Ted Cruz Takes a Brutal Beating on Facebook
Various Facebook Comments via TruthFeed ^ | April 25, 2016 | By Amy Moreno

Posted on 04/25/2016 10:19:27 PM PDT by BlackFemaleArmyColonel

Ted Cruz has teamed up with GOP establishment hack John Kasich, to usurp the will of We The People. The two of them are in cahoots trying to cajole our (rigged) system in Ted’s favor to force a contested convention. Ted can’t mathematically win with the voters, so he’s bribing delegates to try and win on a second ballot at a brokered convention.

From the backlash he’s receiving on Facebook, it appears that many of Ted’s supporters are not pleased with his latest scam.

“I supported you because I believed you were an outsider, boy was I wrong!” scorched one Facebook user. “John Kasich is a progressive loser. Why are you working with him???” bellowed another.

In light of Ted’s latest anti-American stunt, many Facebook users have vowed to back Trump instead. “Ted, you just lost my vote. I guess I’ll support Trump. At least he’s not playing games” commented a one-time Cruz supporter.

It appears that reckless Ted Cruz will go to unbelievable lengths to “win” the nomination, even if that means attacking the American people.

The anecdote of my wife takinc Cruz off her facebook feed proves one thing.

She could no longer stand that Cruz had become a distorted shadow of what he once pretended to be. She took him off, she no longer liked what he was standing for.

I realize that's hard for a Cruzer to understand, but it happened to a lot of us, and for good reason. the man became what he claimed to run against, and it was sickening to watch. From what I can see, if he continues this kamikaze run for his GOPe masters, he may never be elected to dog catcher let alone senator.

Nice dodge.

When I heard that speech of Ted blaming Trump for the violence of the thugs who turned out to stop his rally in Chicago, I knew he had betrayed every principle he claimed to be for.

That you can't see that is troubling.

The man is a fraud, and has simply lost his way in chasing some bizarro dream to be president. It's clear, it's obvious to all but the Cruzer fools.

I think the GOPe has some really bad stuff on Cruz and they are forcing him to keep up this ankle biting.

I cannot believe that he would be so stupid on his own. He has an over-inflated ego but even with that how can be act so stupidly.

Was he on a lot of drugs in college and they are now catching up with him and his brain processes? Is he maybe having early dementia?

All summer long, and through most of the fall, I thought that Trump and Cruz had some kind of non-aggression agreement going on. (And I'm not the only one! That was a common theory on FR.)

But now Cruz teaming up with, of all people, Kasich, the consummate GOP-e guy? That's it for me. As far as I'm concerned with Cruz....

>>>Next week you’ll push that Trump has allied himself with the decpeticons

Don’t even know those guys.

However , Trump’s business with shady politicians and mobsters, hiring of a guy with deep connections to Putin’s puppet in the Ukraine and Russian “businessmen” ..(with a bit of inconvenient political assassination involved..)

Well documented stuff. Must distract his followers from the obvious.

Such as that Trump sells his name, his biggest asset for sale - but the huge free media of this election is a big financial risk for him. Yeah.

Then there’s the huge way “Trump™Wall” that Trump will build. His followers trust he can do this because he’s a builder of wall kind of things!

Son of Gun! There’s a big construction project for Trump Organization!

If only his followers really read “Art of the Deal.”

Yep, if you have to believe whatever Trump tweets, then, that’s what you have to think about Cruz.

Trump had no “shadow to become.” He was boorish and juvenile and without principles from the beginning.

So no disappointment is needed to keep following where he leads -which is to slime everyone else in the race and the party.

Yea! Winning!

Not what Ted said, but if you’re a Trump follower™ thats’s what the story had to be.

Nothing personal, but you’re easily led. It’s become a twitter world and if you follow Trump, you have to slime everyone else - including the party.

If you read the Art of the Deal” you know it’s really the art of intimidation and cheating your suppliers. Saying anything, attacking, extreme hyperbole...

That’s worked for Trump. It’s working for him now.

Really a shame, so many have not thought for themselves and joined the media mob, led by the Donald.

