Apology?

Sen. Coburn: Cruz’s Ploy Was Dishonest

http://www.msnbc.com/morning-joe/sen-coburn-cruzs-ploy-was-dishonest

I don’t fully understand what the hell Coburn is talking about but he did say that Cruz is dishonest.

Trump should run ads about this in all 50 states.

He was saying that Cruz shouldn’t have argued that the House should defund Obamacare. He didn’t want Cruz to take the stand he did and was upset that the government got shut down. Honestly, the Cruz camp would probably be happy to pay you to produce that commercial.

Trump should quit running his toilet mouth and retire.

After his self destruction nobody is going to trust him to take out the garbage in the rain.

Coburn squirms on this one rather dramatically, doesn’t he?

There is an avalanche of Coburn taking on Cruz for “misrepresenting” outcomes, flag waving for the folks, and accomplishing virtually nothing after the show boat performance run ends, but for another kind of run— for the highest office in the land, for the rubes to support.

A run of ads in all 50 states would end this Coburn dust up.
All of it is on the record and half of it on film! LOL!

Trump is misreading the article about Coburn. The quote Trump is using comes from the author of the article - Coburn's criticism wasn't quite as sharp.

Former GOP Senator Blasts Pathological Liar Ted Cruz for Constantly Misleading Americans
Former Republican Sen. Tom Coburn critiques 'Cruz effect' on Congress

"When you tell people you can accomplish something that you can't, for example, shutting down the government over the Affordable Care Act," said Coburn, "you create greater disappointment in the hinterlands, because you gave them a false hope, knowing that you couldn't accomplish it, but it was about yelling, and screaming, and waving the flag."

I hope Trump figures this out, and does some sort of mea culpa on Coburn's behalf.

“To create the impression that we can actually defund Obamacare, when the only thing we control, and barely, is the House of Representatives, is not intellectually honest,” Coburn said on Thursday’s Morning Joe.

As per usual, the elites tell us what can't be done which is intellectually dishonest. Democrats, Republicans and others wanted Obamacare to be defunded, but the Democrat politicians were more interested in obeying their bosses than in doing what their constituents wanted.
