Me neither, but if he really laid it all out on the table transparently in the book, I am impressed.
Looking to hear others reviews here, if he is really that transparent in the book, I am going to buy a copy.
Cruz wasn’t deemed to be worthless, incompetent, or whatever else BS until conservatives allowed themselves to be distracted by the new loud, shiny thing. That’s what irritates the crap out of me. I thought we were smarter than that.
Cruz isn’t flailing around, yelling about what he’s going to do. He’s intelligent, cool, sharp, and he can effectively destroy a liberal’s argument without looking like a fool. On the other hand, Trump is on twitter yelling about kicking somebody’s a##. Is that what you want for a president? Seriously?
And then there’s the inescapable fact that Cruz has a solid conservative record while Trump is a liberal. But it seems we don’t let details like that bother us anymore.
After all, Trump is telling us what we want to hear, so that’s enough, right? I wonder how he’s going to make Mexico pay for that fence...has he gotten back to you with any details? Because the last time I asked one of his fans about it, he huffed, don’t be stupid, there are all kinds of specifics. And when pressed, he called me a fraud and refused to talk to me, LOL.
This book makes him far and away the most transparent candidate out there.
Cruz gets nothing done.
have you read it?
Cruz is a brilliant guy and a fabulous lawyer, but he is not a leader. We need a leader.
I will be this evening, I just got it via kindle.
Cruz is every bit a leader. Trump is a clown. Again, do you really want your president to be some fool yelling that he’s going to kick someone’s a##?
Trump does a lot of talking, but what has he done for you?
How’s he going to make Mexico pay for that fence?
What happens when he blows up the oil fields (LOL) and gas skyrockets?
And whatever happened to all of the stunning information his investigators were digging up on Obama’s birth certificate? He never did get back to us on that, did he?
The condition of the country lies squarely at the feet of Congress.
The effective conservative president is going to have to have TONS of courage. Trump is the only one.
Cruz will do his best, but we need somebody whose rhetoric and actions are strong. Someone who does not wither with criticism, and who really fights hard.
Could it be that you don't trust Trump enough to vote for him because of the Alinskying that the Left has been doing to Trump since the 1980s? Most of my conservative friends dismiss Trump now for specious reasons, his hair, his bombastic nature, his loud mouth.
If you read his biography, you see he is a man of substantial management skill and accomplishment. He is worth at least $ 4 billion, something few clownish people can claim.
Makes me wonder what my conservative wimp friends would they have said about TR, or Washington, or Jefferson, or for that matter, any one of the Founding Fathers, whose rhetoric was off the scale compared to Trump.
Face it, the Republic is against the ropes and not looking strong; time for a really brave, strong, really outspoken POTUS.
Trump’s true purpose is to get elected President so he can try to fix the country. He obviously feels he has a plan to do that. I’m sure he spends zero time thinking about deep sixing Ted Cruz. Who by the way is the only other candidate I like. At some point the two of them might want to team up.
Where would you rather see Ted Cruz? In the Whitehouse or as Attorney General for a couple of years putting people in prison and then Supreme Court Justice? Everybody does not need to be Presdient to effect change.
I would be perfectly happy with Perry, who was a highly successful governor of a state with a larger economy than many countries.
Between Trump and Cruz, bad hair, bellicose yelling, misogyny and all I’ll take Trump, because Trump is a realist (most likely in the mould of Giuliani) and Cruz is an idealist.
Okay, never mind.
Your posts are typical of so many Trump fans. You have the fawning down pat, but you avoid direct questions and refuse to answer them.
Enjoy it while it lasts.
Congress is every bit to blame as much as ValJar and her puppet.

That’s exactly why Trump and Carson are gaining traction in the polls. Americans are fed up with our career, do-nothing, politicians.
We already had the perfect candidate (Ted Cruz) and now this moderate comes along and everyone’s forgotten all about him.

No, no, no. We have NOT forgotten about Ted Cruz. Donald Trump is the best thing that has happened to TC. They like each other. Trump is doing the “hatchet-job” on the Establishment in D.C., at this present time, leaving Cruz unscathed. He’s firing up people who are “fed-up” with do-nothing politicians. Trump will NOT be the nominee. People who like his message will choose Cruz in the end (because he is prolly more electable) and Trump will put his money and support behind Cruz in the General Election. Ted Cruz is brilliant. He knows that The Donald being in the race is to his advantage. TC is “laying low” letting Trump deliver his message for him and take the flack off of him. Would not surprise me if the two do not have an “unspoken” deal in the works (Cabinet position for Trump). Now, having said that.............
If Jeb Bush is the nominee, I guarantee you Trump will run as a Third Party candidate.... I’m taking bets.
Nope, not from Texas. Time will tell if he gets to the debates.
At this point, I'd think that the only way to stop that hostile army within our borders from voting our nation away is to divide and conquer. It doesn't make sense that hispanics accept themselves as part of one homogeneous group, all with the same goals. Anyone who is going to be successful is going to have to appeal to the best instincts of those who want to get ahead on their own merits, raise families, be able to become self-sufficient. They're going to have to be turned against the criminal, lazy element they're being lumped together with.
The Republicans are doing it all wrong, unless they're complicit. The mainstream 'pubs are doing things to appeal to all hispanics together, which is stereotyping and appealing to the lowest common denominator.
From a "me" standpoint, I find it appalling that banks are fined and the money is being used to finance groups that aim to destroy the US as we know it. I'd much rather that money be spent for interest on FDIC savings.
