Ted Cruz, John Kasich join forces to stop Donald Trump
CNN ^ | April 24, 2016 | David Mark

Posted on 04/24/2016 8:04:15 PM PDT by Trump20162020

Ted Cruz and John Kasich issued startling statements Sunday night about their paths ahead, the first sign the two campaigns are coordinating to deny Donald Trump the Republican presidential nomination.

Within minutes of each other, the pair issued statements saying they will divide their efforts in upcoming contests with Cruz focusing on Indiana and Kasich devoting his efforts to Oregon and New Mexico. The strategy is aimed at blocking Trump from gaining the 1,237 delegates necessary to claim to GOP nomination this summer.

It’s a filthy mess only because your guy is getting jack hammered. Those who get desperate resort to desperate actions. They’ve got nothing to lose, get it?

It appears those who own Cruz and Kasich told them to drop the separate candidate shtick and team up against Trump.

How filthy is that?

I wholeheartedly supported Cruz until his campaign sent out those mailers in Iowa that showed your voting record to your neighbors and theirs to you, and resulted in considerable outrage.

“Informing on your neighbor” is not a tactic a “Constitutional Conservative” would employ.

And when the reaction from the Cruz campaign to the outcry was pretty much, “Hey, it’s an effective tactic and has been used in other states” ... Well, that just made it twice as bad.

Trump's hovering right at 49% nationally right now. Within the MOE, that means that a majority does want Trump, and that's in a 3-way race. In a 2 way race, Trump is way over 50%.

I'm not talking about polls. I am talking about the mathematical results of the 32 state primaries/caucuses held thus far.

You're a GOPe/Cruz fanboy, obviously, and NeverTrump as well, to be parroting such GOPe bullsh!t.

My posting history clearly shows otherwise. I will vote for the nominee. I am not a fan of Cruz. Citing math facts is not GOPe bullsh*t.

Everyone can see your true colors shining through, and that goes double for your collapsing candidates and their failed campaign.

I have no candidate. So I certainly don't have a collapsing candidate with a failed campaign. What you see shining through is objectivism.

Cruz became political cancer a little after Iowa.

I think he knows this, is playing his role in exchange for an insider position. Or for money and a big job at a Goldman Sachs type company.

I’m not sure what your beef is here. You seem to be unhappy that one candidate isn’t capturing a mathematical majority of the vote. Well, ok, but that’s just not how this particular race is shaking out.

What is clear, is that there’s one candidate who’s been clearly dominant, almost from the beginning. There’s no question that the largest share of voter support goes to Trump.

What is really amazing to witness is seeing this truth unfold:

They are ALL UniParty. That means they are ALL OWNED. NO ONE gets through to be a candidate who is NOT OWNED. PERIOD.

Bush=Cruz=Clinton=Kasick=Rubio=
ALL pledge allegiance to the same entity, the Globalist Cabal, who are their masters.

That’s why they are ALL FREAKING OUT over Donald Trump.

He didn’t need their dirty money. He circumvented their “Closed Shop” and exposed them for who they are:

That’s why they will NEVER WILLINGLY ALLOW DJT TO take the Presidency, without using every last option they have, including violence.

Everyone needs to realize this will come to a head, come Hell or High Water, THIS YEAR.

Ted Cruz is way behind Trump! He cannot beat Trump in the popular vote but claims he can beat Hillary.....are people really that gullible to believe that nonsense?

Before Iowa I donated to that @ss Cruz 4 times.
Might as well been giving it to Hillary.

Cruz is over, except as a stage tool for his dad to lay hands on to expel demons.

He didn’t start off that way, but he’s willing to be or do anything in order to get elected at this point.
