A pro-Ted Cruz robo-telephone call is blasting Donald Trump for butting his nose into support of the Confederate flag coming down.
The recorded message, coming late in the campaign, also takes a jab at Gov. Nikki Haley.
âPut it in a museum, let it go,â the recording says, quoting Trump and his view on removing the flag.
An announcer then picks up by saying âThatâs Donald Trump supporting Nikki Haley removing the battle flag from the Confederate memorial in Columbia.â
It adds âpeople like Donald Trump are always butting their noses into other peopleâs business,â and that âTrump talks about our flag like itâs a social disease.â

You are an idiot.
“So you Trump supporters are now big advocates of political correctness?”
Up is down, left is right, in is out.
Donald Trump will save our nation.
The greatest American since George Washington.
“Stay out of our state’s business!” says the guy from another state.
It’s ridiculous for the victor to add new penalties and punishment to the loser in a war 150 years after the fact. The war is over and demanding more reparations now is over the line. We wouldn’t go to Japan and start demanding they change their flag or give up more stuff now on account of WW2.
Them wanting to get rid of the flag isn’t about the Civil War and if it isn’t about the war, then they don’t even have an iota of a flimsy excuse for doing it. It is a brand new cultural imperialism from the left that didn’t exist a mere 30 years ago when even Hollywood produced popular TV shows showcasing the flag (Dukes of Hazzard).
or that Trump’s wife has only been an American since 2006 or the results of the law suit going on over Trump University? or on Trump’s touch back amnesty? and your post that Heidi Cruz tried to subvert the constitution is a lie
Sounds like a phony anti-Cruz call.
[You are an idiot.]
You’re clearly a Cruzer, considering the lack of imagination behind that comeback...
Probably fake Cruz, but Haley and Trump were both with soebarkah on this.
I am all for the confederate battle flag as it stands for states rights and the attitude of the US. However, it isn’t a flag that northern people tend to get and Cruz is trying to get their votes too.
Besides, Cruz is also a Canadian. Well, he was until 2014 when he decided to run for US president instead of a Canadian political office and terminated his Canadian citizenship.
Attacking the RINO governor in Iowa didn’t hurt him. Doubt it hurts here.

I have zero problems with the confederate flag but I am pretty sure the Republican party - aka the party ff Lincoln was anti-Confederacy.
Anyone who says that Cruz should lose his senate seat is either an idiot or a troll. Take your pick.
John C. Breckenridge washed up in Cuba after the war, and Ambrosio Jose Gonzales was a Cuban revolutionary who became a Confederate general. His family founded The State newspaper in SC.
Not to mention Loreta Janeta Velazquez, who [claims to have] fought as "Lieutenant Harry Buford."
As an avid defender and supporter of southern heritage, I think this is a brilliant move by Cruz. There are a lot people in SC who (like me) are livid over the PC leftist crowd’s nazification of our CBF. This will resonate more than you realize.
And the democrats used to follow Jefferson, what’s your point?
I was hoping Trump's position on this would be brought up.
The confederate flag debate should not be important for the political party that defeated the confederacy.
Right if conservatives want to win they need to become liberal like Trump.
He’s betting that Haley is not as popular as you think. But it is SC; so I wouldn’t get my hopes up.
good grief, Trump is against the Confederate Flag also?
*sigh*
