You're a HYPOCRITE!

It would still be wrong and IF Trump had done this, which I doubt he would have, I would be creaming about how damned BAD it was!

This was worse than just unethical!

Um...Steve King (who endorsed Cruz) was doing it also: Steve King Twitter

Steve King Retweeted Chris Moody

Carson looks like he is out. Iowans need to know before they vote. Most will go to Cruz, I hope.

If that’s a Tweet, where’s the check mark showing it’s a verified account?

What’s unethical? Carson has plunged like a rock in the last few months.

Stating that he’ll suspend his campaign is somehow dirty?

The first casualty in war & politics is the truth. Don’t tell anyone, but Santorum and Bush are also suspending their campaigns.

Well it is not like they compared Carson to a child molester.

[[“take a break” and “stop campaigning” were the phrases used by CNN and Cruz respectively. Those seem pretty synonymous to me. If you’re not on the trail, then you’re not campaigning, whether you’re still in the race or not. What else is Carson taking a break from? His knitting? CNN is the misleading one, if anyone. Cruz’s team simply jumped on a Breaking News crawler, nothing more, despite your attempts to make it look like more.]]

Don’t even bother- the perpetually ‘offended’ will never give him an ounce of credit- if they can’t find something legitimate to be offended about, they will make something like this up by assigning nefarious intent to what happened- and then turn around and pretend like their crap don ‘t stink- and oh the ‘moral outrage’ too- kinda comical really

Cruz and Trump got the SAME amount of delegates, so just HOW did Trump "lose"?

You don't appear to care about this. WHY IS THAT?
