Pathetic – Ted Cruz and John Kasich Announce Joint “Never Voters Campaign” To Stop Donald Trump…
Conservative Treehouse ^ | 4/25/2016 | Sundance

Posted on 04/25/2016 6:14:50 AM PDT by GilGil

As a direct consequence of the growing support for candidate Trump, and with looming electoral defeat on the horizon, the Ted Cruz campaign now places all its “never voter” efforts on stopping Donald Trump from winning Indiana. However, Donald Trump is also polling ahead of Cruz in Indiana – so the Cruz campaign approach throws a Hail-Mary.

In an effort to improve fleeting chances, Team Cruz has struck a deal with the Kasich campaign. Team Kasich is to pull out of Indiana, and Team Cruz will give them free reign in New Mexico and Oregon.

Since Trump announced in June 2015, he has thrown open curtain after curtain to show the American voter how corrupt America's politicians are and what they have done to America and the American people, within our own Country and what they have done to us with Foreign Countries...

He has shown us how dirty the ‘voting’ process is, he's shown us how dirty the ‘delegates’ process is, and he is now shown us how really dirty the RNC Party, those that manage and run it are...(Cruz and Kaysick joining together)...

With all this happening, we as Americans have opened our eyes and now we see what is going on...with Trump showing us the how, why, what and when of things, the corrupted people that have been running America are so bitterly afraid that Trump will show us more, and he will...if this scheme of Cruz and Kaysick doesn't work, there is only one more try left and we do not want to go there, WE don't want to go there, but the Corrupted people of our Government will...

So I am asking all of you, to pray for Mr. Trump, and his family, and for America and her people from now till Mr. Trump takes office as POTUS...God hears us, and we, the American People have chosen Mr. Trump to be our next POTUS, and if it's in God's will, he will be...His last name is Trump=Trumpet....

Here you are, a FReeper for 15 years with an impressive 5 page posting history.

What’s your handle over at DU, or is it at GOPe headquarters where you spend most of your time?

In either case, why should every day FReepers pay any attention to you?

Anybody but Carter Movement 1976

Shame on us Republicans, we should have had similar unity effort in 2008 with Anybody but McCain and in 2012 with Anybody but Romney and knocked them off state by state due to tactical internecine cooperation

The plot sci history lesson for the day. Let's not all feign surprise and outrage over a political tactic that's been around since most of us were in diapers. If it is too hot, I recommend getting out of the kitchen.

Art of the deal. Trumpsters cry and moan too much.

So says a FReeper of almost 11 years with a whopping 2 page posting history.

I call people like you election year sleeper trolls.

I really don’t care if you or anyone else pays attention to me. I just comment about what interests me. Please forgive me for touching a soft spot in your pschye.

If Ted sees Trump at 40 percent and himself at 22, why doesn’t he submit to the voters decision?

Because, looking at your numbers, he sees 60% are for someone other than Trump, and believes he can persuade a majority of convention delegates to vote for him. (Lincoln, in 1860, had 22% on the first ballot.)

Everything the Canadian has done this season has convinced me he is a slime bucket.

I think it would be more accurate to say "Everything the minions of The Donald and twitter feed press have told you Cruz has done this season..."

Going back to primary sources, listening to the speeches or statements in contest and their entirety might have given you a different opinion. Your use of pejoratives, however, may well indicate that you are not open to facts, your mind was made up.

If you guys do your internet homework and Google them by yourself you will find your answer. For example Birch Bayh, Morris Udall, Jimmy Carter, former Pres. LBJ teamed with Richard J. Daley etc etc You'll find it.

Half the reason Trump folk often piss and cray about "unfairness" is that they often have shown they have little institutional knowledge to point them in the direction to see this is none other than politics not necessarily out of the ordinary. And the other half which fuels their misplaced wrath is very poor familiarity with the state GOP parties schedules and details and steps a candidate's team must be organized and on the field of play; otherwise a default due to political ignorance which they irresponsibly cry as "rigged." Were I a Trump supporter I'd be more angry at Trump than Cruz, over the former's wasting of my time by not getting a solid team onboard totally wired tight on the situations, throwing Manafort in the mix when its alms I too late to sweep an all out First Ballot win.

The proof you’ve been prattling about. Satisfied?<>Truth hurts doesn’t it? I’ll accept your apology for insinuating I am making Democrat and Republican Party history up. Now will you admit Mr Trump has little to whine about and has only himself and his neophyte campaign operatives he brought over from Trump International did not serve him very well and may well have snatched defeat from the jaws of victory?

Now, we are mentally deranged trolls for not agreeing and marching in lockstep with you? For having backed a different candidate? Just some Troll whose signup date was years before yours?

Look in the mirror pal.

It is interesting how things around here have changed.

Well, I’ll make an observation. Trump is NO conservative. He’s a self-dealing charlatan and he’s got a lot of fall-for-anything chump types fooled.

Mark Levin is my friend and a friend of FR and a friend of Liberty. I’ll thank you not to trash him on this website.

------------------------------------------------

Now, since we're all the bastards of Free Republic, I don't expect this post to last much longer than I do around here, but I'm going to say my piece.

A large group of posters here have abandoned principle for personality. They have embraced a guy who in this campaign has backed Planned Parenthood, the EPA, abortion, and a host of other things that cannot be described as conservative in any way. That candidate has played to your emotions, and you took the hook, deep.

He has engaged people to smear his opponents---even his twitter feeds start with pejoratives when it is someone he disagrees with, regardless of whom, whether Ted Cruz, a Saudi Prince and former business associate, or people he is turning on now.

Do you think it is an accident that each set of successive smears, including the National Enquirer article were timed to gain traction before but not be debunked until after a set of primaries?

Silly people, Trump has a entire marketing department on the payroll, and he knows how to time a product release for maximum market effect.

He whines about how the media is against him even as he dominates it, leaving no time for others, because even the whining is a story. But he is a reality TV star, and understands the celebrity game. There is no bad publicity if that is the game you are playing and your fans (yes, FANS, because you can't even articulate his past positions and reconcile them with his present ones--you don't know the Donald, only the image) will lap every copy of the tabloids on the supermarket end caps, and that's how you make money.

You have gone from dismissing blog posts as hearsay and using more reputable sources to decrying long term reputable sources in favor of the ones which tell you what soothes your emotional fervor, facts be damned.

In the past, your candidate has had business dealings that included backing the Clintons, and has not only tried to use Kelo to take private property for fun and profit, but tried to hire the woman's lawyer away in the middle of the case.

Nothing conservative about that. Talk about 'dirty tricks'!

He is playing you. He's been in the casino business, and he knows how to do that, too.

Oh yeah, this is politics like you've never seen it--and you're fish out of water.

If that is what you insist is good and right for America, so be it, If enough of you insist on it, you get the government you deserve. Either way, the rest of us are just along for the ride, provided that train even leaves the station.

But if you think his cronies and former donation recipients the Clintons don't know where his bodies are buried, and won't make what has been said and seen here look like the 'special' league game held before the Pros take the field, then you aren't in touch with reality.

Not one of the smears against Cruz withstands scrutiny.

You have to rationalize away the things Trump has admittedly or verifiably done and said, and every one of those incremental course changes has brought you to a reciprocal heading.

Now if saying that is "making an ass of myself" this place needs a herd of asses. Consider yourself reproved.

I am standing up for the Constitution of this Republic so many of us here pledged to defend against any enemy, foreign or domestic. If I get banned for that, then I'll wear it like a medal and I'll wear it proudly.

So go for it, call the boss, feel important. That should be enough to get you your little gold star you crave.
