Cruz’s gutless nature is why people chose Trump over him in the primaries.

His inability to stand up to Trump for the sake of himself, his wife, and his principles has forever emasculated him politically.

Maybe, but folks were on to him before that.

As they are to similar Republican career politicians who can’t muster the courage to speak up.

Good. We want people with backbones, not democrat-lites.

Whataboutism seems appropriate here.

I hope so. It’s the only way to salvage the GOP from Trumpism.

SixFoot · 2020-08-25T19:56:32.819Z

Oh, you think the GOP is going back to business as usual after Trump? Tell me more. lol

Yeah Ted Cruz is known for his liberal leanings.

SixFoot · 2020-08-25T20:11:06.676Z

Defend him if you’d like.

Yeah you want real Republicans like your lifelong Democrat, pro gun control, pro abortion president, not liberals Ted Cruz, the guy who singlehandedly caused a government shutdown by filibustering a budget.

Amazing, libs are triggered that conservatives are saying negative things about Cruz.

Nah, I am definitely mocking you for calling Trump a rock ribbed conservative and Ted Cruz a “Democrat lite.”

SixFoot · 2020-08-25T20:16:05.133Z

Sure thing, Tommy. You hold on to that as tightly as you can.

You said it, not me. I remember you loving Ted Cruz in the pre-Trump era. And the only positions he’s changed since are to stay in line with Trump.

No you don’t, but I can see why you need to believe that in order to keep flailing on. Amazing.

I see the market for historical revisionism is still grim.

SixFoot · 2020-08-25T20:19:46.242Z

Then quit rewriting our history.

Okay lol. I’m not counting on it. Trumpism is a virulent cancer on the GOP body politic, and one too many party members “enthusiastically support.” The party may well be terminal at this point.

SixFoot · 2020-08-25T21:32:44.427Z

That’s good news for libs, right?
