More from Ted Cruz
I am perfectly happy to compromise and work with anybody. Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians. I’ll work with Martians. If – and the if is critical – they’re willing to cut spending and reduce the debt.
Ted CruzTed Cruz Donald [Trump] is a charming person. He can be fun. He can make you laugh. But he can turn on you. And get nasty and personal and vicious.
Ted CruzTed Cruz I’m not going to impugn anyone’s integrity. I’m not going to attack their character. And, in fact, I will happily praise both Donald Trump and Marco Rubio as men who I admire, as people who I’m not going to go personal with them.
Ted CruzTed Cruz Every candidate is going to come to you and say they are the most conservative person that ever lived.
Ted CruzTed Cruz In the 13 months I’ve been in the Senate, it has become apparent to me the single thing that Republican politicians hate and fear the most, and that is when they’re forced to tell the truth. It makes their heads explode.
Ted CruzTed Cruz My touchstone for every question is the Constitution.
Ted CruzTed Cruz Well, guess what, I’m Cuban! And no self-respecting Cuban man of the era would let his wife work.

Ted CruzTed Cruz Social justice is group psychology, it’s group rights, it’s collectivisim, and it’s a negation of individual responsibility, which is what the Bible teaches. Individual responsibility. And of course, social justice leads very quickly to socialism, and ultimately to communism.
Ted CruzTed Cruz I’ve spent the past month in Washington D.C. and it is terrific to be back in America.
Ted CruzTed Cruz Start being biblically correct, instead of politically correct.
Ted CruzTed Cruz Donald [Trump]. I understand rules are very hard for you. They’re very confusing.
Ted CruzTed Cruz We deserve leaders who stand for principal, who unite us all behind shared values, who cast aside anger for love. That is the standard we should expect from everybody.
Ted CruzTed Cruz Theirs is the party that … responds to the death of Americans at Benghazi by asking, What difference does it make?
Ted CruzTed Cruz I will commend the Democrats for one thing. If they name Keith Ellison as the head of the DNC, then I’ll commend them for truth in advertising.
Ted CruzTed Cruz I don’t think we should be engaged in nation-building. It’s not our job to turn foreign nations into democratic utopias, to try to turn Iraq into Switzerland. It is the military’s job to hunt down and kill our enemies, to kill ISIS before they murder American citizens and they wage jihad.
