That’s fine. Please note that not one of Ted’s filibusters has stopped anything

Democrats were the majority in Cruz’s Obamacare and gun control filibusters. He and his associates didn’t fail us. The rest of the Senate did.

We knew that filibuster wasn’t going to go anywhere when Cruz and Lee stepped up, because we had (and still have) an overabundance of status quo idiots and weasels in DC.

The point was, he was doing what he promised the voters of Texas he would do, stand up to the Washington elites, defend the Constitution. No one else dared.

He was cheered back then on this forum. Now everyone parrots, like it’s a bad thing, that his colleagues don’t like him. Back then, that right there was a badge of honor.
