Friday at the Irving-Las Colinas Chamber of Commerce in Irving, TX, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) said some President Donald Trump political problems were “self-inflicted.”

Cruz said, “What I’m trying to do is just ignore the circus.”

Ted likely agrees with Peggy Noonan’s hit piece today and vica versa...either they are stupid or tin eared or cheering for an overthrow.


I thought Noonan’s piece was disgusting...and isn’t it possible they can be all 3? STUPID, TIN EARED AND CHEERING FOR OVERTHROW?

Where has Cruz said he hates Trump?

Nowhere?

Ah.

wow....I sense a lot of anger with you. Maybe you should eat a snickers bar.
Cruz is right. Trump speaks from the hip and doesn’t really seem to think. Also, I think a lot of his advisors are telling what he can do and not what he should do.
And calling someone a faggot because he disagree or refuses to blindly follow a leader is a very, very liberal thing to do.

"Ted Cruz: Some of the Trump Damage Is ‘Self Inflicted’"

Okay Ted...give us some specific examples. Making claims is one thing, backing them up with facts is a whole 'nother thing. Obviously Cruz supports the liberal's habit of making allegations, then not providing evidence to back them up.

Cruz is right.

Balderdash. Trump's damage isn't self-inflicted. That's a totally false Left wing talking point.

Cruz is still displaying some lingering bitterness from his abysmal campaign.

If Ted Cruz can't say something positive about President Trump in this atmosphere—an attempted Democrat coup where the Republic itself is at stake—then he needs to STFU. Blaming the President for this situation—piling on, in effect—is an absolute copout which disregards the facts.

And the same applies for Negative Nancies around here. This situation calls for aggressively defending this President from all the false narratives, and the notion that any significant portion of the President's problems are self-inflicted is absolute, unmitigated nonsense...

Ted speaks methodically, deliberately, and carefully, yet he still effs things up for himself. Proof? He lost the GOP primary to a great guy who, as you say, “speaks from the hip and doesn’t really seem to think.”

It doesn’t help them as much to just impeach Trump right now as the Bush treatment would work with Trump, where you build up the hate for Trump and all Republicans over the years.

Actions speak louder than words. This isn’t the first time Cruz has publicly given aid and comfort to Trump’s enemies.

‘Trump speaks from the hip and doesn’t really seem to think.’

Shallow analysis. Trump was wildly outspent and outnumbered in the primaries, and prevailed against everything the Swamp could throw at him. He was massively outspent by Hillary too, and had to fight her, the MSM, the Swamp and his own party to win. You don’t prevail against those odds by not thinking.

Senator Windbag strikes again. It's rather apparent he's not any sort of administrator, manager or organizer, nor does he seem capable of such. He just needs to shut the F up and vote appropriately when bills come up on the Senate floor. Nothing more, nothing less.

He is not a puppet or robot. He is entitled to his opinion. I like and support Trump totally but he does talk to much at times and needs to be aware of such.

Just go to youtube.com and in the little search window type “mark taylor prophecies”. You’ll get lottsa links, beginning with the 2011 one, where God originally spoke to Taylor. Then 2014, when God said Trump IS the next POTUS. And then little updates, bringing us right up to April 2017. There are also videos of Taylor’s guesting on several Christian TV shows, sharing what the Lord is telling him. Taylor stresses the point: This is NOT Trump’s plan. This is God’s plan to save and revive America, using Trump as His agent. And woe betide these reprobates who are selling their eternal souls to try and stop Trump.

And you know this how, exactly - when Windbag says stuff like that, for whose benefit is it for? His constituents, or whom? What positive purpose does it serve?
 
He is entitled to his opinion.
 
This is beyond mere "opinion" - not when it was done in public - he has contributed to and joined in with an adversarial agenda. And not for the first time.
 
 
I like and support Trump totally but he does talk to much at times and needs to be aware of such.
 
Not like he's soliciting for any outside advice - he's done well so far without it. If you have fallen for the media narrative I can't help you there. That's something for you to puzzle out and deal with.

When the hell are Ted Cruz and all the other GOP going to...

Support President Trump unconditionally!!!

This is a perfectly responsible request. He leads his party. And Trump has literally saved the Republican party from dying by corruption. Every other Republican is a political lightweight and puppet compared to Trump.

Nobody in the Republican party is willing to stand up and fight on Trump's side! Defend him. Say what a great job he's doing.

Dagnabbit! Grow a pair you sheeple!

Hillary's campaign would have eaten Ted for breakfast.

As a 20-year veteran of FR, I can tell you that many of the same players in the Media that were catching spears for Billy the Rapist in the impeachment wars are now throwing poisoned DNC spears at President Trump.

A really good book would be comparing the coverage by the same Usual Media Suspects in the two impeachment wars.

Let us recall that MoveOn.org was started in 1998 to advocate that the country "censure Clinton and move on" from Big Bill's obstruction of justice felony.

You can't make this stuff up.
