RedState: You’re Kidding, Right?! Senate Republicans Demand Ted Cruz Apologize To Mitch McConnell

By: streiff (Diary) | March 16th, 2016 at 10:30 AM

Senior Senate Republicans are calling on Sen. Ted Cruz to rebuild his strained relationships with his colleagues and apologize to Majority Leader Mitch McConnell before the party establishment considers consolidating behind his presidential bid.

 

Republican senators said that Cruz must return to Capitol Hill and make the case directly to his colleagues to help ease long-festering tensions. And a large number of Republicans said the fence-mending starts with this: Apologizing to McConnell for calling him a liar last year on the floor of the Senate.

 

That message — to smooth things over with Senate Republicans in a private session — was personally delivered by fellow Texan and McConnell’s chief deputy, Sen. John Cornyn, who spoke with Cruz by phone after the candidate won their home state’s primary earlier this month.

What Cruz vs. Trump Means

By DANIEL MCCARTHY • March 16, 2016, 7:02 AM

Donald Trump will go to the Republican convention in Cleveland with more delegates than anyone else. But it’s still possible he won’t have an outright majority. The mechanics of a contested convention have been covered at length in TAC and elsewhere. But what about the politics—who actually emerges as the Republican nominee?

 

The simplest answer is Ted Cruz. He’ll have the second largest number of delegates, as well as the symbolically important second largest number of popular votes. Although his Senate colleagues dislike and have been slow to endorse him, he has in fact assembled a broad coalition of support on the right, from former Jeb Bush advisors to the Senate’s most policy-minded conservative, Mike Lee. Cruz is the obvious pole around which to consolidate anti-Trump forces.http://www.theamericanconservative.com/mccarthy/what-cruz-vs-trump-means-for-the-gop/

Cruz has spent his career in the Senate dumping on the leadership. Now Lets assume Ted becomes President, how much do you think he can get done? Actually the question could be asked, just how much did he get done in his time in the Senate?

I do believe the Donald has won the contest between the two as far as insults go. I don't know about apologies, but Cruz will have some fence mending to do.

1. The same can be said of DT X 10. Assuming DT has an actual clue on how to get anything done in Washington.

2. Just because I (or anyone) criticizes Cruz does not mean they support DT.

@Geee

 

Thank you! Exactly. The question is how many Cruz Supporters will understand or forgive Ted for working with the GOP Leadership?
