I understand the reasons some folks on our side have soured on Ted Cruz. But I lived in Texas when he was ran for his first term and always respected his ability -- and even desire -- to defend his position anywhere, anytime.

Good for Ted. This could be the way to shut the whiners up.

"Local Democratic Party leader Leah Payne said she was “surprised” by the conservative senator’s willingness to interact personally with protesters."

Surprisingly, Leah exhibits some brain cell activity that is normally flatlined in the nominal Demonicrat Party zombie.

I told myself that I will become a Trump fan if he does three things:

1. Push for defunding Planned Parenthood.

2. Nominate the best people for his Cabinet positions.

3. Be nice to Ted.

So, far it is looking real good.

Cruz would be a SCOTUS justice we wouldn’t have to worry about.

Ted might not have been swayed by them, but he could have given them food for thought just by engaging them.

One must remember five years ago when there were Ted and a hand full of others speaking up for us. The people bad mouthing him should recall he was fighting for us when President Trump was still bankrolling democrats!!!

They were protesting Betsy DeVos at the airport in Texas?

If this is true My bet many/most/all but one of the dozens there wouldn't know who Ted Cruz is.

Did he tell them she was a good pick and why? The article says he thanked them for protesting.

Fake news?

Dems and Protesters are surprised because they would never do the same. Nows not the time to play nice! Because of these libs, my family is in danger with these open borders, crime has run rampant, movies and shows are sex filled disgusting displays, and gays can now marry. I have no regard for them and would not give them the time of day. But that’s me.

Ted is coming back in my opinion - I think he finally resolved the disappointment of being edged out and is back to doing what he does best.

[BeadCounter]

Cruz or in general, a Conservative Evangelical would make a good Supreme Court Justice. The bench is too unbalanced, with the Ivy league, etc. The Court should reflect somewhat, the fabric of this nation.

[PGR88]

I’m not soured on Cruz. He’s super smart and conservative too. He also held off from attacking Trump at the start when all the RINOs thought it was all so funny. He and Trump got into it later when they were the only two serious candidates remaining, but that was petty stuff. I would happily have supported a President Cruz.

Ted Cruz should go to Berkeley — take on irrational snowflakes living in the mouth of The Beast... He has a chance - better than a snowball’s chance in hell... one of the few who might be able to do it.
