By now, everyone with an IQ above that of roofing tar has heard of the allegations of sexual infidelity by Sen. Ted Cruz (Cuban - TX (by way of Canada)).
I do not intend to review the entire timeline of this controversy, nor to engage in rumor mongering against Cruz, nor against Trump; still less to attribute the stories to any other candidate's campaign or shadow cabal or conspiracy.
I just wish to note that last night, Sen. Cruz held a press conference with Carly Fiorina (ex-CEO, Lucent) in which he was asked to affirm that he had never had an affair. But even as he hesitated before answering, Carly Fiorina interrupted. Quoting from the article:
Why do you all dance to Donald Trumps tune? she demanded to know of about 15 reporters in the room. Lets talk about the issues, please!
DailyMail.com directed the question a second time at Cruz when Fiorina had finished.
Senator Im sorry, this is a very serious question about your character, the second question came.
Will you just if the answer is, Yes, Ive always been faithful to my wife, can you just say so please?
His practised answer stuck to the more limited denial that the National Enquirer story was false, calling it complete garbage.
It is total lies, it was planted by Donald Trumps henchmen, and I dont think the people of Wisconsin or the people of America have any interest in tabloid trash.
A couple of things immediately came to mind.
1) Why is it another politician, and a female one at that, who is on the podium with him, instead of his wife?
2) Why does this female have to answer for him?
3) The reporter practically spoon fed him words to say to make the scandal go away. Why didn't he take the hint and the lifeline?
and finally...
4) why does his answer "...it was planned by Donald Trump's henchmen" remind me of Hillary and the Blue Dress?
It must be a vast Donald Trump conspiracy.
Then: It’s a vast right-wing conspiracy—— Now: It’s a vast Donald Trump conspiracy
Yep
I dont know if Cruz had affairs or not. I dont really care but then again what has that to do with whether or not hed be a good president?
Btw, Im voting for Trump. But I dont like that sort of tactic. Lets stick to the issues, man. Also, Im not of the belief Trump released this info. Didnt the Enquirer? Paper selling stuff and I think its beneath everyone.
Character matters along with “issues”. I’d say that IF a presidential candidate has had many outside sexual escapades (ie more than for instance, one girl friend/whatever) this denotes a grave character flaw, evidence of extremely poor judgement and impulse control, tendency to use and possibly abuse other people especially if any were in his employ - just a few off the top of my head. There are rumors of prostitutes as well.
People say “Well, Trump admits he had extra marital affairs and girlfriends” - I have heard of extra marital, and he has said he was a “man about town” and had various affairs. Definitely not palatable. But he admits it - whatever ill behavior he engaged in was (a) admitted, not lied about and (b) in the past.
It would be nice if both of them had none of this type of behavior. But being a 100% faithful husband of one wife as a sole arbiter of presidential material means Jimmy Carter was an excellent president.
The news (such as it has been so far) about Cruz’ alleged sexual profligacy is relevant because it indicates his character, honesty and trustworthiness, and how he will handle intense situations under fire.
Then - there’s the $500,000 to Fiorina’s SuperPAC and why, and other related actions in connection with the alleged sexual improprieties. And who knows what else. I am reasonably certain that if any of the alleged stuff is factual, we will know in the next week or so. People DO know, if there is truth to all this, and it will come out, if true.
It’s been reported over and over it was Rubio’s people, not Trump and yet Cruz and gang keep repeating over and over Trump made this up. Totally smarmy.
From the Voter Violation notices, to the “Carson quit” to the photo of Melania..and now Trump Trump Trump....Saint Cruz is running a really dirty campaign.
Makes me believe the reporter who said that privately Cruz is irreligious and mocks the evangelicals.
Oh - one more point. People with wrongdoing they are hiding are ALWAYS subject to blackmail. Without exception. That means they are OWNED.
“ Delete Social Media ”
Lee Atwater, who died in 1991 advised “delete social media”? What a freakin’ visionary he was. lol/s
It sure doesn’t sound like we would get that type of president with cruz.
that set off every alarm klaxon I have.
Lawyers and weasels parse things EXACTLY. The only honest people who practice that kind of precision are computer geeks and engineers.
She dropped it, nice girl. After an hour. She loved you. None of my biz, but... well, can you get hold of her? Maybe not too late for you 2?
The camp has sent the marching orders to the followers, notice the change here, mantra is all the same. ATTACK ATTACK the messenger, pile up make them back up stay together we can still win this. It is almost like the twilight zone, INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS or other similar ones. Last few days they knew it was probably true and He was going down, but they got their infusion from the camp today SAD.
Invasion of the Booty Snatchers?
Amazing isn’t it..that he had the foresight?
If you read just a bit further in my strangely formatted post you will see I lifted the information from CTH..so I assume the last bit from Phase Two of the Bimbo Eruption Operation is from the author of the piece.
No, sadly, it doesn't.
Her little black dress did that.
That one with the neckline down to her waist and the hem up to a few inches below that?
LOLOLOLOLOLOL,you crack us up.Thanks
That baby looks remarkably like Cruz. Well at least Cruz didn’t force Amanda have an abortion. I will give him that much credit.
People have increased brightness on the photo independently and see the same thing: rings. It's a condom package.
