as opposed to Cruz who can’t even work with Republicans.
But can work with employers who really like those H1B employees.
“as opposed to Cruz who can’t even work with Republicans.”
***************
You said it. Close the thread. Hammer already hit nail, *see above.
Who were until very recently better and more accurately called Vichy Republican or Democrat Lites around here.
How soon we forget.
Mind boggling.
Cruz ain’t the topic.
This is a good thing? Are there any non-negotiable principles, in your opinion? Why *should* Cruz “work with” sell-out Republicans if they are joining Democrats in fleecing future generations and destroying our nation? Please explain!
So now working with the GOPe is a positive?
Why don’t the Tumpettes just admit they are in the love with the reality star? Just admit he’s a liberal. He’s telling you he is going to enjoy working with Nancy Pelosi! He doesn’t deny it, he just said it. No way in hell around his statement today. Go ahead and vote for him, but stop the BS that he is anything but an establishment insider.
It seems he has been able to work with Mike Lee, Jeff Sessions, Rand Paul (on occasion) and with several other more conservative Senators. The McConnell, Graham and McCain type Senators are the ones that he thankfully has trouble working with. Obama doesn’t have any trouble working with them though. Apparently Trump will follow in the shoes of Obama.
Work with democrats is equivalent to supporting incrementalism. Think of the camel and the tent
You got that right. Every day the "true Conservatives" sound more like the hoary old Communists who insist that had we ever actually had a pure implementation of Communism and we'd have seen "Real Communism" take over the world.
Just as Communism never got around to delivering what it promised but did make it easy for the elite few to make themselves ever more comfortable and more powerful, so have "Conservatives" in this country found it far easier to do the exact same things without ever bothering to deliver anything they promise. Hence, a huge percentage of the population cannot see the benefits of Conservative principles through the haze of elitist implemented "Crony Conservatism" that works hard to unencumber the upper crust and their toadies while increasingly encumbering average people.
For example, who in their right mind really believes Conservatives are in favor of "Free Trade" when every day they see another small business put out of business for not kowtowing to queers, not having foreseen that a President who is dedicated to eliminating a basic could eliminate that industry and related businesses along with it, or having profit margins too thin to pay a wage well above industry norms when local government dictates that wage be paid ?
That's the "Conservative" principle of free trade in practice within the US where social and economic regulations combine to create high tariffs whatever "Free Trade" may be in theory. There's no real free trade for small business within the United States but "Conservatives" will fight tooth and nail to ensure there's free trade for those who donate to the Congress of Nobles and offshore whole industries.
Given the fact that Conservative principles do not work in practice as they do in theory when society is ever more corrupt and amoral, it's no surprise that Cruz, from Texas where oil is King, is praised as a "true Conservative" and "man of principle" when he says he'll end the Ethanol mandate. Never mind that to even have a shot at a second term as Senator if he flops running for President Ted had damn well better call for an end to Ethanol subsidies. (Especially now that it's doubtful Palin will come to his rescue next time around.)
Everyone who makes it through the Ivy League machine is convinced of two and only two things, 1) The majority of Americans are "little people" who exist only to be of service to the elites who make it through the Ivy League, and 2) principles are for "little people", something to swing them one way or another with depending on the needs of the elite few.
JMHo
So the job of someone in Congress is to “go along to get along”? We’ve had fifty years of that kind of pathetic thinking and our country is 20+ trillion in debt with a government that wants to control every facet of our lives. Senator Cruz’s biggest problem with the DC establishment is he decided to govern the same way he ran for office.
Let me get this straight. You want a Republican president who will work with Democrats? We were all ticked off when W did it.
Drone on........drone on.
There once was a time when we wanted someone to stand up to the establishment/cartel.
Correction Liberal Republicans, two different animals.
You're right. Much better to simply let Nazi Pelosi run things with Trump.
What's the difference?
Lol, that is sad, but rather funny.
