RSBN is doing its best to keep you updated in real time about what certainly seems to be the effective end of the Cruz campaign, as the multiple-mistress scandal continues to linger and fester.
As of this afternoon, March 29, the Cruz campaign appears to be spinning out of control, if not already finished. It may be just a matter of time.
Not that Big Media is particularly doing much to do anything but bury the story. The trumpophobic media of course is relying on Cruz to remain in the race as its last hope of possibly preventing Trump from receiving the 1,237 delegates required for the Republican nomination.
The big news of the last day or so, make no mistake, is that Heidi Cruz has gone MIA. She canceled her New Jersey campaign events that were scheduled this week, including a fundraiser in Morris County scheduled for Wednesday.
Additionally, she has not tweeted since Friday, the day after the Cruz-infidelity story broke in the National Enquirer.
Additionally, yesterday Cruz added suspicion by hamhandedly attempting to avoid a question on the infidelity issue. Instead, he figuratively hid behind the skirt of Carly Fiorina.
When Cruz was asked by a reporter from DailyMail.com yesterday to tell “on the record that you’ve never been unfaithful to your wife,” Fiorina awkwardly jumped in, with a subsequent exchange going as follows:
Fiorina: “If I may…” Reporter: “No, I’m sorry. I asked the Senator that question.” Fiorina: “Well, I’m gonna comment, OK?” Reporter: “Do you have first-hand knowledge of his marriage?” Fiorina: “I’m gonna comment. This is an example of the media playing to Donald Trump’s tune.”
Fiorina then tried her best to change the subject, saying “Donald trump is a serial philanderer, by his own admission. And in a week when we have had a terrorist attack in Brussels, a shooting on Capitol Hill, the president of the United States in the baseball stands with Raul Castro, and insisting that he be photographed in front of a portrait of Che Guevara with the two Castro brothers, we are talking about a scurrilous, ridiculous piece in the National Enquirer. Why do you all dance to Donald Trump’s tune? Let’s talk about the issues, please.’
Given another attempt to answer the specific question, Cruz responded with “Sir, I recognize that you love going into the gutter with these kind of … [several parties talking at once].”
Cruz did say, thereafter, that “the National Enquirer story is complete garbage. It is total lies. It was planted by Donald Trump’s henchmen.”
Cruz of course was using legalese there, which could have of course referred to any National Enquirer story. He did not answer the reporter’s actual question about his faithfulness.
As Trump emphasized during his appearance on The Savage Nation yesterday, it was Marco Rubio’s campaign which had been peddling the Cruz-mistress story for some time, and Trump himself had nothing to do with its promulgation. In fact, Trump (who of course wasn’t there 24/7 and thus cannot be entirely sure that there was no infidelity) expressed to Savage that he thought the allegations were “garbage.” Note, as was the case with Cruz also using the term “garbage” to describe the allegations, the use of the word “garbage” does not necessarily mean that one thinks the allegations are untrue.
Meanwhile, the Cruz campaign has resorted to attempting to deflect attention from its candidate’s meltdown by playing up the ridiculous-to-the-point-of-almost-hilarious charge of “battery” in Jupiter, Florida against Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski. This “battery” consisted of a slight inadvertent brush-up against publicity-seeking, now-former Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields when both parties were on a crowded stage. Cruz’s campaign manager Alice Stewart attempted to exploit the bogus charge against Lewandowski, saying, apparently not jokingly: “Unfortunately, this abusive behavior seems to be part of the culture of the Trump campaign.”
As for the division of the Cruz campaign know as The Glenn Beck Program, Beck said yesterday that he’ll drop Ted Cruz “like a hot potato” if the sex scandal allegations turn out to be true.
Beck added that “But if you’re a serial guy, like five of them during this campaign, that’s insane, a totally different person han we think Ted Cruz is…” But, laughingly, Beck pointed out that Cruz “doesn’t have enough game. We’re not talking Tom Cruise. It’s Ted Cruz, have you watched him?”
Beck has taken in recent weeks to referring to Cruz as the “anointed one,” beseeching Christian voters that it’s their religious due to vote for Cruz.
Some Cruz supporters are certainly troubled by the way the story is playing out. According to Tanna, one now-former Cruz supporter: “He’s so done. His entire campaign has been based on being a moral elitist being above and more GODLY than the rest of us and I took the bait. Shame on me. Last time I fall for that preacher crap.”
In sum, whether the adage that “where there’s smoke, there’s fire” applies to the Cruz-infidelity story is, for now, for you to decide. We at RSBN suspect the soap opera known as the Cruz Campaign will be providing a final answer very shortly.
For some reason Cruz just will not admit, openly, that he KNOWS this was Rubio and the gopE. That’s why I think it’s him helping the gopE destroy Trump. And he actually trusts the gopE to stand good on whatever it is they promised him.
True dat.
Hey, Brad and Angelina are about to split up because of Brad's infidelity so says the National Enquirer. He's not running for office though.
“Has Trump denied partying with Epstein and little girls on rape island?”
Has Ted denied raping Glenn Beck as was claimed by Beck on the radio yesterday?
So you would believe he’s innocent if he threatened the Enquirer? Can’t speak for you, but that wouldn’t influence many people. He’s in a no-win situation at the moment. It seems most have already deemed him guilty, regardless of evidence. I doubt much of anything he could say would sway anyone.
I am glad he’s not running around making baseless legal threats. I’m a conservative who has stood for tort reform my whole adult life. I despise the modern quick-to-sue mentality. That’s the crap I expect from Democratic candidates like John Edwards.
For the record, as I’ve stated elsewhere, I’m not in love with any of the candidates, but I’ll vote for the nominee. So don’t have the idea I’m here defending my guy. I simply hate watching our side rip into one another and act juvenile. I also hate to see someone convicted without actual evidence. However, if Cruz has had affairs, I suspect actual evidence, as opposed to innuendo, will be produced and he will suffer the just consequences of his own actions. The demise of his career will be on the man in the mirror and no one else.
Another lying cheating lawyer? .... naahh... couldn’t possibly be true. /sarc
#159 please post the exact allegation the N.E. printed. All they said was rumor was...
It was a smear job by Donnie Trumps close personal Friend David Pecker. That is a fact!
If I t wasn’t the would have been specific and named names. But that was not their intent.
“That’s why I think it’s him helping the gopE destroy Trump.”
That’s a possibility. Another is that he just sees it as an opportunity to take advantage of.
You just acknowledged you are a idiot. Congrats. Pick up your Trump Republic Guard badge on your way out
“Did you ever notice how he attacks women based on their appearance”?
Only when they are ugly inside and out Rosie.

