Despite laying low in the presidential election, Ted Cruz has been active in promoting and supporting conservatives in and running for Congress. At the same time, the GOP Establishment has been seeking out these conservatives and targeting them, with groups like the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and other liberal Republican PACs dropping as much money as they can in advertising against them.
One of those conservatives was Tim Huelskamp of Kansas, who lost his re-election bid recently. Another is Arizona conservative and House Freedom Caucus member Paul Gosar. Here's what Cruz said this morning in his endorsement of Gosar.
