    "Lyin' Ted'"s comments regarding "Lyin' Don" and "Lyin Don'"s regarding "Lyin' Ted" won't be enough to overcome the "nasty" foreign-born guy's huge infusion of money from out-of state billionaires. They are hellbent on defeating the native Texan.

    Yes, they are aware of all the out of State money coming in for Beto. Then Trump shows up says vote for Ted. Ted picks ups a slight bump. Causing the left to up even more money for Beto. Which we do want the Demos spending Big time money in a losing effort. Less money for a swing state then.

    Then T Bone Pickings and a couple of other Texas oil men will balance things out.

    Native Texan O'Rourke's impressive support in the form of modest contributions from average Texans will easily be exceeded by foreign-born Cruz's fat cats nationwide.

    The progress in Texas will be long-term, and I expect that Texans investing in it will eventually pay off.

    Also, the higher "Lyin' Ted"'s "utterly immoral... pathological liar"'s national profile is in the election, the better for Democrats and America.

    Ted cruz is a natural born American citizen who is qualified and has run for president

    Yeah.....long term. Not this term. Long long term with any Demo looking to restrict or take gun Rights in Texas. Oh and stand for Open Borders. Good luck with that.

    Cruz Cruz, after became involved in US politics and his dual allegiance had been noted, renounced his Canadian citizenship.

    Personally, I have issues with neither Rafael's padre's origins, nor his own foreign birth. However, others - particularly one (whom Carnival denounced as a "Sniveling Coward!") called "Lyin' Ted" a "Nasty Guy!" and expressed serious concerns regarding his immigrant status.
    Meanwhile, the GOP make-over team is sparing no expense in their heroic attempts:

    Pigging out with the fat cats at a posh Washington trough may be the way for "Calgary" Cruz to beat "Tex" O'Rourke in his native state, but the desperation is apparent.

    Trump is a street fighter who can land a puch with the best of them

    He was born to be a republican president who must battle the world to get and remain where he is today

    Ted Cruz understands that even if you dont

    Trump's tiresome petty, pissy tweets and hysterical sniping are why Carnival had nailed the Cry Baby as a "Sniveling Coward!", of course.

    Yes, we understand why they are now feigning affection.

    - Rick Tyler, communications director for Carnival during his 2016 presidential campaign recently opined “...people say no, it’s not possible because again you look at Texas and say ‘it’s a red state and it’s never going to happen’ but Beto O’Rourke has consistently out-fundraised him two-to-one, and he doesn’t take PAC money... It should be a 10 to 15 point race, it’s not, it’s a zero."

    It's understandable why the rattled fat cats are suddenly lavishing the big bucks on their "Lyin' Ted" to protect their interests.

    1. I love Trumps tweets. I enjoy watching Liberals' heads explode.

    2. Yes, there are many new "Texans" these days. Some walk across the southern border and most move here because this is where the jobs are. This group, those that move to the jobs, I call locust. More correctly Liberal Locust. They have destroyed the states where they use to live with liberal ideas on economy and society. Places such as most New England/Eastern states and of course the Left coast states. Once they are here in sufficient numbers the will again vote in liberals which will then go about destroying the economy that brought them here.

    Some become moist every time those stubby little thumbs throw a tantrum. Many Americans, of both parties, are embarrassed by them, and have often expressed the wish that he stop pleasuring himself publicly in that puerile manner.

    If you attribute New England's success to a younger, better-educated, and more diverse electorate, you are not incorrect, and sharing their bounty with Texas will be good for Texas.

    Hardly a hotbed of mindless, rabid party partisanship, the best-educated in the union (Massachusetts) often elects Republican governors, and has one now (Charlie Baker) who is usually rated the best in the nation.

    Progress is in the offing. That's a good thing.

    The success of progressive Massachusetts under Republican governors is undeniable.

    One example is Willard Romney. RomneyCare resulted in Massachusetts having the lowest uninsured rate in the nation at 2.8%.

    Of course, if Texas taxpayers don't mind picking up the tab for the medical costs incurred by their state's record-high level of families without health insurance (and those costs usually bloated by their use of hospital emergency rooms) that is their business.

    You appear confused. "Beto" is a native Texan, and "Carnival" is the foreign-born immigrant.

    Since Trump has been a lousy President, one wonders what Ted the Toad could have been thinking.

    One wonders what you thought he would do. Drool? He's been a terrible President.
    Obviously, facts mean nothing to you. Here they are again...

    The GDP is growing about the same speed as it did from Q2 2014 through Q1 2015.

    [​IMG]

    Wages adjusted for inflation have dropped since Trump took office.

    [​IMG]

    Are you going to stop perpetrating a FAKE NEWS fraud on the forum?
    They were coming back under Obama.

    [​IMG]

    Are you going to spread the credit around? (I don't think either Trump or Obama deserve praise, but that's another matter.)
    You want to round up people spreading FAKE NEWS?

    I don't care about Robert O'Rourke's ancestry. I am bothered that an Irish American is trying to pass himself off as Hispanic.

    If the democrats want to stop it, when and were are they saying it? The only people who seem to want to stop it are trump voters in large part. Point me to the democratic group that voices what you just said. I think you would search a very long time and never find them. Why? Because you are utterly wrong, and democrats could not give a rat's arse about stopping illegal immigration. But of course you can prove you are right, if you are. Right? Give us the link. Purty please.

    Do you even understand what recapitalizing the banks means and how it might work?

    Read about what Sweden did...

    Finally, a Texan who might understand...

    Texan #1: "Well, we finished printing up those $18 bills, but who would be dumb enough to buy 'em?​

    Texan #2: "Okies. We can palm the stuff off up there."​

    The two Texans cross into Oklahoma, stop at the first gas station and go inside.​

    Okie [greeting them]: "What can I do for you fellas?"​

    Texan #1: "We'd like to get change for this $18 bill?"​

    Okie: "Sure, what will it be--two nines or three sixes?"​
