Ted Cruz camp: 'Blow to Sarah Palin' if she endorses Donald Trump

A spokesman for Sen. Ted Cruz's presidential campaign said Tuesday it would be a "blow" to former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin if she endorsed businessman Donald Trump for president.

"I think it [would] be a blow to Sarah Palin, because Sarah Palin has been a champion for the conservative cause, and if she was going to endorse Donald Trump, sadly, she would be endorsing someone who's held progressive views all their life on the sanctity of life, on marriage, on partial-birth abortion," Cruz campaign spokesman Rick Tyler said on CNN's "New Day."

You have to have your head under a rock for the last 20 years to think Trump has had a sudden change of heart. His support for the most extreme LIEberals and their causes should give everyone a clue into what they are supporting with a Trump endorsement.

There is, however, every reason to believe he is a one man wreaking crew in bringing the destruction of the Washington Mob that consists of our over bearing and lawless self appointed rulers who were elected by us, for us.

You are putting your faith in the man who admits, without shame, that he has been one who routinely buys politicians to get what he wants, and you think he’s going to clean up that mess?

You know, the one he helped perpetuate.

Weird.

I guess I'd have to hear it come across the wires to believe it. Hey, Ann Coulter came out and supported Romney, so I guess anythings possible.

Sore Cruzerman alert. :-)

I’m just saying that Robespierre was a flip flopper.

“Robespierre would be proud of you Trumpbots.”

In order to slaughter thousands you have to have the type of mind that is capable of dehumanizing people you disagree with. You know, like referring to them as “bots” and such.

You must be a Communist, because that was definitely classless.

[fingers_crossed]

you must be replying to the wrong person....your reply doesn’t even touch on the contents of my post

[hoosiermama]

.....”I think Trump bought FR, along with Breitbart and Drudge.”.....

To accuse Jim of being bribed is low. Particularly since he supports both against the establishment. Maybe you should consider finding another site more to your values

I think this is a build up to nothing. Perhaps Joni Ernst type. If it was Sarah, media would have been at airport with cameras.

While this place is known for a certain amount of frivolity, most of us are pretty keen on evaluation based on the merits.

LOL!

Hey, I’m an equal-oppportunity basher ... past 1,000 posts in research reference thread. A lot to cover before understanding what kind of ‘bot’ I am:

After the primaries, the endorsement is a given. The whole party marches behind the nominee. Endorsements only matter before the nominating convention has concluded its business.

[Yashcheritsiy]

Uh hunh. Last night, a Cruz supporter compared Trump supporters to female sex toys. Twitteribg Cruzbots are already smearing Palin *in anticipation* of her endorsing Trump (which it has yet to be seen that it will actually happen). On this very thread, one made on oral sex joke about her.

Stay classy, Cruzers.

[Yorlik803]

I beg to differ. If this was the case Trump wouldn’t be so big here. Nobody really cares enough to look at his past and how he praises and lavishes cash on liberals running for office. And that argument” that’s how the game is played” don’t hold water. Courage of conviction is what counts and Trump doesn’t have it. Cruz may be hated but at least he takes a side and stand by it. Trump is a windsock who points to whatever side benefits Trump.

Cruz living in the past..

July 27, 2012 Palin endorses Cruz for Senator form Texas.

[Jane Long]

PAC $$ says a lot, too.

Why would ANY ‘conservative’ candidate related PAC give $500K.....$500K!!!!...to iCarly’s campaign???

[servantboy777]

I find it hard to believe being that Sarah is indeed a conservative’s conservative.

[KGeorge]

You said

I would like her to influence Trump to come more up to her standards and character, before she endorses him.

That is what I replied to. And told you why. It would not matter if she ‘influenced him’. It will NEVER be acceptable for Palin to endorse anyone but Cruz. My gosh. When Phyllis Schlafly endorsed Trump, they called her senile!
