Rep. Peter King Threatens to Jump Off a Bridge if Cruz Gets GOP Nomination

Rep. Peter King (R-NY) appeared on CNN’s The Situation Room Monday afternoon and when Wolf Blitzer asked him to explain his statement that compared Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) to a “carnival barker,” the Republican congressman opted not to walk back his comments but instead take about a dozen steps forward.

“We need intelligent debate in the country. Ted Cruz may be an intelligent person, but he doesn’t carry out an intelligent debate,” King said. “He oversimplifies, he exaggerates and he basically led the Republican Party over the cliff in the fall of 2013. He has shown no qualifications, no legislation being passed, doesn’t provide leadership and he has no real experience. So, to me, he is just a guy with a big mouth and no results.”

But would King support Cruz if he ended up becoming the Republican Party nominee for 2016?

“I hope that day never comes,” King told Blitzer. “I will jump off that bridge when we come to iy"

Conservatives all need to send him posters:

I am confused...

[EXCH54FE]

King told Blitzer. “I will jump off that bridge when we come to iy”

Please tell when you will do this act, so I can watch your Dumb Ass!!!

It’s Win-Win!

Has Ticketmaster started selling tickets?
Can I have the Beer and Hotdog concession?
If no, Can I have the Parking lot revenue?

I am not asking for a lot, just “enough to wet my beak”

[RaginRak]

I hope it’s on Youtube !!!
is there a tv show called “Stupid people doing stupid things” ??

[TangoLimaSierra]

A two-fer.

Jumping off a bridge could be a career ender.

Why doesn’t he just promise to move to Canada or out of the USA if Cruz is elected?

That’s what Eddie Vedder, Alec Baldwin, Barbara Streisand, Robert Altman and Pierre Salinger did.

Although they all turned out to be liars - not a one of them kept their promise.

Rep. Peter King is unhinged. His attacks are outrageous - reveal more about his mental state than about Cruz.

[Steven Tyler]

Going forward, to be known as “Wile E Coyote”

Has any DemocRAT ever carried-on like this about any DemocRAT candidate or nominee?

That's a great point. What a little douchebag this clown is.

He voted against all charges against Clinton in his impeachment trial by the way, so he's no newcomer to douchebaggery.

Hey Pete!

Can we select the bridge?

RINOs get points from the MSM for trashing true conservatives. It also gets them special treatment at cocktail parties attended by their lib supporters.

Anybody can jump off a bridge, Mr. King. You should strive to make your jump interesting. Make certain you haul a good, sturdy rope with you to the top of your 800' bridge, fasten one end to the top of the spire and form the other end into a noose and place securely around your worthless neck.

Then jump.

You'd earn some real respect that way.

RINO heads are a spinnin. :-)

JUMP Peter King, JUMP.

VOTE CRUZ and tell everyone you know to vote for Cruz!

[Amagi]

Wonderful.
