Club for Growth Action is claiming it took down Donald Trump in Iowa, and that it plans to do it again in South Carolina.

The group, which has been consistently attacking Trump's conservative credentials for months, plans to hit the real estate mogul with a $1.5 million ad buy in the state that will start running Saturday on TV and digital platforms.

Trump took down Trump in IA by not investing the time and effort in establishing a solid GOTV effort.

This effort will fail.

No. Trump’s loss in Iowa was certainly with the margin of error of some polls, that’s why as a Cruz fan, I didn’t not get overly excited

I want Cruz to win, but not at the expense of tens of millions of RINO money being poured against donald, OR Cruz for that matter.

they can go to ####

The sponge that Trump is to establishment attacks thanks you for $1,500,000 in more free media.

He hardly went down - Cruz only had one more delegate than he did coming out of Iowa. I’d hardly call that a take down.

That’s true, even with his lack of time and real effort, he came in 2nd. The Club for Growth ads had no impact from what I can see.

One of CRuz’s largest donors, Robert Mercer (he’s given CRuz over $31MILLION), has given $750,000 to the Club for (Mexico’s) Growth.

Club for Growth has given CRuz over $750K.

See how this works?

Tell me CRuz is NOT owned by the amnesty loving/Cheap labor express cabal.

Nothing conservative about the Club for Growth coming into my office and demanding a $1M contribution, which naturally, they did not get.

After hearing the news that they would not be able to extort $1M from me, they went hostile w/ a series of incorrect & ill-informed ads.
