Behind Trump's CPAC deal gone bad
Politico ^ | March 4, 2016 | Kenneth P. Vogel

Posted on 03/04/2016 5:36:46 PM PST by Innovative

Donald Trump spent five years building a mutually beneficial relationship with the organization that hosts the annual Conservative Political Action Conference, filling its coffers with at least $150,000 in cash and scoring coveted speaking slots that started him on a course towards winning the Republican presidential nomination.

But he ended up canceling what would have been his biggest CPAC speech at the last minute amid plans for protest and disruptions, apparently deciding that his surging presidential campaign no longer needed any boost from the once-storied group.

Georgian English was different.

Obviously, you never had a history class either.

You must really enjoy showing everyone just how abjectly stupid you truly are.

LOL...CRuz is bought and paid for the the socialist/globalist Bush/Open Borders cabal.

Your projecting and hurling personal insults, here, is proof of your leftist stripes.

Aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh...the more things change, the more they stay the same.

The thing is, technology changes but mankind never does.

A TALE OF TWO CITIES is a great book!

Then WHY lie ?

Why are you consumed by thoughts of Trump's "family jewels"; are you queer ?

You’ve crossed the line with several of your posts, on this thead. Maybe you could just stop the personal attacks.

No he didn't.

I watched the debate, you said that you did NOT, I saw and heard EXACTLY what happened and your stupid link is not helping you any.

Thanks for that story.

What a sin that conservatives of all stripes can’t refrain from that sort of immaturity.

Too bad we can’t have civil discourse.

Auten Furse Jr. was on GHWB’s team in policy. Interesting that his SON is on Cruz’s team NOW, per the Politico article.

It really is. I read it in Junior High. Just went to my library (personal) and dug it out. Going to sit down and reread it again.

>>CRuz is bought and paid for the the socialist/globalist Bush/Open Borders cabal.

Many months ago, before all this information was discovered, I just couldn’t support him. I couldn’t put my finger on why, because at the time, I didn’t know the facts. It was more of a gut reaction to him, something was “off”.

Knowing how Karl Rove lives to plot and plot some more, I wondered what if Mr. Rove plans this out each cycle, with players like chess pawns, and picked Cruz to play his part, over the course of years, to deceive conservatives.

At the time, some thought that was contrived. And now here we are, discovering he is in about as thick as can be with these globalists.

As America slowly awakes to the depths of the deceit, I truly hope we, as a nation, can find our inner strength and resolve to truly restore our nation to its roots.
