Chuck Todd gets HEATED with Ted Cruz on Meet The Press

Chuck Todd got very frustrated with Ted Cruz over the Republican candidate refusing to answer his questions over and over. Every day Cruz gets a little more desperate and frantic.

[Night Hides Not]

I’m pretty much worn out by the children in the Trumpeteer sandbox.

Cruz - trying to re-animate a rotting corpse. He should rename his campaign, “The Zombie is Coming”

[slapshot]

I have been first Gov. Walker then Sen Cruz. Although skeptical of the St. Paul on the Road to Damascus conversion to the conservative side of Mr. Trump, I respect the following:
1. He has given the middle finger to GOPE in a very substantial manner
2. He has and is always fighting back especially against hostile media, a trait sorely lacking amongst Republipussies
3. On a few key areas he has been consistent
4. Yes he has very eyebrow raising positions.
5. However, what is the difference between how he would govern vs the parade of “conservatives” elected who abandon their principles the minute they are sworn in.
6.What has been in place for at least a generation is not working. Let the primary tryout play out and then combine to kick liberal/progressive/GOPE/MSM ass; the real enemy to the USA

Perhaps he's not being blackmailed at all.  Perhaps his dream of world domination is coming to fruition.  And his will is to become the ultimate destroyer of our free republic. 

If he can't win, fine, he'll knock all the chess pieces off the board.  He lives to amass power and wreck everything in his path to conquest.

Golden Sacks promised to drop a beautiful sack of gold at his doorstep once the election is over.

But to get that sack of gold and any other earthly wish, Ted must continue to blast Trump till he's told to stop.

So he's more than a puppet.  He's an amoral humanoid robot, the Terminator -- a man with a heart of cold steel.  

He's the physical embodiment of those million of dollars in attack ads that his SuperPacs are spending in Indiana to accomplish one mission: tarnish Donald Trump's image so badly that Hillary wins in the general election.

This guy Cruz is just the most odious jackass I have ever watched.

I hope he goes away soon.

He is not Presidential material at all.

[BlackFemaleArmyColonel]

True! My daughter and I were talking about the same thing last night! He tried to pull a fast one over on Trump!

[kanawa]

Green with envy and a ham, I do not like you, Ted-I-am!

[WillVoteForFood]

Cruz stated Trump created the Trump phenomenon, to an extent correct, but Cruz needs to accept he had a big hand in creating the Trump phenomenon as well. This was not a good interview for Cruz. Came across as a whiner, his point on how much money networks made off the Republican debates was rather nonsensical and a desperate attempt to get himself out of a straightforward question that he would be glad for Donald Trump to have to answer.

More and more, becoming clear why I was not enthusiastic when i voted for Cruz in the Texas primary. I would have to say if I had to do it again, I would probably vote for somebody else, not necessarily Trump, but he would have a good chance to get my vote. Cruz certainly would not now.

You’re welcome.

He seems just a particularly obtuse egomaniac to me, but you may be right.

“...guy he plays on reality television...Trump ...will disappoint you”

Trump accomplishes his goals:

This body of work is beyond impressive. Reality TV? That was a fun entertainment gig on the side. I don’t even watch TV ever and never saw that show and it has nothing to do with Trump’s ability to get things done.

Trump will most definitely not disappoint us and he will Make America Great Again.

Some slippery fish are more slippery than others. Ted is their king.

[Nifster]

He has already done so 13 times.

Ted miscalculated and is now desperate. He just can’t understand that whatever else is true the greater number of voters don’t want him.

Time for the career government employee to go back to his day job

But not for the least 7 weeks. A lot has happened since then. Of course he doesn’t want to give Cruz standing as an equal. Bad things can happen when people stand side by side, face to face. Dempsey lost to Tunney, who was a boxer not a brawler. (Look it up).

[RobbyS]

Trump is a member of the donor class. He, of course, has no loyalty to either party or any faction. He gave Boehnet 100,000 which the Speaker used to protect his friends against conservatives. He has given freely to all. Which is why I don’t trust the man. No telling where he would go in office.

[GBA]

Remember when Conservatives longed for someone who could articulate Conservatism to anyone anywhere, even to hostile liberals?

And, remember when we were told that Ted Cruz was The Man!, the natural born, master debater who could get 'er done?

[Nifster]

Cruz complains when trump says the delegate selection is rigged

Cruz and his people laughingly say those are the rules

Teds plan was to play for second. Trump doesn’t have to debate at this point

So sad too bad.

[RobbyS]

The system is not rigged and Trump knows it is not. Trump did better in the last set of primaries than was predicted. None of these states, except Pennsylvania can possibly go to Hillary in the fall. Cruz did worse because the liberals in these states could vote for Kasich to show how much they dislike Cruz. I dare say that no matter how the Convention votes, if it were a free convention, Cruz would win. Back in 1976, the majority of delegates preferred Reagan, but Ford was able to persuade several delegates he was going to win so they had better get on the train. Distinguish the delegate from the leadership. To a man they hate Cruz more than they do Trump, or Hillary for that matter. To his advantage, they think that Trump can be managed. That he is an old if highly energetic old man counts in his favor. That he is unpredictable counts against him.
