Someone who went to a CLOSED DOOR GOP donors’ meeting taped Mulvaney who probably assumed that closed door meant confidential ... and whoever that coward is gave the tape to the NYT.

But what he spoke was truth. Cruz just isn’t likable, no matter how conservative he is. Whether that causes him to lose is another question. I would hope that Texans would overlook any personality defects in favor of policy positions, votes to support the POTUS, to keep a R majority in the Senate.

Well, that’s precisely how I feel about Trump. I find his personality to often be quite “unlikable” and irritating, but I enthusiastically support him because he has governed as the most conservative president we’ve ever had. I didn’t vote for him to win a personality contest, but to beat back the Dems. Hopefully, Cruz will do his part to do the same thing. I sure hope people in 2020 will overlook Trump’s obnoxiousness and vote for him because of all the good things his policies have achieved for the country.

That's pretty much the bottom line.

They were all out of charisma on the day Ted was born, so they gave him an extra helping of smarts.

I agree. Being likable shouldn’t matter. If anyone that professes to be the least patriotic would not vote for a commie or sit back and let said commie win just because their guy just isn’t likeable.
