Trump surged as the Republican Party’s frontrunner on his campaign platform of deporting illegal aliens, promoting trade deals that prioritize the interests of American workers, and rejecting the party elites’ desire for increased military adventurism.
Ted Cruz, by contrast, wrote an op-ed urging Congress to fast track Obama’s Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). No fast-tracked trade agreement has ever been defeated.
Sen. Graham’s energetic endorsement of Cruz – and Cruz’s refusal to disavow the endorsement of a man who many believe betrayed the American people with his unyielding push for mass migration – will no doubt raise questions as to whether Cruz still supports his 2013 amendments to radically expand immigration.
Graham, as a backer of the 2013 Rubio-Schumer amnesty plan and the 2007 McCain-Kennedy amnesty plan before that, is perhaps the Republican Party’s most outspoken proponent of open borders immigration policies.
Perhaps more than anyone, Sen. Graham has attacked GOP voters, lawmakers, and thinkers for opposing mass migration policies.

Do you agree that any “bigot” in the Republican Party who opposes amnesty must be forced to “shut up”?
Evidently Cruz does.
LOL funny post right here! (And I’m a Cruz supporter. Forget Graham, why he hasn’t disavowed Glenn “Stabby” Beck is beyond me)
“I’ve never been opposed to tuition equality,” Christie said.
Evidently Christie supports “tuition equality” for illegals.
Hahaha. I’m a physician and MRO. You carry the gene, as I suppose Trump does too, and don’t drink you don’t become alcoholic.
I can’t imagine that he could hide the fact that he drinks even socially.
Any DUIs? No.
Samoa are unbinding. Let me check. I used the RNC. Trump got 37 Delegates from MIZOU
Let’s say if he’s over 760 by Wednesday AM he’s doing great, and I believe ahead of Romney’s pace.
Congratulations on being a physician. Yes I most certainly have a gene that leaves me pre-disposed to alcoholism as does Cruz. The difference is Cruz continues to drink despite having well documented problems as the links I shared with you demonstrate from his own mouth. And those are just a few of the many thousands that come up if you search using the terms Ted Cruz alcohol.
His problems with alcohol started early when he was arrested for having a case of booze in his trunk when he was a teenager. When he was in college he had further well documented problems with drinking. There is even video of him trying to perform drunk in a play currently up on the internet.
My wife and I are frequent volunteers at the USO. One of our current senators has been taken up to the USO at the airport to sleep it off because they have been too drunk to get on an airplane. We have seen this scenario play out several times. Yet this person has no DUIs that we know of.
When someone looks ten years older than he actually is, (Ted and Marco are the same age.) when someone has many broken corpuscles in his nose, when someone frequently has watery looking eyes, when someone has difficulty telling the truth and maintaining long term friendships, when someone’s own children recoil from them, when someone comes from a family where every member has had severe difficulties with alcoholism and still describes themselves as a “scotch man” in a recent interview, then I feel very confident is saying that he most likely has continuing difficulties with alcohol.
If you judge your patient’s difficulties only by whether they have a DUI then I have to wonder about the thoroughness of your professional evaluations. I am a retired firefighter; many of my coworkers have been pulled over by the police for bad driving after drinking alcohol. Most of them have been assisted by the police and did not get a DUI. This is wrong, but it works the same for politicians in most cases.
I got him at 690. Does that include the ones from Alaska?
And that is the sole reason he HAS to accept these fake endorsements. This whole show is turning into crazy town, the mormon white horse crap tossed it into psycho land.
One would have to compare the individual delegate counts for each contest to know where the difference is. The discrepancies are usually from Missouri which has not released an official count yet.
I am confident that Trump will make it to the convention with an overwhelming lead. It remains to be seen if the tens of millions of dollars being spent on negative ads and mischief from the media and GOPe will change the narrative enough to keep him from getting to 1237.
