If this is the case that Trump set up Cruz, was Cruz just to stupid to know the blowback from the delegates or DID CRUZ KNOW he would take over the media cycle thus putting a damper on the R convention!!! In my eyes Cruz is just slime plain and simple and EVERYONE thinks Trump has a massive ego, Cruz has him beat by a mile!!!!!
I find it hard to believe that Trump knew exactly what Cruz would say because Cruz went 13 mins over his allotted time.
I’ve heard different versions but one was, supposedly from an insider, that Trump was there to accept Cruz’s pseudo endorsement.
“DID CRUZ KNOW he would take over the media cycle thus putting a damper on the R convention!!!”
Worse, he stepped all over Mike Pence’s day.
The guy who went out on a limb and endorsed him before the Indiana primary.
GREAT point, mrsmith. Everybody forgot Mike Pence’s excellent speech because they were still buzzing over Toxic Ted’s betrayal and political suicide, live on TV for all to see.
I don’t know either. Rush today said Trump knew ahead of time (about Cruz’ non-endorsement), yet all the talking heads on FNC and CNN last night said Trump and his family did NOT know what Ted was going to say. The talking heads were all incredulous that a presidential candidate had not seen all the speeches that were to be given at the convention.
Boy, was Beck PO’ed. LOL!
ROTFLOL!! I didn't know about that, missed it somehow. Wow, I wish I could have been there to see that in person. ;-D
LOL! Apparently so...
You know I NEVER thought about the endorsement by Pence of Cruz aspect of this, it makes Cruz even MORE DISPCABLE!!! He absolutely ripped the Pence speech and introduction to the nation from him BASTARD!!!
Uh! Yeah! Quit listening to Rush and cancelled my 24/7 because of his love fest for Cruz and his anti-Trump/supporters. I'm not the only one, I know.
Your recollection is correct. And, the rest that didn't show up, and like Cruz, would not endorse Trump, have all been proven (again) to be liars!
Typical tactic to divert attention and responsibility when you are unwilling to acknowledge the facts.
As for Beck AND Trump, let them defend their OWN comments and conduct.
And, as far as the bridge Kenny has to sell me, Kenny obviously already bought that bridge and is trying to unload his mistake on me. :)
With the binary choice available, I, as most Cruz supporters I assume, will vote for the lesser of two evils and hope Trump can grow into a leader that can avoid the caustic personal attacks which has marked his campaign.
Ah-ha! There you go! LOL.
AMEN! I don’t care how outstanding an orator he is, I don’t care how much of a brilliant debater he is, there is nothing that’s going to erase that ick factor in my mind.
Cruz stinks. He’s a phony, a liar, a creep, a major drama queen and hogs all of the air out of the room. I can’t understand how anyone cannot see through him.
I love the condescending attitude towards Trump as well, lol.
Well, he said on his Twitter feed "I saw his speech two hours early but let him speak anyway. No big deal!"
As far as going over 13 mins., maybe he just slowed it down to savor every minute of his UNendorsement.
I think Rush nailed itManafort is a genius.
He knew he would win no matter what dirty teddy did!
He needs a great speech tonight and we will be off to a great start.
He will deliver. This is showtime and the Donald excels in that arena.
I love the condescending attitude towards Trump as well, lol."
We all have flaws in our character, but then maybe you are the exception.
I don't buy bridges from people I don't trust. You should do the same. :-)
