CRUZ: Trump is DISTURBED that conservatives are rallying behind me
The Right Scoop ^ | Jan 14, 2016 | The Right Scoop

Posted on 01/14/2016 11:12:42 AM PST by Isara

Ted Cruz told reporters, who once again asked about the Trumped-up phony eligibility claims, that Trump is disturbed that conservatives are rallying behind him, and that he’s only attacking him because he’s losing in Iowa:

Cruz: Trump is worried because he's trailing in Iowa (Video)

It’s so true that Trump is disturbed. Remember when Ben Carson was leading in Iowa? Trump told Iowans they were stupid for supporting Carson and accused Carson of having some ‘pathological condition’.

When Trump is a desperate man he’ll say anything to win, no matter how ridiculous and dishonest. And his fervent Trumpers will follow right along, not even noticing their own blatant hypocrisy. They’ll passionately defend Trump when he mocks a disabled journalist, but when Trump tells them to question Cruz’s eligibility (even though it is not in question), they go all in.

Honesty is not something that Trump employs when he gets desperate and even though his fervent followers really don’t care, I hope it will be his undoing.

Seeing that JimRob had to yank a pathetic attempt by Cruz supporters to demand yet again that FR ban Trump supporters (for just being that), and you guys have to spam FR with 100 articles a day (saying the same thing over and over again), it’s clear that the “desperation” is firmly on your side of the fence.

Why wouldn’t we after Trump told us ‘Sorry” in his entry to the campaign. No one forced him to tell us to pound salt. He did it all on his own.

It will all play out as it should.

I know Cruz isn’t going to win NY or CA though.

Trump can.

Wow...He's bring up these inaccurate lib talking points? Is he joking? Was this not discussed many weeks ago and just then just ignored by all?

But Trump is leading conservatives everywhere in the country except in Iowa, that silly place where Ben Carson, Santorum and Huckabee look like viable candidates. Nevertheless, Trump was leading between 2 to 6 points or tied outright in the last batch of Iowa polls except Des Moines, and in that one Cruz had dropped 6 points and the two, technically, are tied due to the MOE. Meanwhile, PPP reported that the so-called Birther “lies” are hurting Cruz and may continue to hurt Cruz, since 40 percent of his supporters apparently didn’t even know he was born in Canuckistan.

Maybe it’s Cruz who is feeling disturbed here.

I believe Trump wouldn’t hesitate to fire every executive regulatory department employee and make them start over.

Would Cruz do the same?

Because they were good articles that belonged there. Cruz supporters keep posting the same threads over and over again and then get upset when they get taken down from front page or breaking news.

Trump had indicated that if people were not interested in him as president then he would be out of the race.

If you want to see desperation, just look in the mirror.

I saw that. When I went to post again, I saw it was pulled. Silly argument.

Why are they trying to ban Trump threads and Trump supporters. Did this site not go all through this during the corrupt Bush years?

It’s like some of Rafael supporters are Homeowners Association types. I never did like controlling people who have a fetish to control everything including the dialog or politics.

Well based on Ted’s rallies that is plenty of room to line up behind him, next to him and in front of him. Wait, the first row is reserve for those “conservative” Goldman Sachs donors.

It’s more of a if they cant “shame” and belittle people into backing Cruz, then they will just get rid of all of them and create a “safe space”.

Yesterday you and others did hit pieces and you showed your graph, though you took Rubio out of it after I told you the graph means nothing when it shows Rubio a conservative.

I and others are sick and tired of both sides i.e. like you placing attack ads and doing the lefts bidding.

Both sides need to knock it off as we have to deal with attacks from the establishment and the left. You seem to enjoy doing their bidding too day after day.

How about knocking it off and looking at the establishment and the left , unless you are on their side.

Everyone is grinding their axe. That’s fair.

Jim Thompson’s remarks on Trump and Cruz are approximately:

“Go Trump! Go Cruz! We Win! They Lose!”

“They” being the uniparty GOPe.

Fair enough. I love that we’re down to two candidates either of which will crush the uniparty. I have more trust in Cruz’s ability to do that permanently, and be a thorough conservative while doing it, so I support him. But I could totally vote for Trump, because the most important issue in front of us is the existence of the uniparty. Anything that hurts them has to be the goal.

Let’s keep playing as nicely as we can while we beat the bastards back to their country clubs and then firebomb them there!

(politically speaking ....)

Now that’s funny! But scary too.

Who was the poster/posters attempting to get everything banned?
