BOMBSHELL: Ted Cruz Makes Plan To DROP OUT OF THE RACE!
The Politidcal Insider ^ | 2/29/16 | Kosar

Posted on 02/29/2016 9:56:28 AM PST by Blood of Tyrants

A long-time political insider just made a bombshell announcement about conservative Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX), who is running for President.

This Republican operative, who has worked on 9 different presidential cycles, couldn’t keep it quiet any longer after being in talks with key leaders of Cruz’s and Senator Marco Rubio’s (R-FL) campaigns.

The insider is Roger Stone. He once worked for Donald Trump, and passed along his report to a popular radio host that Cruz used a high-priced attorney to confidentially request that Rubio’s team promise Cruz a Supreme Court appointment in exchange for Cruz exciting the race. This is in addition to recent reports that the candidates’ wives have been in contact, discussing why someone dropping out is essential.

Indeed. Not cool. I think Stone left the Trump campaign in order to be able to run his dirty tricks con.

“It’s a trick!”

That’s what I thought. Maybe it’s payback for Cruz’ dirty tricks.

JUST IN FROM THE CRUZ CAMP

It’s dirty tricks by the Trump campaign. It’s from Roger Stone, who’s Trump’s brain. This website is a tabloid. They’re trying to hurt Cruz before March 1.

I think you are half right, Trump having to negotiate with the Dems to get things done is going to result with things we do not like but I do think Trump will get some of what he (we) wants. Of one thing, I am certain, Trump does know how to negotiate. I think down-ticket issue is something Trump needs to address, to get a congress who will work with him instead of against him.

Well of course he’s gong to bail. Probably right after Super Tuesday.

Not so.

What is not so? That Sessions endorsed Trump or that Cruz doesn't consider it a death knell? It is similar to the Haley endorsement of Rubio, which meant the end of Jeb's campaign.

Also, not so. I watched that interview. There was NO such endorsement. Common, Trumpeters, win honest if you can!

Watch from the 4 minute mark on. This is the Cruz version of Bernie's email moment. Cruz sided with Rubio in terms of who is qualified to be President. Cruz said that Trump is not, but "my friend" Marco is. If it gets down to a two man race between Rubio and Trump, then Cruz leaves no doubt as to who he supports.

Cruz has been campaigning against the Washington Cartel and positions himself as an outsider. The fact is that Cruz is an insider who has spent most of his adult life in government and has donors like Goldman Sachs, the Club for Growth, and a billionaire hedge fund guy. Cruz sought a 500% increase in H-1B visas.

Tomorrow will effectively end the Cruz campaign even with a win in TX. His only hope is a brokered convention. The only reason to stay in is to hurt Trump and help Marco.

“said a Carson operative”! Love that, I was just going to suggest Carson have his crew call everyone prior to Super Tuesday tomorrow with the rumor.

The only way this would make sense is if Cruz thought he would lose Texas tomorrow. If he did, dropping out today might be an effort to “save face”.

Now we just need to pray that Donald’s security and secret service detail keep him safe because this is the nastiest election season I have witnessed in my adult lifetime and things look to get worse, much worse.

Yep. Prayers up for Trump's safety!

The only part of “bombshell” is the B and S.

It appears the 2016 elections will come down to Trump vs. Clinton. That’s a helluva choice. Feel the apathy!

Prediction: Trump vs Hillary will garner more votes, by far, than any Presidential election in American history. The Reps are setting huge turnout records for each of the four primaries held so far. More than likely, that will be case for all of the Super Tuesday primaries.

Apathy? Maybe among the GOPe and some fringe Cruz supporters who will not be able to handle a Cruz loss.

Um, ok. You mean the ultimate Trump loyalist who used to work for Trump in this current campaign, indicates Cruz will drop out. Well, isn't that interesting.

If you say so as you must have been there like the idiot Stone was privy to Rubio and Cruz wives conversation. Sure I am so sure.

The word is out as to what happened.

Cruz has been going around with his new barn burning campaign calling Trump a KKK member and a racist. He has adopted the Hillary strategy. Meanwhile, some Cruz supporters have been cheering on Rubio for saying Trump went pee pee in his pants and who is also calling Trump a racist, and both warning the Republican base is on the verge of becoming members of the Klan and how dangerous they are to America.

However, what happened next was, Rubio figured, “hey, Cruz is on the America is racist thing, warning that the Republican base is about to elect a Klan member, but what if I call Cruz a homophobe?” …

So he calls up Cruz on the phone and says, “guess what, I am going to call you a homophobe at the next rally . . . actually Nikki is since I lost my voice yelling Trump is a racist and went pee pee in his pants and stuff as some of your insiders cheered me on . . . but, now I am going to go full blown burn the barn down and call you a gay basher and homophobe for calling me a pretty face and this is my warning . . .”

So then Cruz realized Rubio had a checkmate and decided to drop out after Super Tuesday. He cannot also led the campaign against white privilege and white racism in AmeriKKKa and also be an exposed homophobe, it doesn’t add up and he is out.

“You’re exactly right, Jim. Cruz is not dropping out. This is just another lie to take the votes away from Cruz.”

This is Carson’s way of getting even with Cruz. Bwahahahahahahaha

Its insane that the GOPe can’t seem to grasp what their electorate is telling them

They do grasp it.

Trump correctly identified the fulcrum from the beginning. This election has come down to a single issue:
The Borders.

The uniparty will sacrifice everything else to keep them open.

Trump stepped up to be the uncompromising candidate to block and reverse that agenda.

It will be interesting to see what Cruz does after he's out. Support little Marco Rubio (or establishment late entry) and he is toast. No official endorsement and he is still toast with establishment AND Trump supporters. He endorses Trump and he's toast with establishment and Trump supporters will still view him as a lying fraud, for a while anyway. He could always redeem himself by pulling his head out, but that would take a while. Cruz really screwed up,IMO.
