After enthusiastically endorsing and campaigning for Ted Cruz in the 2016 Republican presidential primary, radio talk show host Glenn Beck admitted he made an error and said he should have supported Marco Rubio instead.

Beck had just finished a contentious interview with Cruz, in which he quizzed the Texas Senator about supporting Donald Trump after making a public show of not endorsing him. “For the very first time I heard Ted Cruz calculate,” he said after the commercial break.

“And when that happened, the whole thing fell apart for me,” he continued. “And it’s my fault. It’s my fault for believing that men can actually be George Washington.”

Just shut up, Glenn. Take your money and go enjoy your life somewhere far away. You’re over.

Say what you want about Beck, and I’d probably agree with it.

What I find absolutely baffling, is that to date Ted Cruz still hasn’t woken up to the real Glenn Beck, and his overall benefit to Ted in the relationship. Alas there is no benefit, a real negative truth be told.

Yes, Glenn seems to be a pathetic figure who is unstable.

No, Ted can’t even get this right.

I won’t say too much, as I realize Beck has had mental issues for many years. I don’t know if he has a diagnosis, but after all this time of watching him, he seems to be getting worse, and I’m not sure he will find his way back to normalcy.

I heard his interview with Cruz. He hasn’t turned on him; they are friends who disagreed respectfully.

BTW, Glenn, Rubio has endorsed Trump.

This is friggin' bizarre, man. The phone number that Cruz called in on for the Beck interview got out just when the the gig started, and some guy immediately recognized it as the number of some pay phone booth of the parking lot under the same building shared by the Fair Play for Cuba Committee in Irving, Texas.

So some guy with a transistor radio in hand listening to the show rushed into the underground parking lot with his old brownie camera he happen to have in the trunk of his car at took this picture, but it is sort of blurry.

My God! It looks like Beck! As if he was doing the interview from this friggin' phone booth! Why would Beck take the call from some phone booth? My God, I didn't even think phone booths even existed anymore!

Totally bizarro! Is this actually Glen Beck?!? Man oh man. What the?

[TBP]

Cruz was not calculating. he was making a judgment based on principle.

Beck has said he doesn’t like the stand he is taking. Cruz sounded like he’s equally uncomfortable, and he admitted he’s wrestled with it. Based on shared principles, they came to different conclusions. That happens sometimes.

Glenn Beck is nothing but an entertainer. He doesn’t believe in what he’s saying. First of all, his delivery is ripped off of actors who do reenactments of American figures from the American Revolution.

[Repealthe17thAmendment]

Doesn’t Beck always make a big deal about how he makes these decisions based on prayer? Is he saying that God made a mistake, or did Beck just hear him wrong?

[ThePatriotsFlag]

Beck is following the hot trail of the Dixie Chicks and doesn’t know why he is fading away ... bye.

[Southnsoul]

It can be quite a blow for some people if they don’t soon realize that... “My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways,” says the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways,
And My thoughts than your thoughts.” (Isaiah 55:8-9)

[“And when that happened, the whole thing fell apart for me,” he continued. “And it’s my fault. It’s my fault for believing that men can actually be George Washington.”]

Yeah, well Glenn, you also think Joseph Smith was a “prophet”.

See, when your guy votes to give Iran $150 billion dollars, or should I say, makes it easier by the Corker Bill.......DUH.

Interesting that a man who claims it is all about the Constitution wants ineligibles like Cruz and Rubio to follow the ineligible Kenyanesian Uusurper.

radio talk show host Glenn Beck admitted he made an error and said he should have supported Marco Rubio instead.

Heck, had he done that sooner, Cruz may have had a better shot at the nomination.

[NonValueAdded]

Don’t tell me he cried ...

[SweetPatriot84]

This guy is ridiculous. I wonder how he still has listeners.

[Mermaid Girl]

Oh no, Glenn, you went full-on retard...
I thought Cruz showed great dignity endorsing Trump. Putting country before political career — well done.
Someone on here called Beck “Cheetoh head” — not sure what happened to the guy. He was funny and insightful in his day — now he’s just a dangerous idiot. And Cheetoh Head is a brilliant nickname.
