Nice graphic. Here’s a recap list, to go with...
actions count stronger than web site bullet points...and Cruz has generated enough questions
from forgetting he was born in Canada,
forgetting the CitiBank and Goldman Sacks loans
forgetting his involvement in a private investment with a college buddy
sending out a fake “Voter Assessment”
claiming Carson quit the campaign
and push polling in IA, SC and who knows where else.
All of the polls leading up to Iowa had Trump as the walk away winner.
And then reality hit...
Cruz 2016.
If you only go by MSM reports you will know little truth. I am fairly certain you don’t watch Trump rallies so what you have seen is not in context. The media does the same selective editing on Cruz.
Nailed it! Populism sucks. It's an offshoot of liberalism and has more in common with Bernie Sanders' views than Ted Cruz'.
Then why didn’t the left take out McCain? He was sued for eligibility too, and it was a frivolous lawsuit that went nowhere, as it would with Cruz. Why are you so scared and cowed by liberals? Cruz will defend himself expertly in court and win.
Well this should be fun
Rubio made a similar voter report card, Rubio’s campaign also passed on the CNN report about Carson and all campaigns do robocalls.
Stopped reading right there.
One possible point in favor of a Trump administration is that the annual State of the Union address and his inaugural address would be absolutely hilarious.
I’ve seen Rubio’s card...it looks like a cartoon, not an official govt form....and, it didn’t list NEIGHBOR’s names.
I haven’t heard the voicemails or seen the tweets or letters sent out by the Rubio campaign about Carson GETTING OUT OF RACE. Do you have a link?
Romney & McCain are are good examples. (And Trump would be an even bigger example)
Many Republican voters who supported their primary opponents couldn't bring themselves to vote for either Romney or John M.
I voted for McCain due to Palin; but I couldn't bring myself to vote for Romney.
IoW, Romney had trouble garnering the Republican "bleedover" vote for the general election...
This would be true of the quite unlikeable Trump were he to win the primaries.
Many would simply not vote, or vote third party, if Trump wins.
That's where the "unlikeability" factor kicks in big time. People who absolutely despise a given candidate aren't going to vote for "the best of two bad candidates" when both are despicable.
Looks like Teddy’s bus has stalled. :-)
Wow, just wow.
This young man is a personal friend of mine, by the way!!!
Do you know Markeece Young? If not I’d not slander.
Very good post.
The economy is currently in recession. The stock market is collapsing. 100 million people out of work. Trump is the only one screaming about it.
Not even Ted Cruz has a clue about this. His solution is to get down on your knees and pray. The candidates are so out of touch. Once they get in office they will do nothing.
This year is the year everything falls apart and yet the candidates are like children oblivious to reality.
Trump is the only guy forcing reality.
Judge by the content of a person’s character..a wise person once said!
M.Y. (the author of this article), both a very intelligent, and very conservative, and Christian young college student from the great state of North Carolina who also happens to be black.
And then Cruz Cheated by saying Carson will drop out. So don’t waste your vote and vote for Cruz.
Furthermore, Microsoft was counting the votes that night. They also happen to be Rubio’s second largest campaign donor. This is because Rubio is in favor of replacing American workers at home from foreigners abroad via the H1 B program.
Anyhow, Rubio did not show up to Iowa until 3 weeks before the election. At the most he had 100 people show up to 1 of his rallies.... On the Caucus day Rubio was less than 2 of all Social Media talk in Iowa vs. Trump, Cruz, Hillary and Sanders. Out of all the polls ran before the Iowa Caucus by various media, etc... The best numbers Rubio could get in Iowa was 12%. That’s his highest numbers. Think about this too. People can barely find even 1 real Rubio supporter.
So how did Rubio get 24% in Iowa when every poll had him at 12% at best??? How did all the media along with other polling places miss all these Rubio supporters? Where are they hiding??? How come they did not show up to his rallies, wearing Rubio for Pres shirts, etc.????
So even though every other candidates final numbers pretty much, more or less, matched what all the polls combined said.... Rubio was the only exception who had DOUBLE his numbers. Some how all these news outlets and polling places missed it. Oh yeah I’m to believe that like Hillary winning 6 coin tosses in a row. If she lost one then Sanders would have won Iowa. Try flipping a coin six times in a row and get it right 6 times in a row. Not even an NFL team can do that.
Oh but you REALLY BELIEVE... Microsoft, who was counting the votes in Iowa and IS Rubio’s second largest financial supporter, was being honest when it came to counting the votes?
For the record, Roger Stone, Trump’s stealth Top Adviser warned Donald Trump not to run in Iowa and to start in New Hampshire 2 years ago. There is an article in Politico about it that’s 2 years old.
This is because in Iowa Independents can’t cross over and vote. Democrats can’t cross over and vote. Roger Stone was advising Trump back then the GOPe would block Trump. Roger Stone told Trump he would be lucky if he came in 5th or 4th place. Plus, Iowa is known as the race where the bottom tier candidates drop out.
Nevertheless, Trump said I still want to do it. It’s Trump’s competitive nature. Trump was originally, 2 years ago, thinking he could get 5th or 4th place. This is also why Trump said in Iowa, the night he lost, I was told not to run in Iowa..... That was Roger Stone who advised him that. Where did Trump end up? Second place and that’s after Cruz cheated.
I bet you did not know too the in end Cruz got 8 delegates, Trump got 7 and Rubio got 3. So it’s only 1 delegate difference.
New Hampshire allows Democrats to vote for Republicans and Independents too. Most States are like that and not snobbish like Iowa.
So you can discount all those polls you want, ignore the thousands at the rallies all you want, oh and Microsoft was only counting the votes in the state of Iowa only. It was an experiment. Anyhow, Trump is dominating in New Hampshire.
Cruz is now considered a cheater to the public. People do not like Cheaters. He’s going to lose in New Hampshire and South Carolina. As far as I see it its over for Cruz.
If Cruz could have kept his mouth shut, then he could have been the VP of Trump. Then work out the birth thing, and most likely easily ascend to POTUS in 8 year. It would be 16 years of conservative rule after Obama. However, he screwed that up when he was advised to attack Trump.
Cruz and Trump have a majority of the vote. It’s a complete rejection of the Establishment. It’s too bad they cannot work things out.
I was at the Raleigh one and no one left, not even the few thousand who couldn’t get into the 7K venue. Pure BS!
Thanks!
