Trump gave money across the board, he was not and is not a politician. No, I don’t like it but I accept it is the price of doing business in today’s political environment. Would Trump have even been allowed to play if he did not play by the rules of the power brokers, I think not. He worked within the existing system, he did not make the rules. But he beat the hell out of them and became a billionaire. When was the last time conservatives had a win of any kind? All the government shutdowns and threats of shutdowns have produced nothing but more losses. Sure, this is due mostly to the gope leadership. But Cruz is part of that gope ledership as evidenced by his votes for TPA and the corker bill. Both of these issues are directly in contradiction to everything Cruz says he stands for. And yet when push came to shove, Cruz voted the way the gope told him to. These are not nitpickey little things, these have the real probability of destroying us as well as other countries. What will happen when he is the president and the gope leans on him?
Cruz did not vote the way the GOPe told him to. He had his own reasons for his votes. And he did not vote for the final TPA.
Tell the GOPe leadership that Cruz is part of them. That would give them a good laugh.
Boehner’s resignation is a result of Cruz’ shutdown on Obamacare. That’s a win. If Cruz never gave the GOPe a real fight, Boehner would simply not be resigning now.
