He was douche during the election. But he was running against Trump. He couldn't use the same tactics as Trump because nobody can beat Trump at it.
At the same time, I don't think anyone in professional politics thought that being straight talking and real could work. I think most including Cruz believed Trump was going to lose. I mean there's an entire industry around professional image, not just for politics but business as well.
Trump blew through all of that. The king of image and branding won by being real. I think Cruz learned from that. I still can't tell if he's trustworthy or not, but he's definitely a quick learner.
Can I admire hutzpah yet withhold trust? Yes. Cruz has a flair for drama, but the story of him dragging Sleepy Doc Carson into a closet to propose an anti Trump alliance, as well as his observed conduct when Sleepy Doc missed his cue at the debates.
If you recall, The Boss held Dr Ben back from bumbling onstage after Cruz sailed past him to his podium.
Ted’s kid’s slapping his face while he held her was a giveaway too. She’s not a prop. She pushed Carly off a stage too though, so I like her even more.
He wants it for Ted. And he’s deeply tied into the Bush dynasty. And he’s not really eligible as mommy became fully Canadian. Thank god that’s irrelevant, as he won’t run again I hope.
Not as bad as unnatural born citizen anchor baby Kamala who was raised in Canada, but still. Bush sponsored his dad and put him through college. He’s some sort of Bush family operative. Too spooky.
His wife was/is deep at Goldman Sachs, and tried to commit suicide, or they botched her murder, but either way, no way. President Cruz is a no from me. Senate OK.
He’ll retire and do media. Maybe on Trump’s network. He can be our Glen Beck. lol
He and Foam Boy blamed the Chicago rally
disturbance on Trump (which an acquaintance went to
and was much more violent than publicized)
and that was it for me
Not how I would describe Ted Cruz but you know, whatever. If you were to ask him whether he would rather vote for Mitt Romney or Trump, I don't believe he would say Trump. (Unless he's trying to save face, of course)

Very accurate perspective on Cruz. I couldn't agree more.
He's trustworthy. They spied on his campaign too.

That's the damn truth, I'd be willing to bet that he's a RINO, or maybe was but then realized that it wouldn't fly with GEOTUS.
.... guys if we call the most maga allies out there RINOS it will lose all meaning

Then you have not been paying attention. It's as simple as that.
