Donald Trump was so unhappy about the Cruz Campaign’s “Supreme Trust” ad that he sent a “cease and desist” letter demanding that the Cruz campaign immediately stop running the ad featuring Trump currently running in South Carolina. During an epic press conference Sen. Ted Cruz rejected Trump’s frivolous demands. In its response the Cruz campaign said the ad is not an attempt to mislead the public:
The objective of the ad is precisely the opposite â to provide the voters of South Carolina with important and accurate information so that they can make an informed decision when they go to the polls.
The Cruz response goes on to say that every statement in the ad concerning Mr. Trump's pro-abortion views comes from Mr. Trump's own mouth. According to the Cruz campaign, the point of the ad is that they do not believe Mr. Trump's recent campaign claim that he is pro-life and the voters should not believe Mr. Trump either:
“Mr. Trump's implausible claim that he is pro-life doesn't meet a reality test,” said Rick Tyler, a campaign spokesman. “His words and actions simply cannot be reconciled. Mr. Trump last week said that Planned Parenthood does do wonderful things, but supporting Planned Parenthood is incompatible with holding the pro-life position Mr. Trump is now claiming.”
It’s good to see Cruz to respond to the Donald’s constant threats to sue.
If Trump didn’t care for “Supreme Trust” ad, he will have another melt down like those he had during the CBS South Carolina Republican Debate over the “Donald’s Choice” ad released Wednesday by the Cruz-supporting Courageous Conservatives PAC. The ad goes on to reference three names Trump has floated as possible replacements for Justice Scalia. Watch the ad:
Justice Scalia's death reminds us the next President will pick as many as four Supreme Court Justices and hundreds of other federal judges.
Just who would Donald Trump pick?
One person Trump suggested took Roy Moore off the Alabama Supreme Court for displaying the Ten Commandments.
Another forced Indiana to fund Planned Parenthood.
And one more who threw out New Jersey's Partial Birth Abortion Ban.
Everything is on the line now: our rights.
Our freedoms. Our America. And the courts are the battleground.
So who do you trust? Who do you trust to fill our federal courts?
Donald Trump with his New York values?
Or Ted Cruz, who won cases before the Supreme Court protecting gun rights, religious freedom and against the World Court.
Saturday's our last chance South Carolina!
Don't blow it.
Ted Cruz. For President.
Let's take our country back. Now. Before It's Too Late.
The three judges are Alabama's former Attorney General Bill Pryor, who in 2003 backed a decision to oust Chief Justice Roy Moore from his position for refusing to follow a federal court order that he remove a monument of the Ten Commandments from the front of the state's judicial building. Seventh Circuit Judge Diane Sykes, who authored an opinion striking down an Indiana law that would have defunded Planned Parenthood, and Trump's older sister, Maryanne Trump Barry, who in her first year as an appellate judge for the Third Circuit wrote a decision that overturned a New Jersey law banning late-term abortions.
Debating Trump supporters is like shooting fish in a barrel
Ted Cruz, Most Hated Man In Washington
Read it and weep
Funny..not sure those are facts or an endorsement.... A liberal rag magazine article...
This fish in the barrel found this nugget or turd in the referenced article:
“In some ways, Cruz is a consummate insider. A graduate of both Princeton University and Harvard Law Schoolâ, he ââhas worked for all three branches of the federal government: Before his election to Congress, he clerked for a federal judge and then Supreme Court Chief Justice William Rehnquist. He also served in the Department of Justice and with the Federal Trade Commission under President George W. Bush.”
Not a leader... just an insider... I’ll take your endorsement reference with a grain of salt and since its lunch time i will add, a Pan con lechón, a Cuban favorite, I am sure Rafael would approve.. cheers and don’t rage to hard you might get hurt.
Trump abandoned Scotland where he built “the greatest golf course in the world” after losing an eminent domain battle with locals and losing another court case PLUS losing money on it for 3 years in a row...
Didn’t make news here but the Scot redneck would not be budged and was given an award for his perseverance.

Trump had the homes within view of his “greatest golf course in the world” blocked with trees and piles of dirt. Now those who have lived there for 40 years cannot see the “preservation” dunes and ocean.

Susan, 59, has been penned in too - with a 10ft mound of earth with trees on top blocking her once-expansive view.

What does he do later? He sues the Scottish government when they want to put up windmills within view from the course because it would take away from the pleasure of the view from his course.
“He alleged in the judicial review that his own human rights had been breached, because the windfarm, which is funded by the European commission and supported by many local organisations which had also backed Trump’s golf resort, interfered with his “peaceful enjoyment of his property”.”

No one dared say anything negative before his campaign, but word needs to get out that he can no longer sue for saying negatives...
1983...Nothing has changed much...
“His alternating skills of charming some individuals and riding roughshod over others has earned Donald Trump a reputation in some quarters as someone not to be trusted. He reneged, for example, on a promise to donate to a museum the Art Deco bas- reliefs on the facade of Bonwit Teller’TMs - bulldozed to make way for Trump Tower. It was a sin deemed unforgivable by landmark preservationists. But the only negative comments about Donald Trump these days are given off the record. [WHY - I wonder?]”

why? might have something to do with lawyers but just wait. Sidney Powell wrote a book about the corruption in our justice system. Wait until suing is fun Trump gets to head the DOJ.
