You're right. Trump supporters and Cruz supporters love it

I just don't think that's enough to win the election.

Cheerleader for the GOPe, the controlled opposition in the kabuki/UNIPARTY production/program.

For telling the truth? You are a big part of the reason America is slowly dying, POS.

Another ringing endorsement. Ted Cruz has all the right enemies.

I’m sorry but that is gross. Ted is no Reagan.

Groupthink is the first step on the road to hell for any nation, and a culture of never saying anything that could offend leads to groupthink.

Trent Lott was a proto-McConnell. No doubt he’d be much harder on a conservative Republican than any liberal Democrat. It was a good day when Lott was ousted.

I wish Crus would go over to the Democratic side. We already had one Nixon, we don’t need another.

Trent always reminded me of Foghorn Leghorn...a true Southern cartoon character...he was a classic go-along, get-along GOPe type...just like McConnell

Whatever happened to the “decorum” of the Senate...the shame of it all!

Not a Cruz supporter at this time, but could be should he stand with the nomination. As for Trent Lott, the word insignificant is way too good for him. I got physically sick when he grovelled and apologized in the Sen. Thurmond matter. Just get loss Trent, and leave well meaning people alone. We do not care what you think. Ole Cut & Run Trent, is all.

Well .. facts be known .. McConnell DID LIE .. RIGHT TO THE FACE OF CRUZ.

He told Cruz one thing .. and then it turned out to be a lie. I believe this was one of the times that Cruz forced a re-do on his vote .. because he had been told it was one thing, and it really was another.

This is how McConnell runs his Senate .. he lies to get people to vote for things they did not intend to vote for. It’s typical that Lott would join in with McConnell (two peas in a pod). McConnell is really “Reid the II’s”.

I hope Crus does too. OTOH, Cruz should remain right where he is, but only since there's no Conservative party. If there were one, he could go & Trump could stay or join the Democrats as he's done many times before...

Mr. Cruz thanks the dishonorable thief Senator Lott for his endorsement.

“. . . the nastiness and lack of humility that are Ted’s calling cards. That really stinks, because I’d love to have supported him otherwise.”

Just for the record, who do you recommend we support in the Republican primary?

Trent Lott is worthless. And so is McConnell. Having said that, yelling ‘liar’ like that didn’t help the situation at all. I think a Harvard-educated, intelligent person could do better than acting like a toddler.
