Why hasn’t Hannity or O’Reilly interviewed Sessions?

I was for Cruz. I realized the anti establishment was just an act. He is nothing more than a whore politician. Wonder what his price was? Supreme Court?

He could have fallen for the chameleon liberal who masquerades as a conservative. You know, the guy that votes for TPA, Corker amendment, 500% increase in H1Bs and is a fully owned subsidiary of Goldman Sachs.

No Senator has fought the establishment more than Cruz; consequently "nobody likes him" per DT.

Hahahahahaaaa! Poor Teddy Bares are wailing and gnashing teeth! Teddy is a LYING LOSER LAWYER! Teddy promised to work hard as Senator, yet continues to spend most of his time campaigning (AND LOSING!)! Here are examples of his LOSING record as a private attorney!

After leaving the Solicitor General position in 2008, Cruz worked in a private law firm in Houston, Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP, often representing corporate clients, until he was sworn in as U.S. Senator from Texas in 2013. At Morgan Lewis, he led the firm’s U.S. Supreme Court and national appellate litigation practice. In 2009 and 2010, he formed and then abandoned a bid for state attorney general when the incumbent Attorney General Greg Abbott, who hired Cruz as Solicitor General, decided to run for re-election.

While at Morgan, Lewis, & Bockius, Cruz represented Pfizer in a lawsuit brought by a group of public hospitals and community health centers who accused the drug manufacturer of overcharging. The Supreme Court eventually threw the case out. Shandong Linglong Rubber Company was found guilty of marketing versions of tires that were based on blueprints stolen by a former employee of a Florida businessman and ordered to pay $26 million to the Floridian. Cruz worked on the Chinese company's appellant brief. The appeals court denied the appeal and affirmed the jury's award. Cruz represented drug manufacturer B. Braun Medical Inc. in front of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 6th Circuit after the company was found guilty of wrongfully discharging a former employee. Cruz asserted that she had failed to prove that B. Braun had directed her to violate the law and that she had not presented sufficient evidence that her refusal to violate the law was why she had been fired. The appeals court rejected Cruz's argument and affirmed the $880,000 award. Cruz represented Toyota in an appeal to the Texas Supreme Court in an statute of limitations case, where a judge wanted to investigate Toyota for contempt after a former Toyota in-house lawyer accused Toyota of unlawfully withholding documents in a product liability case. Cruz unsuccessfully argued the judge's jurisdiction expired thirty days after the case was dismissed following an out-of-court settlement, but later won on a second appeal using the same argument. ...

<<TPP and amnesty <<

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

That’s right.

It makes me sick that so many Americans fail to understand the nation is being systematically dismantled by these “Free trade” treaties.

Also, there is the deep graft of government procurement. Between pharmaceutical drugs and military waste that Trump has already specified (like F-35 forced on Pentagon by politicians) he has already identified $Trillions. And that probably took about a day or two, with no great staff effort that he would have as POTUS.

Because it is that important. It has to be neglected.

I am being too simplistic? Really?? I am not the one supporting the Candidate with a 3rd grade approach to what ails America. Cave quid vis from those promising the world for you will be sorely disappointed!

Sessions has discounted himself forever for the sake of the current polls.

Yeah, I spent some time with DeLay at CPAC some years back.

He and I were in an Elevator when four Gorgeous Virgin Airlines Flight Attendants got on (the Elevator) and we had a wonderful time for about three minutes.

He is much shorter than I am, so he had a much better view.

I have no idea what that has to do with him endorsing Cruz though. Just reminded me of the good old days. #;^)

Very true. The establishment never dreamed their days at the trough might end and they are in full panic mode.

They think Sessions has lost it - when they are the ones going bananas and acting like idiots as they try to trash the un-trashable. One guy try to tell us that when we back Trump we back everything we have stood against for as long as we've been around - while ignoring that the tactics of "Fake but true" are also something we deride as an obscene example of how the Left works - while trying it over and over again in an attempt to make something stick to Trump...

Pogo was right - we met him right here on FR....

You're in luck! There's no way I could ever vote for Hillary no matter how badly you make me want to.

Keep working it jackpot!

Biggest Blackout I’ve ever seen of such an important endorsement.

I think this has to do with money — big money, probably trillions. If Trump is self-financed, and beholden to no one, a Trump presidency could be a game changer.

Trillions? Please. A hack like Joe Scarborough can be bought for 250k and a parking space.

I think that with the possible exception of Hannity that talk radio hosts are nursing a lot of Trump butt hurt.
