Sen. Ted Cruz claims that Roger Stone, The Daily Caller Mens Fashion editor, decides what Matt Drudge posts on his website Drudge Report.
In an interview with Mike Slater on The Mike Slater Show Monday, Cruz said, If people want to get on the Trump train, they can. I actually think we need real and meaningful solutions to the problems in this country, and as president my focus is going to be on three things: jobs, freedom and security.
Slater asked Cruz what he thought of the Drudge Report and the Texas senator replied, Look, Drudge Report over the years has done a good job highlighting the excesses of the left and the excesses of liberalism, and about the past month the Drudge Report has basically become the attack site for the Donald Trump campaign.
And so every day they have the latest Trump attack. Theyre directed at me. It by all appearances, Roger Stone now decides whats on Drudge, and most days they have a six-month-old article that is some attack on me, and its whatever the Trump campaign is pushing that day will be the banner headline on Drudge.
By the way, they no longer cover news. Remember they used to have things like election results? They dont put those on Drudge anymore. When we win a state, suddenly the state doesnt matter. You know Colorado there was no red siren on Drudge when we won all 34 delegates in Colorado. That wasnt news, because I mean listen, thats fine, Cruz said.
Later Cruz said, My number one priority is bringing jobs back to America, raising wages for everyone, making it easier for people struggling to achieve the American Dream. Thats my focus. And Im going to let others worry about the silly political game and the circus.
LISTEN (begins at 15:16):
Please. Cruz wouldn’t even cover the NE story, which is his bread and butter.
Matts just following the ‘Rules’.
I mean Drudge, not Cruz.
“the past month the Drudge Report has basically become the attack site for the Donald Trump campaign”
Who’s crying now?
Sounds like words that will cement rumors Cruz is an Establishment lackey.
All of Cruz’ problems in life are because of Donald Trump.
Everytime he opens his mouth he reveals he has a screw loose.
Crooze squats and drops another lie.
Cruz nailed it. How can Drudge claim to be a “news” site when they’re posting links to 8-month old articles as their top “news” of the day?
They also never once reported that Scott Walker endorsed Cruz. And it’s non-stop pro-Trump headlines and anti-Cruz stories.
Cruz should complain about Twitter. Trump gets too many tweets. Wahhh!
I would like to know why all the Trump people are not more concerned about Trump’s involvement with Roger Stone.
If I were Cruz, the last person I would be picking a fight with is Matt Drudge!!!
Time for Matt to get a bit more proactive on investigating the National enquirers sources
Ted just shot himself in the foot
“Roger Stone now decides whats on Drudge”
This piece of crap, Cruz, will say anything...
Roger Stone has been a dirty trickster his entire political life, beginning with Richard Nixon. About 10 years ago, Karl Rove hired him to do some work for him. He also helped Al Sharpton. The guy is one huge walking sleaze bag. But for some reason Trump and his people don’t mind him. I am puzzled.
Cruz is lucky. Drudge has been nice in not mentioing Ted’s bimbo problem.
Won? I guess it all depends on the definition.
“Lyin’ Ted” Fit’s him to a “T”.
yeah remember when he “helped” Sharpton become president? Those years of President Sharpton sure sucked!
Cruz still talking about his great win in CO? The one where no one got to vote
