I watched the FOX interview!

See it for yourself and hear the guy whine about how he can't have his nine year old son listen to Trump or that Trump is abusive to women!

Stop living in denial!

I don’t care how “conservative” he was. If he was a never Trump retard, he’s going the way of the dinosaurs.

Someone isn’t a conservative for life and gets a gold watch after 50 years. It’s a series of choices. He choose poorly.

I’ll say it again, yes I voted for Cruz in the FL primary, and was disappointed that Dr. Carson didn’t get more traction than he did. Trump won the nomination, SO BE IT! When Bill Clinton ran in 1992, Dennis Praeger warned that when you vote for a pres, you’re also voting for their rolodex (or contact list, to update things). We have a choice between a brilliant egomaniac and a pathological liar who surrounds herself with absolute scumbags. That plus the inevitable upcoming Lower Courts and SCOTUS vacancies is all the more reason I’m voting for the brilliant egomaniac!

I'm wondering if Trump have anything to say about this guy?

If the voters turned on him without Trump "siccing" them on him, it would be very remarkable, providing there were no other reason for dumping him other than his Trump statements.

It would mean that Trump has galvanized a group of loyal voters who are now punishing critics. This is a real WOW moment in this cycle.

Once the race was down to Trump vs Clinton, did Huelskamp back Trump?

He wasn't a true conservative, he was a self-righteous religious prig like Cruz.
bears repeating....

You stop living in denial. July comes after May. Huelskamp supports Trump now.

And look at this

They aren’t as powerful as the person elected or running for President. If they are trying to oust the freedom caucus that’s not good.

I’m asking if anyone has info on that.

Yes, let’s celebrate that a solid conservative was defeated by a candidate backed the establishment.

A solid conservative who opposes the most conservative platform and nominee since Ronald Reagan?

LOL. Take your NeverTrump butthurt and shove it, in such a way that your butthurt increases.

And don't forget, you'll be voting for Trump in November. Unless you'd prefer Hillary.

Vote Trump!

The big news here is the incumbent was leading by 14% mid July, lost by about the same. A huge swing. The electorate is enraged. Bodes very well for Trump.

Yes, it is bad when a conservative has to be taken down.

I wished he had gotten behind Trump earlier and hadn't attacked him on Fox!

Your so called conservatives have achieved nothing.

No wall.
Illegals flooding in.
Obamacare funded.
Food stamps increased.
National debt growing every year.
Military weaker than going back decades.
Taxes as high as ever.
Abortions galore.

Conservatives in congress are all talk and NO RESULTS.
And most are in pockets of their sugar daddies.

I am so ready for a patriotic nationalist.

BTW, your tagline seems to be out of date. Only an incorrigible Ted Cruz fanboy would still be touting "Cruz 2016"...

Vote Trump!

What did they do that they promised?

We gave the GOP the largest majority they have had since the 1920's and they haven't done anything!

You worked for Heuslkamp.....from Texas; did ya ?

Look, you are the smarmy, nasty, CINO. Just get over yourself! Your idea of a "Conservative" is so far to the right it's in the NUTSO league.

I know he lost several supporters after that. That also probably hurt him.
