Cruz is a staunch conservative but as mentioned by people here, he absolutely is being hypocritical with some of his actions. At the end of the day Cruz, Rubio and Trump all have their warts (but they are all three much better alternatives then the rest of the R’s and definitely Bernie or Hillary). Each candidates people acting like their candidate is holier than thou is getting sickening to listen to.
I have been leaning Cruz but he worried me today when he basically implied he wouldn’t have to listen to the Supreme Court and as President, he would take the actions he felt were right in accordance with the Constitution. In essence , he made himself the mirror image of Obama. Cruz may be smart as hell, but no President has the right to say they can take steps outside of that process.
See Rogers v Bellei
Regarding your “trump worshiper” comment, it is vapid.
Trump’s message has been consistent and everyone knows it ... nice try, but you failed
Trump
He’s an American and he loves his country.
He’s not ‘owned’ by anybody
He’s not a Washington insider or an establishment politician
He’s smart, unbelieveably successful and charismatic
His remarkable children are a testament to his character and abilities
I believe him when he says he’ll put up the wall.
I believe him when he says he’ll put a stop to the Muslim invasion.
I believe him when he says he’ll remedy the illegal alien problem
I believe he can make America great again
He will keep his promises. He does not want to sully the Trump name, but to glorify it and go down in history as one of our great presidents
I have not heard this before. When was Cruz naturalized? Link?
I wouldn’t call barely beating the Tard for third place in NH fantastic. LOL.
A Congressional act granted citizenship provisionally to persons in Cruz’s circumstance, to retain the citizenship granted required the person return to the United States prior to attaining the age of 23 years and to remain in the United States for five years. The retention requirements were later reduced and then eliminated, neither of which bear on the Congressional grant, i.e. naturaliztion.
Trumps got problems that are going to bite him in the rear....
Veterans Wait After Trump Fundraiser Majority of nonprofits reached said they hadn’t heard from Trump foundation for weeks....looks like he’s following the pattern some have stated he does....the money doesn’t get there.
Wall Street has article about it.
Trump is owned by the banks..you can find those records on line....and he certainly is an establishment politician now, he worked with the before and will do so again..the only thing that’s changed is he’s running for Pres. he’s already told you he’s going to do deals with the Demorats. ...and pointing to ones Children does not always reflect the parents character or abilities, especially when they’re born with a spoon in their mouth.
When exactly was the “naturalization” ceremony for Cruz? I have yet to hear a solid date as to when that happened.
You are embarrassing yourself ...
For telling the truth about Trump wanting Oprah for his Vice-President?
You are kidding yourself if you think Trump is a conservative.
Again, you are embarrassing yourself ... i’ll indulge you here - if you think unlimited open-borders , evil trade deals , endless war , and shady loans from globalist banks are good and Conservative , Cruz is your guy
Team Cruz was pushing the Carson is out thing an hour and a half after Carson had already repudiated.
Problem with that argument is that CNN did not tell anyone Carson had repudiated for hours after that. The CNN reporter who was sending out tweets clarified things immediately, but there's no evidence any of Cruz's people were following his tweets; they were following the broadcast news. Tweets going out to fewer than 31,000 people are pretty ineffective when the broadcast has reached millions.
Cruz's super-fantastic-third-place finish in New Hampshire...
Cruz finished with 11.7%. His polling avg. leading up to the vote? 11.8%.
In other words, he got almost exactly the votes he was supposed to get, the voting share he was predicted to get, in NH. That's not the recipe by which 'super fantastic' is measured, especially when that super fantastic is 3rd, and less then 1/8 of the votes cast.
I cannot imagine anyplace other than politics such metrics are considered good...
Ted has achieved about 6,000 votes above his polling point. He's going to have to do a lot better than that in SC and NV to be within shouting distance of the win. He needs at least 7 points in each of them to get within range. 1 for 4 with a show and 2 places - it just isn't going to help him going into March.
That's not picking sides, it's reality in the face of incessant spin.
And what of the Cuban guy born in Canada?
Almost all research say he’s almost universally disliked,is often termed ‘slimy’ and dishonest
and practices dirty politics
His record for not showing up for the job he was elected to do is almost unparalleled
