Glenn Beck endorses Cruz: Trump win is 'snowball to hell'
CNN ^ | January 23, 2016 | Ahiza Garcia and Theodore Schleifer

Posted on 01/23/2016 2:18:30 PM PST by McGruff

Beck officially endorsed presidential candidate Ted Cruz on Saturday while at a rally at Faith Bible College in Iowa.

"We need a new George Washington," Beck said at the rally. "Today's Washington will not be found in the garish light of gold, but rather, in the bold service of a man who stands tirelessly for what he deeply believes — that government should be of the people, by the people, and for the people."

"I have prayed for the next George Washington," Beck said of Cruz. "I believe I have found him."

“All candidate support aside, what the hell is Cruz smoking allowing this loon to be this prominent in his campaign?”

Attrition. Failure. Despair. That is a rough blend to smoke.

He is also not coming out well with the serious scrutiny that has only begun.

Well that’s it! It’s over. “Surging Ted” has the mental patient vote locked up or is that locked down?
Aren’t you Cruzers embarrassed by Beck’s endorsement?

Apologize for clashing with the TEA Party?

In 2011 Beck said that the TEA Party was a bunch of “racists” for supporting Gingrich over Romney.

In Sept 2015, Beck said that TEA Party members who support Trump are a bunch of “racists.”

It is Loonytune Beck who should be apologizing.

Also, it’s good to remember that in July 2014, Beck, Cruz and one of the sponsors of this event, went to the border to throw a welcome party to the invaders, handing out soccer balls, sweats and teddy bears.

Sen. Cruz orbits around Goldmann Sachs, Moonbeam Beck,
and kickstarted the first vote on SECRET ObamaTRADE.
And he got his freaky supporters to go after Gov. Palin
out of jealousy.

‘snowball to hell’

I don’t even know what that means.

Cruz = ok. Beck = disaster.

No, he doesn’t own any businesses. He’s a career politician.

Beck is going to betray Cruz one of these days, like he betray all his other friends and allies to promote himself

I doubt Trump has any particular rebuttal to any of this. He mocks Beck generally, then gets on to what Trump will do if he is president. Whether you believe he will or can get those things done is another matter, but he doesn’t obsess over being trash-talked. Sends some back, and that’s it.

CNN = COMMUNIST NEWS NETWORK

Trump, in 2013, endorsed communist Bill De Blasio for New York City mayor. He supports Obama's opening up to communist Cuba. He loves Putin. He, in his mid-50s, supported gays in the military AND partial birth abortion.

________________________________________

DONALD TRUMP [on Larry King Show (2009), referring to the then newly elected communist president]: "Well, I really like him. I think that he's working very hard. He's trying to rebuild our reputation throughout the world. I mean, we really have lost a lot of reputation in the world. The previous administration [GW Bush] was a total disaster, a total catastrophe."

And I'm not saying I agree with everything he's doing. I do agree with what they're doing with the banks. Whether they FUND THEM or NATIONALIZE them, it doesn't matter, but you have to keep the banks going."

Interesting, there had been some discussion about whether Beck would use the term endorse. The article doesn’t explicitly quote it although the headline does.

I’d LOL if the joke didn’t write itself.

Truth is, most seminaries have been taken over by liberals, too.

Cruz must know that Glenn’s style can get real corny and cringe-worthy at inappropriate moments.

He should have told him to keep it level and straight, and avoid the dramatics.
