Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan understand that government does not create jobs. Entrepreneurs do.
TED CRUZ -
It’s not beneficial when you have a presidential candidate like Donald Trump, telling his supporters “punch that guy in the face.” I think everyone candidate ought to aspire toward civility, towards decency, towards bringing us together. I don’t think we should be using angry and hateful rhetoric.

I think if you’re at home and you don’t want Donald Trump to be the Republican nominee, then the only candidate who can beat Donald is our campaign. And so I would encourage, even if you like another candidate, stand with us if you don’t want Donald to be the nominee.
TED CRUZ -
If the Republican Party stands for individual liberty, if we defend the Bill of Rights, if we stand for keeping this country safe, then we deserve to win, and if we don’t, we deserve to lose. It shouldn’t be – it’s not just a game of blue team/red team. It is actually about making a difference in people’s lives.
TED 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.

TED CRUZ -
What I’m encouraging President Trump and the Cabinet and congressional leaders to do, is let’s keep our promises. Let’s do what we said we would do, and that’s what each and every one of you can hold all of us accountable for.
TED CRUZ -
We need the private sector’s help, because government is not innovating. Technology is running ahead by leaps and bound. The private sector will help, just as I helped after 9/11. But they must be engaged, and they must be asked. I will ask them. I know them.
TED CRUZ -
I have never supported amnesty, and I led the fight against Chuck Schumer’s gang of eight amnesty legislation in the Senate.
TED CRUZ -
It’s going to take a new generation of courageous conservatives to help make America great again.
TED CRUZ -
This man [Barack Obama] does not have the interests of our country. That’s not his agenda. His agenda is to bring us down to a third-world country.
