Quote

People are fed up. They are fed up with what's happening in Washington. They are fed up with both parties. They are fed up with politicians who have lied to them.

The reason the Constitution gives judges life tenure is so they can be independent of political pressures and follow the law.

The message that I am conveying to President Trump, to the Cabinet, to leaders in both Houses is real simple. Let's do what we promised. Let's deliver on the promises and if we do that, we'll win at the ballot box and if we don't, the people will hold us accountable for that too.

I think President's candidates need shock collars or something.

I don't think it's government's job to find health care for people. I think it's the individual's job to find health care.

Donald Trump agreed with Hillary Clinton supporting John Kerry. He agreed with Hillary Clinton on being - quote - neutral between Israel and the Palestinians.

It's not a lack of competence that is preventing the [Barack] Obama administration from stopping these attacks. It is political correctness. We didn't monitor the Facebook posting of the female San Bernardino terrorist. She made a public call to jihad, and they didn't target it.

Young people want someone to tell them the truth. They want to be inspired.

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.

Do you know the rate of military enlistment among Hispanics is higher than any demographic in this country?

There is no doubt that if Donald [Trump] steamrolls through Super Tuesday, wins everywhere with big margins, that he may well be unstoppable. I don't think that will happen.

Any country that makes U.S. service members get on their knees will feel the full force and fury of the United States of America.

On domestic policy, Donald Trump agreed with Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton on the Wall Street bailout, the TARP bailout of big bank. I think the government ought to be standing with mainstream, with working men and women. And then you put on top of that the ethical issues, whether it is refusing to release his taxes. And that's a real problem.

I do think if we take the power out of Washington and bring it back to the people, if we defend the Bill of Rights, free speech, religious liberty, the Second Amendment, privacy, if we repeal Obamacare, abolish the IRS, if we get Washington out of the way of job creators, I think we can transform this country.

I think it's an enormous blessing to be the child of an immigrant who fled oppression, because you realize how fragile liberty is and how easily it can be taken away.
Ted Cruz

I think that is why we're seeing conservatives uniting behind our campaign, because I have a proven record as a consistent conservative of standing up to Washington and fighting for the constitution.

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.

Under President (George W.) Bush, prosecution of gun crimes was 30 percent higher than it is under President Obama.

I'm not serving in office because I desperately needed 99 new friends in the U.S. Senate. Given the choice between being reviled in Washington, DC, and appreciated in Texas, or reviled in Texas and appreciated in Washington, I would take the former 100 out of 100 times.

If there's not a message that people care about, they're not going to work on the campaign.

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.