The "slime" began with Ted when he spoke about his strategy to take out Trump by attacking Trump's demeanor and character. He first said it to his donors, then continued to the public. Sorry about that, but it's true. If he didn't want character assassination, he should not have been the first to do it.

That was the first shot fired, because before that they had not attacked each other.

I have never followed Trump's tweets, don't have a twitter account. I supported Cruz until January, and changed because Trump was the better, stronger candidate. It wasn't because I disliked Cruz, I just found that Trump was stronger, better on the issues I cared about, and I felt he could withstand the negativity that the Clintons would bring.

The more Cruz has continued, the less I like him, and the less I trust him.

He has only Ted Cruz to blame for that.

Not what Ted said

I listened to it several times, it's exactly what he did.

He had a golden opportunity to unite against the totalitarian left, and instead he said it came from the top of the Trump campaign. It was a classic blunder, something given him from the Romney/Bush/GOPE handlers.

You lie as much as that candidate you support. Is it caught virally?

Are you ok? Like, it seems you’re trying to paint Trump as some sort of international criminal mastermind, and he’s really just a guy whose led a good life, built a great business and had wonderful children. None of the family drinks, smokes or does drugs.

I don’t know anyone I’d rather have in the white house that Trump and his family.

"And that long-respected website “TruthFeed.com” has always had the pulse of FaceBook.

Yeah, nobody’s being manipulated here.."

Or you could just read Cruz's FB page. A rough count will show you comments are 2-1 or more against him.

But yeah when truth is against your argument attack the source of the info, because an outright denial of reality makes everyone giggle at you.

Cruz just simplified the endgame for Trump. Trump can finally drop that ridiculous and insulting "Lying Ted" meme. All Trump needs to say now is, Cruz-Kasich.

Kasich? Talk about the kiss of death....

You’re really way far out there man...I doubt Trump need any more money, and he could’ve done all those mob things you are saying without going through the hassle of running for president

He just wants to make America great again.

I’m sorry: You fault Cruz for “his strategy to take out Trump by attacking Trump’s demeanor and character. “

Trump’s strategy - let’s be kind and call it, Mother of All Sliming, of his opponents, does not bother you. His attacks of the GOP... not a bother. His claim of voterless elections where voters don’t vote for him, not a problem. His - boorish, juvenile, immature, undignified rambling, ‘would be a riot,’ incoherent, position-switching, press conferences... not a problem.

But..
>>Ted when he spoke about his strategy to take out Trump by attacking Trump’s demeanor and character -— first said it to his donors.

OMG. That would be really unfair. Trump would never attack an opponents demeanor and character. He’d go for how tall they are; their eating manners.. important stuff like that.

>>>I have never followed Trump’s tweets

Ah, but you have. That’s how you’re being manipulated. Trump tweets, his followers *must* echo his post, you react to the second wave which is where you get the info that Cruz started it and Trump is, um, a victim.

Trump has a major advantage in free media attention, he has a loyal following who will repeat whatever he tells them no matter how specious. He bullies and intimidates anyone against him; followers tagging right along.

It’s quite an exercise in watching a mob.

Trump hasn’t *needed* any more money for some time. What he needs is what narcissistic egomaniacs need.

>>>and he could’ve done all those mob things you are saying without going through the hassle of running for president

Imagine what he could do with those things as president.

The mere crumbs would make him the richest man in America. He could sell his name for a hundred thousand times more than he does now...

>>>”He just wants to make America great again.

Yeah, that’s what’s motivated Donald Trump throughout his life. Money, power, women, fame... that’s never been important to him.

You do see that’s really a naive sell you’re buying from the Donald now,.. I hope.

...The day after his ridiculous statement blaming Trump for the Chicago thugs, she took him off her page.

That was exactly the day I flipped.

I was on Cruz’s email list and click on the tab to be eliminated from the list... as I did so “JEB2016 RENTAL LIST” popped up.

Cruz is the biggest phoney ever. Everything about the guy is total BS. He isnt a conservative, he’s a con artist. He has proven to be a sleazy snake of the lowest order.
By any measure Hillary is a better man than Cruz!
