I’ll be shocked if they don’t try to primary the little so and so. Cruz is nothing more than an obstructionist. He has not been able to accomplish anything. He could take a lesson from Rand Paul.
Jesus saiid: "by their fruits you shall know them". "Lyin Ted's rotten fruit this election cycle revealed him for the sleaze bag he really is. As well as Glen Beck, et all.
These evil men would rather surreptitiously support the nefarious, utterly wicked, corrupt and lawless Hillary Clinton than openly support Mr. Trump who is a far more conservative candidate than Dole, McCain, Bush or Romney ever were.
As loyal conservatives and Republicans, the overwhelming majority of us worked very hard for and voted for these former Republican candidates in spite of the fact that they were less than conservative and did not represent many of our values BECAUSE THEY WERE OUR PARTY'S NOMINEES.
And now, these very same people are sticking the knife in all of our collective backs, NOT HONORING THEIR WORD and doing everything in their power to undermine Mr. Trump because he doesn't live up to their definition of a "conservative; this in spite of the fact that he, along with his stated policies and goals are much more conservative than ANY of these previous candidates ever were.
The truth is these purported "pillars of conservatism" aren't conservative at all. They are part of the utterly corrupt system and GOPE establishment!
They are opposed to Mr. Trump because they do not want THEIR "gravy train": enriching themselves, AND THEIR EXTENDED FAMILIES AND FRIENDS by leaching off of, and at the expense of us, the American tax payers to end. They know this will come to a swift end if Mr. Trump gets elected POTUS. Hence they are doing everything in their power to stop him because they do not care about America, American CITIZENS or the very existence of our once great nation.
ALL THESE MEN, WOMEN, POLITICIANS, the "main-stream-media" and "JOURNALISTS" CARE ABOUT IS THEMSELVES! (Yes I am yelling!)
The one up side to this whole tragedy is the fact that all of these people have finally revealed themselves for who and what they REALLY ARE! And we will NEVER forget it.
Teddie Bare reminds me of `Ben Zajac’, a blindly ambitious politician in the show `Boss’ starring Kelsey Gramer as the amoral Chicago mayor.
Albeit, a much homelier Zajac.
Of course, that character was a winner, as well as a bad husband and father. And person. So there it is.
EliminaTED.
Truthfully, Ted Cruz is too much of an asset to write him off.
What Mr. Trump should do is instead figure out what Cruz would be good at, and invite him to join the administration in that capacity.
One role could be as “government slasher”. In corporate America, a very valuable and useful role is as a “hatchet man”, who is hired specifically to close unwanted departments and fire people. He is the “bad guy”, and he goes from corporation to corporation doing just this job.
Critically important: once a cabinet secretary has been approved by the senate, the president can shift them to another agency at will. So say Cruz was made secretary of Veteran’s Affairs. This would make sense as Mr. Trump has said he wants to reform the VA.
He would likely be confirmed by the senate, just to get him out of there. But once confirmed, he could mow through the VA with a battle axe, purging thousands of useless and malevolent bureaucrats whose actions have killed veterans. He could then get the agencies’ books in order to provide much better healthcare to veterans.
Once he had done that, Mr. Trump could shift him to an agency where the senate would have *never* approved him. And the senate could not stop either of them.
Agency after agency: Department of the Interior, Energy, Health and Human Services, Housing and Urban Development, Homeland Security, Education, Treasury, Labor, Commerce, etc. Try to limit his time to six months for the smaller ones, and an entire year for the gigantic ones.
Slash and burn.
Animosity to Mr. Cruz aside, what’s not to like? Sure, he will get so many enemies that he could never become POTUS, but in that role he will do the US so much good that he will be remembered warmly by conservatives for a century, and bitterly cursed, vilified and hated by Democrats for twice as long.
Go away Ted. I used to brag about you, identify with you, even use you as my political example. But you violated your oath, and it became all about you. You embarrass me now. Go away Ted -— begone. I’m already hunting for your replacement.
