OK, I’ll bite. Cite the lie that Cruz told about his opponents.


Ted Cruz lied yesterday.

“The one person Donald has pointed to as a potential Supreme Court nominee is his sister,” Cruz told reporters here Monday, though Trump opened Saturday night’s debate by name-checking federal judges Bill Pryor and Diane Sykes.

Cruz was standing right next to Trump at the debate, when he was the only candidate to actually offer names for SC consideration. Ergo, Cruz is lying to voters and hoping they don’t know any better.

There’s also a second lie built into Cruz’s claim here. Trump was giving his sister a compliment, and immediately after joking about putting her on the SC, said “Let’s just rule that out now.”

About the second lie here, most Cruz supporters will say “yeah right, he wasn’t joking!” at the second part, because they are joyless wannabe lawyers, and emulate their candidate.

But the lie Cruz told yesterday saying “THE ONE PERSON” is inescapable and cannot be spun. It’s an outright, intentional, plain-as-day attempt to mislead voters with false information.

That’s what you’re going with? Really? Did he suggest his sister or not? And your quote is also misleading. Trump said, “rule it out now, AT LEAST”

So by your own standard are you a lying scumbag? You didn’t give a full and complete quote, even though you cited part of the quote accurately. Yours was also “an outright, intentional, plain-as-day attempt to mislead FReepers with false information.
