Cruz Mocks Trump’s CPAC No-Show, Slams His ‘Flexible’ Immigration Stance (

by BRENDAN BORDELON March 4, 2016

National Harbor, Maryland — Ted Cruz ripped Donald Trump’s decision to back out of his scheduled speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference, mocking the billionaire real-estate mogul during his own CPAC address before slamming the Republican front-runner for his claim during last night’s debate that he was “flexible” on immigration.

“So Donald Trump is skipping CPAC,” Cruz said just moments after taking the stage Friday afternoon, prompting a chorus of anti-Trump boos from the crowd. “I think somebody told him Megyn Kelly was going to be here. Or even worse, he was told there were conservatives that were going to be here.” “Or even worse, he was told there were libertarians that were going to be here!” he continued, as the crowd cheered. “Or even worse, he was told there were young people that were going to be here!”

CPAC has attracted far left homosexual groups, why the heck would Donald Trump want to be a part of that

Notice how no one in the media has asked Ted Cruz about his buddy Glenn Beck threatening to STAB Donald Trump..imagine if Sarah Palin had threatened to stab Mitt Romney or Marco Rubio, the media would be playing it over and over again and the secret service would have paid her a nice little visit

Cruz is lying right there since at this point he knows he can’t do anything else but deny Trump the number he needs to win, and he must also know that there’s no way in hell that at a convention they’re going to give him the nomination. Cruz is totally with the program at this point, unfortunately, and is actively collaborating with the Marco Rubio campaign. Cruz’s spokesman early on praised Romney’s speech, then he must have decided to pretend he is against their machinations when he saw the push back.

Trump has given cash to LGBT groups and their largest supporters like Clinton, Reid, and Pelosi

-—Notice how no one in the media has asked Ted Cruz about his buddy Glenn Beck threatening to STAB Donald Trump..——

I was unaware Cruz controlled what idiotic things flows out of Becks mouth....

That being said, the media will give Beck a pass because it’s clear he has serious mental issues....and he will start to cry...

Why Cruz doesn’t distance himself from that loon is beyond me....probably loyalty....

I see Trump as a normal guy. Obviously he’s a billionaire but I mean more in the sense of just saying what he believes. He’s not infallible, he changes his opinion when understands facts more etc. but I sense a degree of genuine anger from him and his willingness to go against the grain and say it loudly and boldly is refreshing.

Cruz should go take the knife away from Beck and take the high road.
