Ted Cruz Bodyguards Speak Out, Reveal Cruz’s True Character
Glenn Beck Radio ^ | April 13, 2016

Posted on 04/13/2016 12:32:31 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

When Ted Cruz visited Glenn’s house on Tuesday, Glenn took the opportunity to thank Cruz’s security detail for the job they’re doing, keeping the presidential candidate safe. Then, he put them on the spot with a question only they could answer. “Is he the real deal behind the curtain?” Glenn asked. Having a personal security detail himself, Glenn is well accustomed to situations where the most private moments are on full display to bodyguards. Glenn elaborated during his radio program on Wednesday. “You want to know who I am, you talk to my security detail,” Glenn said. “They know me because they’re with me at my worst and my best, and they see me behind stage and on stage.” Because they have a non-disclosure, security personnell aren’t supposed to answer questions like the one Glenn asked. That being said, it was the manner in which they responded, more than the words they spoke, which told Glenn everything he needed to know. “You can tell by the way people answer or don’t answer,” Glenn said. Watch the video to hear Glenn describe the experience or read the transcript below.

Below is a rush transcript of this segment, it may contain errors.

GLENN: I went up to his security detail. And I just went to thank them for the job they’re doing, keeping him safe. And then I stood there for a while. Now I know, because my security is with me on my most private moments. They have actually been in — in the room with me and my wife because they’ve had to be. Because of situations, it can get tense with my wife and I, or very intimate with my wife and I on delicate things. And so I know — you want to know who I am, you talk to my security detail. Now, they have a non-disclosure. So they can’t — but they know me because they’re with me at my worst and my best. And they see me behind stage and on stage. So I’m standing there next to his — and I know they have a non-disclosure. But you can tell by the way people answer or don’t answer. And I said, “So tell me, is he the real deal behind the curtain? Because I’m never going to see the real deal behind the curtain. In his worst moments, is he the real deal?” Immediately, without hesitation, they turned to me — we’re standing kind of in a line. They turn to me and walk in front of me and look me in the eye, and one of them — the first one said, “I have done this for a long time. I’ve protected all of them. I have never seen a man like him. No matter where he is, no matter what shape he’s in, no matter how tired, how pissed off, no matter what the scenario, I’ve never seen a man as consistently true as him. He says the same thing to your face as to your back. I’ve never seen him inconsistent.” And the other guy just kept shaking his head and said, “This guy is the real deal. He’s the real deal.”

PAT: That’s awesome.

GLENN: That was really awesome.

STU: Yeah, because I asked your security about that and they just looked up at the ceiling and ran away. I thought that was weird.

PAT: Well, they have a non-disclosure. They can’t talk about that.

GLENN: Honestly, that’s how you would respond. I can’t talk about it. That’s how you would do it.

In Beck's color swirled world, he thinks they are protecting god.

Glenn sounds like he wants to give Ted a reach around. Also a little weird that Glenn likes to apparently put on a show for the security guards.

If they want to keep their jobs, what the hell else are they going to say?

This is just stupid.

Thanks for posting this.

Whatever else one can say of Beck, I believe him to be honest - and a decent judge of character...

I still think Cruz is a better choice than Trump. That said, Beck was one big mistake.

Oh, and...

I went up to his security detail. And I just went to thank them for the job they’re doing, keeping him safe. And then I stood there for a while. Now I know, because my security is with me on my most private moments. They have actually been in — in the room with me and my wife because they’ve had to be. Because of situations, it can get tense with my wife and I, or very intimate with my wife and I on delicate things. And so I know — you want to know who I am, you talk to my security detail. Now, they have a non-disclosure. So they can’t — but they know me because they’re with me at my worst and my best. And they see me behind stage and on stage.

Blah blah blah blah blah. Get to the frickin' point already!

Can you imagine Glenn Beck having free access to the Oval Office? He’s a walking fire alarm sound - Evacuate!

In SC Beck said that Cruz was sent by God to guide us thru the rapture, and that Scalia’s death was part of God’s plan to get us to vote for Cruz. (Cruz didn’t win a single county in SC.)

In NV Beck said that Trump supporters were “brownshirts.”

In UT Beck claimed that Cruz was the fulfillment of Mormon prophecy.

The other day Beck compared Cruz to Moses.

Beck sounds like someone who should be holed-up in a compound with a stockpile of Kool-Aid.

The fact that Cruz continues to campaign with this nutcase says a lot about Cruz.

Ted is mind numbingly stupid sometimes. And it will kill him. He actually tweeted this. It's as brain dead stupid as Obama's 57 states perfidy;

65K Coloradans voted--they just voted against Trump. That's 11 elections in a row we've won. #WhiningIsntWinning https://t.co/m0NrRh5mFu— Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) April 11, 2016

“Still trusting my own instincts - Ted Cruz is a lying phony douche.”

Well, I don’t have to trust my instincts to know Trump is a lying phony douche, because that is publicly documented.

“Now I know, because my security is with me on my most private moments...”

How much security does Beck really need?
