Ted Cruz’s 2016 presidential campaign ended just two months ago. But his campaign for next cycle is already getting started.

According to a report Wednesday in National Review, the Texas senator is making big changes inside and outside of his Senate office to ready his political operation for a 2020 run. Cruz has been “conspicuously silent” recently, the report notes, but behind the scenes has “supervis[ed] the vast expansion of his electoral enterprise, integrating the operations of his campaign team,” and has instituted staffing changes to reflect his long-term goals.

Among them is Cruz’s decision to bring on a longtime Republican campaign operative—with no Hill-office experience—as his Senate chief of staff. His current chief is departing to work as a senior adviser to two new Cruz-aligned nonprofit groups

I doubt that he can even win his re election for senate?
Say good bye to Pac money , many donors won’t support him any more. The GOP won’t finance him either and probably make him go through a rough primary.
I bet he won’t be using “my word is my bond” anymore either?

What a strategy! Sure, I can’t wait. Does he plan a personality transplant? If not, he’s toast. He’ll probably be parking cars at a casino in 2020.

I’m well aware of Cruz’ scholastic achievements and superb memory. However, time and again he exercises poor judgement and this is due to lack of ethics and moral character.
