The incredible shallowness of Ted Cruz’s say-anything presidential campaign
Dallas Morning News ^ | 4/22./16 | Micheal Lidenberger

Posted on 04/22/2016 3:43:54 AM PDT by fortheDeclaration

Sen. Ted Cruz’s presidential campaign is a machine with a broken off switch, and it’s America’s terrible, rotten, no-good luck to have to watch it play on until its batteries die. His is a shallow campaign, energetically devoted to winning votes on the cheap. He continues to ask the very least of the same America he wants to lead. This morning he blasted Donald Trump for being soft on the bathroom issue. “Gosh, he thought that men should be able to go into the girls’ bathroom if they want to,” he told a crowd hundreds strong in Frederick, Md., reports Washington bureau chief Todd Gillman. “Have we gone stark raving nuts?” Trump’s offending comments? Earlier Trump had been asked about North Carolina’s ...

When did he ridicule North Carolina?

If you’ve given up lying for Cruz as you said, why are you still lying about what Trump said?

Do you enjoy aiding and abetting the left now? Are you that bitter about your candidate losing that you can’t stop lying?

Shame on you.

Give it up. Trump basically said that what North Carolina did was stupid. You want the exact quote? Look it up. I'm sure you can spin it to make it seem like he didn't mean what he said. I'll be here.

Look, you can enjoy lying and mischaracterizing until the cows come home, and it won't change what he said.

I gave you the link, have now heard it multiple times, so I know what was said and what wasn't along with the context; all you Cruzers just looooove to lie through your teeth about what was said.

Shame on you.

All you are doing is helping the totalitarian left, you should know better.

But you don't.

Will you ever stop lying and aiding everything you once claimed to be against?

At this point, I don't think you are capable of doing so.

It's on the video, why don't you mischaracterize it for us once more?

Honestly, why don't you just go to some leftist site and help Soros & co. there?

It goes to the core of what your priorities are.

Yes, it most certainly does.

Are your priorities putting this country back to work, back to the path to prosperity? OR are they on fighting social conflicts to the bitter end?

There is not a single issue in this country that is not rooted in moral turpitude.

If your priority is the latter, you will find yourself more and more marginalized over time, as the past four decades have proven.

Without the latter, you will not have the former.

We would like to have you as part of a successful political coalition, but if you’re that unable to see the forest for the trees, we’re better off without you.

Quite the other way around, but so be it.

That your fellow Americans are largely on the knife edge of financial ruin should be a higher priority to you, if you had any morals worth a damn.

LOL! Oh the irony!

Tell me exactly what he said about North Carolina passing a law which protected women from being forced to share bathrooms with men.

Tell me exactly.

Then tell me how I lied.

Looks like Texas knows its own. Cruz is done and after the schlonging he is going to receive in the next 5-6 primaries the calls for him to GTFO are going to be coming from everywhere. Ted will be forced out. He is not going to be allowed to go to Cleveland and burn the house down.

I posted this to you once, if you listen to what he actually said, and then follow your lying posts, the ones that claim Trump is a LBGT supporter, and wants perverts to go into kids going to the bathroom, etc., you might actually see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Em5o7udaDig

Might I add: Your bitterness over your failed candidate is only helping the totalitarian left, the very thing you claim to fight.

You have learned well from that turd of a candidate you support.

Tell me EXACTLY what he said about North Carolina passing common sense legislation to protect women and little girls from having to share bathroom facilities with men.

You keep pointing me to a video. Just write down what you think he said and then tell me where I am lying.

Personally I thought he was ridiculing North Carolina and saying that what they did was stupid.

Prove me wrong.

I gave you the link.

I leave it up to you to mischaracterize what he said, considering it's what you have done since.

As you have done since the interview.

You're very good at lying, you have learned well at the feet of Turd Ted.

Shame on you.

PM I give you credit for trying to have a serious discussion, but I think the Trump supporters are so invested in their guy they won't change their view of him.

You accuse me of lying about what Trump said or what he meant and you refuse to tell me exactly what he said about what North Carolina did.

If you refuse to quote Trump on the issue then you have no business calling people liars.

That is what people like you do. You accuse people of lying but you can’t back it up.

Shame on YOU.

LOL, that's great!

You made a really good point earlier when you pointed out that the lgbt is the mark of the beast (or something to that effect). I hadn't thought about it, but anyone who does stand up to this PC deconstruction of civilization loses their job and is publicly humiliated.

I'm sure that Trump's anti-PC talk inspires a lot of people that he can change the trend. It's a shame they aren't seeing how much of a leftist he is on social issues.

Scary isn't it?

I remember 4 years ago FReepers arguing about candidates but I don't remember it becoming so personal. I may be wrong, but I don't think so. Now if you point out a flaw in Trump you're a "liar" supporting a "liar" etc.etc..

Maybe you should stop just making things up, it's surprising what a little evidence will do.

First lie : LBGTrump. He’s never said anything favoring their community.

Second lie : He wants to subject others by allowing transgenders to use any bathroom they want. He never said anything like that.

Third lie : He wants to change the NC law to force them to change their bathrooms. He never said anything like that.

Your Cruzer talking points are divisive, ugly, and only help the totalitarian left.

Way to go, helping everything you claim to hate.
