Cruz Kicks Off Women for Cruz Coalition in Madison, WI [VIDEO at link]

“This event this morning is a celebration of strong women.”

On Tuesday morning, Ted Cruz kicked off a Women for Cruz coalition in the liberal stronghold of Madison, Wisconsin. The senator was joined by his wife Heidi, mother Eleanor, and former presidential candidate Carly Fiorina for a conversation on issues considered important to women.

In a change of pace from prior events, Cruz gave a shortened stump speech and focused on the meaning of the term “women’s issue,” itself:

“This event this morning is a celebration of strong women. One of the most frustrating things about the Democrats is the Democrats love to pigeonhole women. Put ’em in a little box [and] you have a set of issues that are women’s issues. Well, listen. I have news for the Democrat party: Women are not a special interest. Women are a majority of the United States of America and every issue is a women’s issue.”

Cruz went on to say that his campaign is about three issues, those being jobs, freedom, and security. Despite the Democrat party’s effort to deem only issues advancing the progressive cause as valid women’s issues, Cruz made a point to emphasize that these three crucial issues are inherently women’s issues just as they are men’s.

Cruz then sat down with his wife, mother, and Carly Fiorina for a series of questions fielded by moderator Rebecca Hagelin.

Heidi Cruz spoke of having spent time in Africa as a child and the effect it had on her career choice. The daughter of a missionary and dentist, she explained how she came to appreciate the key tenets of American society and government. “You think about why these countries are so far behind [and] it is because they do not have a system of capitalism where people can borrow money, have an idea and be able to fund that idea, and produce a product.” Neither is there a system that allows for someone to take risk while baring the responsibility for that risk, she explained, and a court system for the pursuit of due justice. Lastly, she spoke of the lack of a political system free of corruption. “It is so important that we protect those three basic things about our democracy.”

Former Republican presidential candidate and Hewlett Packard CEO Carly Fiorina recalled the career path she travelled, having started as a secretary for a small real estate firm and finished as the head of a $90 billion technology firm. She emphasized the need to simplify the personal and corporate tax codes, stressing that nearly two-thirds of the nation’s job growth comes from small businesses. The problem today, she said, is an excess of power concentrated in the hands of a few:

“As the CEO of a 90-billion dollar firm, I could make a 73-thousand page tax code work for us. I could hire the lawyers, I could hire the accountants. I could hire the lobbyists. And we did.

You see all that complexity in the tax code? It favors the big. The big company over the small business. It favors the wealthy and the well-connected and the powerful, like Donald Trump, by the way, who is ‘the system.’ And he will preserve the system because he’s taken advantage of the system all his life.

So, why is Ted Cruz’ tax plan so important? Because it’s not just about lowering rates: it’s about simplifying … The reason being a constitutional conservative is so important to economic opportunity is because conservatives understand that the problem is too much power concentrated in the hands of too few. Too much economic power, too much political power.”

Although neither Mr. nor Mrs. Cruz addressed rumors printed in the National Enquirer, they did take time to describe a few things they appreciated most about each other.

The event this morning is one of several events the Ted Cruz has held in Wisconsin in the past week. A recent Marquette Law School poll has Ted Cruz pulling into the lead the with 40% of likely voters. Donald Trump follows with 30% and John Kasich trails with 21%. The poll is the final poll to be released before Wisconsin holds its primaries on Tuesday, April 5.

Keep living in fantasy land, and drink up that kool-aid

Provide some proof, how about it? We are at Hour 140 of this debacle, and the longer it doesn't come to resolution, the worse it looks for Trump and his Stone-Pecker connections.

[ozzymandus]

I can’t decide which obvious joke to post.

Hey another Selfie and condoms on the bed. This photo is on her Instagram.

Look at the condoms? Check out the guy’s jacket in the background.

[Ray76]

What?

[altura]

This is a good thing.

So many women cannot stand Donald Trump and will never vote for him.

I like that his mother, wife and Carly were there.

[altura]

There’s no way of knowing.

Trump supporters will do anything, anything to support this crazed and evil man.

[catfish1957]

Rather than fish though 1000's of tweets to just get to that date, I tried at least, how about just providing some proof instead of innuendo.

I'll make you a deal. If Cruz is guilty, I'll go for Trump. If it is found Trump is behind this, you switch sides then.

How about it?

[catfish1957]

You have proof that that is Cruz’ jacket? Hmmmm... didn’t think so.

[21twelve]

Fake or real!?

On one of those “twitter” series it had a photo of her walking down the street in a fur coat and smoking a cigarette. Cruz has the money to buy furs, and they must have just had sex because she was smoking.

Hey - it was on the internet!

[21twelve]

You are getting tiresome with all of your posts of fake twitters (the Grease song) and not understanding twitter. In the one about dating married men (which is real), Amanda is retweeting a post from Salon magazine. And probably explaining how Salon is tabloid trash, and that Salon is “Really going for it today” to get people to read their magazine.

And don’t get me started on “condom” packages.

[Enlightened1]

All I hear are excuses...

You have to seriously ask yourself why Cruz will not say “I never cheated on my wife Heidi”?

If this is all lies, then why does Ted not file a law suit against the National Enquirer?

It’s because EVERYONE KNOWS... he’s guilty.

[21twelve]

On that jacket - I was looking on line and it looks like a 3/4 length sleeve women’s jacket. The sleeves are even too short for her. It looks like it has a bit of padding on the shoulders too. AND - no hole on the lapel (for a flower?) that is typical for men’s suit coats, but not on women’s.

It’s on Amanda Capenter’s Twitter account genius.

She admits it but says it’s a joke.

As for the condoms it’s on her Instagram photos. Since she takes too many selfies.
