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 youve never been unfaithful to your wife, Fiorina awkwardly jumped in, with a subsequent exchange going as follows:
Fiorina: If I may Reporter: No, Im sorry. I asked the Senator that question. Fiorina: Well, Im gonna comment, OK? Reporter: Do you have first-hand knowledge of his marriage? Fiorina: Im gonna comment. This is an example of the media playing to Donald Trumps 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 Trumps tune? Lets 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 Trumps henchmen.
Cruz of course was using legalese there, which could have of course referred to any National Enquirer story. He did not answer the reporters actual question about his faithfulness.
As Trump emphasized during his appearance on The Savage Nation yesterday, it was Marco Rubios 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 wasnt 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 candidates 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. Cruzs 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 hell drop Ted Cruz like a hot potato if the sex scandal allegations turn out to be true.
Beck added that But if youre a serial guy, like five of them during this campaign, thats insane, a totally different person han we think Ted Cruz is But, laughingly, Beck pointed out that Cruz doesnt have enough game. Were not talking Tom Cruise. Its Ted Cruz, have you watched him?
Beck has taken in recent weeks to referring to Cruz as the anointed one, beseeching Christian voters that its 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: Hes 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 theres smoke, theres 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.
Heidi hasn’t disappeared . Supposedly she is in WI starting up a “Women against STD’s for Cruz” chapter.
just joking
I can hear the dramatic music and sinister laugh as I read your post.
Quite the melodrama.
Maybe you are right, but completely beside the specific topic regarding the claim made that Cruz did not deny it.
Cruz did deny it.
Echo chamber optics.
Trump isn’t talking about the story, except to say that he had nothing to do with it. Cruz is accusing Trump of being behind it without a shred of evidence. And as noted he won’t address the issue directly.
Yep. Cruz is so done, you can stick a fork in him.
I’d be surprised if he can keep his Texas Senate seat with all the backstabbing and supporting the rioters and left winger trouble makers. There will be tons of video of him siding with the enemy during this campaign for his opponent to use.
Carly fooled around, too, years ago with her now current husband who was previously married. I don’t know why she feels she has to speak on his behalf. I think she has such a hatred for Trump, she will use this as her soapbox to try and rip Trump to shreds.
I do feel bad for Heidi. It is a pain like no other.
WTF? I have not been listening to Beck lately, but I'm dubious that he would say that. Does anybody have a transcript to put that in context?
(King Saul was "anointed", and so was King David, but "anointed one" would in later times mean "Christ" (in Greek) or "Messiah" (in Hebrew)).
Needs a zot, unless all of these images in Wisconsin of Heidi Cruz are fictitiously labeledhttp://www.bing.com/images/search?q=heidi+cruz+in+wisconsin&qpvt=heidi+cruz+in+wisconsin&qpvt=heidi+cruz+in+wisconsin&FORM=IGRE; need someone there to comment.It looks like the campaign strategy changed when the polls showed Cruz closing the gap on Trump in WI, so that putting Heidi Cruz in that state would be helpful
yep this is right up there with Sheriff Arpaio’s Cold Case Posse “Earth Shattering News”.
False.
More speculation and innuendo from the land of the Trump cult.
RE: Sorry but the reality is that the man who wrapped himself in the Christian cloak really was wearing no clothes
Where’s the evidence? Two of the named women have denied the story?
I’ve been asking for the names of the rest since last week and thus far .... crickets.
You do not do our side any favors with photos like that. Heidi's personal problems ARE NOT fair game.
A man who can’t tell the truth to save his reputation is done.
And the fact Cruz didn’t sue National Enquirer is telling, indeed.
I loved UT’s stupid Mormon voters being given their own comeuppance.
Ted doesn’t look so saintly now, does he?
RE: And as noted he wont address the issue directly.
He has denied the story, called it false and garbage more than once.
What else do you want him to say? You want him to keep dwelling on this to the detriment of his campaign?
I think that’s the idea.... to keep pounding and pounding on a sideshow story to distract him from his campaign.
Have you, Uncle?
