Team Trump Preparing “Political Punch to the Face” Against Cruz Campaign?
Team Trump Preparing “Political Punch to the Face” Against Cruz Campaign? ^ | April 10, 2016 | DC Whispers

Posted on 04/10/2016 10:52:56 AM PDT by Art in Idaho

Will these whispers turn to shouts?

The word behind the word is that Paul Manafort is already earning his keep BIG TIME as he moves to deliver a stunning blow to the Cruz campaign a source describes as a potential “punch to the face” that involves the number 172.

Here is a brief summary of what will simply be called the “172 Plan” :

**Talks are ongoing and more numerous between Team Trump and a second party over the last 48-hours.

**If these talks lead to an agreement, it will be a game-changer in the 2016 Republican nomination process.

**Manafort is said to be personally leading the negotiations with Donald Trump’s full approval. In fact, it’s believed Manafort was the first to suggest this scenario last month but did so then more as an observer of the campaign. Now he is a top-ranking operative/adviser for Team Trump.

**This ongoing negotiation has sent the Cruz campaign scrambling to block further negotiation from materializing and getting a considerable assist from powerful GOP forces.

Thought I'd add some "musical" accompaniment to this thread, to help illustrate the "punch in the face" concept.   (I just hope that there are no f-bombs, or other bad words in the lyrics that I didn't pick up on when I heard the clip.)

 

"Mama Said Knock You Out" ("I'm Gonna Knock You Out")

I really hate when the media calls Florida and Ohio before our polls even close.

Yes, I remember voting several times right before 8 pm in Washington state and hearing the results on the radio on the way there. I voted anyway though. Wanted my vote to count. : )

“Sooooo.... Sleazeballs for Cruz—bad.
Sleazeballs for Trump — Good.
Do I have that about right?”

Cruz started it by stealing delegates; Trump will end it by choosing the VP he wants, and that won’t be Cruz. You steal delegates, you don’t steal a VP choice. Too bad, your side will be biting the dust soon. The Art of the Deal, lol. SORE CRUZERMAN.

I’m in SW Ohio and Kasich is closer to a big govt leftist - from pushing Common Core to expanding Medicaid/ObozoCare.

I’d rather see a more conservative VP candidate than Kasich.

I agree but we don’t always get what we want as many presidential candidates can attest. Remember Rinse mention that the delegates would be choosing the VP this year. What a bunk !

#nevertrump is more than a simple political statment - it’s a mission statement.

And a huge insult to Ted Cruz.

“It makes me sick to think that this man Trump may be so hated that the Hillary crime syndicate may capture America.”

One general election’s worth of listening to Hitlery screeching and lying with that fingernails dragging down a chalkboard raspy voice of hers, will have everyone flocking to Trump in droves. Between her cackles and cankles, she will lose to Trump in a landslide. Clinton is doomed as she and Ted Cruz are both repellant personalities. No one likes either of them. A couple of big-time losers.

“And a huge insult to Ted Cruz.”

Some Cruz supporters wear it and support it like a badge of honor, ethics and morality. Amazing how so called self professed “conservatives” bong the elite establishment kool-aid. Probably take it as an enema too. Drunk on it for sure.

I agree with Jim;

Trump isn’t Romney.

I doubt that Domino’s would deliver for Romney.

“If the convention issue is tight in June, I expect Trump will unite with Kasich or Rubio. Manafort may be pushing the ‘anything to win’ meme.
If it looks like Trump has 1237, I expect him to pick the VP he really wants.”

You hit the nail right on the head.

How does or does this tie into an I 72 form for ERC?
