Is Ted Cruz Just "Living the Dream"?

Posted on 03/25/2016 10:45:59 PM PDT by GLDNGUN

"People don't really change much from the ages of 17 and 18". Is this true?

and yet a 70 year old lifelong liberal can change in the past 10 months...

And you are a lying POS. When are you going to change?

How does that Trump Kool-Aid taste? Apparently it leaves you foaming at the mouth.

I’ve said I used to be a big Ted fan, and thought little of Trump. Then Iowa and got to know them, and feel exactly opposite now.
Having said that, as to this storm of accusations, so far they’re just that: finger-pointing.
We’re going to know more about these charges that he’s not who he claims to be in the next few days. So far all we’ve got are allegations.
Everyone needs to tuck in their horns and wait for all the evidence.

Would you like me to post some for you?

Don't bother. I've never liked fairy tales, so I wouldn't bother to read any flattering stories about him.

Narcissism is one of the hardest disorders to cure because of the complete nature of narcissism itself.
A narcissist has to admit to himself that he is wrong and that will NEVER happen.

I just want this over, Cruz has no chance he needs to quit and his sycophants (20%) here on FR have to come to grips with reality.

I admit this is a superficial analysis, but it seems that Ted Cruz has many of the same psychological pathologies as Obama - narcissism, lack of empathy, poor socialization, tendency to lie to maintain his persona - which stem from father abandonment issues, early life insecurities and lack of mature parenting.

I thank God that I changed A LOT since I was that age. I couldn’t even imagine.

There are no cures for many personality disorders. I think we are watching The Clash of The Titanic egos right now with Trump and Cruz. Neither one is going to give up until everything has been destroyed.

I have been a Trump supporter from the beginning, so has the wife. As for Cruz...what I read about him here on FR he sounded like the second coming of Washington. So I listened. I listened to his speeches. Immediately my mind flashed back some 45 years earlier...where did I hear that tone and cadence? That’s right Marjoe Gortner! From then on all I could here was Marjoe on the stage shaking his fist and calling out the demons and selling prayer clothes on the side. Maybe that goes well in some parts of the country, But I have always steered clear of the snake handling types....Just something about them.

Oh yeah...Jim Baker, Jimmy Swaggart and a whole host of other holier than thou religious dudes shaking their fists at the devil and pawning off prayer clothes to little old ladies at five, ten, twenty bucks a pop.

Trump ain’t a preacher and never pretended to be. I would trust him more if I knew he drank on occasion but that’s all right cause I gave up drinking more than 20 years ago. He’s go the mojo. He’ll do just fine. As for Cruz...I hope he finds peace. I don’t know if the allegations are true, but it fits the pattern. He should just go quietly, without fanfare and go seek grace...maybe work as a pro bono lawyer for the legal aid society or something. Get some humility and come back when he’s right in the head and heart.

I heard you still live in your mom's basement.

As a Veteran, I decided to join the Navy Reserve instead of accepting the drafted position of wading in rice paddies. I am a Trump supporter.

Do you have any military experience? I certainly don'ts any display of maturity with constantly changing positions and boastful talk.

BTW, did you know that Donald Trump was given 4 student and 1 medical deferment from the military?

Why don't you crawl back under your bridge and quit trolling with crap on your line. You will never catch anything!

VOTE FOR THE WINNER. VOTE DONALD TRUMP!

From what i have read of people that have known Cruz their opinion is that Cruz is a completely driven nutcase, he is obsessed with “Ruling the world” so when he loses this one expect to see him again in 4 years and the 4 years after.
He is a power hungry, empathy lacking, lying (naturally) narcissistic sociopathic user of people.
or in simplistic terms a complete NUTCASE.
His Freeper 20% sycophantic followers need to get a grip with reality.

Ew. He had that same strange face on a gangly body. He was a know it all but unpleasant even as a teen. My son is that age and is so modest and gentle when he talks. Ted Cruz was insecure but in your face and a bit braggart. Those are bad qualities to combine.

Good post. I definitely see some autism spectrum in him. He is socially absolutely clueless.

If these stories are half true, after Herman Cain, he thought he could run for President and not mess up his family forever? He is really repulsive. He’s not evil with intent to harm others, just only out for himself, every inch of himself, all the time. With no consideration for the feelings or position of others. He has trashed all his political mistresses and maybe the hookers too. His kids may never recover from this as they wont even fully realize it all until they are older. He has humiliated his wife, probably not for the first time.

He’s a rather disappointing human being.
