It seems cruz was posturing for this job years ago and was fooling the people into thinking he was anti establishment.
Bush administration
Cruz joined the George W. Bush presidential campaign in 1999 as a domestic policy adviser, advising then-Governor George W. Bush on a wide range of policy and legal matters, including civil justice, criminal justice, constitutional law, immigration, and government reform.
Cruz assisted in assembling the Bush legal team, devising strategy, and drafting pleadings for filing with the Supreme Court of Florida and U.S. Supreme Court, in the case Bush v. Gore, during the 2000 Florida presidential recounts, leading to two wins for the Bush team. Cruz recruited future Chief Justice John Roberts and noted attorney Mike Carvin to the Bush legal team.
That is why he made big productions on things like the budget that he knew would never prevail on and secretly supported others like fast track authority for Obama.
This is an old Rino trick and it is a shame that so may conservatives still fall for it.
Exactly right, my friend!
My message to Cruz, Kasich, and Rubio:
“You Can’t Always Get What You Want!”
Especially when you have the light of TRUTH shined on your dishonest actions for all to see!!
