It started off making sense with "Big business sucks." But "Big tech, big Hollywood, big universities"? They all support Dems. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you conservative or are you just a sheep following guys like Cruz? I'm not a conservative: I'm an independent. I'm sure there are several things we could agree on, or at least come to a compromise on. But of the 5 things Cruz said, maybe one could be considered socialist: "big business sucks." I'd be curious to know in what context he meant that but I didn't listen to the whole thing, and I don't really care to. But the other 4 are anti-socialist things and that's why if AOC said it, as you pretended she did, it made no sense because she's biting the hands that feed her.

Socialist enabler, look in the mirror. Pretty sure he said "Big Business" and not "business." And again, you'd need to find out what he meant exactly by that (I'm assuming it was a dig at Amazon/Bezos but knock yourself out). So out of the 20% of what he said that might be construed as socialist, it's likely not even. So much for your "gotcha!" moment. Better luck next time.

You thought it was bull#### until you saw it was Cruz. Now you think it’s ok. You don’t recognize that you support the grifters when it’s right in front of you.

I said "she's an idiot" for attacking her base (you know I would agree with the last 4 things, and probably a good portion of "Big Business" so I wouldn't be calling her an idiot for saying those things suck). When the big reveal came and it was Cruz who said it, I said "that makes sense." Again if you want to clarify what he meant by "Big Business," knock yourself out.
