his own campaign. That didn’t happen so now Cruz has to take out Trump himself.
“This question can easily be turned the opposite way”
This is the third time I’ve asked for an answer to this, only to get a dodge.
What exactly is the problem with answering what I asked?
Being warm to Cruz as a person, and then not is FAR different than Cruz’s line that Trump is a fake...blah blah blah, when he was OK with being allies with him, and letting him run crazy over the other candidates, and becoming the prohibitive polling leader in the primaries.
Are you referring to the flip-floper Cruz?
What universe are you writing from? Trump has been dredging the very bottom of the barrel in his vicious attacks on Cruz over the weekend.
I’m referring to anyone who stands on principle rather than doing something to gain favor. It is not the job of the Federal government to reward bad choices.
That is AWESOME!
“Cruz has been running against Trump the whole time.”
Could have fooled everyone else.
Was he also running against:
Walker
Carson
Carly
Bush
Perry
Because last time anyone actually looked, it was Trump that took these people on and knocked them flat. It sure as hell wasn’t Cruz, whom sat off on the side and let Trump do the running.
Cruz wasn’t running against Trump, he was running in the wake Trump created from him doing the hard work.
“He simply focused on promoting conservative ideas “
That’s adorable. If it wasn’t for Trump clearing these others out, he would still be at 5%.
I'm not disagreeing with you on that. It would appear some Republicans affected by the storm aren't happy with what the party did to them. Then to have Cruz spew New York values probably didn't go over either.