“Cruz would never win Colorado in a million elections. Trump can, probably will.”
The last polls from Nov, show both candidates beating Hillary in CO, and that’s important.
If CO goes blue, then that’s bad, it means the republican has to win NH, NV, NC or VA, tough states for a pubbie to win.
#177 you fool. Your baseless allegation about the PAC money.But you know that already. You’ve only been corrected what a dozen or two times?
Smear merchant!
I’m amazed that anyone believes the “National Enquirer.”
Remember the National Enquirer going after Carson when Carson briefly started challenging Trump in the polls? “Bungling Surgeon Ben Carson Left Sponge in Patient’s Brain!” Why would the National Enquirer publish such a story?
“…Trump and Enquirer CEO David Pecker have been friends for years. “They’re very close,” said a source close to the Enquirer.”
Same story, different candidate.

“Cruz can thank his lucky stars that Rush, AKA The Mayor of Realville, has neglected to report on the Infidelity Story.”
Likely because Rush knows it’s a BS tabloid smear.
“Cruz is guilty as hell.”
Yeah? Then share the links to the evidence and let the rest of the world in on it.
so cruz did explain to the FEC about the 500 grand, could you ten give me the information and also can you stop the name calling.

#194 never mind the facts when smears do the damage. So say the TRump Republic Guards.
However, in the case of a tRumpf operative even video is not enough.
But Corey was arrested today never the less!
They always save Sex for last . This story was started by the Clintons , Obama or the GOP
