Cruz slams Trump’s ‘PC’ stance on transgender public bathrooms
Washington Times ^ | 4/21/16 | None

Posted on 04/21/2016 9:26:49 AM PDT by Iowa David

Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz on Thursday said front-runner Donald Trump had defied “common sense” and embraced political correctness by coming out against North Carolina’s law barring people from using public restrooms of the opposite sex.

“He said he thought men should be able to go into the girls bathroom if they want,” scoffed Mr. Cruz, a U.S. senator from Texas. “Let me ask you, have we going stark raving mad? This is political correctness. This is nonsense.”

Cruz is done, over, nata, ziltch, finished... ...another one bit the dust...

Trump is going to take a left turn that will make your head spin. He has swung the art of the deal to pick off you guys. Now he is going for the General.

No we need someone like Bush who always stuck to the Compassionate Conservative agenda.

I am not comparing Trump to Bush because that would be absurd. But Bush was more consistent than Trump appears to be.

Always have to take the conversation to the ridiculous. First of all my kids are grown but I do gave grandchildren. No one including myself EVER allows the to go to a public restroom alone. And how dare you, you have no idea who I am or what my values are, suggest I don’t take any responsibility. Your kind is precisely why I can’t stand Donald Trump, you have excused him on every pathetic, inexcusable comment or thing he has done and then attack those who feel compelled to point out the hypocrisy.

I submit that at the very least, the document below is a forgery! And a poor one at that. Look at the signature block....it's layered over the original signature block. I've also found some inconsistencies in the other documents presented on that site but that will have to wait until I get back home later.

I agree that Trump is absolutely wrong.

I gave my word that I would bite my tongue until after the election.

My tongue is bleeding right now. It may require stitches.

THANK YOU for taking a stand on this.

” I protect my children, myself.”

So did I, but adolescents have freedom away from Mom and Dad.

That’s when they are vulnerable.

“How typical. Cruz never leads, he follows. After focus grouping.”

Personally, it sounds to me like trump is the one who is “following”. He is the one who stated, “you leave it the way it is. There have been very few complaints the way it is. People go, they use the bathroom that they feel is appropriate. There has been so little trouble.”.

That sounds more like following than leading to me.

“Cruz said America is flat on her back with her legs in the air”

He did not say that. He said, “You may have been knocked down, but America has always been best when she is lying down with her back on the mat, and the crowd has given the final count”.

Creepy? Yes. Is what you said at all factual? No.

Maybe you meant to put “<S” at the end?

“He said it would be too expensive to create special bathrooms. It is the real estate mogul in him coming out.”

He did say this. After he was asked if there should be special bathroom just for transgendered people. He also said the following:
“That would be discriminatory, in a certain way,”

This was said after he said, “you leave it the way it is. There have been very few complaints the way it is. People go, they use the bathroom that they feel is appropriate.”

So, if a child molester feels it is appropriate to go to the girls bathroom, it should be okay. Because he feels it is appropriate.

Nope.

And you will have the Donald of yesterday. The art of the deal involves leaving the initial investors (i.e. the conservatives that voted for him) broke. The he will turn to the left of center voters (i.e. where he has always resided) to put him over the top. Welcome dupe or were you always in that "downward dog" position?
