Exactly, Judy. He's acting again. And the script is one of those melodramatic soapbox opera things. He paints himself heroic: "in this foxhole together". What does he know about foxholes? He's a phony from head to toe. Cruz thinks he's Ronald Magnus II, but he will never measure up to Reagan. Reagan could make grandiose speeches, but what made them work is people knew there was a man behind the words. But with Cruz, what has he accomplished in his life other than being a magnificent office seeker? He's a speech and debate point maker. Fine, but a couple great journalists -- Greta Van Susteren of Fox News and John Dickerson of CBS -- drew out and exposed the deception and lies of Mr. Cruz for everyone to see. Fortunately, the vast majority of voters figured out Cruz in time. We must continue to tell the truth about this cartoonish character and the World Domination game he's been playing in his head since high school. John Boehner was right. And to be honest, Ted is probably more dangerous than Hillary. |
In addition to your excellent points, I really don’t believe Cruz was as good a debater as everyone thought.
After observing him a few times, I could see that he just keeps talking and talking and won’t relent until the other person is so sick of his rude and obnoxious ranting that they just throw in the towel to get away from him.
It came to that with Sean Hannity, Megyn Kelly and another interview whose name escapes me at the moment. They were so fed up they were rolling their eyes, losing their cool, etc. because he’s so arrogant and abrasive.
That Photoshop creeps me out so much.
