That National Enquirer Ted Cruz "bombshell" confirmed a huge nothingburger
Twitter ^ | 2/24/2016 | Some guy who took a picture

Posted on 03/24/2016 3:53:37 PM PDT by 20yearsofinternet

Link goes directly to picture of the article that's good enough to read.

FULL Disclosure: I'm not a Cruz supporter, but I hate this kind of sleaze and I'm hoping that we can put this to rest before it gets submitted 500 times.

The entire article is based off of the threat from a hoax "Anonymous" account on Twitter, which later turned out to be a RickRoll (all related tweets have since been deleted). I am pretty sure the "details" are actually lifted from replies to the original tweet, LOL. Since they're deleted, I can't be sure. Point being, it was all a hoax and there's nothing there at all, and that's what the article is based off of.

Anyway, just wanted to put it out there that it's typical NE trash, not one of their once-per-decade real bombshells.

Carry on with the War of the Wives. :)

They are lucky this is coming out on Good Friday when a lot of people will otherwise be on the road, going places to visit family.

With that said, I don’t know how the “outed” women play this, especially Katrina Pearson, who is on the Trump campaign or the woman that was allegedly on the Fiorina campaign.

Trump, for one, is best suited just sitting back and watching to see if this scandal turns into a potential Herman Cain or Gary Hart deal breaker for Cruz.

What did Mitt know and when did he know it?
What did Reince know and when did he know it?
GOPe just lost Congress.

The ‘brand’ took a hard hit.

I think Trump should join the Libertarians. This is a nasty brand that nobody should want to be associated with.

Bringing this sleaze to Cleveland...

I think it is legit, for several reasons (no denial, odder than usual fake outrage of Cruz in last day or so, confirmation from Wash Times columnist, Breitbart writer, Cruz emails in Ashley Madison dump from last year, Nat Enq running with it knowing that Cruz is a brilliant lawyer...)

NRO is toast.
Rich Lowery is done.
Ben Shapiro is done.
Trump managed to expose the establishment lies directly to the American people. And they called him names.

By the way, Twitter shut it down earlier in the evening.

Hillary has got to be freaking out right now. She has no idea what will be in store for her.

Who at Breitbart, spiked the story?

I’ll be interested to see how Shapiro tries to spin this. I’m curious about the others who resigned last week from BB also—they all kind of fell on their swords over Trump v. Cruz, more than Michelle Fields incident.

So much backstabbing and gossip by many BB elites, all claiming they can barely stand to get a paycheck from BB—because management “favors” Trump.

The media has to cover this now.The main story is being corroborated and now additional sources are starting to add more details and fill in the innuendo gaps.

When Trump gets asked to comment, Trump just says “That’s between Ted and his wife.”

As for the Cruz camp, I have no idea how they deny this and move forward.
This is already way beyond dismissing this as a typical NE bit of sensational writing.

There is a deafening silence from the Cruz side. I can’t imagine those meetings tonight.

I haven’t seen anyone take credit or lay blame for spiking it.

Just a few BB folks saying they were told to sit on it. I don’t really follow them, I’ve only been there a couple times to be honest, but tonight I have been following.

Given that, I may have missed if someone laid this at someone else’s feet or fessed up for hushing it.

How do you know his faith is shaky? Geez... only God knows what is truly in a man’s heart.

A knowledgable Christian does not go into a Mormon church and accept their adulation as fulfillment of prophecy. He should know better than to befriend such as Beck and Romney. Their Mormon religion teaches that they can become gods over their own planet if they tithe and do good for their faith. They even have to wear special underwear. They are a cult.

Teddy Bare is a slimy lying lawyer and that is all he has been. He represented the State of Texas and he represented the Chinese Communists. Anything for a buck...

O’Reilly just confirmed it.
Breitbart had it in February and Ben Shapiro spiked it.

Rubio was trying to get it pushed out for Super Tuesday. Explains why he had that 3-2-1 strategy, right? He was going to take the whole shebang.

-—By the way, Twitter shut it down earlier in the evening.

still going strong #cruzsexscandal

it’s going absolutely nuts, I had to turn off my notifications. It’s 2:30am here and it is still going nuts.

This is going to be a long weekend for the Cruz camp, and an even longer one for his family I fear.

Best he can do is go hide in a cabin for the weekend, get with Billy Graham or something with his family.

The media is not going to be able to contain this by tomorrow. It’s viral.

The sex thing is one thing, but what is going to hurt, is the cover up, the hush money, and when did others know about it (Romney etc), and how long were they going to let it go on, and to what end?

Was the idea to let him get to the convention then leak the story? Thus taking away his delegates and giving them to someone else?

This goes beyond Ted, you are right.

Shapiro resigned and laid into BB management, about how they favored Trump, etc etc etc. Other employees resigned.

Several more gossiped & back stabbed management b/c they “favored” Trump.

Spiking a story that makes Cruz look really bad—isn’t exactly favoring Trump..! and Shapiro has been nuts about DJT for months now.

I’m curious how all those employees could not know about this, and continue to be such staunch Cruz supporters.
