He’s ok.

There are worse.
There are better.

He’s not going anywhere beyond where he is.

If he’s smart, he’ll join the Texas Nationalist Movement.
We may have a place for him.

He got railroaded by Chrstie, Cruz, Rubio, and most of all Trump in the debates. I early voted for him but he dropped out before Texas’ primary.

There are only 2 or 3 votes in my life that the politician didn’t last long enough for me to regret and Paul for President was one of them.

When the GOP still has people such as Liz Cheney rallying the troops of the old guard against Trump and yes even DeSantis then nothing important will be done. They will be in complete defiance because they are the swamp.

Unless the GOP gets more MAGA politicians in key positions then they will continue to kiss the arse of the Dems while this nation continues to get worse.

He can pretty much forget about being POTUS at this point, but maybe Senate Leader, AG, VP or SCOTUS would be his ceiling.

I've always felt that he would be most effective as a SCOTUS Justice. He has near encyclopedic knowledge of the Constitution and Constitutional precedent. Plus, he's got the personality of wet toilet paper and that would serve him much better in the SCOTUS than it does as a main power player in Congress.

I've been a bit cold on Cruz as a Senator lately because of some of his decisions. He's definitely better than a (D) but won't stay that way if he keeps faulting on the biggest issues.

They weren’t awful. He just wasted time expecting the American public to understand what he was talking about. He needs someone to help him dumb things down. Like way down so the average voter can understand.

I'd take him over Trump. He's more conservative.

I want to love Ted...but I'm afraid when the chips are down, he's a uniparty boy.

He got his arse kicked by Trump. He is a snake.

He did beat Jimmy Kimmel in that pickup game for charity though, so I have to give him significant points for that.

I think he could be trustworthy as AG.

Good luck! We'd have to get rid of Ronna F'n Romney as RNC chair first. Romney and RINO's go together like peanut butter and peanut butter.

Baloney! I support Ted Cruz wholeheartedly. Ted didn't vote for red flag laws. His counterpart did.

If we are talking about conservatives who don't walk the walk,Ted is not among them. I'm proud to have Cruz as a Texas senator, and I wish he could punch my senator Cornyn in the mouth. I support Ted110%

I like Ted but we need him as a circuit judge. Then Supreme Court. But we need a solid America first Senator for Tx
