Border Patrol union endorses Ted Cruz for Senate

The National Border Patrol Council endorsed Senator Ted Cruz for U.S. Senate Tuesday while the senator campaigned in Edinburg, Texas.

Introducing Cruz as a “true friend of the border patrol,” union president Brandon Judd said he hoped Cruz would someday be “future President Ted Cruz.”

Judd claimed that the union does not seek out candidates to endorse, preferring that candidates come to them, but noted that Cruz is the exception.

“Senator Ted Cruz is the only person that we’ve ever reached out to and said, ‘You are who we want, you have the morals, you have the ethics, you can bring true change to this country, you can secure the border,'” Judd said...........

...........“I am deeply humbled to have the endorsement and have the support of the National Border Patrol Council,” Cruz said. “When heroes stand with you, it’s a powerful thing.”..........

Nice going Ted. Now you've lost the illegal alien vote.

[Free Vulcan]

This is good.

[corbe]

   Cruz will get 5% more if Trump tweets to Texans for them to 'vote their conscience'.

[Frank Cannon]

This is good.

Yeah, but Beto Shlomo Rastus Eveline Mandingo O'Rourke got the endorsement of Equality Texas. That's good for 6 or 7 votes in Texas.

Just think if we had someone like this in the White House.

Border Patrol Union endorsed Trump. Big deal about this article, they endorse Republicans and certainly would not be endorsing Beto.

"...the group made its first presidential endorsement for Republican nominee Donald Trump, who later became the 45th President of the United States.[1]"

But you sure can't deny the truth, that Cruz has done a lot against illegal immigration and to stop chain migration.

[TomSea]

touting Trump in a letter as a break from "the perfect Washington-approved tone."
"We need a person in the White House who doesn't fear the media, who doesn't embrace political correctness, who doesn't need the money, who is familiar with success, who won't bow to foreign dictators, who is pro-military and values law enforcement, and who is angry for America and NOT subservient to the interests of other nations. Donald Trump is such a man," the union said.

"Mr. Trump will take on special interests and embrace the ideas of rank-and-file Border Patrol agents rather than listening to the management yes-men who say whatever they are programmed to say. This is a refreshing change that we have not seen before -- and may never see again,

The quote from the article too, in context, may only apply to a state race. Geesh.

Beto O'Rourke will get 5% more votes if the Cruz campaign falsely accuses him of saying "there aren't many answers in the Bible"... or says that O'Rourke is dropping out early.

Maybe Cruz knows some pecker that will run an ad about how O’Rourke’s dad killed JFK. That’s always an option, because history shows that a scary amount of people will believe a lie some pecker tells them.

This is a refreshing change that we have not seen before — and may never see again,” the National Border Patrol Council said in a statement posted Wednesday on its website. The endorsement was reported by the Government Executive website.

And he wouldn't send our military to the border unarmed.

Personal morality has never been correlated with how a president carries out his responsibilities of office nor to his wisdom in applying the correct actions to benefit the American people.

Examples, Bill Clinton. Personally immoral, yet his actions in office benefited society, such as welfare reform and balanced budgets that resulted in strong economic growth of around 4% annually. George W, a personally moral man, yet he ran yearly budget deficits and increased debt 100% and also oversaw the formation of massive bureaucracies that added to the permanent government (ie. Deep State).

So for a President who cannot be believed or cannot be trusted, you see no impediments there to him carrying out his responsibilities of office?

Examples, Bill Clinton. Personally immoral, yet his actions in office benefited society, such as welfare reform .  .  .

Bill Clinton vetoed welfare reform twice before reluctantly signing a veto-proof bill.  The remainder of his Presidency was spent trying to dismantle that reform one piece at a time.

.  .  .  and balanced budgets  .  .  .

Bill Clinton never balanced the budget.

.  .  .  that resulted in strong economic growth of around 4% annually.

Any claims of economic growth cannot be attributed to a balanced budget that never happened.

It is precisely this type of bullsh*t that you have posted here that demonstrates to others why integrity matters.

Let me guess.  You voted for Clinton twice, and then voted for Gore in 2000 and Kerry in 2004.

Wow...Clinton being defended on a Conservative board and falsely give credit for what the Republican controlled Congress...not to mention continued success from Reagan's economic policies did for the country. 

Never thought I'd see the day.

How pathetic.

[TomSea]

Even Cruz's recent mailer warned readers of the "resistance" and that largely means the Trump resistance, though I expect no honesty from some on this matter. Cruz has been supportive of Trump, they have similar views. Those who are out to clobber Trump on immigration (notice the Democrats did not like that deal) or even Planned Parenthood refuse to acknowledge facts such as the defunding of PP stalled in the Senate, the administration vowed to sign the bill. As for immigration, you can't point to anything more than words per Cruz's view. These people are not even worth engaging in honest debate about.

I generally don’t respond to posts that impugn me rather than addressing my comments, but I’ll make a exception here to say: you don’t know me very well, do you?

Have a “Make America Great Again” day.

Help refresh my memory @aligncare   ..  Didn't @Hoodat moderate the "Sanders for President" section here during the election?
