“He was defeated before he began - the very definition of courage.”

I would call that something else.

Cruz is going to be in the Senate for at least the next 5 years, so get used to him being disruptive.

There isn't anything you can do about it.

When our football team (local HS) started out two years ago (new private school), they lost every game by like 40 50 even 60 points.

There was one game they won. they referred to it as
the game we won’, of course.

Would it have been right to tell them to forfeit every game? They were small, had a lousy coach and some wannabee Texas cheerleaders (and their moms, yikes).

Did they go onto the field and say ‘eh, no coach’?

If not, why not?

It was courageous of them to get out there. They had a goal which did not involve winning that particular game.

Duh.

Two years later they are as no undefeated.

Lost their best player last year, even.

Undefeated after seven games. Same league.

You’d prefer the GOP-e surrender quietly, then.

Do you have a strategy to beat the Democrats?

I would call you an idiot. The problem is you. You own everything that is coming to you.
