In what can only be noted as “typically Cruzian†the Senator who sponsored the “Renewable Fuel Standard Repeal Actâ€, which would have immediately repealed the ethanol mandate, has now reversed course and claims to support continued Iowa Corn Subsidies.
The pandering flip-flop becomes “brutally Cruzian†when the campaign for Ted Cruz denies the current change in position by pointing to a prior change in position; saying, in effect: when Senator Ted Cruz decided to run for President he changed his position, and in 2014 supported a five year phase out of the Renewable Fuel Standard.
So candidate Cruz was against Iowa corn subsidy, 2013; then became for Iowa corn subsidy (with phase out), 2014, and now advocates on behalf of corn subsidy in 2016.
Just like Senator Cruz’s advocacy for the Corker/Cardin amendment (Iran Deal); and just like Senator Cruz’s advocacy for Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) within the Trans-Pacific Trade Deal; Ted Cruz is for them, until he becomes against them – only when the consideration of “them†is determined by the general approval of the electorate.
This was debunked yesterday. The reporter even posted a retraction. Cruz has the same position now as he did in 2014 when he sponsored legislation to phase out ethanol subsidies and mandates over 5 years. He hasn’t changed his position at all.
The reporter misunderstood and admitted it.
Repeat a lie often enough and loud enough....
thanks
Already debunked. You live up to your screen name.
Any seeming inconsistencies and perturbations with Cruz’s stances certainly are caused by imperfections in the English language, not in his stances.
ConJobTrumpHouse in full taqiyya mode.
This is a bebunked lie. You should have this pulled.
Yeah I quit wasting my time on him a while back.
Already posted at least twice and debunked twice more.
The Treehouse has devolved into a Trump fan site. They still do some good work on other stories, but nothing Sundance says about this election can be taken seriously. He’s incapable of saying anything even slightly critical of Donald Trump. He’s basically a sycophant at this point.
Was he lying then or is he lying now?
Heaven forfend sycophantic spam during an election. Someone should do a polka dot graph to handle that.
Typical Cruz. He will say anything, anytime in order to court votes. He is truly a conservative imposter and a typical politician. He is a Harvard educated Lawyer and has a wife who works for Goldman Sachs as a Hedge Fund Analyst. His biggest donors are Trial Lawyers and Wall Street. That should tell you everything.
The headline and article is a barefaced lie.
These Trumpophiles are reminding me more every day for the Paulbots(Ron) of old.
Snarky weasels that care little for decorum and even less for the facts.
Typical Trumpster.
Since it’s been debunked over and over that leaves 1 of 2 possibilities.
You’re too ignorant to know it’s been debunked or you know it’s been debunked and are just too stupid to care so you continue to repeat the lie.
Damn. I thought it was just the Liberals who resorted to name calling when they didn’t like what they hear. Sorry you have crawled into their space. Have a good day !
These Trumpophiles are reminding me more every day for the Paulbots(Ron) of old.Look in a mirror when you say that...hypocrite.Snarky weasels that care little for decorum and even less for the facts.
