Cruz’ principles don’t include honesty. One small example, he is currently saying that Trump “wants to gut the 2nd amendment”. He is basing this on the fact that in 1999 Trump expressed support for renewing the “Assault Weapon Ban”. He knows perfectly well that Trump has long since changed his position on that particular issue, has never wanted to “gut” the 2nd amendment. Moreover Cruz worked in the Bush/Ashcroft Justice Department, whose official position was that the AWB should be renewed. That was years after citizen Trump’s declaration of support, and Cruz never spoke out against the policy at that time. So much for Lyin’ Ted’s great constitutional principles.

“Cruz’ principles don’t include honesty”

It amazes me the amount of lies that Cruz spits out. I expected the MSM to do it to Trump, but in comparison, they they have been much more balanced.

From Bearing Arms.com date 3-4-16- During the Republican primary debate last night, Donald Trump was hit repeatedly for flip-flopping his positions, sometimes within 24 hours. Politico notes that one of those "flips" was reversing position on his prior support for banning the civilian ownership of common semi-automatic rifles and pistols that Trump and his fellow Democrats have long demonized as "assault weapons."

Apparently Trump has recently evolved on the issue. And just because Cruz worked in the Justice Dept does not make him responsible for their policies. No sale.

Cruz is by far more honest than Trump. He also has better policies, a superior intellect, and excellent speaking and debate skills. He doesn't rely on insults, mockery, taunts, and name-calling.
