Teen Ted Cruz joked of goals: ‘World domination, you know, rule everything’

Politico ^

[lurk]

No doubt every one of us would like to be held accountable today for things we said and did in high school. Geniuses we were in those days.

So, Cruz can joke, but Trump can’t. Got it!! Don’t you know that one of the 10 Commandments is that “ye shall have no other gods before me?” You Cruzbots make a god ot of Cruz and it’s sickening. His wanting to ruel goes right along with his dad’s theology. Don’t forget being rich and powerful - those really are his goals - why else would he run for the presidency? He has no qualifications for the position.

Hey I didn't call it a nothing burger, Springwater did. I merely concurred without qualification.

And I haven't posted a hit piece on anyone - I spend most of my time here defending against your side's ridiculous assertions.

BTW friendly advise to everyone, if your gonna sling crap you ought not be so thin skinned.

Why are you not on this thread, your friends miss you.

Ted Cruz Waterloo Rally with Glenn Beck **LIVE THREAD** Jan 23 8PM EST

[FlingWingFlyer]

Don’t tell me. He was drinking beer with an 18 year old Marco Rubio in a public park in Texas when he said it. This is all the commies have?

[SampleMan]

I love Cruz, but the crap opinions of some Freepers sure makes them unlikable.

Being an ass hat appears to be a requirement of Trump supporters.

[heights]

I’m a Trump guy, but this is just dumb.

[taterjay]

Just like Romney cutting a kid’s hair. However, still no revelations on Obama in year 8 by the media.

“This is a nothing burger”

But a video of Trump saying the same would be a post-a-thon from the usuals screaming...

“SEE!!! HE IS THA’ DICTATORZ!!!!”.

[miss marmelstein]

The whole point of this, if you had an ironic bone in your body, is that two can play at this stupid game. I’ve read more dumb “hit” pieces on Trump that I care to remember.

[SamuraiScot]

I think it's a definite positive. The kid in that video's got the balls to be President. Ted should borrow some of that loose, wiseacre, kick-butt manner in his political appearances and use it on Trump or whoever gets in his way. He comes off as personally tough, and at the same time not taking himself too seriously.

That's what I like about Trump's persona as well. It's so good to see in today's concern-troll, PC environment. It just breaks the glass and makes you want to cheer.

That is solid advice. And may I add "Practice what you preach".

[VanDeKoik]

“So, Cruz can joke, but Trump can’t. Got it!!”

Pretty much.

[nclaurel]

At 18 most young guys are jerks. So this isn’t much of anything. Since we were told he lectured on the Constitution as a young teen, I wonder at what age he became a conservative Christian.

[dsrtsage]

At least they can find people who knew him in high school and college

[skeeter]

Solid advise as well.

[Fiji Hill]

Really? after the things that you and your fellow cruz supporters have been posting, your going to label anything a nothing burger? Have you no shame at all?

So something Cruz said as a teenager 27 years ago is profoundly significant today?

[UCANSEE2]

I laughed at this.

Everyone should. No matter which candidate they are supporting.
