Not a mistake. A purposeful move to weaken America.

And he is right. The Mooche probably wants a vacation home there and that is behind Barry’s motivations.

Cruz is on top of everything, he does not get caught off guard on any issue he knows... talking head reporters hate to interview him he is immune to their gotcha tactics he is informed.

He does not filibuster questions but he does provide background and context on the question, his answers contain the who,what,when,where,how and why, this is why he is so hated they know hardly any of this.
