More quotes by Ted Cruz
You can't get to a balanced budget and begin to pay down debt and thus create jobs in this country if you don't have specific plans to make it work.
Ted Cruz
ISIS and Iran have declared war on America, and we need a commander in chief who will do everything necessary to keep our children safe.
Ted Cruz
I do believe, in the long term, we will either get back to the principles that built America or we lose this country. And I'm an optimist.
Ted Cruz
It took Jimmy Carter to give us Ronald Reagan.
Ted Cruz
Do you know how many aliens Bill Clinton deported? 12 million. Do you know how many illegal aliens, George W. Bush deported? 10 million. We can enforce the laws and if we secure the border, that solves the problem. And as president I will solve this problem and secure the border.
Ted Cruz
I think President's candidates need shock collars or something.
Ted Cruz
What I am endeavoring to do is simply speak the truth, speak common-sense values, free market principles and the Constitution. For every question, the Constitution is my touchstone.
Ted Cruz
A debate actually is a policy issue but I will say this - gosh, if you guys ask one more mean question, I may have to leave the stage.
Ted Cruz
One of the things that I have encouraged President Trump to do, and I'm optimistic about this, is to take on directly the regulatory state to take it on, to fire bureaucrats.
Ted Cruz
Sometimes people try to give me advice going forward, and they say, You know, you've just got to work to be more likeable in Washington. And I laugh and say, You know this isn't rocket science.
Ted Cruz
There's a lot of despair in the USA. Young people are afraid for the future.
Ted Cruz
I would note that the scripture tells us, you shall know them by their fruit. We see lots of campaign conservatives. But if we're going to win in 2016, we need a consistent conservative, someone who has been a fiscal conservative, a social conservative, a national security conservative.
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
Always be sexy. I salute that message.
Ted Cruz
If I'm elected president, we will secure the border. We will triple the border patrol. We will build a wall that works and I'll get Donald Trump to pay for it.
Ted Cruz
If I'm elected president, let me tell you about my first day in office. The first thing I intend to do is to rescind every illegal and unconstitutional executive action taken by Barack Obama.
Ted Cruz
The Tsarnaev brothers, the elder brother made a public call to jihad and the [Barack] Obama administration didn't target it.
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
On health care, your freedom to choose your own doctor, without Obamacare.
Ted Cruz
I had a back-and-forth where I asked Donald Trump, is it true or false that he said the government should pay for everyone's health care? He said it's false. Listen, within minutes, we put out a video just contrasting what he said there with video of him just a few months earlier saying exactly the opposite.
