Alleged Cruz Mistress: ‘I Had A Purely Professional Relationship’ With Cruz (Amanda Carpenter)
DailyCaller.com ^ | 03/29/2016 | Steve Guest

Posted on 03/30/2016 6:38:24 AM PDT by TexasCajun

Amanda Carpenter, former communications director for Sen. Ted Cruz  (CR97%) and one of his alleged mistresses claims, “I had a purely professional relationship with Senator Cruz.”

In an in interview with with CNN’s Jake Tapper on “The Lead” on Tuesday, Carpenter said, “I’m stuck in this box where I am forced to try to defend every smear that comes after me, my husband, my children, online or suffer in silence.”

Tapper asked Carpenter, “Have you had ever any sort of intimate relationship with Senator Cruz, Anything at all? Anything that could be considered inappropriate?”

Carpenter, who is now a CNN political commentator replied, “No, I had a purely professional relationship with Senator Cruz. And I want too go further than that. I have been 100 percent faithful to my husband. There’s nothing more important to me than being a good wife and a good mother and it’s been very hard the past few days to have my character called into question and watch this blow back on them. So thank you for having me here to talk about it. And I hope no one else has to go through this.”

We all know that. Hell, I have friends in Finland. In fact, we, our Army, had several of Finland’s most heroic WWII fighters in our Special Forces. CPT Larry Thorne, COL.Pavlo Kiernam, and LTC Keravouri were all officers under the Lodge Act. Thorne held the Finnish CMH. For your INFO we were to deploy a missile defense system in Europe. The problem was we had a few President’s who refused to deploy the damn missile defense system. You can shout all your BS, but; you cannot change what our agencies are doing NOW.

Beck has never served anyone except the Mormon religion, his Fox show, his radio show and now he’s kissing Ted Cruz’s butt. Beck does not even have a degree.

Vague posts about your superior knowledge are not particularly informative or convincing.

The folks making the argument that Amanda Carpenter was his mistress are putting forward some objective information and then drawing conclusions from this circumstantial evidence. Not proof but it sure looks kind of hard to explain as innocent actions of married man who is supposed to be very bright.

The folks defending Cruz are using invective and any sort of disingenuous method to avoid responding to the issues raised. Indeed one could say they are deliberately attempting to insult those on the other side of the fence to avoid dealing with the real issue of: are these charges true?

For example not one of the Cruz defenders has dealt with the far more damaging issue of the 500,000 dollar payment to Carla’s PAC, and Its subsequent payments to the supposed mistress.

Not to say Cruz is guilty and he should be given the benefit of the doubt, but his defenders are not doing him any good.

Have fun playing with your straw man.

Doesn't have to be a photo of support. Any kind of veifiable social media source, stating, "Yeah, I was there with the whole group and that's what happened."

The ubiquitous smart phone photo op.

Odd isn't it where reporters and political operators all have at least one smartphone....

Go join iCarly in Ted's skirt wall

Lol- the only ‘strawman’ argument was put forth by you by insinuating ‘The military sometimes takes photos of tats together because they are ‘tight knit group of people’, therefore everyone else who gets tats must follow their example, and if they don’t they are guilty of infidelity’

Keep the rage alive fella! Let’s just hope for your sake that when you stand before God that witnesses don’t use innuendo, unsupported allegations, and ridiculous speculations against you in an effort to malign you and destroy you- but till then- do carry on with all the silly, biased assumptions

The only rat Cruz eliminated was Trump. The rest of the rats—look out!

Exactly. Cruz, his father, and it appears some followers have fallen for a very sick twisted interpretation of the Bible by man. Watch the video:

When each of stands before God,
Believe me, He needs no witnesses.
We stand completely alone.

Aside from all kidding and the juvenile jokes, most have not really condemned anyone. But why is it wrong to examine evidence? Twitter & Facebook, whatever-If they want a private life, they should live one and not broadcast every waking moment like fools on a reality show.

Soros likely has everyone watched in D.C., surveillance is cheap.

Amanda Carpenter is a very decent human being. The CONTRAST BETWEEN HER DECENCY AND THE VILENESS OF THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN AND HIS SUPPORTERS is stunning.

I’m not an adulterer. And I have a lot of woem friends. Some at work, some at church. It doesn’t matter.
People without the mental capacity to understand cannot grasp that there are many people out there fully committed to their spouses.

sharing tattoos is pretty close...and she had on a man’s suit coat.

She claims the Churchill tattoo was a staff-wide thing, not just she and Ted: "I think this April Fool's Day I might break out the fake Churchill tattoo again. Bc that's what it was. A staff wide joke. For April Fool's."

Also, that it was her jacket: "As for Cruz's jacket. Does he wear an elbow length jacket with ruched sleeves? Get back to huffing chem trails, trolls."

The Cruz people coordinated with Amanda Carpenter on an April Fool’s joke?

She was one of the Cruz people at the time. She was his senior communications advisor and speech writer.

So, her story could well be true.

I was watching the Hannity show last April 1st when Cruz sprung the joke tattoo on Hannity...Hanity fell for it and his stunned reaction was priceless.

It was funny, harmless fun and contrasts markedly with the dishonesty and vicious nastiness of the Trump people misuse of that humorous fake tattoo.

[[When each of stands before God,
Believe me, He needs no witnesses.

You know hte reason i said it- imagine if people/ slanderers were our only witnesses and our eternity relied on them speaking about us-

[[most have not really condemned anyone.]]

? Have you not been paying attention? People aren’t examining the evidence- they are inventing evidence- goign so far as to fake tweets with photoshop and fake photos to make it l ook like condom wrappers beside Amanda- and they are inventing demands that must be met in oder for the person to be declare3d innocent, plus inventing scenarios out of thin air that make the victims look guilty- it’s gotten so bad it’s like accusing a rape victim of causing their own rape-
