For me it's not a problem of Cruz likeability or is he constitutionally inclined. It's he's been there to long. He is a career politician bought out by special interests. Now it may be interests a gun toting, God fearing person supports, but he's still not going to do anything that jeopardizes his career.
If you think he is just try to get him to agree to term limits. He won't. None of them will.
That said he's a better one to put there than O'Rourke for dang sure.

A quick google search will show you a dozen or more links showing Cruz is definitely in favor of term limits.
With his calls to “drain the swamp,” President Trump has cast his election victory as a rebuke against career politicians. Now two Texas Republican leaders suggest that the timing is right to impose term limits on members of Congress.
Last month, U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, proposed a constitutional amendment with U.S. Rep. Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., that would limit members of Congress to serving a maximum of three terms in the House and two in the Senate.

Originally posted by Gunnyart View PostJerp, Personally I've never thought Cruz was unlikable. But I get your point.
Folks who can't think logically or follow his reasoned arguments think he comes off as arrogant and lawyerly.
Not to dredge up old wounds but slanderous crap thrown at him from a certain other presidential candidate did a lot of damage to his stellar reputation even in the minds of people who agree with him on every issue.
Ted is a good friend to every freedom loving American and I hope people don't sit out on our side because of nasty politics.

Originally posted by Gunnyart View PostTerm limits are a lazy fix. If Vermont thinks a socialist is a good idea they will keep sending him to Washington. Why should I be deprived of being represented by strict constitutionalist based on an arbitrary time frame. We have the vote. Make your case and and exercise it. That is your term limit.
Very true. Yet here we are.
