I strongly prefer Cruz over Trump, and one of the reasons is that Cruz puts the interests of the country before himself.

I think you’re forgetting something.

Trump has plenty of money to retire and enjoy life. He doesn’t have to go through this process.

I think you’re selling him short if you think he doesn’t rank the nation rather high up in his priorities.

Me too. Cruz adheres to the Constitution, speaks about it often, uses language that refers to it and when he discusses or talks about issues in interviews or speeches, talks about the proper branches of govt and how they should operate. He also is a Godly man.

As for Trump, I’ve never heard him say anything about the Constitution, let alone even say anything in relation to it, save the 14th amendment issue. I worry, since a lot of what he says comes from a background of progressive big govt ideals, what he means when he talks about things HE will do. Will he do them by EO, like Obama, like a dictator, or will he follow the proper procedure, like a Constitutional president? As well, we all know how knowledgable he is on the Bible, and I for one, don’t believe he’s that Godly of a man. He sure doesn’t portray a man, who rests his purpose in Gods terms, in Gods plan, or what God intends. He’s prideful, arrogant, narcissistic and pretty much thinks he is God. That bothers me a lot, especially, after enduring the last 6 years of The One. Ugh...

That said, I’m sure Cruz being a man of character, would not tie his cart to someone he wouldn’t trust. And considering Cruz is playing chess, while everyone else is playing checkers, I think this move is a great way to bring attention to the Iran deal, get the media talking about it, get people on board with what it’s about and as well, makes him look good and gives him attention, too. Honestly, I think that’s gravy for a man like Ted Cruz, as he does seem to put country and what’s right, before himself.

So, God willing, this collaboration is the beginning of a great movement, for all involved.

You realize that the Iran deal would not even be an issue if every single Senator save Senator Tom Cotton had not voted for the Cochran bill, right?
