Glenn Beck's bad bet on Ted Cruz
Politico ^ | September 15, 2016 | Kenneth P. Vogel and Hadas Gold

Glenn Beck’s dreams of building a dominant conservative media empire are faltering amid a tangle of lawsuits, financial challenges, plunging on-line readership, firings and political feuds. Beck, who in his days as Fox News host was among the leading voices of the anti-establishment right, invested heavily to parlay that influence into a wide-ranging media enterprise including not just a syndicated radio show, but also his own television network, news website, movie studio, book publishing imprint and clothing line.

When Glenn was exposing Soros and the left he provided valuable service.
When he went all in for the Cubanadian, he went off the rails.

Cubanadians are not eligible to be President.

yes, Beck made a bad bet on Cruz
but what’s worse is how Beck has acted SINCE the nomination, always attacking the nominee (and thus promoting Hillary’s election to the WH)

sorry, Mr Beck, but there is a time and a season for everything under Heaven.

the time to switch ponies from Cruz to Trump was when the R party decided to nominate Trump

I appreciate Beck’s work in the past. That said, he ASSURRED us he had vetted Cruz. How did he miss the Fibber McGee closet full of women Cruz was hiding?

clothing line

There's something in that clothing line that Beck started that says 'doom' to me.

Media empire, broadcast, publishing, etc. etc. and then "clothing line".

Was Beck such a dresser that people were following his lead??? This was some kind of weird affectation.

Hey - I liked Cruz too

But when he lost, it was time to put away his ego and support the team.

I’m also not ashamed to say - my respect for Cruz has dropped A LOT since he agreed to support the eventual nominees, but didn’t do so. He won’t get my support in the future.

Beck claims he threw out thirty five million bucks to finance the idiotic cruz effort.

At this very moment Glenn & pals have Bill O’Reilly on plugging his latest book. It’s a love feast. Embarrassing.

I couldn’t be happier for him.

I cannot believe people stayed with him for this long. I sure hope we’ve heard the last of this nutcase.

Glenn Beck is so out of touch with reality that he’d lose a bet whether or not the sun will rise in the east.

I usually stop short of wishing bad luck and trouble onto others, because karma is a bitch. But in Beck’s case, his antics did so much harm I think he deserves every bit of failure and comeuppance headed his way.

Actions have consequences.
