What gets me is how widely known this story was in the campaign and media circles as #TheThing, and then the media seemingly let Cruz come out and place this at Trump's feet.
I don't think Cruz survives for long and we can then move on to Trump vs. Kasich. Now, maybe I am wrong and Cruz is shown to be completely innocent, but if so, then this surely will play out way different than what we have seen in the past.
Have any proof whatsoever on the photo purchase? You are simply spewing lies or the fantasies in your mind from the Trump version of hopeychangy fever...
Clearly, you cannot discern the moral difference between the Biblical teaching against foul lanaguage and coarse speech, and post-modern liberals feiging outrage that others can express their views.
"Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving."
Ephesians 5:4
Attempting to lump me in with the safe space fascists is a pathetic attempt on your part, and not worthy of the FR forum.
The point. You missed it.
The electoral campaign has gone personal and nasty. Attacks on family members have emerged including criminally intended threats against Donald Trump’s family members.
But you all are omitting in your comments what’s behind these personal attacks and criminally intended threats and in so doing are being used as unwitting dupes. The Clinton machine is criminal and nasty and you can bet they are pulling strings here.
Consider the following post about how the democrats are positioning against Ted Cruz:
“Jeff Dinetz writing for ‘The Lid’ conveniently forgets that democrats and their media attack dogs would be all over this story 24/7, repeating so often that it would become a reality lie in all democrats minds, minds that would never let go of it and never be swayed otherwise.”
“Further, as the Cruz team would ramp up the dirty. sordid history of Scumbag Bill, the democrats would parade the alleged, truest, fact-twisted truth-lie of women having affairs with the Cubadian holy-roller Teddy Swaggart on every broadcast and print media outlet non-stop until it became a part of the permanent political narrative of 2016.”
“So go ahead Dinetz, go ahead and present your case for Cruz. you may be right but it won’t matter much and in fact, it will only keep the allegations in the public eye longer thus doing more damage than was ever intended.”
I don’t even bother to go to the Drudge report on weekends. - no action. Especially on holidays.
but wait...
Didn’t David Kendall use to be the major attorney for The Enquirer” ? and
isn’t David Kendall the attorney for the Clintons’, specifically Hillary ? and
Isn’t Trump easier to beat than Cruz in the general election ?
So, to sum up, (with apologies to the Godfather) Rubio is a pimp. He never cudda out fought Cruz. But I didn’t know until this very day, that it was Hillary all along.
You are definitely right. We will see every tactic the Obama team used to defend him against the legitimate concerns about the authenticity of the documents Obama provided to “prove” he was qualified for office. We will even see a few more creative tactics like this using Melania's photos to stir up Trump to help obfuscate Cruz's womanizing. The problem Cruz has is that in his case the media is not really on his side and will not go out of their way to defend him. If just one of the women comes forward with some type of tearful admission... it is basically all over.
If Cruz is anything like the serial womanizers that I have known there are most likely dozens of women and not just five or eight or whatever the official number is today or tomorrow. So women could start coming forward that no one currently has a clue about.
The bottom line is that there are investigators hired by many different interested parties who are vetting these accusations against Cruz. There is simply too much at stake. If confirmatory evidence such as tapes, videos, surveillance pictures, sworn testimonies etc become available and are believable, Cruz is done politically as a Presidential candidate and Senator, Trump will win the nomination on the first ballot. The next big political question will be if Obama allows Hillary to run or has her indicted. His worry is that a triumphant Trump may indict some of his commissars in IRS and Justice. If they turn states evidence, talk and have proof, it would be very uncomfortable for Obama and ruin his post Presidency. He may sacrifice Hillary in return for an ironclad promise from Trump not to prosecute.
This story has been brewing for weeks if not longer.
Rubio’s people just couldn’t get it out there in time to save him.
Blame Trump. Kind of like HRC blaming unnamed VRC for Bills troubles.
I hope you’re right.
A woman on Fox News this morning confirmed that the story has been in the media’s hands for “months” now. She also confirmed that it was initially shopped around by both Rubio’s people and some “anti-Trump” people. She said the anti-Trump people were ALSO anti-Cruz people, but they were definitely not pro-Trump people. She also said it was unclear how the info got into the hands of the National Enquirer, but it has been in the hands of media for months, so it is not new news.
Amanda Carpenter, one of the alleged women, deleted everything from her Twitter feed prior to March 1, 2016. A couple days ago, she had posts going back to at least April 1, 2014 (the tattoo posts), which I saw myself.
Here’s Cruz’s motivation:

“Take over the world. World domination. You know, rule everything. Rich, powerful. That sort of stuff.”
Your link only repeats the claim. It quotes no one by name. That dog won’t hunt.
The PAC that used the photo was not a Cruz surrogate. Their top contributor was an Obama supporter. This has been pointed out again and again and again with links to back it up, yet Trump supporters continue to flat out lie about it.
It seems he should sue the PAC. Since the candidates are not allowed to be involved with the PACs, he is unlikely to sue any candidate.
Do you have a link stating who the photographer is going to sue? Anything? Any evidence at all other than Trump supporters making it up as they go?
