Accusing Senator Ted Cruz of voter fraud, Donald Trump today argued that Mr. Cruz "stole" the election in Iowa.
"That is why all of the polls were so wrong, and why he got far more votes than anticipated," Mr. Trump said on Twitter, suggesting no one predicted that Mr. Cruz would win:
Ted Cruz didn't win Iowa, he stole it. That is why all of the polls were so wrong and why he got far more votes than anticipated. Bad!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 3, 2016
Mr. Trump then went further, saying Mr. Cruz committed fraud, suggesting that Cruz's campaign suggesting that Ben Carson would drop out amounted to fraud, as did his campaign's mailers about "voting violations:"
Many people voted for Cruz over Carson because of this Cruz fraud. Also, Cruz sent out a VOTER VIOLATION certificate to thousands of voters.— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 3, 2016
The Voter Violation certificate gave poor marks to the unsuspecting voter(grade of F) and told them to clear it up by voting for Cruz. Fraud— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 3, 2016
Sigh....
i apologize.
that is bad. It wont happen again.
That sums it up perfectly:
RE: “He does not have the temperament to do the job.”
Trump is a overly proud loudmouth man-child Billionaire.
Just watch him self-destruct.
People here need to realize they are being played.
Hilarious!
Cruz is also a secret supporter of the Maple leaves !
I tell ya , we just cant trust him
I think it’s less of a rhetorical device and more of just being inarticulate.
I will vote for either, but I will not vote for Rubio... can’t wait to see what happens in NH because I hope Rubio sinks like a boat anchor! Fast and to the bottom!
Great shades of an Obama doppelganger....can Trump really believe he is sooooooo "superior" over mortal men that the ONLY WAY Iowans didn't recognize his greatness and vote for him, was because Cruz cheated? WOW
“So you don’t like Ted’s faith? This is a pro-God website in case you didn’t know.”
Ted’s faith: Situational Ethics? The end justifies the means? Spewing Bible verses and taking on a televangelist-type preaching cadence doesn’t translate to anything particularly wonderful when it comes to faith. It’s creepy.
People on a “pro-God” site would not bolster a liar.
Cruz has no more to do with CIA than any one in the Senate with oversight, same for NSA as for Bush.. Bush supported Dewherst whom Cruz defeated.
Rubio is about to join Cruz in the bullseye. I do not think he will fair as well.
Trump is the WORST LOSER-——EVER!!!
I agree with you. I started out as a Cruz fan, then migrated to Trump. I’m just as happy with either. However, Trump needs to learn the art of graciousness, and stop the whining.
I also disagree with Trump over ethanol, and cautious of his mysterious healthcare plan...on the urface it sounds a lot like the Canadian system, socialized medicine.
I admire his energy and no-nonsense approach to getting things done, but he’s damaging himself by too must boasting, and whining.
I’ve listened to every one of his speeches, at every rally, and it occurs to me why he doesn’t need a TelePrompTer...it’s the same thing, over and over. At some point he needs to stop cheerleading, and get serious.
Take a course in grammar. Then reply. It’s illegible now.
How can you say that with a straight face.
His campaign chair is Chad Sweet.
Sheesh, do you know anything about the Chertoff Group
Oh... you go to Confession on a weekend. I’m a Christian; I confess daily.
I think we may be. He is accustomed to control and ‘winning’. This slight loss in IA may be enough to change everything. Frankly, he did well there by historical terms and had he not had that January surge back into 1st, his 2nd place would have been considered a win. The expectations rose that he was going to simply run the table. I suspect he will still win NH, but if he doesn’t have a good week, it will tighten quite a bit and if Rubio were to sneak into 2nd, the entire dynamics change drastically.
Last week Trump actually “ordered” Cruz to get out of the race. This is just more bullying tactics to get his name out in the media as “the story” and take the entire race back to the gutter. Our country is going to hell in a handbasket and this is what he is whining about?!! At this point, it’s “anyone but Trump” as far as I’m concerned.
