Nevada: Ted Cruz's Launches Lightning Tour [Protester will back Sanders or Trump]
Breitbart ^ | February 22, 2016 | Adelle Nazarian

Posted on 02/22/2016 4:35:13 AM PST by Cincinatus' Wife

PAHRUMP, Nevada - Sen. Ted Cruz was heckled during a local "meet and greet" Sunday, the first of ten events in Cruz's lightning 3-day tour of the Silver State. The incident turned violent with both the heckler and a Cruz supporter getting into a physical altercation and being escorted away from the scene by police officers.

Registered Democrat Craig Bohanon, 50, shouted from the audience as Cruz spoke from a Ford pickup truck bed which was made into a stage. Mostly unintelligible, Bohanon called Cruz a liar, defended Obamacare, and called for repealing the 16th Amendment.

Cruz supporter, Don, 66, allegedly grabbed Bohanon by his neck in order to silence him.

"He was screaming in my ear and I couldn't hear anything," he told Breitbart News. "He was saying that Obamacare is something done by Congress and not by Obama. I'm just here to see Ted Cruz."

........Bohanon said he would like to see either Bernie Sanders or Donald Trump win the presidency. "Otherwise we are stuck. We are stagnant. We need somebody who can really go in there and work to make a change. Whether the change is better or worse? We need to change so we can get out of stagnation."......

When it comes to the general election...put a democrat up against a democrat...and the democrat wins every time.

Exactly.

And that snobbery and arrogance is why you guys give Cruz a bad name.

I would tell you people to stop digging, but you would think it was a leftist trick.

Ronald Reagan was no Ronald Reagan after he performed all of those liberal actions. ;-)

Nope.

That is why they are down to flinging names at people and calling everyone stupid and closet socialists.

Never try to learn and come up with a better plan, apparently.

And these guys really think they were going to beat Hillary?

Latest poll in FL showing Trump at 48 percent, in MN he’s at 50 percent.

Expect big Trump win in Nevada tomorrow, and his polling in upcoming Super Tuesday states and beyond to be in the 40’s and 50’s. Trump could actually win all 14 contests on March 1st. How will Cruz and Rubio keep their campaigns alive, no one will want to continue voting for guys who are perpetually 2nd and 3rd.

Being demeaning wins people over to your side so well! How's that working for you anti-Trump folks?

First of all, there have been few presidential candidates, at least on the republican side, who have close to Trump in terms of being demeaning. The guy actually seems to get off on insulting and belittling people. Second, I've pretty much given up hope on trying to win most of you low-info dopes over.

Again, one of you Trump supporting dopes fails to realize the ridiculousness of a comment like that, given that Trump is about the rudest crudest person ever to run for president, at least on the republican side. The guy actually seems to get off on insulting and belittling people. Do you seriously not see that?

Speaking of Nevada, did Donald Trump get the endorsement of Harry Reid yet?

I hate to think that the Donald wasted all that money supporting him for nothing.

heh.

Interesting how Cruz is reduced to campaigning from the back of a pick-up truck. Maybe the reports of money trouble in his campaign are true. We know he burned through a lot of money in IA and SC. Reports say that some of his big donors are getting nervous after his poor showing in SC (not winning a single county, and getting ZERO delegates.) Is he going to be able to mount an effective campaign in the upcoming Super Tuesday contests, of which there are 14.

We’re talking about the same state that elects Lindsey Graham every election...

Hardly a bellwether conservative stronghold.

I see your shift as a paid troll typically starts about 8:00 am each day.

It’s been 32 years since Reagan’s last election. In the last 100 years there have been 18 Presidents. Only two would be considered staunch conservatives. Reagan and Coolidge. So that’s 10% of the Presidents elected in the last 100 years. That means staunch conservatives will be disappointed 90% of the time.

“Again, one of you Trump supporting dopes “

See?

And I bet you strut around calling yourself a “true Christian”, and brag about how godly you are too.

And in some threads, they STILL can’t see that they are so hypocritical (name-calling, etc.))...

A couple of months ago, I was very neutral and would have voted either way... but the vile poison spewed in many threads has pushed me WAY back.

See?

Would you like me to compile a list of some of the horrible things your guy Trump has said about his campaign opponents, most of whom are actual conservatives, unlike him. Meanwhile, he's nothing but complimentary when it comes to scum like KGB/FSB Putin.
