Glenn Beck Turns on Ted Cruz, Says He Should Have Backed Marco Rubio Instead
Mediaite ^ | September 26, 2016 | Alex Griswold

Posted on 09/26/2016 10:52:07 AM PDT by Trump20162020

After enthusiastically endorsing and campaigning for Ted Cruz in the 2016 Republican presidential primary, radio talk show host Glenn Beck admitted he made an error and said he should have supported Marco Rubio instead.

Beck had just finished a contentious interview with Cruz, in which he quizzed the Texas Senator about supporting Donald Trump after making a public show of not endorsing him. “For the very first time I heard Ted Cruz calculate,” he said after the commercial break.

“And when that happened, the whole thing fell apart for me,” he continued. “And it’s my fault. It’s my fault for believing that men can actually be George Washington.”

Brilliant gif. A little toon to go with it.

Stabby the Clown is so sad, he may drop his knife. Or disembowel himself with it.

So sad, so lachrymose and woebegone.

As I said awhile back, it is just a matter of time before Beck and his entire business and personal empires are bankrupt.

My prediction is Beck'll revert to his former chronic alcoholism. Hard times will take him down to find strength, courage and inspiration in the bottom of a bottle.

So as sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
And then the harder they come
The harder they'll fall, one and all

Hey, if I can’t love my first LOSER...I’ll be sure to pick another LOSER!

I was a strong Cruz backer, but Cruz was NOT the winner - PERIOD.

After that, you MUST pick the most Conservative person available, and like-it-or-not, that is Trump!

Glenn Beck lost me over two years ago - I even went to two of his “big events”. Good info, great feel-goodism, but otherwise, he is just out to make Glenn some money.

For some reason, Beck and his “yuck-yuck” boys couldn’t seem to understand Cruz’ rationale and were very upset. No wonder their listeners have gone away - their show has gone off the rails and straight into the toilet.

Beck made Cruz into some kind idol and projected all this wants and dreams on him.

Plus, Beck invested a lot of money on Cruz so that's got to leave a mark.

Marcos wouldn’t have wasted as much time with Beck, once it was clear he was dealing with a delusional individual who believed his own (bad) press.

I hope I never see him at the Southlake Central Market, because he’ll get an earful if that happens.

Cheetos face said he’s going to the mountains.

The mountains don't want him and the valleys threw him out.

I hope Beck is among those leaving the US if Trump is elected.

Why hasn’t Beck been institutionalized? Long overdue!

“...that men can actually be George Washington.”

Beck’s a little old to be learning this now.

This reminds me, I need to change the preset button on my radio. So tired of being preached at by a lunatic.

Marco is backing Trump. Gave a very well-reasoned speech at the convention.

Let’s face it. Ted had some personal issues with Donald Trump. Trump apologized. Sort of. And Ted eventually accepted the apology. Sort of. As for Glenn Beck, he is a very talented man. But, sometimes, I wonder where is his faith. God is in charge. We don’t know what is His will for the country. We would like to think He will forgive us our sins as a nation, and save us from the ruination we deserve. But, God will not be mocked. There’s a reason Trump is our candidate. Let us pray that it is to lead us to victory.

Rubio also said he’d vote for Donald Trump.

I think Beck has gone schizo on us...again.
