Ted Cruz - Madam's List?

[GrouchoTex]

None taken @GrouchoTex   Sometimes I lose my sense of humor on these threads.

It's been a long strange day....

[catfish1957]

I have a list of his accomplishments but won't waste them on an NTer

Only an AT would find $3T trivial.

@catfish1957   Only a NT would find Trump personally responsible for the deficit.  It's been building for a long time.  And Trump has created a growing economy with a lot of job creation.

It is pretty damn easy to make the economy hum if you cut taxes and pour in trillions in borrowed/printed money.

It is unsustainable and we'll pay a heavy price for not cutting spending later.

So enjoy the party while it lasts.

And one more thing. The GOP is responsible for the extreme spending and Trump is the head of the GOP.

I am not blaming him for the first $19T, but the newly added $3T sure the hell is his.

Always an excuse.

Right behind "He's not Hillary"

A fair assessment.
It is the same one we have judged all others before him by.
Their term, their debt.

In one ear and out the other...
The principles of fiscal Conservatism mean nothing here.
A hardy few understand you, but the rest wouldn't admit it even if they could understand.

I've noticed that the MSM has been relatively quiet about the financial debacle a few thousand miles south of us.

Continued faith into a spiraling deficit driven fiat economy is a recipe for disaster.  The 95% of the country with their ostrich heads in the sand will not understand when it happens.

Worse than nothing, it is as despised and held in the same kind of contempt that your average liberal Leftist does, as well as the burgeoning hatred and ridicule flung by self-identifying Conservatives at those who actually espouse the principles that they will not surrender in order to accolade Trump.

As late as 20 years ago, the bedrock of conservatism was financial restraint via lower taxes and reduced government spending.  We now appear to be in the extreme minority.  Hate to be Doom and Gloom, but MAGA my ass.

@musiclady   It is considered good manners to name the person you are criticizing.  Who is 'SHE?'

The individual was pinged by me before I started this thread, and Myst was notified.

I also consider it "good manners" to not make unsubstantiated accusations on a public forum. I think we all can agree on that, right @Emjay ?

[jpsb]

Of course not.  All of the Trumpanian false accusations against Cruz is how Trump beat him; that, and Trump has a ton of money and dominated the press, etc.  However, that's in the past.  The main objective right now is to get Cruz re-elected. Hopefully Trump will man up and help this fine Senator.  IMHO, Trump owes him one.

Bull, Cruz ran the dirtiest campaign I ever saw. Lied his ass off and totally blew any chance he ever
had. He proved himself to be a lying scum bag. But even a lying scum bag is better then a Democrat
so I will be voting for Ted this nov.

[txradioguy]

with a lot of job creation.

The U6 unemployment rate and the jobs participation rate numbers would disagree with you.

[jpsb]

How in the HELL has he been decent? Start with 3T in spending in the last half year.

Blame the House of Representatives, all spending bills originate there. The president can't spend a
dime on his own.

Blame Bush for the deficit. Clinton gave Bush a balanced budget the Bush blew it. Obama gave
Trump trillions in debt. Let's see what Trump leaves to the next president.

“She “ has been referenced multiple times on this thread (and is the reason for this thread).

There didn’t seem to be a need to mention it again.

The point was that this is not referencing old news.

So, it's OK for TX to have a filthy liar for a Senator?  What happened to "drain the swamp?"

Like the myth about Ted Cruz running a dirty campaign...that was and is a lie as well.

If it is a runaway congress, his veto would have caused them to override and thus take the blame. But he signed it with a whimper. He owns it.

@jpsb

This is why conspiracy theories take off among some on the right.  We’re a gullible bunch (something I never knew before this election). 

Repeat something, and if those conservatives want to believe it, they will.  No amount of facts will budge them.

And there hasn't been a single word from any anti-Cruz poster to back up the spurious accusations with facts, has there?
