The ludicrous charge of failing with Trump Water and Trump Mints! And Cruz is going to get his head handed to him in New York State.

“A prominent aide to George W. Bush’s 2000 campaign could barely contain himself when we asked him to discuss Cruz, who worked in the Bush campaign’s policy shop.

This person described Cruz as hyper-arrogant and widely despised, and he emphasized—over and over—that the pervasive dislike of Cruz within the Bush ranks had nothing to do with ideology.

(Cruz, he noted, never objected to Bush’s call for compassionate conservatism, immigration reform, and national education standards, and no one on the campaign regarded him as an ideologue.)

The problem was simple: Cruz’s personality.

“Ted thought he was an expert on everything,” says this campaign veteran, who asked not to be named. “He was a smart and talented guy, but completely taken with himself and his own ideas. He would offer up opinions on everything, even matters outside his portfolio. He was a policy guy, but he would push his ideas on campaign strategy. He would send memos on everything to everyone. He would come to meetings where he wasn’t invited—and wasn’t wanted.”

In fact, this Bush alum recalls, “the quickest way for a meeting to end would be for Ted to come in. People would want out of that meeting. People wouldn’t go to a meeting if they knew he would be there. It was his inability to be part of the team. That’s exactly what he was: a big a$$hole.”

“I don’t know anyone who had a decent relationship with Cruz.” And when Bush became president, his top campaign aides agreed Cruz should not be offered a job in the White House.

“No one wanted to work with him,” this source remembers. “George W. Bush couldn’t stand the guy.”

This person adds, “It’s a real quandary for Bush campaign people: Trump versus Cruz, who to vote for? And it would be a big quandary even if it’s Cruz versus Hillary Clinton. That’s how much they cannot stand him.”

That mule had some kick recently in UT, WI, and CO!

The fact that Donald is whining so much about “the rigged RNC rules” lately signals that he knows he’s losing...

He’s going scorched earth because he’ll likely fall short on the 1st ballot in Cleveland, then suffer the fate of a “Loser”!

Oh, the horrors for such a humble fellow like Trump!

but but slavery was also a rule and you could beat your slaves without penalty. thatwas also a rule. People that claim rules are rules do not understand. honesty and integrity are the rules. ColGope wants non binding delegates just like in PA so when they get to the convention in cleveland they can tell the delegates who to vote for. That is all there is in CO and in PA and other non binding states. it is what it is and to me it just simply corrupt but we all know that.
