Tea Party now lists Senator Cruz as a RINO

[Hat In Ring]

Try citing someone  else as a 'source', not the website linked under your avatar.

Sure, I guess I'm not smart enough and need a source to tell me what my thoughts should be. How bout the rag sites, "Red State" or "National Review". Maybe they can make up my mind so others will accept my writings as feasible. 

OK, here's 6699 sources I refer to. Maybe listening to thousands upon thousands of people isn't a good enough source? You have to sign into your Facebook account to see them. The group belongs to me and all my sources are true Trump supporters. I would have over 50 thousand members but I kick out all the commie democrats, foreigners and never Trump libertarians. I do have many libertarians in the group that dumped the libertarian party when they found out myself and my buds had more of the values they liked then the libertarians that preach they have the values.

Maybe all those people at Trump rallies I listen to don't have any first hand knowledge and need a rag news web site to source also? I guess all of us dumb people have to be attached to some news web site before we can write anything because we cannot think and figure out anything ourselves.

Were you asleep from January of 1981 through January of 1989?

I keep hearing Ronald Reagan is a conservative icon @txradioguy  when actually Ronald Reagan was an American right-leaning populist.  He believed in American greatness, freedom, the American dream, the flag, the military, and our constitution.  He made us proud to be Americans again.

Reagan wasn't afraid to use a tariff when it protected American workers or ignore deficit spending, especially for military preparedness.  He compromised on illegal immigration  and---please, correct me if I'm wrong--spoke eloquently of pro-life opinions without putting pen to paper signing either an EO or legislation protecting the unborn during his eight years in the oval office.

What was the conservative accomplishment that keeps Reagan the one to beat for conservatives -- you know,  the principled ones?

What am I missing about Ronald Reagan?

Putting aside your issues with Cruz (remember, I’m neutral), I am intrigued by your idea that libertarians might be (are) sneaking candidates into the party right under the RNC’s nose without them sounding the alarm. Unless that’s your role? So, how do that work? Expound. I’m listening.

To Keep This Short,

"William F. Buckley" the founder of the "National Review" was basically a conservative back in 1955 and gained some popularity in the Republican party even though he was libertarian. Then over the decades after that the communists started taking over the democrat party after John F. Kennedy was shot by the communist. The more conservative democrats called "The Blue Dog Democrats" were being evicted slowly but surely and the eviction was finally complete in the late 1990's.

The democrats that were evicted from the democrat party started politicking in "William F. Buckleys" libertarian party and so the name, "Neo Con (Neo Conservative)" came to be meaning democrats in another party with conservative views. The libertarian party is filled with conservative democrats that can't make it in the democrat party.

Since the libertarians have some conservative values in the 1980's the dumb Republicans invited them in thinking the libertarians would be a voter boost and at first there may have been a boost but now the libertarians inside the Republican party will NOT vote for any Republican candidate. They only vote for candidates like "Rand Paul", "Ted Cruz" and other know libertarians that were elected under the Republican banner.

Libertarians cannot win running under their own banner and vote for some democrat issues because they hold some democrat values in the Republican Party like Mitt Romney. Mitt Romney is a libertarian without any doubt. Once they are elected under the Republican banner the libertarians will only vote for them and ignore all the good Republican candidates.

This is all true and comes from many hours of personal research.

@Hat In Ring

Just because you've regurgitated the Stone/Pecker 2016 slime narrative of the primaries , makes you have proof that Cruz is not a conservative?   Funny, you have not cited one bit of proof of that assertion.   Hate to tell you, but you are in a population of about .001% who believes that kind of crap. 
Apparently,  you have not studied, tallied, or analyzed Cruz' near 400 votes since 2013 to really give a objective analysis of his record.

Here is a little help.  This is ACU's ranking of Cruz every year he has been in a senate, where 1st is most conservative and 50th least.

2013- 1st
2014- 1st
2015- 1st
2016- 1st
2017- 2nd
2018- 4th
2019- 2nd



So, please stop (1) with the bullshit that Cruz is a libertarian, (2) spewing rhetoric which just makes former Cruz supporters remember and angrier over the 2016 smears.  Do you want to help Trump?  You sure aren't doing it by pissing off people who like and support the senator.   I don't know if you are neophyte when it comes to politics, but the 2016 Trump - Cruz battle was a huge schism within the party, and those scars are still healing.  If you aren't smart enough to realize you are sabotaging Trump's efforts, then I don't think there is much hope for you.

I am coming to conclusion that you are a disruptor with ulterior. motives.  I think you are here to damage the POTUS.

Perhaps he felt he was going to dazzle us with his brilliance and knowledge but certainly my assessment is quite the opposite.  He's written a blog and has supposedly done some research.  I asked a couple of questions which never got answered other than him posting a cartoon.  What does that tell you?

This will be my last post on this topic. Not worth the time.

Great place for him.

@Hat In Ring

Is that the best you got?  No one ever doubted the fact that Trump has far superior skills in generating a crowd of supporters.  But what does that have to do with Cruz and his "Libertarianistic" political leanings?  When presented an arugument you juke and spin, not respond with facts or sound counters.  I think you've deemed yours into a new category......   A Klog.   A Kook with a Blog. 

