Trump: "Ted Cruz Didn't Win Iowa, He Stole It;" Cruz Committed Voter Fraud
iOTW Report ^ | 2/3/16 | Aurelius

Posted on 02/03/2016 6:33:10 AM PST by rightistight

Accusing Senator Ted Cruz of voter fraud, Donald Trump today argued that Mr. Cruz "stole" the election in Iowa.

"That is why all of the polls were so wrong, and why he got far more votes than anticipated," Mr. Trump said on Twitter, suggesting no one predicted that Mr. Cruz would win:

Ted Cruz didn't win Iowa, he stole it. That is why all of the polls were so wrong and why he got far more votes than anticipated. Bad!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 3, 2016

Mr. Trump then went further, saying Mr. Cruz committed fraud, suggesting that Cruz's campaign suggesting that Ben Carson would drop out amounted to fraud, as did his campaign's mailers about "voting violations:"

Many people voted for Cruz over Carson because of this Cruz fraud. Also, Cruz sent out a VOTER VIOLATION certificate to thousands of voters.— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 3, 2016

The Voter Violation certificate gave poor marks to the unsuspecting voter(grade of F) and told them to clear it up by voting for Cruz. Fraud— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 3, 2016

Keep bleating about the trumped up so-called scandals.

Not sure, folks. There has to be something to these tweets. After his tweet about spending all his money and the voters don’t appreciate it....I wonder if he’s doing this to get out of the race??


I’ve been worried for a while that he was the appointed path-clearer for Rubio. Trash Cruz such that his followers wouldn’t migrate to Cruz if DT dropped out and hand the establishment the presidency on a buttered silver platter with hollandaise sauce.

There’s a shark in the water just past that ski-jump, Donald.

Be careful.

So Donald “The Cry Baby” Trump is whining again about how he has been mistreated.

What a loser!

He’s in over his head and looking for a way out.

Trump has never been serious about being president. He needs constant affirmation & running was the biggest ego stroke he could possibly think of. Now he needs to back out - quickly - before he damages his brand, future reality shows, etc.

Cruzers spread a bunch of bullcrap around about Trump. The leftist and righty press attack Trump all day every day. The GOPe attacks Trump al day. He’s fighting back. He has no establishment support in any corner, only voters. Deal with it. If your place is so righteous you’ll win. If it isn’t you wont.

Trump is a whiny bitch playing the victim instead of being a man. He is showing his liberal roots.

Trump has tons of free publicity from the press compared to any other candidate.

Admittedly this DID happen - Cruz even made a "better to ask forgiveness than permission" type apology for it.

How much of an impact it truly had on the results, we'll never know.

Trump has learned nothing from his Iowa beating.

Sure we do.

Carson went into the caucuses polling no higher than 10% (real clear politics). He ended up with 9.3%.

Show me an alternative result where Cruz's teams mistake changed anything.

It also explains why Cruz has been so loathe to attack DT: divvying up his support which looks like it will split evenly between Cruz and Rubio, thanks to the Anybody But Cruz contingent DT has constructed. Hope everybody enjoys LITERAL Mob rule with Marco.

Trump may even come out and claim Cruz has made a super secret (CIA/NSA/CFR) pact to turn the U.S. into Canada and change our national Capitol from DC to Toronto, make us all learn "O Canada" and quit football for hockey!

Did Mr. Trump's supply of Valium run out?

He claims to not drink, smoke, nor take mind altering drugs.
Maybe he should start...

Coming from the guy who continues to bleat “birther” nonsense. Trump is becoming unhinged... even more so than I suspected.

Cruz apologized for a stupid mistake that changed nothing. Trump's behavior certainly is an issue. I can't vote for this guy.

Exactly. Someone should ask Mr. Crybaby why Carson's voters didn't go for HIM.

Where were Trump's people -- why weren't they complaining right there? Because they thought it was true, too! It was coming from CNN.

Rubio's people used it, too. Trump's not going after Rubio.

I believe the term to describe what the Donald is experiencing now is “butt-hurt”
