Ted Cruz Says Donald Trump's Voters Have "relatively low information" And Are "not that engaged"
CBN News ^ | March 10, 2016 | David Brody

Posted on 03/10/2016 6:23:01 AM PST by VitacoreVision

GOP presidential candidate Ted Cruz tells The Brody File that the reason Donald Trump is performing well in the GOP race for president is because his voters are uninformed and not engaged in the process. “Donald does well with voters who have relatively low information, who are not that engaged and who are angry and they see him as an angry voice. Where we are beating him is when voters’ get more engaged and they get more informed.” Hunch: I’m thinking Trump and his “Silent Majority” may push back on this just a bit don’t you think? Lots to unpack here but for now, here’s the clip.

Our interview was done Wednesday afternoon in Miami.

“I hope Trump brings this up in the debate tonight and smashes it in UntrusTed’s face tonight.

Trump needs to rip of the mask and reveal the true Cruz.”

I hope so too! Cruz is so entrenched in the “establishment” it is great to see the truth come out! I heard Carly this morning say she knows NOTHING about Cruz meeting with Bush. Sure she does know NOTHING since her move to endorse Cruz was NOT a wise step! Just look at her statements against Trump and then just take a look at her past as a CEO, and her wonderful PAC money during her run in CA and then for President. Controlled? You BETCHA!

Now we have Chuck Norris saying he did NOT endorse Cruz.
And now I found out I am a “low information voter”. :)

I have been smiling every day seeing the TRUTH shine so beautifully on ALL of the “insiders”!

GO TRUMP!!

Smart move Ted. For the second time in the last six months Ted is calling us stupid.

First it was because we weren’t in favor of giving Obama TPA like Ted was.

Now it is because we think a businessman would do a better job of getting the economy going than him.

This stupid move by Cruz will cost him even more support. I know I really liked Cruz until he called me stupid the first time.

You mean TRUMP reflects the culture of today, the state of discourse, in a fundamentally transformed America, with a fundamentally transformed population where the Middle Class and working stiffs are fuming?

It’s true. TRUMP probably does represent the ALL AMERICAN primal scream, and it seems to be hitting home just fine.

“Donald Trump does not even understand the issues and you guys give him a pass.”

Donald Trump understand business and trade deals, illegal immigration and how both have hurt the middle/working class and America as a whole, better than anyone up there.

“Low information is the absolute correct words.”

And High Misinformation works for you.

So more than half of his supporters who readily admit trump would be their second choice amidst the plethora of 5-17 candidates.... Are now considered low information voters? low information voters... right Teddy, the man is an idiot.

He insults more than half his supporters as being stupid. He just shot himself in the foot.

Teddy, if you ever read this... STOP sending me the thrice weekly money requests. CEASE AND DESIST. You are not smart enough to be in office.

Ridiculous to put all Republicans in one bucket, Ted Bush.

The refreshing presentation of TRUMP is that he always pleads, “GUILTY, as charged”.

Who does that?

He’s simple and authentic, while being MENSA smart himself, a producer who turned a million dollar inheritance into 10 Billion.

And... he doesn’t have a wife who was anywhere near an assignment issued by the CFR, while with Goldman Sachs, on a warm and fuzzy paper known as the North American Community.

“I don’t respect you, I question your faith, I question your motives, and I question your sanity because there’s no rational, decent person who can still think Drumpf is what you think he is.”

Why, demshateGod, what an ugly thing to say. Does this mean we’re not friends anymore?

How many times do you have to be told?

TRUMP pleads, “GUILTY, as charged”.

Next?

FACTS very much in evidence.

Ted Cruz is a liar. Cruz himself is dependent on the lowest-IQ ten percent of the population for his votes.

I guess we have to put Cruz in the Establishment Camp. He used to be a big time Bush guy and he is in bed with Goldman Sachs and the Trial Lawyers. He is a Fraud and his true roots are coming home.

“I was insulted the moment a foreign born, Bush lackey 44 year old lawyer, first term congressman with NO executive experience announced a run for president.”

As for business talent, he could run a Dairy Queen franchise, but only if his wife was a working partner : )

That’s because he only marries woman who don’t have a problem with the fact that he’s aleady married and cheating on his current wive. In other words, they prefer a sugar daddy to using their brains.

Lord deliver us from Climbin’ Cruz. He is the real poseur in this race.

He lost me with TPA, and “pathway to legalization”, both maneuvers representing the march toward the North American Union.

Always it’ *after* the fact of his deeds that he chortles excuses, in his very best harrumph voice, blaming the duplicity of others, or his own “tricky” strategery.

A genius speaks. Not.

It’s the difference in delivery in many cases. A lot of the things taken out of context are things Trump said in jest, humor or in a positive way.

The “I love the lowly educated” comment was re: winning the “highly educated and the lowly educated”, I love the lowly educated... It was meant in an endearing way not an insulting way.