Bottom line, I find it extermely strange and puzzling that you have gone to such lengths and trouble to smear a good conservative like Cruz, when there are countless despicable liberals out there.  Have you heard of people like Biden, Sanders, AOC, Pelosi, and on and on and on and on.  Where are your blog entries heralding their crimes? 

'Cause.I gotta tell you, if your intent is to help President Trump, attacking a primary opponent from 4 years ago, is a losing strategy.

Is this the best I have, "No" but the libertarians here are sure aroused by it.

Wow! I'm impressed now. Really! You finally admitted Ted Cruz has Libertarianistic politicle leanings.

The clique of group think here surely thinks that I'm hurting Donald Trump but it only goes to show they don't read well since Ted Cruz lost big time that lead to Donald Trump's victory.

As for the best I have? I can flood this forum with hard core Trump supporters. I know there are already Trump supporters here but I can amplify that somewhat. You may not be a Facebook supporter but that's where the Trump supporters are. They just need to know about the membership makeup here and that they will be taken care of when they join.

The Trump supporters do not like to deal with the backlash I'm getting here. On Facebook it's really easy to block out personalities that conflict with yours. This forum is on really old script with no blocking or ignore function so the Trump supporters wouldn't be comfortable here unless they were supported properly.

I don't go on forums and websites without the blocking function but since a copy/pasted segment of one of my posts was posted here to start this thread I decided I will have to waste my time defending myself against unwanted aggression by fools and idiots. NO, this isn't the first time I've been through this. I'm very experienced. I just get tired of it as all Trump supporters do.

In my Facebook group I vet the people before they get in and you can believe that all 6699 members are solid hard core Trump supporters that like the fact they don't have to put up with the "Never Trump Libertarians" and "Commie Democrats".

I like being amongst non libertarian "Tea Party People" but when I have to I can mop up the floor with these libertarians and democrats.

@Hat In Ring

Let me give you a little history lesson sonny.  "The (modern)  TEA PARTY" was a brainchild of conservative Chicago Mercantile Trader Rick Santelli, who led a rant against new Obama stimulus initiatives in February 2009.  It was born in the concept of fiscal conservative government policy.  Something your faction is oblivious too.  Kooks like you have hijacked the Tea Party movement, and are a freakin' joke.  I kid you not......You f'ers are absolute method actors for "The Onion"

Here is another set of facts for you and (coug cough) Kiddie Corp Tea-Cuppers . The following is a contribution of each president towards the national debt, after it reaches $30T this year.  Numbers cited are in $Trillions.    https://www.marketwatch.com/story/how-much-each-us-president-has-contributed-to-the-national-debt-2018-10-29

And don't forget....   Trump did this in only 4 years

Trump- 13.7
Obama- 8.6
G.W. Bush- 5.9
Clinton- 1.4
G.H.W. Bush- 1.6
Reagan- 1.9
Carter- 0.3
Ford- 0.2
Nixon- 0.1

So don't give me this Tea Party song and dance around Trump.  And now you are calling people like Cruz and Buckley Libertarians?  Do you like people laughing at you? 

And last....Your last ridiculous post came across as a veiled threat.  I seriously doubt there are 6698 nutjobs who share your warped thinking.  You know, I could throw a few facts of how Trump wrote checks supporting the Clintons, made pro-choice comments, and used to be a registered democrat not that long ago.  But I prefer taking the high road, and support this POTUS for re-election in a conservative-populist coalition.  Because we at TBR want to defeat Biden, and the other enemy dimocrats, not smear good solid conservative legislators. 

You OTOH, prefer to stir shit, bringing up old debunked accusations, and making absurd statements.  In any case, I've wasted too much time already responding to your silliness. 
 

[Cyber Liberty]

I don't.

I'm disappointed. Do you think we don't have free speech?  Bear in mind, it's never totally "free," we do have rules against personal attacks and trolling.  Is your speech restricted, beyond those rules?  Or are you being a Karen for someone else you think needs a voice, but for whatever reason doesn't speak up?

I assume you've been on Bookface for a while, so you figure it out.

This forum is on really old script with no blocking or ignore function so the Trump supporters wouldn't be comfortable here unless they were supported properly.

Are you too lazy to figure out the Ignore system?  The software may have its issues, but that's no excuse for not seeing it in the Profile settings.  If you feel the need, and still can't figure it out, let me know and I'll show you what everybody else here who felt the need knows.

I don't go on forums and websites without the blocking function but since a copy/pasted segment of one of my posts was posted here to start this thread I decided I will have to waste my time defending myself against unwanted aggression by fools and idiots.

OK, so are you saying your entire purpose for signing up is to "mop up the floor" with people you don't like?  Two things, Scooter:  You failed when the Members expertly pwned you, and secondly you are not welcome here if that is to be your function.  I deal with enough internet trolls as it is without your presence. 

Thanks for slumming at TBR.

The True Scotsman is easy to find and identify. He is the REALLY big guy shouting drunken threats at anyone close enough to shout at,and he has an accent thick enough to cut with a battle axe.

His little brothers are called "The Irish".

@catfish1957 you notice he comes back again with deceptive editing in the furtherance of his propaganda/smear campaign?

That’s a rally for a Trump that’s recent...since he was President. The Cruz pic is typical of what you’d see during a primary when a candidate is speaking to small groups in every town you can hit in a state.

He thinks we’re stupid.
