5 reasons Ted Cruz is even more dangerous than Donald Trump

Salon ^ | Jan 25, 2016 | Robert Reich

[justlittleoleme]

1. ..........Cruz is a fierce ideologue: He denies the existence of man-made climate change, rejects same-sex marriage, wants to abolish the Internal Revenue Service, believes the 2nd amendment guarantees everyone a right to guns, doesn’t believe in a constitutional divide between church and state, favors the death penalty, opposes international agreements, embraces a confrontational foreign policy, rejects immigration reform, demands the repeal of “every blessed word of Obamacare,” and takes a strict “originalist” view of the meaning of the Constitution.

I know, right. I was going through the list in #1 and thinking, “Check... check... check...”

[Colonel_Flagg]

News flash: liberal hates best conservative in the field.

[Vigilanteman]

Robert Reich: Malignant Dwarf

A valuable endorsement to go along with that of Jennifer Rubin.

[lexington minuteman 1775]

I love the way Rush pronounce’s Reich’s nammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmeeeeeee.

“[Cruz] opposes international agreements

Cruz voted for TPA and the Corker bill, two international agreements.

“[Cruz] rejects immigration reform”

Has repeatedly called for immigration reform.

“...and takes a strict “originalist” view of the meaning of the Constitution.”

Not necessarily.

[posterchild]

This has been the best endorsement of any candidate I’ve read all season.

[USNBandit]

None of these things attributed to Cruz are dangerous, except to the status quo. Dangerous would be releasing $150 billion to a terrorist state.

[bert]

marko Rubio, Robert Reiiiisch and Yasser Arafat walked into a bar.

Bidens exclaimed “stand up there Robert”

[Grampa Dave]

Oh look, shorty Reich is still an angry midget suffering from short man syndrome.

Hey Reich, go back to your doll house, be quiet and play with yourself.

[unixfox]

Both men would be disasters for America, but Cruz would be the larger disaster

That has a nice ring to it. Bring on the disaster. The bigger the better I say.

[kallisti]

yep, that little guy is razer-sharp.

[Biggirl]

Trump and Cruz need to end the divisions and team up to prevent either a Clinton or a Sanders from winning the WH.

[Califreak]

Do editors even exist anymore?

[duffee]

Yes, from Salon I take this as an endorsement and another reason to Support Senator Cruz. Just like Willie Robertsons Trump endorsement last night, I’m paraphrasing (Our Constitution was written a long time ago by old men and now we need a “deal maker”). Thank you Willie, another example of why we need Senator Cruz and not Trump.

[RasterMaster]

LIEberals and Uniparty establishment RINOs hate Cruz....I couldn’t find a better endorsement if I tried.

[TexasCajun]

Cruz has my vote.

Though he needs to send Beck packing.

[jackibutterfly]

"I love the way Rush pronounce's Reich's nammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmeeeeeee. ha ha"

I agree - everytime I hear Robert Reich, I hear it from Rush's lips. :-)!

[ScottinVA]

This is as good an endorsement for Cruz as he could hope for. If the little red hordes at Salon hate you... you’re doing something right.

GO CRUZ!

[Pelham]

“I figured the article would be from National Review...”

That will be in their next issue, ‘The Case Against Cruz’.

Of course Michael Medved has already been featuring that on his little GOPe propaganda show when he’s not attacking Trump.

Cruz is a fierce ideologue: He denies the existence of man-made climate change, rejects same-sex marriage, wants to abolish the Internal Revenue Service, believes the 2nd amendment guarantees everyone a right to guns, doesn't believe in a constitutional divide between church and state, favors the death penalty, opposes international agreements, embraces a confrontational foreign policy, rejects immigration reform, demands the repeal of "every blessed word of Obamacare," and takes a strict "originalist" view of the meaning of the Constitution

Sigh. The perfect candidate.
