Conservatives Meet to Plan Cruz’s Future

June 15, 2016 · 5:41 pm ET · 88 Comments

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) attended a confidential dinner with more than 20 top conservatives to plan his comeback as a movement leader in the mold of Ronald Reagan, The Hill reports.

 “The dinner was at the Virginia home of conservative activist Brent Bozell and the agenda was to plot Cruz’s future and the future of the conservative movement.  The undertone of the dinner was about how to position Cruz for a future tilt at the presidency and to spearhead the conservative movement from his seat in the Senate, those in attendance said.”
