Donald Trump is dozens of despicable things, and is the biggest mistake in US electoral politics to ever have been elected as President of the United States. But, Ted Cruz is definitely by far and away, the "slimiest" politician of our current era. If you were to look up the definition of "slimeball" in the dictionary you would see a picture of Ted Cruz there,..

Umm, . . . you forgot the part wherein you explain why you feel this way.

With all due respect Shades, I call BS! This is definitely not a "post and run" (or whatever term you call it) by your rules.

Right. The "link and run" rule only applies to links. In this case, you made general statements but gave us nothing to discuss. So, since it's your thread, please get us started: What specific words or deeds from/by Ted Cruz convinced you that he is all those things you say he is?

Well what is with asking the supreme ct nominee if she thinks babies are racist while holding up somebody else's childrens book? Its just weird. I suppose it is possible I misunderstand. It appears to me to be grandstanding for racists. It is Possible that it is just grandstanding for people who want a reason to reject anybody not well right of center.

It really may be beyond my ability to analyze exactly. I have been unable to loose the impression that have had for years that Cruz is the most Machiavellian political manipulator in America. Fortunately he lacks Trump's bravado which some people find charismatic.

Yeah, what is the sum total of this meme-makers knowledge regarding Ted Cruz? Do you happen to have his CV?

I’m not referring to the meme-maker; I’m referring to the opening poster. And I’m not referring to any “sum total” of anything; I’m referring to the specific words and/or deeds that caused the opening poster to draw the conclusion he or she did.

I do not think it is fair to say Cruz has a complete lack of intelligence. He managed to complete an education.He is smart enough to be responsible for what he says.

Enough said.
