Cruz Uses Carter's Words in Anti-Trump Ad
Breitbart ^ | 02/04/2016 | Michelle Fields

Posted on 02/04/2016 5:54:19 PM PST by MLL

Republican presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) 97% used former President Jimmy Carter’s words to bash Donald Trump in a new ad.

Cruz’s new ad uses a clip of former President Jimmy Carter telling the British Parliament that he would rather have Trump as president than Cruz.

“Trump has proven already that he’s completely malleable,” Carter says. “I don’t think he has any fixed opinions that he would really go to the White House and fight for.”

The ad then touts Carter’s assessment of Cruz.

“Ted Cruz is not malleable,” Carter says. “He has far right-wing policies, in my opinion, that would be pursued aggressively if and when he would become president.”

NOTE THE WORD "MALLEABLE." Describes Trump perfectly.

Yeah, it’s going to be a Rubio-fest from here on in if they can pull it off.

I predicted the top three would get about the same number of delegates in Iowa. At this point I think NH will do the same. And if Trump can not win convincingly in the North or Midwest he won’t do any better in the south. I think you are right about that. SC will be the decisive state I think.

CArter’s words expose what the establishment already knows that Trump is a phony. That is why establishment fossils hate Cruz and know they could deal with Chump

So, if ISIS endorses Cruz Trump should run an ad? You know, Carter could just as well as said anything about anybody. The fact that Cruz would use this is just an ongoing un-Christian slimy style politics. There is no difference between this and scamming Carter voters.

Hopefully that wont happen. Us Floridians know what Rubio is all about. He is a lying GOPe hack and on behalf of all Floridians, we apologize for believing his lies when he ran for the Senate. We regret voting for him.

You southerners don't like petulant, arrogant, loud-mouth New Yorkers in love with themselves?

And we westerns don't much care for sleazy politicians. Old Jimmy can still play you fools like a violin with just the simplest reverse physiology. I mean think about it, your gonna let carter influence your choices.

Some scarey scenarios: "Trump can't control...." and.."Trump has been...." and "If he wins"..."Trump's been really smart!"

Trump's numbers weren't there in Iowa and he melted down!

Nothing is certain until people have voted.

Which of those other faulty polls do you want to stake your lottery money on?

Yes, nothing is certain until the votes are cast. In Iowa Trump received one less delegate than Cruz and 6000 votes less. Apparently Ted may have employed some dirty tricks and was also this cycle’s Huckabee ideologically. Made sense, and the polls were not far off right at the end.

Give Ted and Donald credit, they both gained historic Iowa caucus vote totals. The polls weren’t that far off during the last days so let’s see if NH tightens up for Ted.
