    Cruz is a moderate and has sold out conservatives more than once. Go to liberty score and look up his voting record. He has an 18% liberal voting record. liberty-score-frontend

    Which means his conservative score is 82%
    + just because he voted for a liberal issue - does not mean it was bad

    But more importantly -it is very hard for a hard right conservative to win.
    The more moderate - the better chance he has of winning.

    I don’t see him as a “wimp”. He isn’t Trump. He’s not going to be an “in your face” all the time kind of pres. That might be a nice change. Between Biden “you’re a lying two faced pony soldier” and Trump “I like my heroes not to get captured”, it might be nice to see some class and restraint from the POTUS.

    I do believe he will fight for what he believes and he has a strong conservative agenda.

    peace to you

    The only real problem I have with Cruz is that every time he speaks it’s as if he is in a formal debate at Harvard. For some reason, he just doesn’t connect with me, he seems “aloof”, like he’s explaining or lecturing instead of empathizing.

    peace to you

    I agree with the poster above - Cruz simply lacks charisma, although it's possible to win without having so much (Romney, Biden). Rand Paul has the same problem but I like his take on that Fauci fraud.

    I'll address my issues with that rating in the other thread, but I think the nominee will be Trump if his health holds up. Otherwise, it will be Cruz or DeSantis, the latter of which has charisma in spades.

    I have to admit: DeSantis is an intriguing option.

    i don't believe he will fight. I believe he will fail to do what is needed to avoid a fight. He is a strong conservative but he is not what this country needs right now. We need a fighter.
