Cruz Uses Carter's Words in Anti-Trump Ad
Breitbart ^ | 02/04/2016 | Michelle Fields

Posted on 02/04/2016 5:54:19 PM PST by MLL

Republican presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) 97% used former President Jimmy Carter’s words to bash Donald Trump in a new ad.

Cruz’s new ad uses a clip of former President Jimmy Carter telling the British Parliament that he would rather have Trump as president than Cruz.

“Trump has proven already that he’s completely malleable,” Carter says. “I don’t think he has any fixed opinions that he would really go to the White House and fight for.”

The ad then touts Carter’s assessment of Cruz.

“Ted Cruz is not malleable,” Carter says. “He has far right-wing policies, in my opinion, that would be pursued aggressively if and when he would become president.”

NOTE THE WORD "MALLEABLE." Describes Trump perfectly.

Trump - a National Populist.
Carter - an International Populist.

Trump’s stock-in-trade has been that he has all the right enemies.

Now he seems to be collecting more and more wrong friends.

Trump’s accusations have a lot more legs and substance than crap like this. Trump can’t control what Carter says and it doesn’t matter. Trump has been so smart to cultivate the south with all the huge rallies down there. If he wins NH it’s going to be a steamroller.

It’s such a dirty trick to re-play the words of a former President.

Michael Savage compared Cruz’s fake faith antics to Jimmy carter.

Carter prefers Trump who supports 1 war to Cruz’s 10 wars.

Ok, well we’ll see if that holds true. Maybe it will go all the way to the convention.

I think Cruz’s buddy Leon Wolf is right. Trump should stay way from “not bright” Jeff Sessions and that dummy Tulane Law school David Vitter.

“I don’t think Trump will win NH.”

He may get the most votes, but anything less than a solid plurality (-10) is a big loss for him after his long-term lead.

Worst case for Trump if no loss - he wins a tight race with Rubio, and Cruz pulls a solid 3rd.
