Yesterday, Trump ripped into Cruz for supposedly lying about Ben Carson's decision to leave Iowa early, as well as the Cruz campaign mailer telling Iowans whether they had voted in previous elections. He then added, "No, it's honestly really, really dishonest. And I think I know why. You know why? Because he was born in Canada...He gets the nomination, they're going to sue his ass off."

Let's go through these bizarre, inane assertions one-by-one...

In other news:
Meet Chad C. Sweet, Ted Cruz’s campaign chairman, former DoD/CIA/Goldman Sachs/Homeland Security.
Sweet co-founded the Chertoff Group with former Bush and Obama administration Secretary of Homeland Security Michael Chertoff.
As a leader of the Chertoff Group, Sweet “advocated for expanding NSA metadata collection.”

Meet Ted’s ex-CIA PR guy, Dan P. Gabriel. Gabriel is involved in SIGINT aka interception - which is turned into propaganda. His twitter handle is @danpgabriel and he was one of the people pushing the angle that it was confirmed to the Cruz campaign that Carson was dropping out. After called out on the lie, the agent deleted the tweet and denies everything in typical spook fashion:
Ted Cruz PR CONFIRMED government agent! Actively working for Soros & US Army! Rabbit hole time...
So according to trump. Cruz was really dishonest about Carson because he was born in Canada? What a fruit loop.
What did Ted Cruz apologize for then?
Except in the Trump version of Fruit Loops, each fruit loop comes with a giant orange hairpiece!
Thanks for that info. Disturbing to see the close ties to Chertoff. Now the edifice of the Cruz campaign is becoming exposed further.
But, but, but the Illinois Board of Elections says Cruz is NBC! We know how honest they are.
Trump’s pushing the narrative because he’s a narcissist who can’t believe that anyone would not vote for him. After all, he’s a billionaire, he was leading the polls, and he gets what he wants.
I am getting sick of people joking about Trump's "hairpiece". It's not a hairpiece.
It's a comb-over.
Yes, there is more coming out all the time. It really is beginning to look as if the Cruz campaign has been a NWO PSYOP from the start.
LOL!!!
Yep, sounds like Teddy cheated alright. Between the voter violation mailings and the bogus Carson rumor. Ted was up in the Iowa polls most of January plus his “new york values” line, Cruz should have won by 20 points. Instead, he looks like a nasty cheater and barely squeaked out a win. For all that effort he gets 1 more delegate than Trump. But that is ok. Let Cruz have his one win for the primaries. It is all downhill from here on out. Good riddance!
make sure you put that on every thread trump is showing his true (awful) colors on. Remember when he goes third party - you supported him.
Because his staff got a little overzealous. That’s the sum total of what happened. CNN made it sound like Carson was dropping out. Carson himself was the source of the story. And some Cruz staffers, who were no doubt chomping at the bit, ran with the story to try and boost their candidate. Could have happened in any campaign. Cruz took responsibility and apologized to Carson publicly...the rest is just the hairpiece trying to make a trumpian mountain out of a molehill.
“What did Ted Cruz apologize for then?”
Trusting CNN’s report that Carson was dropping out.
He did say his team should have verified, that’s what he apologized for.
Not anymore!

1. Wikipedia says: “The Iowa Caucus[1] is an electoral event in which residents of the U.S. state of Iowa meet in precinct caucuses in all of Iowa’s 1,681 precincts and elect delegates to the corresponding county conventions.”
2. Ted Cruz’s ground game was said to be massive and the explanation for his victory. He had workers at all precincts.
3. Ted Cruz apologized for his workers spreading misinformation about Ben Carson dropping out of the race. Carson says this misinformation affected vote totals.
4. http://cnsnews.com/news/article/cnsnewscom-staff/iowa-cruz-278-trump-244-rubio-229-carson-93-paul-45
Cruz had 51,416—or 27.7 percent—of the votes.
Trump was second with 45,245 or 24.3 percent of the votes.
Rubio was third with 42,863 or 23.1 percent of the votes.
Dr. Ben Carson was fourth with 17,321 or 9.3 percent of the votes.
5. If each precinct has a caucus and there are 1681 precincts, as stated by point #1, then one vote lost per precinct to the misinformation campaign totaled 1681 votes possibly added to Cruz’s total.
6. Since Cruz’s lead was only 6200 votes, that would mean only about 4 vote changes per precinct.
7. This calls into question the size of Cruz’s victory, the size of Carson’s loss, and the number of delegates apportioned.
8. Question: Should that be acknowledge by the Republican Party in a public news release?
