GOP Strategist Ron Bonjean: ‘Ted Cruz Has a Very Bad Future Ahead of Him’
Breitbart ^ | July 28, 2016 | Dan Riehl

Posted on 07/30/2016 2:50:23 PM PDT by monkapotamus

Senator Ted Cruz has a very bad future ahead of him. Right now, he’s only viewed favorably by twenty-eight percent of his own party, compared to sixty-eight percent of people who view him extremely unfavorably. If you’re going on the stage to speak, you get behind our nominee. You don’t stay in the bunk below. You get up and you fight...

And he has nobody to blame, but himself.

“True conservatives” don’t go AWOL with the prospect of a Hillary Clinton Syrian refugee program on the horizon. Ted Cruz is dead to me.

That's true. Being a poor loser is never a good look, and neither is questioning the judgment of your party's members - Republican voters chose Trump, and if Republican politicians don't fall in line behind that choice, they are impugning the judgment of the people who put them in office.

What Cruz will do is become a democrat and be their shining star...

They won’t care that he isn’t NBC; his father was in Dallas with Oswald; that he lies, fact he’ll fit right in, and he can take Beck, Romney, Bushes, Kristol and the others with him, George Will is already there, shouldn’t be that hard to convert Levin...

So expect when he finishes his run on Senate, if he doesn’t get removed first, to turn RAT....

Instead he proved himself to be a very small man.


Exactly. He’s hiding behind his wife’s skirts while Americans are dead by the dozens in the streets. Ted Cruz is POTUS material? Laughable assertion at this point.

Cruz can overcome and remake himself. I suggest: Ted Cruz Revival Inc.

This is the kind of thing that happens when a malignant narcissist surrounds himself with sycophants and yes-men. You start believing your own propaganda.

I for one am delighted that Teddy decided to show his true colors at the convention. The only thing he could do better would be to outright endorse hitlery.

Trump is the issue now, but there will be time in 2018 to primary this toad.

That’s before he showed his true colors......that he’s an asshole and has the personality of a toenail. Mr. Smartass tried being something he wasn’t.......a REAL MAN....

First ones that come to my mind are Gary Hart & Ted Kennedy, either of whom could have been a Rat nominee.

Cruz’s constituency is those who think if a man bangs the Bible, that’s PROOF that he is holy, competent, and honest.

Accurate appraisal. I have been watching conventions since 1956 and attendant to other political speeches as well. He may have thought he knew what he was doing, but he did not. He destroyed his own career in a five minute missed window.

Post of the day, in my book.

He will never do any of those ghings, because he’s already perfect.

Yes, Gary Hart is a good example. Who know that less than 10 years later, marital infidelity would actually boost a candidacy. Gary Hartpence was born 10 years too soon.

I actually had a front row seat to the Gary Hart self-destruction. My wife and I were on our honeymoon and at a NYC hotel the day the scandal broke. Gary Hart did a press conference literally outside the hotel I was staying at. I remember us looking at the window down at Gary Hart with all the cameras on him and then having CNN on in the room and seeing the same scene on TV. We then went and saw CATS at the Winter Garden that night.

People told us for years what a giant a-hole the guy is. We didn’t believe them because we liked him on issues. Now we know.

Was that where he told the press to go ahead and follow him?

Actually, his value to Goldman has evaporated.

The only reason Heidi had value to them was she was married to a U.S. Senator and could provide Goldman all the connections that brings.

Cruz is now persona non grata and his connections have disappeared.

I expect both Heidi and Cruz will be looking for employment elsewhere.
