Glenn Beck apologizes to Trump
Bizpac Review ^ | January 17, 2016 | Michael Dorstewitz

Posted on 01/17/2016 2:00:56 PM PST by Red Steel

Conservative radio host Glenn Beck apologized for claiming that Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump had voted for President Barack Obama in 2012 and 2016, saying he'd been duped by a fake tweet.

Beck was a guest on Fox News' "The O'Reilly Factor" last week, making a case for why he thinks "progressive" Trump would be as big of a "monster" as Barack Obama â€“ a case he's been making for many months.

Trump watched and responded to the show with a slew of unpleasant opinions about "dopey" Beck to a New Hampshire crowd.

When Trump denied ever having voted for the president Beck tweeted:

Why do you keep saying things like you didn't vote for @BarackObama ?… just admit it @realDonaldTrump pic.twitter.com/ZgL9OAOZck

He goes blind every few years or when he thinks his audience is deserting him.

Yes apparently parents’ fear of MS-13 was one reason so many unaccompanied minors came to the US last year. We must do more to help these countries improve their policing in these source countries. Here you can find out more about what these gangs do and how they are affecting things.

Cruz/Beck violated Federal election law as well as that of most states. Federal Prosecution of Election Offenses

(b) Fraudulent misrepresentation. 2 U.S.C. § 441h Section 441h prohibits fraudulently representing one's authority to speak for a federal candidate or political party. As a result of the 2002 Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act (BCRA), the provision contains two specific prohibitions:

Section 441h(a) forbids a federal candidate or an agent of a federal candidate from misrepresenting his or her authority to speak, write, or otherwise act for any other federal candidate or political party in a matter which is damaging to that other candidate or political party. For example, Section 441h(a) would prohibit an agent of federal candidate A from issuing a statement that was purportedly written by federal candidate B and which concerned a matter which was damaging to candidate B.

I don’t see how they enforce that.

Am I missing something. Explain what this means to you.

Not trying to be difficult. I just wonder if Im don’t fully understand it.

I know you're right that he doesn't have possess the internal mechanism to stop himself ... lol .. and Obama doesn't either. They're both Narcissistic, although Obama is also Antisocial.

Interesting. If I just read this paragraph on this (or any) page, I would assume it was about Trump. Turns out it isn't, but it would still be 100% accurate if it were.

The Lord does indeed work in mysterious ways. HE even said it specifically although I confess I don't know the exact verse, it goes something like this (in part): MY ways are not your ways. My thoughts are not your thoughts....

And you as well, onyx. It was, after all, your words I quoted. :)

The harder I try to figure out God’s will, the more a fool I make of myself. Since I try really hard in some ways, it happens all too often!

And then in other ways I never try hard enough.

An old saying that just rings so true: "Wanna make the Lord laugh? TELL HIM YOUR PLANS for YOUR Life!"

An old lady I knew once prayed to God — basically fussed at him like a bossy house wren. After several minutes she ‘heard’ a thought in her head, “Shut up, Irene, and let Me be God for a while!”
