@feloneouscat unfortunately, I think Cruz is one of the smarter GOP'ers. He's just utterly devoted to amassing power for the GOP without regard for the US.
@Sr0bi @feloneouscat eh, I've stopped looking for explanations apart from "this will increase their power" from the GOP. I don't believe they have any actual principles apart from that.
@Sr0bi Not sure on Cruz's motivations. If they screw Israel they will lose many Jewish and Christian in the US especially the Evangelicals. Some Christians hate jewish and muslim but the majority doesn't. You are correct that if they hate one it's more likely to be islam. @rpardee @feloneouscat
@Sr0bi I think he's playing to his supporters. I used to like Cruz [unfortunately]. I don't know how the GOP hasn't managed to lose the entire Christian base. @rpardee @feloneouscat
@rpardee @feloneouscat
And he's staunchly pro-Israel - although I don't know if any Republicans won't turn their backs on Jewish people later. I think they are really just anti-Islam.
