‘You Gotta Stop!’ Hannity Loses His Cool with Ted Cruz Over Delegates
Mediaite ^ | 4/19/16 | Josh Feldman

Posted on 04/19/2016 3:22:36 PM PDT by markomalley

Sean Hannity got a little frustrated with Ted Cruz during a radio interview this afternoon over his campaign’s delegate game.

Cruz said he doesn’t think most people care about this stuff. Hannity shot back by invoking his millions of followers and saying plenty of people “find this whole process confusing.”

When Cruz dismissively said only Donald Trump‘s people are complaining, Hannity kind of blew up:

“Senator, why do you do this? Every single time––no, you gotta stop! Every time I have you on the air and I ask you a legitimate question, you try to throw this in my face, I’m getting sick of it!”

Cruz testily asked, “Sean, can I answer your last question without being interrupted?”

He explained how the system works and how the “noise and complaining and whining” is only coming from Team Trump. Hannity shot back that people have serious issues and “it’s a simple question, it’s not a Trump question.”

(video at link)

At one point, Hannity said, “Senator, I don’t know why you’re mad.” Cruz said he’s not mad, he’s just irked that he’s asking “only about the nonsense” and not about policy.

Hannity insisted he has asked the senator about policy plenty of times and simply wants to address

Listen to the entire interview above, via The Sean Hannity Show.

Why are we talking about delegate contests and campaign minutiae that can’t be changed at this point? Trump won’t talk about details on issues because he either (a) doesn’t have details, or (b) gets the details hopeless wrong.

You clearly have not done your research and are just spouting Trumpet talking points. Get back to me when you actually have studied the issues and where each candidate stands.

I couldn't believe Hannity. Speaking TRUTH TO POWER. He's the only one not under the control of the Superpacs. Cruz never did give him even a remotely relevant or straight answer. Weasel.

I am sure the Globalists got highly pissed at Hannity today. He better watch his back. He showed morals and guts and serious news guy, unlike we now see with Rush, Levin, Beck, etc etc etc.

You could tell---Cruz was LIVID!!!! "Don't you know who I am" was the tone of Cruz's voice when Hannity challenged him, "I'm the annoited one, the raising of the Priest" yadayada is what Cruz sounded like. He just get only softballs everywhere else or they just let him not answer.

Hannity, in the tank for the clumsy liberal poopulist, can’t take seeing the system work for the effective candidate.

Bye Sean, one more button free on the radio.

Good for Cruz. Hannity’s endless recitation of Trump campaign talking points is enough to make one gag on a Ruth’s Chris Steak.

Hannity has been more than fair and Ruth's Chris Steakhouse advertises on that Cruz shill Rush Limbaugh as well so why drag them through your Cruz slime.

Here's the distinction us little folk see. Trump spends every day at massive rallies he pays for, talking to the voters. Cruz sits in small rooms wooing over insiders who intend to jump ship and support Cruz as soon as they can.

It's just as bad with the dems. Sanders has massive rallies, paid for by the campaign donations from small donations. hillary raises money from deep pocket donors and gets the support of Super Delegates the voters have no control over.

It's across the political spectrum It has become painfully obvious that us little folk haven't had any control over the nominee for President, either party, for (at least) decades.

“My wife is liberal”

Horrors. According to Trumpets you cannot possibly be a reliable conservative. Next thing you tell us will be that your wife worked for Goldman Sachs.

Personally, I find it absurd to think that a wife’s employment would impact a man who has had a long career as a consistent conservative - the kind that this fR forum used to champion.

Any human with an IQ over 99 could listen to Cruz today and tell he’s a lying, cheating, sneaky, weaselly corrupt lawyer politician. It was like lying to your parents when you were little—they could tell when you were lying. Well, honest NORMAL people can tell Cruz is BUILT on a lie. That’s his foundation.

Nice list, some big problems. I outlined the first 3. There is very little accurate information on this entire list and much that is factually wrong and much that is misleading since the positions attributed to Cruz are Trump’s positions that Cruz adopted after Trump popularized them.

Cruz was against the wall until he saw that the wall was working for Trump then he got on board.

Same deal with anchor babies, some nice videos exist with Ted saying that anchor babies are not an important issue and it would be a mistake to address the issue and a year later saying that he was always against them.

Ted Cruz’s solution to illegal aliens: self-deportation
By Ed Straker http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2015/12/ted_cruzs_solution_to_illegal_aliens_selfdeportation_comments.html
For months Ted Cruz has refused to call for deportation of illegal aliens. He has called for securing the border but has refused to talk about what to do with illegals already here, saying he would not address that issue until the border is secured.

In that regard, Cruz was all over the map

You can cling to that fallacy if it helps you. But it's a lie.

KELLY: Did you know what Ted Cruz’s politics were at the time?

DERSHOWITZ: His politics were clear, principled, unwavering, and very intelligently presented.

KELLY: You said he was one of the smartest students you ever had. Is that true or is that hyperbole?

DERSHOWITZ: No, it’s true, and in fact I got a lot of criticism from my friends on the left saying, “Why are you saying that?” I’m a professor. I have to tell the truth about my students even if I disagree with their views. Even if I’m not gonna vote for him, I’m not gonna change history.

I like you. You work really hard to never let anyone know who you support. You are the stealth poster. I like that.

What Hannity can’t understand is a candidate who is so full of himself he can’t see he’s self destructing. Cruz has zero insight into himself.

prove it.

There are media watchers out there who keep track of such things.

If that were truly the case, you would be able to post some numbers to verify.

I haven’t watched FOX since Katrina and only recently started to catch some of Hannitys radio show since my normal station at that time slot has gone full #neverTrump

I hate Ted, am conservative and realized Ted is one hateful person that will sink like a rock against Hillary. He wifi destroy the down ticket and the GOP will try blame conservatism for Ted being a loser.

If Ted gets selected he and the GOP go down in flames together. If we get Hillary at least we get to watch the apparatus that failed burn politically.
