‘The only person Cruz should blame is himself. If he’d had the balls to come our as forcefully against illegal immigration’

Say no more

Except ignore him. Why was the first question posed by Blondie so ridiculously in appropriate? Because they wanted to bait the bear.

Trump won in spite of Fox News’ near continuous attacks on him (as they touted Jeb, then Marco, and later Cruz). Even MSNBC and CNN were often fairer to Trump than Fox (although they all lobbed an unprecedented number of attacks and lies against Trump). Cruz needs to quit this scapegoating and his attempts to hurt Trump (i.e. help Hillary) and accept that the voters rejected him. It’s over. The new target is the Clinton machine and the Left.

The Huffington Post Editor’s note: Donald Trump regularly incites political violence and is a serial liar, rampant xenophobe, racist, misogynist and birther who has repeatedly pledged to ban all Muslims — 1.6 billion members of an entire religion — from entering the U.S.

Well, at least the HP isn’t covering Trump on its entertainment pages any more. ;-)

Trump has to win or he certainly is going to go away. The man is 70 years old. In fact the same can be said about all the candidates: Hillary is old and probably sick, and Bernie is 74. Amazing that we have three baby boomers to choose from.

Ted’s starting to actually believe the lunatic Beck! This is crazy; I don’t know how many times Trump was having a rally, so I looked on Fox to watch it, they didn’t have it, so I turned to MSNBS, and they had it, or CNN, and they had it; again, NOT Fox news. This happened time after time. For the longest time, Ailes and Kelly were in such a feud with Donald, I figured that was why the snub.

But to hear that Fox was in Trump’s crack is ludicrous.

I will give you that Fox Business, with Bartiromo, Varney, Dobbs, et al, there was a preponderance of Trump sentiment; but NOT Fox News, no f’n way!

You know, Ted, Santorum and the others in the prior two elections didn't launch these sorts of recriminations on others when they lost.

Stop playing the child.

I have no idea.

I had to look it up. It seems McCain was his primary rival, Forbes and Hatch were in there too, keyes, and Elizabeth Dole...and Kasich good grief! Guy never goes away either.

I believe Goldman Sachs gave Cruz a loan for around $1 million for money to be used in this campaign.

Gee, Ted, could it be the more people saw how slimy you were in your dealings the less they liked you?

Nah, that couldn’t be it at all.

Like I said, TC is Jeb Bush the Second.
