All Aboard: Ted Cruz Officially Joins the Trump Train
Townhall.com ^ | November 3, 2016 | Justin Holcomb

Posted on 11/03/2016 6:11:37 PM PDT by Kaslin

Texas Sen. Ted Cruz has officially joined the Donald Trump campaign and has already hit the trail with Gov. Mike Pence in Iowa and Michigan.

After a heated primary season for the Republican Party, Trump and Cruz came out of the Republican National Convention with a less-than-friendly relationship.

"Sen. Cruz will join Gov. Pence in Iowa and Michigan today," Pence's press secretary Marc Lotter told USA TODAY. "Having Sen Cruz join the governor today underscores what he has been saying for the past few weeks and we are seeing happen across the country - it is time for Republicans to come home."

I noticed that some want to abandon the GOP for a 3rd party. Hope they have the wisdom to see we can take it back like never before. To repeat myself a bit, the democrats never even tried to correct things when the radicals infiltrated over 40 years ago. Maybe longer.

Patriots need to stick together,

Where was that patriot of yours all year? You folks talk out of both sides of your face.

I guess he finally figured out which side his bread is buttered on...

...after dropping it butter-side down on a floor covered with fly-poop and mouse turds...

Why won’t cRuz bring himself to say Donald Trump’s name?

If he truly had come around, he’d easily be able to say that he wholeheartedly supports Donald J Trump. Not just “the Republican”.

The only train Lyin Ted is on is the one he’s riding out of TX.

(And, this is coming from one of his earliest supporters...of time and $$$)

No, you’re ignoring what she said. She said we need Trump in the White House and Cruz in the SEnate. Don’t twist her words. Especially when it’s just to twist the knife in the people who would very much like to stand with Trump AND Cruz on behalf of this country. Why are you sowing this crap amongst an already uneasy alliance? I have family members who will probably never vote for Trump because of the kind of crap going on right here right now. Make up your mind: Are patriots supposed to unite against Hillary, or are we supposed to continue knifing each other in the back right up to the nation’s doomsday?

Make up your mind.

BTTT!!

We’ve learned exactly who the”patriots” are, this election. Trump has flushed all of the coveys of liars/backstabbers.

It was early to mid sixties, and I agree. They just went full nuts off the rails.

If Trump were to lose, I’d be for a third party. Without him the RP is dead.

On November 9th, one of two things will happen this year.

I will wake up happy as a lark and ready to see Trump return our party to sanity, or I will be registered as an independent by the end of the day never to be a Republican again.

I’m not going to be a part of the party that put us through hell this year, unless change is in the air.

He was defending his wife against accusations of being ugly and the devil incarnate.

Make up your mind. Are we supposed to stick together to defeat Hillary, or are we supposed to knife each other in the back to the very end?

What’s it gonna be? What is YOUR choice? What are YOU willing to give for this nation?

Natural born citizen means born here of citizen parents.
No possibility of being anything else
No foreign birth
No foreign parent(s)
No foreign citizenship(s)

Amazing how many people even here in FReeperland still don’t know what it means, or don’t want to acknowledge it because their favorite is ineligible.

Rubio, Jindal, Cruz, Haley and George P Bush are all ineligible.

Principles must be adhered to even when they are inconvenient.

Good advice. We need everyone we can get.

773H, I'd even appoint Mutt Romney as Ambassador to Nord Mehico if he'd come out in favor of Trump now.

North Mexico, or whatever you want to call it, can be an American sponsored homeland for all the illegal aliens to return home to . . . let the corrupt southern portion of Mexico collapse into the Banana Republic which it has always been.

Within a generation, North Mexico will have an economy on par with Chile and won't even feel the need to export people to make ends meet. Of course, friendly trade, tourism, visits and exchange can then bloom to the point that we have a lot of mutually cross border commerce like we do with Canada.

You fool.

You spent all year quiet as a church mouse, never an ill word against a man that passed up and opportunity to address millions to help the ticket.

And now when he’s just talking to thousands, you try to play him off as ‘the good guy’.

Tell it to someone who doesn’t see your for what you are.

I'll never forget when the leftwing thugs shut down Trump's Chicago rally and the lying Media & Democrats blamed it on Trump rather than the thugs. Cruz joined in and also blamed Trump and lost me and many other of his supporters for it.

Now that Project Veritas has published the video of Democrat Party officials confessing that the recruited, paid and sent in those leftwing thugs to use violence to shut Trump and his supporters, HAS TRUMP EVER APOLOGIZED for the naivety or lack of character that caused him to join the enemy?

He shouldn’t have come out against Trump after the Access Hollywood audio.

You people just have to spit on your allies, don’t you?

He's not an ally. He's an opportunist. He's going to turn on Trump the first chance he has to make himself look better. He IS establishment. He was the "conservative" in the kabuki theatre to keep the establishment forces in place.

Has Ted uttered the words, “I endorse Donald Trump for president”?

No?

Thought not.
