Ted Cruz's Latest Dirty Trick Is Almost Too Much To Be Believed

MANCHESTER, N.H. -- Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) is out with a deceptive new mailer that masquerades as official government business and promises people there's a "check enclosed" when it's actually asking for money instead.

A New Jersey resident sent The Huffington Post the latest piece of mail he received from Cruz's campaign. The envelope appears to have come from Cruz's Senate office and has his name printed the same way it often is for Senate business. In small type the mailer clarifies that it is for "personal" matters and was not sent at taxpayers' expense. It also promises a check...

They’ve been drinking that slow-working Jim Jones-type Kool-Aid. It’s not going to kill them until November when Ted Cruz wins.

It’s a crappy election mailer.

Shame on Cruz, once again.

This is what you want to whine, bitch and moan about?

They will bitch and moan about anything and everything they can to destroy Cruz because they know he's their idiot's biggest threat and competition. They're skeered.

After the Republican convention, Ted Cruz will have to crawl back to his Senate seat and be Juan in 100. ;-)

You're right. Let's help them in a more humane way. Let's get the local Politicians to condemn their homes so they can build some garages and Casinos complete with call girls. Yeah Baby...

Were you not able to find something in THE WORKER’S DAILY to attack Cruz with?

So, Trump can slime Cruz of being ineligible...

And yet Trump says that he's considering Cruz for VP.

Did Trump forget that Cruz was born in Canada?

Actually, I think Cruz sent me a check for $5 and then when I didn’t cash it they sent me something wondering why I didn’t cash it.

To me this whole marketing thing is too manipulative. He can manipulate someone else with is mailers.

Or The Mouth can go back to being best pals and donate large amounts to the Political ambitions of the Bill and Hillarys of the Democratic Party and hob nob with the NY Liberals Like Chuck Schumer.

Who knows he may even have another “Moment” when he realizes Abortion is cool again and Illegal Immigration is something we have to stop being mean about.

We might if we are all real lucky, get to hear about a few more of his acts of adultery. /s

Most people have had a belly full of FRAUDS, Liars and thieves who hide behind their millions and mouthpieces that change their political positions depending on what office or politician they are trying to buy.

Deal with it.

It's okay, his lawyers fully looked into that last August. Said he was A okay, good to go. Remember? :)

This is why someone that is running for public office should not be put on a different Mind altering medicine in the middle of a campaign. They can't think straight until the Doc get's the levels where they need to be.

it seems the pusscake mentality is starting to effect all types. Dirty tricks, indeed! It’s politics as usual, so don’t delude yourselves. A dirty trick is when a bar owner had a contest whoever sold the most beer in a month would get a new “Toyota”. One waitress busted her ass and won, much to her dismay a Star Wars doll. The owner said it was a new toy Yoda! Now that’s a dirty trick!

The Canadian attempted usurper of the Constitution is going nowhere. Nobody likes him. Nobody trusts him because he is sneaky and slimy. He dangled $1-million dollar contribution in front of the Vets and never intended to give it. The money is still in his campaigns pocket. How disgusting. What a poser.

America can be proud again with President Trump. He follows through for the Vets. Unlike poser Cruz.

The issue is when we used those lies to buoy our point of view. Posting slanted articles from dubious sources to dissect and discredit is another thing altogether.
