Donald Trump shares bizarre image of a balding Ted Cruz
Business Insider ^ | January 21, 2016 | Colin Campbell

Posted on 01/21/2016 8:01:44 AM PST by Isara

Property magnate Donald Trump shared a strange Twitter image on Thursday in order to mock his top primary rival, Sen. Ted Cruz....

Trump, the Republican presidential front-runner, retweeted someone who had altered the cover of Cruz's book, "A Time for Truth," so that the Texas senator looked as if he were balding.

The altered book's title: "A Time To Lie."

Text beneath the title echoed a number of Trump's recent campaign-trail attacks against Cruz: "I am an untrustworthy person, I took loans from Wall Street and lied about it. I was in cahoots with Wall Street, also Trump was also right I am a Canadian Citizen and banker!"

Trump has previously shared bizarre tweets going after two other Republican candidates: former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) and retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson. The Carson post was blamed on a "young intern."

Here's the latest Trump tweet:

To play off of something Donald Trump himself said, “You know, when you think about it, Donald Trump has gone much harder after Ted Cruz than he did Jeb Bush.

You're kidding right?? Trump went after Bush and quickly relegated him to obscurity in the polls. Trump wants to win and he sees that Cruz is a threat. What should he do? Let Cruz win? Cruz has no qualms about going after Trump now that he saw he had a chance to win Iowa as well.

I hate to say it but Cruz cannot beat Hillary. We will have President Hillary if he is nominated. I like Cruz but we are in a dire situation right now.

Trumps grandfather ran a brothel, Donald owns Casino’s. The more things change the more they stay the same.

I told you Cruzers that you flipped Jim Robinson off when he asked for peace.

He asked that FReepers stop attacking each other. Which is in line with the ancient rule here "No personal attacks"

A personal attack is:

"You are an idiot / fool / zombie."

"You are wrong" or "I disagree" is not a personal attack.

Read his post again

"And FReepers, please quit attacking each other. We're all in this together."

From:

Times that try men's souls vs living in interesting times

Wow, all that for a one sentence snark. You take yourself entirely too serious, Finny.

He could mean that he didn’t think it was worth addressing because Cruz would never win the nomination but as Cruz is more of a contender the issue becomes more important, because of the dems’ ability to take out Cruz if he gets the R nomination.

And now with Cruz down in the polls I suppose he’d say that the issue recedes into the background again. And if it does, then my respect for both is lower, because I’ve been hoping the 2 would join together to use this issue as the means to expose the 2008 coup.

I could believe that they’d both like to expose the 2008 coup but are afraid of Obama setting off the EMP attack earlier if he feels confronted.... except if that was the reason to hold off on exposing the coup, they both ought to be doing something to PREVENT Obama’s scheduled EMP attack. Obama said in July of 2008 that he would be POTUS for “the next 8-10 years”. To those who were listening, he told us outright the timing of the attack we’ve all been anticipating. And Congress and the DoD stand by picking their noses after they’ve been told we’ve got a hole in our southern radar defense that puts us at risk of an EMP attack from Iran or North Korea. HOW can any of them justify ignoring that? Ignoring that is comparable to treason! Yet EVERYBODY in Congress is ignoring it!

These guys NEED to start talking about this.

I think if they asked me to donate I would ask, “Why should I believe that the election of 2016 will even result in a new POTUS being inaugurated, when Obama said in 2008 that he would be POTUS for “the next 8-10 years” and the EMP that he just made sure Iran has can easily get to us through a hole in our southern radar defense that Congress refuses to repair?”

Is there going to be another R debate sometime? Can somebody just ask the question outright?

Your post #125 is a MUST-READ.

As for this Trump Tweet-It's just silly-like something a little kid would do. But whatever- It's silly season.

BUMP for Post 125

Cruz does need an updated wardrobe, less uptight, less
greasy - a hairdo that is more natural and not so slicked
down. - Even George Washington had to struggle with the
powdered wigs and the wooden false teeth. In this day & age,
a little attention to a slight makeover would not be scoffed
at!

Childish, petulant, vindictive, narcissistic, Trump is not the one I won’t taking those 3 am phone calls, having his finger on the button or “making deals” with the GOP-e, democrats, UN, or foreign entities. I don’t believe or trust The Donald and he has done nothing in the past that would lead me to believe that he is either trustworthy or Conservative.

Ever notice how Trump’s attacks often focus on things he, himself has as issues?

Trump has budget issue, so he attacks Walker's state budget with disproved talking points (aka, lies) from the left.

Hmm, I think you have a point here.

You Cruzers should be courting my vote. :)

And here we are instead courting your conscience. Imagine that.

I don’t think LBJ had a thick head of hair. Gerald Ford was a little sparse, too, but he was never elected. And LBJ got the job through murder, although he was later elected. So the theory about the necessity of hair is valid. The percentage of men over 45 with full heads of hair is pretty low, not sure what it is. At 55 or 60, even lower. So to have all the Presidents with good hair is definitely a sign of something.

Funny that after he left office, LBJ grew out his hair.

Apparently, Trump and Obama have more in common than we thought.

They both ran or are running for office and they are both impure politicians as they are ALL impure and imperfect.

Hillary’s legal problems are bigger than anyone knows.

When it starts coming out it’s going to spill over to the GOPe.

The GOPe, the democrats and Hillary all need someone in the WH to orchestrate the cover up and that someone clearly isn’t Cruz.

Cruz will take them all down regardless if there is an R or D beside the name. It won’t make a difference to Cruz.
