Cruz should be in that picture too. He stood by and said nothing when the Mississippi lynching happened.

Yes, Cruz did nothing and yet he is dumb enough to think they wouldn't do a Mississippi style lynching on him. Cruz never EVER was going to be allowed to be a viable candidate. I also think Cruz's stupidity during this primary will cost him his political career.

Yet another infraction by feckless Cruz. Just add it to the list!

Cruz actually congratulated Cochrane on his win.

-------------------------

I certainly congratulate my colleague, Thad," Cruz said on Fox and Friends Wednesday morning, pointing out that the Republican establishment poured millions into the Mississippi race and only won by a thin margin.

Cruz reminded the hosts that he did not endorse a candidate in the Mississippi primary, as he promised to stay out of incumbent Senate races.

But Cruz insisted that Cochran’s narrow victory should be a warning for Republicans in Washington, D.C...

The Texas Senator stated that although it was clear that thousands of Democrats voted in the primary, it was all part of the political battle.

It took 10 seconds to Google this:

If Cruz is as bad as you seem to think, would McDaniel be his MS campaign chair?

Do you have to give up all your integrity to cheerlead for Trump or just a little?

Absolutely.

Cruz funded the MISSISSIPPI TREATMENT against Chris McDaniel, placing a cool $200,000.00 on the table for the NSRC, as the committee’s Vice Chairman.

Mississippi was funded to prop up and re-elect Thad Cochran, with that re-election money. That was back when Cruz was making up with McConnell for his show boating in the Senate.

Cruz eventually issued more McConnell “favors”, rocking us all, by voting *for* TPA. Cruz kept his fingers in both ears, so he wouldn’t hear Jeff Sessions screaming the warning against it.

Cruz got the cash back for those favors. McConnell gave Cruz $300,000.00 for his campaign, through his surrogate lawyer.

Remember MISSISSIPPI!

Actually, that’s not true:

“We’ve seen serious allegations of voter fraud,” Cruz said on “The Mark Levin Show.” “And I very much hope that no Republican was involved in voter fraud. But these allegations need to be vigorously investigated and anyone involved in criminal conduct should be prosecuted.”

Earlier in the program, Cruz criticized the Washington establishment for its meddling in the runoff: “What happened in Mississippi was appalling. Primaries are always rough and tumble, but the conduct of the Washington, D.C., machine in the Mississippi runoff was incredibly disappointing.”

See the link below:

Cruz was the only member of the Senate to call for an official investigation into election misconduct.

And, for the record, Donald Trump did endorse Chris McDaniel:

You are misinformed. Cruz had nothing to do with Mississippi.

That was totally MConnnell's show.

That’s because he was under McConnell’s orders - he and Rand Paul both had to stay out of endorsing anyone but an incumbent. Cruz is not the guy his supporters think he is, and he is a friend of Mitch McConnell’s as well. Never mind the dog and pony show of him going on the Senate floor and calling Mitch a liar. There was no one there other than him and a camera. Cruz went to Israel several times with MM, once after being elected, and once before he was sworn in. He and McConnell, Boehner and Ryan are all friends. He has the Cruzbots so fooled.
