Ted Cruz Loses Prominent Support After Siding With Violent Leftists Over Donald Trump

You have to check out this post #529 to me. I'm a hater, a trumpette, I want a dictator, I'm stupid, a cultist, and the candidate I prefer has violent rhetoric which (boo hoo, he's so mean to those Islamists and illegals) has caused the left to be violent and hatefilled, not to mention my candidate is laughing all the way to the bank. Amazing, I'm surprised I wasn't called a Benedict Arnold for switching my vote, I'm sure there are more names they can think up for me....................my feelings are so hurt..........:-)

Oh, please. Grow the hell up.

“Oops, they’re all out, Trumpsters already bought it all.”

What’s that, the revised, “I know you are but what am I” playground taunt?

[Conservative Gato]

Me, You aren't going to change my mind.

I wasn't looking to change your mind. I was just pointing out that you can't have it both ways, it's really as simple as that but if you want to nuance it, by all means, go ahead.

No, I know what I am. A thoughtful person who has looked at Trump and found him seriously wanting. A divider not a uniter as is quite evident here.

Do you trust Trump with the 'football'? A guy who says stuff like 'punch him, I'll pay your legal fees'? Ted Cruz put the responsibility for the actions of the protesters on the protesters. That was the first thing he said.

You wouldn't be bringing this up, if it hadn't hurt Cruz. Why do you think it caused a good number to turn away from Cruz?

'Shark my ol' pal, I think you have to consider the source and notice that just like the Dominionist King Cruz, they are quick to sling Scripture around (in this case it's Galatians), and ironically that passage quoted deals with "mocking God" and if anyone has mocked God in this election cycle, it is Ted Cruz if not by design, by default - first by aligning himself with that maniac Glenn Beck who is to sound Biblical teachings what e.coli is to an all-you-can-eat buffet, and Cruz was real quick to call for "awakening and energizing the Body of Christ" and "putting on the full armor of God" when he was looking for that win in Iowa, but in New Hampshire he seemed not to need that Holy Energizer he was looking for in Iowa, nor did he need any of that spiritual armor because he didn't talk about that up in the northeast, but he still wanted the votes of all those heathens.

And then in South Carolina, that evangelical wonder boy did not even carry ONE county, in what was called one of the most evangelical electorates anywhere, TRUMP won every county, with the exception of Rubio, who won 3 counties.

But be that as it may, these wise words from our Esteemed Founder should be considered:

"Don’t look now, but Trump is the only anti-establishment candidate left running. The GOPe is now backing Cruz to the hilt and he’s doing their bidding. Fiorino has come out for the GOPe big time, and is throwing all her schoolmarm charm Cruz’s way. Rubio’s a fricking amnesty traitor and Kasich is all in big government GOPe.

Thankfully, Carson has seen the light and so has Sessions and they’re backing Trump.

Cruz has let his ambition get the better of him and has lost it. He’s been thoroughly indoctrinated, corrupted and absorbed by those we’re fighting against. He’s now fighting with the GOP and the establishment political class against We The People.(emphasis mine, mkj)

And unfortunately, some of our very own have been unwittingly sucked into the GOPe vortex."

Cruz said the responsibility for the actions of the Protesters lies with the protesters. If anyone has an interest in truth, listen to the remarks--all of them

You are willingly delusional. Cruz plainly gave token blame to generic protesters knowing full well they were coordinated attacks by leftist radicals and then he went on to lay the lions share of blame for their actions on Donald Trump. Lower then low. Slimy to the core.

[Lakeshark]

Thank you, I did not know JR got as angry as I did with the Cruz insanity that happened over the weekend.

Good to know. When I expressed my own anger over what Cruz did, I was hoping I wouldn't get myself in trouble.

Now, I get to cause even more of that.......trouble........

The Neil Bush addition to the financial team was the point at which I knew that Cruz had been turned. I’ve held the savings and loan fiasco against the Bushes for decades now, and then the financial house/mortgage crisis made me wonder about the relationship of the Bushes to the money people. It is just as easy to make money crashing something as it is by building it up. Or make money for their masters.

Poor Ted jumped the shark and didn’t make it all the way over the shark pit.

*Ahem*

I am taking this as a veiled attack on my person........or at least my poster name........

:-)

Not really, just needed to interject some humor into the unfortunate subject of Ted jumping the shark.

[xzins]

I hadn’t thought of that, but, LOL, that fit, didn’t it?

:>)

The bartender says, I know you don’t have any legs...but are you having fin?

Bwahahahahah!

Oh, that was a good one. Most excellent sir.

I needed a good laugh.

It's so unfortunate they canceled our show, it could have been a blockbuster!!!

[onyx]

WOW! Miracles happen!

My longtime bestie Sharkey and my pal MKJ are FRiends on the same side!! PTL, right dearest xzins?

I hadn't seen Jim's post either, so I'm pinging some dear pals from our Sunday Show thread that was invaded this morning by a nauseating poster who tried "its" irritating best to turn it into an idiot "off topic debate."

I am so happy Donald Trump has the best of the best endorsing him ... Senator Sessions, Dr.Ben Carson, Phyliss Schafly and the long list goes on here.

God bless and keep Mr. Trump SAFE and all of his loyal supporters. May we grow in YUGE numbers!

[xzins]

Great pic with your post, Sister Onyx.

Apparently, not only is Sessions one of the longest serving senators, but he also is now its conscience.

We really need Sessions to be majority leader.

[hoosiermama]

Thanks for sharing.

[Jane Long]

Nice graphic, onyx.

Sen Sessions has been our sentinel warning. Pray we take heed.

[PA Engineer]

Thanks for the ping. I missed Jim's comment and agree as usual.

People need to spend some time listening to Dr. Carson and his positions on Islamic hate. He gets it.

Not sure where he belongs in the future administration, however there are definitely a couple of positions screaming out for him to fill.

Supporters, meh.

Trump's magnificent hair is the reason to support him. Can you imagine the Halloween costumes? Plus, he's an accomplished businessman.

It is a shame about Cruz. I had thought he would be an excellent running mate for Trump, but now, he's shot himself in the foot. Blaming Trump for the actions of violent leftists? What next, blaming crime victims for bringing it on themselves?

[plewis1250]

I’ll remind you he kicked his rear in Texas... OK, and Kansas as well.

Even Palin’s state of Alaska fell to Cruz...

You’ll notice we are only about 8% back in delegates, would be surpassing had Rubio/Kasich not played spoilers...

Once they drop out, Trump is done.
