Never Trumper Ana Navarro Tried To Embarrass Ted Cruz On The View

What I would say is this. In 2016, we had a primary where Donald Trump and I beat the living crap out of each other. I’ll tell you Heidi laughed when he said that. My father laughed. By the way, my dad didn’t just kill Kennedy. He’s got Jimmy Hoffa buried in the backyard. It was idiotic.

And we went at each other and at the end of the day he won. And I had a decision to make in November of 2016. He’d been elected president and I got a responsibility to represent 30 million Texans.

I could have decided, my feelings are hurt, I’m going to take the ball and go home and not do my job. If I was prepared to do that, I better be prepared to resign from my job because I have a responsibility.

So what I did is I went and said, “Listen, we have an opportunity to make a difference for this country and I want to roll up my sleeves and lead the fight to actually deliver on promises. We were talking a minute ago about the incredible booming economy. We saw 7 million people get off of food stamps. We saw poverty dropping. We saw African-American poverty dropping. We saw Hispanic poverty dropping. Those are real results that make a real difference and I’m proud of that record and why did I choose to work with him even though I was pissed off at what he said? Because I had a job to do and I had a responsibility.
