Cruz’s own operative tweeted out he had PERSONALLY received info from a Carson “insider” that Carson was out. Wasn’t CNN that said that.
ROTFLMAO!
Shirley you Jest?
This Trumpertantrum Has nothing at all to do with the tweets or the info. It is all about Donnie being a Soreloserman.

Wow! that link says that Cruz and Rubio committed a Class D felony.
Of all the candidates on the ballot, there was only ONE campaign that mis-reported the info (after their inside guy had tweeted his personal knowledge),,blamed CNN and also lied to voters that Carson was “out” and tried to get them to switch their votes.
Interesting that no other campaign cheated like that.
Cruz is blaming a you tube video......
Typical gibberish from a lawyer. He knows exactly what the media reported - and NOT ONE WORD of it stated Carson was “quitting” or “suspending” his campaign
The only way any listener could conclude that the CNN report was a statement of Carson’s dropping out of the race would be if that was the narrative they wanted to believe.
The excuses that Senator Cruz now offers as his explanation simply do not jibe with the actual on-air statements made by CNN reporters. Senator Cruz is caught in a lie, and he’s now desperately trying to spin his way out of the web he has weaved, rather than fire the individuals responsible and surrender a couple of his delegates to Carson.
Moreover, Rep Peter King - a Cruz operative - went on Twitter, and started a rumor storm that Carson was quitting the race.
Further, there was a TWO HOUR interval between the initial media report and the start of voting, during which time the Cruz campaign staff could have checked to be certain of their facts before sending out the e-mail, about Carson quitting, to all their precinct captains.
This whole thing stinks - and Senator Cruz is attempting to muddy the waters with his lawyerese BS.
The issue is not going away - no matter how often Ted Cruz runs his “I’m innocent” narrative. He screwed up, and he is now only making the situation worse.
GOOD JOB Judy THANKS for getting this toTrump, did you also get it to Carson???
It wasn’t BASED on a media report. Cruz’s own operative DanPGabriel was tweeting he himself had “inside” info that Carson was out.
Cruz is trying to blame CNN. Plus CNN in no way indicated Carson was OUT. Cruz told his captains to start telling voters to caucus for another candidate because Carson was “out”
The only crew saying Carson was “out” was the Cruz crew. Not CNN. Carson’s own wife heard Cruz’s camp do it, in person.
Wow! that link says that Cruz and Rubio committed a Class D felony.
*********************************************
Well, good luck with that.
Good grief.
If I knew how to paste the tweet I would do it.
Cruz’s operative DanPGabriel tweeted that he personally was told by a Carson “insider” that Carson was OUT! He didn’t say he heard it on CNN. He claimed personal knowledge. Had nothing to do with CNN.
WATCH the link on post #50 ALL of the tweets are posted clearly in the video!!!!
Well looks like George Soros is connected to Cruz’s staff Dan Gabriel. If this is the case, then Ted must remove Dan from his campaign staff if he does not then that in itself is very telling.
Well the FEC is now telling Cruz they want more info on that “Ooops” lack of loan disclosure. He needs to respond by March 8.
Exactly what did Team Cruz tweet?
Did they say in the tweet that Carson was quitting or suspending his campaign?
Or was it essentially a repeat of what CNN originally tweeted earlier in the afternoon?
The one who made the wrong tweet message was Congressman Steve King. This was what he tweeted:
“Carson looks like he is out. Iowans need to know before they vote. Most will go to Cruz, I hope.”
I don’t know where King got that impression but it might be from the original CNN tweet ( which never mentioned anything about quitting ).
Is it your contention that Cruz and King were in cahoots?
The “fish” stinks from the head. So now you Cruzers are saying that it’s really not Ted’s fault, but rather just some staffer. Kinda like Hillary and the e-mail scandal. Huma did it!
“Why doesnât he put his money where his mouth is?”
So far I believe there have already been a couple lawsuits filed on that topic. Why bring a third one?
Find the tweet from DanPGabriel. He is the Cruz operative that tweeted he had personally heard from a Carson “insider” that Carson was out.
RE: 33 seconds before the Iowa Caucus start at 7pm, CNN reports the story.
a couple seconds before 7pm TedCruz campaign tweets BenCarson is returning to Florida and making big announcement next week.

So, team Cruz essentially picked up the original tweet from CNN.
And what was the “big announcement”? There’s nothing in the Team Cruz tweet that tells us Carson is quitting.
RE: So far I believe there have already been a couple lawsuits filed on that topic.
Yep, and the Illinois lawsuit was ruled in favor of Cruz by their Board of Elections.
Where are the others?
RE: Cruz’s operative DanPGabriel tweeted that he personally was told by a Carson “insider” that Carson was OUT!
Could you show us the tweet please?
