Ted Cruz mocks GOP candidates for praising Trump after backing him despite insults to his wife and father

Ted Cruz mocked GOP candidates in the Ohio Senate Republican primary for jockeying for the support of former President Donald Trump.

Mr Cruz has backed Mr Trump despite previous the former president’s previous insults against Mr Cruz’s wife and father.

The Texas senator was campaigning for former Ohio Treasurer Josh Mandel in Kettering, Ohio on Friday, saying that “when I look to candidates, I don’t look to see what they say on the stump, because they all say the same darn thing”.

“Every candidate says ‘I love Donald Trump. No, no, no – I love Donald Trump more. No, no, no – I have Donald Trump tattooed on my rear end!’” he said mockingly.

During the 2016 campaign for the Republican presidential nomination, Mr Cruz called Mr Trump a “snivelling coward,” a “pathological liar” and “utterly amoral”. After losing that race, he made his fellow Republicans furious by refusing to endorse Mr Trump at the 2016 Republican National Convention.

But following Mr Trump’s victory in the 2016 election, the relationship, which was once fraught both politically and personally, grew closer as Mr Cruz helped Mr Trump fight off impeachment.

Who has been a bigger Trump ass kisser than Ted Cruz?

Maybe Flip Flop Graham or Gaetz or Jim Suckem Up Jordan.
Cruz is a coward just like Trump. That's a marriage made in hell.
 
LMAO

Yeah, sure. Were you around for the past 25 years?

The worst was 2015 to 2016.

I have been around since the 60s and we have never in the history of politics seen anyone get the worship that Trump has, hell Republicans did even bow to Reagan the way they do Trump.
 
Obama’s gonna save us all!!!
Obama was decent, intelligent and educated... Definitely patriotic. Lots of Americans couldn't get past his being a mulatto. Shame. The guy is a stand out.
 
The real irony about all of this is that it shows that nobody thinks less of the Republican base than the Republicans themselves. Nobody thinks the Republican base is as stupid, gullible, and ignorant as the Republicans running for office do. I wonder if the Republican base will ever wake up and see this.
Republicans run with at least one arm tied behind their backs. The social justice agendas are strong and it is easy to get sympathy from those of approved groups if any wrong is suspected or made up to any in them. We have turned pieces of shit who have done no good in their lives into martyrs. And this is the problem.

During Reagan's time the TV was not pure Progressive socialist propaganda with most programs blasting their politics whether serious or comedy. Live or filmed.

Don't be so partisan. Look for qualities of character.. intelligence, education, self control, speaking skills.. patriotism. We can elect statesmen instead game show hosts or mob boss wannabes.

Trump said it was "wonderful," "so smart," and even "genius" for Putin to "declare a big portion of the Ukraine ... as independent." He claimed Putin will now "go in" and "be a peacekeeper."

Trump also declared that Putin has "the strongest peace force I've ever seen," with "more army tanks than I've ever seen," and "we could use that on our southern border." Putin is "savvy," Trump continued, before complimenting himself by stating the Russia-Ukraine crisis "would have never happened" if he was still president.

Notice at the end he pats himself on the back and claims the crisis would have never happened if he was still president. Why is that?

You know nothing at all about that conversation. Putin was on a charm offensive for a while. He fooled Dubya too at first. Watch Putin's Way on PBS. He also fooled Obama briefly. Only Trump failed to actually see Putin for what he is.

Trump gets caught up in his own gushing praise. Trump is really insecure, wants to be liked... And he's extremely naive.

haha trump said no such thing…he said he’d go in claiming to be one…

Putin played the more flexible dembots…at the expense of ukraine.
 
You mean Kamala. She's disappointing.
She can’t lead….. too busy redesigning the VP residence and can’t hold on to her staff. She feels entitled and is one heartbeat away from the most accountable position in the world.
