You’re just another fake news troll!

Cruz has been Trump’s strongest ally in the senate, and was the source of Trump’s Rust Belt win in the Nov. ‘16 election. (at his own expense)

Troll on fool.

I don’t care for their appearance either. I will admit to being somewhat dismayed when I see the opposition’s signs and bumper stickers everywhere, but never see one for my own candidate.

It doesn’t change my mind. It just seems like somehow my candidate is being under-represented.

Jeff Roe, still with Cruz after his terrible guidance and strategy in 2015-16, is best using a knife in the back of someone. Cruz is stupid to have continued with Roe.

I think Cruz will win, but Roe will hardly deserve any credit.

No joke!

If they break out the windows of your car, its likely that the insurance co. will total it. I’ve had it happen.

Cruz ... was the source of Trump’s Rust Belt win in the Nov. ‘16 election.

Delusional much?

Yes, you are!

For trolls, some wounds never heal.

Texas Republicans are trying to use Beto’s punk rock days against him

The Texas GOP tried to make Beto O’Rourke look like a drunk punk kid. It backfired.

An old mugshot and photos from the punk rocker past of Rep. Beto O’Rourke, the Texas Democrat making a long-shot bid to unseat Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), are flying around on social media — thanks to the Texas Republican Party.

The official Texas GOP account began circulating a photo of 20-something O’Rourke, with a voluminous head of hair and cool-kid stare, trying to paint O’Rourke as an immature drunk and former-criminal punk rocker.

O’Rourke was arrested twice, but not convicted, in his 20s; a 1995 misdemeanor arrest for jumping a fence at University of Texas at El Paso campus — filed as a burglary — and a 1998 misdemeanor drunken-driving arrest in El Paso.

The excuse for the photo? O’Rourke has said a debate with Cruz this Friday isn’t happening. One tweet implied O’Rourke was too drunk to debate the sitting Republican. A second tweet asked if O’Rourke was skipping the debate for music “gig.” Another featured a recent photo with O’Rourke and a skate board.
