Yes could be... I was just commenting that a lot of Cruz supporters ( not all ) have been very nasty about this whole issue. I think it’s very dangerous to go about questioning other people’s faith.

Talking Point Memo is a Leftist propaganda site. Until they can provide an actual on the record source this is can be considered just another in a long line of attack bot lies.

The original story quoted an unnamed high-level source saying that Bloomberg handed down an "edict" to ensure journalists did not attack Trump in their stories.

Really then why do you engage in such anti intellectualism? Intellectuals verify, they do not just hear what they want to hear. .

He’s not attacking the DJT because he doesn’t want to harm his future relationship with a fellow NYC Democrat.

Anyone employed in any way by any news outfit that attempts to tell any voter who he can or can’t, should or shouldn’t vote for should be dragged out into the street and stomped into a bloody mud-hole.

Report the facts straight-up then shut the frack up. That’s their job.

I wholeheartedly agree. That goes also for spun ‘news’ coverage, which is commonplace.

“What is: Prop up the weakest opponent for Hillary?

What do I win?”

That is a possibility. However Trump will kill Hillary in the general election.