At this point Cruz has been reduced to a tool for the GOPe and he is gladly accepting their assistance. I am sure that he has no expectation of reaching 1237, and is hoping his new pals will help him get the nomination in a brokered convention.
2. Google images of Ted and Heidi with their daughters. The BODY LANGUAGE of their daughters---always looks weird and uncomfortable. ...Heidi publicly advises Elite Class women to have a nanny (or more than one.) Heidi has said she works 80 hours a week for Ted's campaign, soliciting donations from her Wall Street banking colleagues. Heidi said that in her Goldman Sachs job of Managing Director she works 80 hours a week. When Ted comes home to Texas from Washington, to visit his family, Heidi has said that the daughters call him, "guest."
To me this sounds like another political sham marriage along the same lines as Barack and Michele. Only in the Cruz marriage you have two driven over achievers who will both do anything to win. I like that better than the slacker Democrats, but we are still looking at something that is not genuine. And that is the actually the biggest problem that I have with Ted. It all looks too rehearsed because his entire image is guided by expert studies in demographics.
The issues with Cruz’s family past are well known. One can’t indict based on issues one had in one’s family. There are plenty of people who grew up in broken homes, homes with all types of abuse not just alcohol abuse who never became alcoholics or other abusers themselves.
I read/viewed these links. All they show is what was known already, that Cruz’s one sister died tragically from substance abuse (an issue he’s shared publicly) and that there is some unsubstantiated scandalous rumor about his other sister and yes about him being drunk onstage. These are both unsubstantiated (unless you have more proof than the defensive “search it yourself”, which is no “evidence” at all). The YouTube video doesn’t show him drunk on stage, it shows Cruz being asked a question about what kind of cocktail he likes. He answers he’s a “scotch man”. So what?
You know, again, it’s possible for someone to grow up in a household where the parents abused alcohol and not be an alcoholic themselves. If you dispute that you’re no better than the “gay gene” advocates.
I’m not going to argue with you, especially since all anyone has to do is examine the links you provided to see I’m right, so I’ll rest with that and this: Calumny is a sin.
Just sayin.
To understand Ted, you must know Heidi's resume. Also Ted and Heidi's years in the Bush administration. If you gave resume's a score, Heidi's is an A+ for Globalism. She has been right at ground zero of Globalist organizations (like CFR), figures (like Robert Zoellick and Robert Paster), actions (writing Bush trade policy which became Obamatrade.) She went from JP Morgan to Goldman Sachs to the White House advising on things like trade and derivatives BACK to Goldman Sachs where she was promoted from Vice President to Managing Director 9 days after Ted's election to the senate. There's only one higher position at GS: partner.
Ted is a stealth candidate. He is not what he SAYS he is in this campaign. Even cursory reading and informing oneself on Ted and Heidi will return that conclusion. But just as some refuse to read the vast relevant law that makes Cruz ineligible and instead PRONOUNCE him eligible and call you names for actually reading the Constitution, legal scholarship, related legislation, court precedents---they also want Cruz to be something he clearly isn't and refuse to INFORM themselves and instead stubbornly call people names who actually INFORM THEMSELVES.
Cruzers on FR are the very definition of willful low-info or no-info voters.
That's right. Christie NEVER called all of us who wanted to secure the border...BIGOTS like Graham did!

Nice rant.
BTW, Heidi had illegal aliens working in her own office. Goldman never hid it, they bragged about it. Goldman execs met with Obama to form his executive amnesty.
I don’t think that Trump will get to 1237 delegates. As a hardened Cruz supporter I will declare that Trump wins the nomination if he does get the 1237.
That includes Trump I suppose
It’s a SAFE BET that Cruz is OWNED by the GOPe - as they are his only source of funding.
What is REALLY SAD is the number of FReepers willing to vote for him...even though the ONLY THING he can do is give us Linda, Jeb, or Romney, in a brokered convention.
But I guess the strategy of the GOPe (using Cruz to stop Trump) is simply OVER THE HEAD of many conservative voters.
