Greta Van Susteren went off on the Cruz Campaign tonight over their handling of the Ben Carson Caucus scandal.
On Monday Dr. Ben Carson accused the Cruz camp of foul play in the Iowa Caucuses.
Carson said the Cruz camp told voters Carson was dropping out and to support Ted Cruz.
Carson was right to be outraged...
The Cruz camp sent out messages and made calls to all precinct captains that Dr. Carson was dropping from the race.
On Thursday Greta Van Susteren reacted to the Cruz campaign scandal.
Greta Van Susteren: Horrible!... This is appalling!
For some reason to me, what happened that night was terrible. But then when they have time for reflection they make it even worse with this statement tonight. It's just appalling.
Karl Rove: They're circling the wagons. They know they made a big error. They're trying to change the subject and they're circling the wagons.
Greta Van Susteren: Then don't tell me that Senator Cruz apologized! Because all he does is try to make Carson wrong in this whole statement and Carson didn't do anything wrong. It's just completely ridiculous to say Senator Cruz apologized. They got caught. Now they got double caught. This is horrible and shame on the Cruz campaign!
You’re not supposed to point out holes in their explanation.
Cruz didn’t feel threatened by Carson. He was threatened by the polls and the entrance polls in particular. All the talking heads were saying it was a Trump win, there was no doubt.
Cruz also had internals showing Carson was going to outperform in Iowa. Thus when this chance came up to grab those votes he went for it.
It’s not complicated.
I believe Beavers are Canada’s national symbol of something but I do not know much about Canada. I bet Cruz would know!
Riiiiigggghhhhtttt.
Exactly.
Now for the extended Ted version:
“Oh, hello Mr. Cleaver! I see that your wife got a new dress - from that new guy next door. He said you lost your job, and he was just trying to help out. I thought you should know. Have a nice day.”
I agree with you
Americans don’t care about the law. We’re talking about the putrid fumes coming off his morals and ethics while he played for the religious in the audience.
The whole country was watching Cruz’s 3rd rate political con-job.
Too true. He looks hypocritical as hell right now. He's about to brand himself as a phoney baloney tent revivialist, looking to con the masses for money and power. Once that happens, he's done.
You're welcome, Jane. I can't stand lies and misrepresentations, no matter who's doing it. If I catch my candidate in a lie, I'll be the first one to admit it, and complain about it.
Wish some Cruz supporters were more honest with themselves and others about the candidates. I'm perfectly willing to admit that Trump has warts. Why can't they admit the same about Ted?
Is that all you got?
I’m laughing at you - and your man, Cruz. He really took a slice out of his “Christian” ethics ... I doubt even surgery could reattach them.
Dumb blond moment?
Hey did the idiotic Greta go off on Trump when he compared Ben Carson to a child molester? Nope. Cause she needs Trump on her program for ratings. What a hypocrite!
Why bring Karl Rove over and spew out garbage? Even ABC had the decency to bring Ted Cruz over and let him defend himself, which he did splendidly by the way.
I am not to sure of Trump or Cruz beating Sanders. I think if Sanders wins his primaries and Trump or Cruz wins their primary, America will just give up and get it over with.
A Trump / Clinton match up could be epic in entertainment value.
Thanks! I’ve been getting my a$$ kicked 24/7 around here, nice to get a kind remark. :-)
You’re welcome! :-)
Forget it ... They held her head under those baptismal waters just a tad bit too long.
That was a really stupid response. You’ve got zip.
Why don’t you tell me about Cruz’s election morals and ethics? The first primary and he pulls this 3rd rate election BS at the expense of other candidates?
