What Cruz did to Carson is a Clinton tactic, wouldn't you agree?

Describe in your own words the tactics. Support your argument with direct quotes.

I'm a Ted Cruz supporter. I will vote for Donald Trump if he is the nominee. Will you make the the same commitment?

Of course, if Cruz is the nominee, I'll vote for him.

Either you agree or you don’t, it’s not my job to educate you.

I don’t think some of them are mistakes. Certainly not this one with Carson.

I don't agree with you and I'm educated on the topic.

The problem is that you throw out a claim and refuse to support your claim.

Here is CNN’s report which aired 15 minutes before the caucuses and led the Cruz team to think Carson was about to suspend his campaign. If Sundance ha any interest in being objective he needs to look at what CNN was reporting at the time. Here 8s a link to video of the CNN report. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1085531334800368&id=100000305365400&_rdr

I didn’t expect you to agree. The problem is you expect me to do your bidding and I’m not going to waste my time placating you. That’s a fools errand.

Carson is still breathing. I don't know who in Cruz' camp sent the message, the crawl on the CNN screenshot said something about Carson going home.

However, even if this was done with malicious intent, it falls far short of murder, serial rape, sale of national security secrets, perjury, obstruction of justice, and other improprieties that the Clintons could be accused of with apparent justification.

IF (big if) Cruz himself sent it with the intent of hurting Carson unjustly, it still falls far short of the criminal weight class either the Clintons or Obama are in.

Objection! Leading question presupposes unethical behaviour on the part of the defendant.

No. You made a charge. You said that what Cruz did to Carson was a Clinton tactic.

And when I ask you to support this remarkable claim, you refuse do it.

Instead you blame me for asking you to support your claim.

What's a fools errand is wasting time with you, taking your claim seriously.

The CNN report says he’s going home to Florida for a couple days and then to DC for the National Prayer Breakfast. They said nothing about him dropping out. The Cruz campaign just made that up. Had they been honorable they would have checked with Carson directly to verify their phony claim. Did they, if so, what did Carson say?

That doesn't mean that I won't comment on your posts. I just won't look for any participation back from you.

I agree with you about the level the Clintons go to is above what Cruz has done. I guess my point is the Clintons wouldn’t bat an eye doing exactly the same thing that Cruz did and have probably done it or something similar multiple times over the years.
