What kind of man just accepts the comments Trump made about his family then begs his support? I guarantee the vast majority of members on this board would be right up in the face of another person that said something like that about someone close to them. Ted Cruz is one of the biggest b****es I've ever seen.
True....scary, though, that I am skeptical that Beto will win. I live in the burbs (far west Katy) and my neighborhood FB page is rife with Beto hate. It’s depressing. Nobody seems to care about the character of the cadidate, just the letter to the right of their name. edit - if he does win, I will take several days of vacation to celebrate as I do feel like he is the real deal and that this will be a springboard to better days, even for those that did not vote for him.
It seems like your neighborhood cares about the issues and doesn't want a far leftist representing them. I know, Shocking.
That so few Texas Republicans, including approximately 100% on this message board, have no problem with this just shows what complete b**** boys they've become. I mean, Jesus Christ, having a ******* backbone and standing up for family are bedrock Texas values that I grew up with. At least, I used to think they were.
Spew your bs if you will as, oddly enough, Cruz is running off of falsehoods and barbq bans. No one is more full of **** than you and Cruz. No one.
Beto who I thought was a moderate is running on banning AR-15's and calling cops "the new Jim Crow" Cruz is going to have a field day with this tomorrow.
Maybe the Dems should run a candidate that more closely aligns with Texas values, than Beto "Happy Hour" O'Rouke.
All policy aside. I wish conservatives would at least admit that The way Beto is raising money is a positive, compared to what Cruz is doing. It won’t change anything to admit that. Agree that is a good thing among everyone would perhaps go towards getting money out of politics.
What? If you want to get money out of politics what difference does it matter how they raise it? I do think for a TEXAS election, all the money should come from Texas only. If you can't vote in the election you shouldn't be able to donate.
There is a reason that so few people like Ted Cruz. From the p*rn to the mailer that looks like a summons ... and to the flip flopping on Trump and “vote your conscious”. No one trusts him or really likes him as a man. If he wins it will be because he is a Republican. He is a fraud... from his claims of upholding his family honor to having a wife that is a vegetarian from California. At the end of the day Ted Cruz is a liar... even the greatest liar in modern politics calls him... “lying Ted”
Wow, honestly, this is a test of your own integrity. You don't see the difference between campaign donations from individual voters and large donations from special interest groups? And btw, cruz also gets money from out of state... and since a U.S. Senator makes and votes on laws that effect all Americans, I don't have any issue with people from around America being interested in the campaign.
Talk about jumping to conclusions... I was responding to his direct language and now my integrity is on the line? First he said look how great it is the way Beto raises money. Then 2 sentences later he says perhaps go towards getting money out of politics. If the goal is to get MONEY out of politics then who it came from is irrelevant. Had he said we need to get money from special interests out of politics it would have fit your narrative. Also, I NEVER even mentioned either candidates name and you have to throw in the yea but Cruz is getting money from out of state too!! By the way... I'm not voting for either of them. I'm done with both parties. I disagree about allowing money from other states. They are representing the interests of Texas voters in the senate. The influence should be from Texans... not Hollywood or big business in other states.
First of all... campaigns cost money. You'll never remove money from campaigns. But... you can lessen the impact of PACs and return the balance towards individual voters by removing PAC money... O'Rourke's campaign is doing that, while cruz prefers the status quo. Second, the "... gets money from Hollywood" is a common dog whistle from the cruz campaign. Don't pretend that wasn't your intention. too. And last... you will vote for cruz... just as you voted for trump. And just as you will again, should he run again.
I said Hollywood for Beto and big businesses for Cruz... you are DENSE. I'M WRITING IN SOMEONE ELSE. I DISLIKE BOTH OF THEM. As of now my plan is to write in Mattis for president in 2020. If the democrats would like to run a moderate I will listen.
Considering Texas usually leads the nation in DWIs, his transgression actually aligns more with Texas values than what Cruz is accused of.
