Nevada: Ted Cruz's Launches Lightning Tour [Protester will back Sanders or Trump]

PAHRUMP, Nevada - Sen. Ted Cruz was heckled during a local "meet and greet" Sunday, the first of ten events in Cruz's lightning 3-day tour of the Silver State. The incident turned violent with both the heckler and a Cruz supporter getting into a physical altercation and being escorted away from the scene by police officers.

Registered Democrat Craig Bohanon, 50, shouted from the audience as Cruz spoke from a Ford pickup truck bed which was made into a stage. Mostly unintelligible, Bohanon called Cruz a liar, defended Obamacare, and called for repealing the 16th Amendment.

Cruz supporter, Don, 66, allegedly grabbed Bohanon by his neck in order to silence him.

"He was screaming in my ear and I couldn't hear anything," he told Breitbart News. "He was saying that Obamacare is something done by Congress and not by Obama. I'm just here to see Ted Cruz."

........Bohanon said he would like to see either Bernie Sanders or Donald Trump win the presidency. "Otherwise we are stuck. We are stagnant. We need somebody who can really go in there and work to make a change. Whether the change is better or worse? We need to change so we can get out of stagnation."......

LOL.

Quite an interesting read - pretty much says it all.

It pretty much says a crazy protester said crazy things and got into a fight.

But you true believers will never give up. So carry on and enjoy your fun. :)

Hilarious!!!

Keep slinging the anti-Trump mud, CW. It’s working so well for ya! /s

Fast paced Monday for Cruz while Beck and his ferrets fast.

Lil Canadian Cruziie is also participating in the fasting.

I like the ‘lightening’ part the best. Wonder, will Cruz zap the heathen in the strip joints? Or maybe slip in the back door and pick up some cash from the billionaire casino owners?

“We are stagnant. We need somebody who can really go in there and work to make a change. Whether the change is better or worse? We need to change so we can get out of stagnation.”

Can't really argue with that.

I’m Donald Trump and I approved this message.

Trump/Sanders 2016 - What difference does it make.

Another Caucus state;

30 total delegates - 10 base at-large / 12 re: 4 congressional districts / 3 party / 5 bonus

Amusing how the man wants either Bernie or trump.... Odd really

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Like the Trump-Sanders supporter at the Cruz rally said, he’s not afraid of socialism.

Oh, and the protester is a liar - first he said he was there to listen to Cruz and that he didn’t support anyone and then he fessed up - Trump or Sanders, both had his backing.

Cruz did not win a single county in red red SC. Explain how he wins in Nevada? SEC? He needs delegates.

Well, you know what they say: you can lead a Trump supporter to important facts and information, but you (unfortunately) can't make him/her think.

No, it's not odd. Both Trump and Sanders are Big Government, subsidies, untouchable entitlement guys.

[MayflowerMadam]

Cruz hasn’t kicked Beck to the curb yet? Cool.

[wbarmy]

defended Obamacare, and called for repealing the 16th Amendment

That kind of political stance is a tad schizophrenic if you ask me. How will you pay for the Obamacare if you don't have the 16th Amendment?

[5thGenTexan]

Red red Linsey Graham SC?

[Just mythoughts]

But Cruz is demanding the biggest entitlement of them all, all for himself.. Cruz is a natural born Canadian.
