Three days after a young man named Dylann Roof fatally shot nine people in a historic church in South Carolina—the latest in a string of gun massacres across the U.S.— Ted Cruz campaigned at a shooting range in Iowa.






Bold move for a politician? Perhaps.

But the decision reflects Cruz's deepening alliance with the powerful gun lobby and his effort to cast himself as an unapologetic warrior for the Second Amendment.

And you know damn well that Donald Trump couldn't recite the Second Amendment correctly in 10 attempts. Doesn't matter though.

Probably about as solid as Rafael's stance on the 1st amendment, where it goes out the window if he thinks he can make political gain from it.





Sort of like him marrying a woman who wants to do away with US sovereignty, borders and the Constitution via the North American Union...all while professing to "support" the Constitution.





Never trust a man who runs from his name.

Love an individual or hate him. I'd never "compromise" or vote for the "other" party out of spite, because the person you didn't like or the person you did, didn't get the nomination... I don't care who you are... you stand strong on the second and you'll get my vote.

It truly is issue number one at the top of my list.

There's a double standard here- GD will bitch all day long about foreigners who don't assimilate, but someone who Anglicizes his name is not to be trusted.  

In November you will have one choice that is better than Hillary.  One choice, and one choice only.  You guys waste an incredible amount of time on this bullshit, on top of sounding inconsistent about your beliefs.

The only real chance we have of making America great again is to get her back to the principles upon which she was founded.
Cruz has the best understanding and stance on the constitution and therefore, in my opinion, is the best equipped to do so.

I will vote for Trump if he gets the nomination, though.
I would just prefer Cruz.

I voted for Cruz in the primary

some people would say I am a single issue voter

but the reality is that if we lose the freedom to be lawfully armed, we lose the Constitution in it's entirety and that will bring civil war to this country

and I do not want that

I want freedom and peace and that requires the freedom to be lawfully armed

Trump was a lobbyist who paid liberal Democrats for political favors. Trump has zero desire to make America great.

Trump was an insider when he donated money to anti-gun, sanctuary-cities Democrats in exchange for political favors.

Trump is not going to fix the system he helped to break.

Cruz is a once-in-a-lifetime purist.

And as good as this is....a metric ton of whiners got their feels hurt because Ted said Trump was using too much vitriol in his campaign.  This was after the riot at Trumps would be rally and while he also blamed the savages for what happened last night.



Timing might have been bad, but reasons like this I still support Ted. Too bad so many people whined and jumped ship last night.  Their feelz got in the way of substance.

Wow. The mental gymnastics it takes to attack Cruz must be exhausting. We know you worship Trump. You can stop.

Cruz has been pro-2A for his entire life. He's done more for the 2nd Amendment than most in office. What about Mr. Flip Flop (Trump)? Nothing. Trump hasn't donated a dime to support the pro-2A movement. Is supporting the AWB and longer wait times pro-2A?

Cruz memorized the US Constitution at 13 and has been a champion of it since then. I doubt Trump could even list the Bill of Rights.

Attacking Cruz's wife for serving on a committee in 2004. That's all you have? Really really weak. Notice how we don't need to mention Trump's wives. Trump's statements and actions have shown him to be anything but a constitutionalist - he supports loosening libel laws to sue those that oppose him, eminent domain, banning those of certain religions, etc.
