Every minute Cruz stays in the race, he’s forcing Trump to fight a two-front war.

In case nobody has noticed, Hillary has shifted into General Election mode (and not against Cruz). She knows who her opponent is going to be.

It’s time for Cruz (and Kasich) to grow up, bow out and endorse Trump. This crap has gone on long enough.


Well said

It’s NOT about anyone but Cruz, he would sell his own wife and kids if need be.

The idea that he’s a loon who thinks he’s ordained by God to become President seems to fit the facts of his political career. Sure, there can be other explanations but the narcissistic one fits the observed behaviors of El Supremo Cruzo.

Now Molly Ball is credible here?

Never heard of her. The only question: Is what she wrote truthful or untruthful?

Cruz has been at the highest levels of thew GOPe for almost two decades and his wife has also. He has worked at high levels of the gubmint for the vast majority of his adult life. I think the animosity between Cruz and his fellow GOPe members is because of a couple of reasons, the main one being he is simply an insufferable a-hole who people hate. I think the other reason is because Ted Cruz is too personally ambitious and committed the GOPe sin of not patiently waiting his turn. The fact is that Calgary Ted lies a lot. Cruz lied to the people of Texas in 2012 when he failed to mention that he was still a NBC Canadian citizen while running for the Senate. In my view, Cruz lied about wanting to be a Senator in the first place. Much like BHO, his fellow Harvard Law Alum and fellow ex-editor of the Harvard Law Review, Cruz was in Iowa running for president less than one year after being sworn into the Senate. Cruz lied about cashing in the family savings to run for the Senate when he actually got loans from Goldman Sachs and Citibank to finance his campaign. He is still refusing to disclose the terms of those loans to the FEC.

He lied when he told an audience in New Hampshire that his family lost their health insurance earlier this year because of Obamacare and had to later admit they did not.
http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/ted-cruz-health-insurance-questions. There is a youtube video out of Cruz lying about Trump 6 times in 4 minutes during a speech. There are many other examples of Lyin’ Ted lying but I do not feel like looking anymore right now.

You weren’t looking anyway. How many you tube hit pieces do you think you could find on Trump if you just honestly searched? My objection is to anyone who just blindly parrots their masters voice, whether it is Trump, Cruz, Kasich, Clinton or Sanders. But go ahead and do that. I doubt that many will listen. My point is, why don’t you try to highlight the qualities of your candidate instead of using 4th grade locker room talk? How about a positive look for a change. It might set you free.

I don’t have any maters. Why don’t you just go out back and play hide and go screw yourself?

I went to bat with someone over this issue months ago.
They claimed that there was a flood of newbies for Trump but I actually had been keeping track, out of sheer curiosity, and proved (via email) that the new cruz supporters outnumbered the new Trump supporters.

Just sayin’
