You can post whatever articles you find. I’ve watched all of the debates, and can’t remember Ted bringing up the debt while Trump does over and over. I’ve seen many, many interviews of both - ditto. It’s not a central issue of Cruz’s campaign while it is in Trump’s top 3.

On that fact we also agree. Trump does repeat it often.

But Cruz took tons of heat for his stand to shut down the government to not allow the yearly debt to increase. You have to admit that. He was the one fighting to stop that. BOTH parties fought him tooth and nail on that. I think both Trump and Cruz are smaller government types than anyone else running. We both probably just disagree on which one is really that candidate, or perhaps we just disagree on which one would be most effective at getting smaller government, and lower deficits done. I wish either of those two well in the general election against Bernie or Hillary.

Yes, I agree Cruz took a lot of heat in the Senate and did a good job. He was my favorite until Trump started talking deportation. I kept waiting for Cruz to jump in, but hecwas strangely silent. I found that odd. Then he said ‘The American people don’t want to have that conversation’ about illegals here. That’s also exactly what Rubio started saying before he quit too.

I started thinking that Cruz wasn’t what I thought he was. Or that he had been corrupted, like so many that go to Washington. I still don’t know, because he’s done some pretty dirty things after saying he’d run a clean campaign. I wish he’d have removed my doubts so I could be happy with either.
