I don’t know if you are missing something...I had not planned to get into it, but yeah, I think she is an operative....The woman is starting a political hate list...That is a problem for me. The GOPe has evolved into something very ugly.
Many of her little tweets (she has a large twitter following from the campaign) probably don’t make major media, but they are indicative of her mindset. As I said, this is scary to me. What about the Constitution and Liberty? Guess she did not bring those concepts along when she changed positions. Is this the Cruz campaign mindset?
Perhaps the word plant is too strong (or not), but clearly she is an operative. Did she purposely leave to join CNN? Uh yeah I actually do think so based on what she just said. She worked for Cruz for 6+ years on his campaign and his Senate staff. She said her work is done after smooth presidental campaign launch (but she had been working there for 6 years....) Regardless, advocating a hate list is beyond the pale...
Ironic that some people hint of Trump not paying attention to the Constitution and of being a potential hitler, yet what she is advocating is far more hitlereqsque than anything Trump ever said or did.
What frustrates me is when media networks don’t fully disclose the candidate current and former alliances and allegiances of their staff. I doubt the average CNN watcher in the airport knows that Amanda Carpenter is a Cruz loyalist...but they should be made aware of that when she is speaking or tweeting for CNN. This problem is not limited to CNN, but again Carpenter’s outrageous comments highlight the problem.
I am missing any evidence that someone who left a job and went to work for an outfit which has been traditionally hostile to Conservatives is connected somehow to the former employer still and double dipping.
Sorry, but no dice. Sounds like tinfoil hat time to me.
Sanders, Clinton, Rubio, Carson, Kasich, and Jebbie supporters (and others) might feel motivation to build a 'hate list', (Oh, boo hoo).
Or maybe it is just her personal project.
I figure if Trump wins, maybe things will work out, and if they don't, I tried.
The 'I told you so's are going to be a b*tch either way. So it goes.
What about the Constitution and Liberty? Guess she did not bring those concepts along when she changed positions. Is this the Cruz campaign mindset?
Well, if she didn't, that might be the reason for her changing jobs. She is acting like a Liberal, not a Constitutionalist or a Conservative.
Ironic that some people hint of Trump not paying attention to the Constitution and of being a potential hitler, yet what she is advocating is far more hitlereqsque than anything Trump ever said or did.
Well, it is on her. She doesn't even work for Cruz, and you are trying to blame him and his campaign for the actions of a CNN employee. CNN didn't do him any favors in Iowa, either. So this might well be a setup to make Cruz look bad.
If people can say that he blamed Communists and Racists rioting in the streets on Trump, the word 'trumped up' takes on new meanings, and this trumped up nonsense will probably be used to hurt him. What's next, someone who took the same cab he rode in a few days before does something and Cruz is accused of a conspiracy with them?
Wow. Listen to yourselves. That's what I find freaky.
I doubt the average CNN watcher in the airport knows that Amanda Carpenter is a Cruz loyalist...but they should be made aware of that when she is speaking or tweeting for CNN.
Well, how about posting the CV for all current and former Trump employees? Or the connections with all media people, past and present, whether they may have worked at the same firm a decade or two ago, or were college roomies or frat brothers? How far do you want to go with this, because what is good for the goose is good for the gander.
Or, better yet, how about letting the actions of a person be the responsibility of the person who performed those acts? If there is an employer involved and they bear part of that responsibility, then let them, but that employer is CNN.
And, please, I have listened repeatedly to Ted Cruz's comments about the Chicago rioting, and he didn't say Trump's name, much less blame him for the actions of communist rioters in the street. It was Trump supporters who decided a shoe fit.
