Donald Trump Jr: Ted Cruz Has To Bribe Delegates To Win
CNN ^ | APRIL 24

Posted on 04/24/2016 8:38:39 AM PDT by Helicondelta

Donald Trump Jr. said that the only way Texas Sen. Ted Cruz can convince delegates to support him over his father is with bribery.

"Ted Cruz has no chance of winning this without bribing the delegates. That's his game at this point," the son of the real estate mogul told CNN's Jake Tapper in a CNN "State of the Union" interview that aired Sunday.

Trump Jr. said if his father wanted to bribe delegates he could -- and do it very well.

"He could send his private plane and send them down to Doral, they could play golf for a week and then we win that delegate. That's not the way this country should be run," Trump Jr. said.

Wow, talk about a career imploding before our eyes. Sorry Ted, you need to break away from your establishment handlers or your future is toast!

The true reason why Cruz did not answer Hannity the other day where he instead launched into attacking Trump without answering Hannity’s question.

Politicians not elections. What the GOP, Ted, and super pacs are doing now is taking the voter out of elections and it's a scary thing.

I’m so glad Ted Cruz will never be a national candidate again. He is just unlikable and creepy. He would have never made it this far or through the early states if it wasn’t for the constant praise from Rush Limbaugh, conservative writers and the evangelical leaders.

In before the:

“But... but... but... Those are the RULES!!! We’ve ALWAYS done it that way! Why does Donald Trump think he’s exempt from the RULES???”

Trump respects voters wishes I have yet to hear him prying at delegates that Cruz fairly won. Cruz supporters are all into manipulation if Cruz does it after all that is the "rule". TPA, Coker, NAU, lies, or having the Bush cabal on his team mean nothing to them. But they want to claim petty issues with Trump.

If it were not for Trump many of us would still believe the fairytale that there are 2 parties and that many who claim to be conservative are only there for their own benefit.

This is really a horrible accusation. Cruz likely has more allies who've been involved in the party for longer, and that gives him an advantage. Nothing wrong with Trump attacking that as evidence that Cruz is not an outsider, or claiming it is unfair.

But accising Cruz of actial bribery is quite difference. If Trump has actual evidence of that, then he should do us all a favor and reveal it. But if he's just making up a smear because it plays well with some voters, that's reprehensible.

Ted Cruz will not win anything this way.

If the voters haven't chosen him in the primaries to receive the nomination,
but is appointed by delegates at the convention,
he will lose in the election that matters most.

And Americans will never forgive him for it.

“But accising Cruz of actial bribery is quite difference”

Apparently someone has shielded you from seeing the video of Cruz handing a signed flyer and folded $100 bill to a delegate. Of course later he made up a lie to say he wasn’t doing it but I watched the video and I’m seeing a bribe happening. Before you get back to me watch the vid for yourself.

I agree. They should produce the evidence.

Perhaps they are projecting their own motives.

From the article.

And who screwed up the system that that is the only way anything can get done. It is ars holes like the believers like you that will never understand that America is corrupt because millions of Americans have no morals. Communists Democrats and republicans made this a way to survive. Wake up. You think Cruz is Lilly white?

Trump for President.

What's not computing with me is the fact that Trumpeteers continue to savage Ted, though Trump should be turning his sights on Hillary.

From what I'm seeing here, party unity is a pipe dream.

And Cruz was asked by Hannity how he would get these delegates, but as we all saw, he would not answer the question. Instead, he got all defensive and went dumb.

This is a case of Trumpsters blathering about stuff they know nothing about. But it is the ACCUSATION that is important, not the truth.

So what Cruz, who was right there, said was a kid’s drawing and a $5 bill, you could see from the video was a flyer and a folded $100 bill? You have really good eyes. When I watched the video, it was too fast for me to tell that it was anything but paper being passed. Maybe Cruz could say the sun rises in the east and some would say it was a lie.
