In the past few weeks Donald Trump has been winning enthusiastic supporters with his populist rhetoric and his ability to stand up to the establishment media (even though his comb-over can’t stand up to the wind 😀 ).
 
But in the crowded field of GOP candidates, it’s Ted Cruz who’s really been doing the heavy lifting lately.
 
Not nearly as flashy as the Donald, the senator from Texas been consistently and resolutely standing up for all the right issues. Here’s a brief re-cap:
 
• Defending the First Amendment and sponsoring a Rally for Religious Liberty on Friday, August 21st, in Des Moines, Iowa
 
• Demanding the truth on criminal illegals ~ (7-21-15) Relentlessly pressed Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) director Sarah Saldana for the real numbers on the convicted criminal illegal aliens released by the feds
 
• Strongly opposed re-establishing diplomatic relations with communist Cuba
 
• Spoke Wednesday at the Times Square rally against the egregious treaty with the tyrannical government of Iran
 
• Called out the judicial activism of the Supreme Court ~

“The Court today is not a body of jurists. It is not a body of judges following the law, but rather it has declared itself, in effect, a super-legislature,” Sen. Cruz said […]
 
“Justice Kennedy’s pop psychology has no basis in the text or history of the Constitution, and yet sadly, it has become the foundation for far too many of the Court’s opinions. And I should note, we are now witnessing the shameful results of the Court forcing its own unlimited right of abortion on to the Constitution.

 
 
Capping off an excellent week, today Cruz stood up to the RINO coalition in the Senate and asserted that we have a government of, by, and for the lobbyists. Even better – Cruz calls McConnell a liar on Senate floor!
 
Here’s he is discussing the smack-down with Mark Levin tonight ~

Awesome!

 
Donald Trump’s followers may love his brash, unapologetic style. His outspoken opposition to illegal immigration is refreshing and he’s unafraid to tell talking heads like Anderson Cooper that no one trusts the mainstream media. He’s audacious, his boldness is contagious.
 
But Ted Cruz is the real deal. He’s a solid conservative; a true leader. And his fearless actions speak much louder than Trump’s words.
