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.”

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.
Hannity got rolled by the dirty teddy. He needed to force the wrecked cruzer to answer up the tough questions but dirty ted ducked everyone. bad interview.
Honor is never offensive & its always in style unlike conniving.
Hannity gets schooled by a corrupt canidate.
There fixed it for you.
I wasn’t advocating for Cruz (he certainly doesn’t need my help), I was simply pointing out the servile relationship to Trump now “enjoyed” by Hannity & Christie.
I fear it is in the eyes of the beholder. You have a revulsion to Trump that colors your analysis.
Christie is a mixed bag at the best of times some greatness, much expediency and GOPe squishiness. I live in NJ and I was pleased to see him stand with Trump. Its best we keep him in NJ since he is probably the most conservative Gov we can hope to elect at this point.
Of course you weren’t, how silly of me.
Let me tell you how bad it was. It was run by a gaggle of women who were saying what a wonderful woman Cindy McCain is, and they were insulting Sara Palin! Now, how is someone like me gonna’ crack that code?
The H1B limit was reached in 5 days this federal fiscal year.
I think we can all safely say at this point the Cruz as VP ship has likely sailed. Ted Cruz appears to have a self destructive streak. He should already have cut himself a deal but he is so full of himself he does not seem to be facing reality. He’s not going tone the nominee.
Cruz went out there and wooed delegates. Trump could have done the same. Ditto Wyoming and North Dakota. It is no secret that this was how those delegates were going to be selected, Hell, I posted my gripe about North Dakota not having a caucus this year several weeks ago, right here on FR.
Trump didn't go for it. He didn't put out the effort to connect with the people here, in WY, or CO. Maybe he's disappointed they didn't just fall on their faces and grovel up to kiss the hem of his garments, but it didn't happen. Apparently his supporters were not paying attention to the process either. That should not have been a surprise if they had, and they should have had a ground game in place. When it didn't happen, he claimed that it wasn't worth the effort (sour grapes anyone?) and blamed Cruz for rules he didn't make, he just played along with.
Trump has no one to blame but himself.
The more I see Trump smear his opponent for his own failings, the more I am sure I'd rather not have him in the White House.
Cruz went down to the border to highlight the damage that Obama's Dreamers Amnesty was doing and to highlight his bill to stop Obama's amnesty.
You really need to do your homework.
Colorado Republicans cancel presidential vote at 2016 caucus
Move makes Colorado only state to date to opt out of early nomination process
By John Frank
The Denver Post
Colorado will not vote for a Republican candidate for president at its 2016 caucus after party leaders approved a little-noticed shift that may diminish the state’s clout in the most open nomination contest in the modern era.

3 days ago - Wyoming does not hold a primary vote. Instead, 475 party activists convened in Casper on Saturday to hold a state convention and award 14 .
The GOP executive committee has voted to cancel the traditional presidential preference poll after the national party changed its rules to require a state’s delegates to support the candidate who wins the caucus vote.
Actually his quote is more along the lines of, “I will lose the primary and win the general election”.
If that’s true, so what?
My point is that the so called principled one changed his position on it as he has with lots of issues.
And he has.
You must have missed that last 8 minutes when Cruz spoke nonstop without interruptions. All talking points no content, no interruption. A jawdroppingly tone deaf monologue.
Only because you disagree with him.
You have a lovely evening.
Are they insults when they are true? Inquiring minds want to know.
The opportunity? Yes if one went to precinct, county, district and state. Most people do not have the time or money for that type of activity. The have work, children, church activities etc. Cruz is winning delegates but losing the support of the people. Go the breakfast at the same local place almost every day,. Cruz had a majority of support last fall. He kept about half of it through the primary here in Georgia. Since Colorado it started declining rapidly. A local delegate well respected was screwed at district by Cruz operatives this weekend. Some of the Cruz delegates apologized yesterday morning and it was clear this morning he only has about twenty percent support now. It is not just winning that counts but how one wins matters especially to people with morals and ethics. It is clear Cruz has neither of those.
The circus has changed a lot of things. That's what happens when a narcissistic performer demands center stage.
