Does not surprise me. Cruz is a globalist and a corporatist. It is compatible with Dominionism as far s I can tell.

These people are clever. Their agenda is NOT for the common good, but for themselves and their fellow greedies. Oh, they may subjectively tell themselves it is good for all, but deep down they should have a twinge of conscience. It is not a good thing to take to oneself power and money at great expense to ones neighbors.


But, But...he’s a CONSERVATIVE! He’s a REAL conservative!

I’ll wager good old El Rushbo will completely ignore this. It doesn’t fit his bogus narrative of Cruz being “the only principled conservative.”

Ignore it? Rush won't even see it. He's become as low info as the slackers in Rio Linda.

It's why he spouts such nonsense and hype about Cruz. He doesn't have a goddamned clue.

And that is not what his comment was. Mischaracterising his comments is useless. Trump said he gets information from lots of people that he will name when he thinks the time is right. Good for him

Wasn't that the insider game plan?

A Republican neocon to run against Hillary Clinton, a Democrat neocon.

That way the election fix is in.

Trump brought out the wrath by screwing up the plan.

Did you bother to read the part about Trump’s choices? No different. All CFR.

Why would you want Jeff Sessions as a National Security Advisor? He has been on the Armed Services Committee, but that isn’t really the experience you need for foreign affairs.

I don’t think they did, but I’m sure they will tell you those are the “good” CFR non-neocon guys.

Why does Sarah support Trump when all the people on his list are -gasp- stinkin’ CFR?

Are we now to add Andrew McCarthy to the list of unimpeachable conservatives who must be made wrong for Donald Trump to be right?

So I guess we’re not allowed to have people with national experience then?

That's just it. Who are you going to hire who has a frigging clue as to what is going on (IOW, has the clearances to even know), without stepping in the CFR pool somewhere? I mean, if Chelsea Clinton is a member, (what did she do?), it has to be pretty easy get in, provided you have connections, and Washington advancement is all about connections. No one goes anywhere without them, and no one gets in a position to know what is going on if you don't advance.

National Security is not the place for total nOObs.

We? Who is we?
You keep saying “establishment”. I do not think you know what that means...
It means Ted Cruz is and always has been establishment...The whole "outsider" thing was/is just another Cruz lie...

You don’t want the people who’ve been there forever for your trade, commerce, and purchasing facing positions. That is the Washington Cartel he is warning about.

You DO want the people who’ve been there forever for your national security positions.
