WATCH: Trump Falsely Tells Voters Cruz Left Nevada Before Caucus
Conservative Review ^ | February 23, 2016

Posted on 02/24/2016 5:00:29 AM PST by justlittleoleme

This afternoon in Sparks Nevada. Donald Trump told voters that all the candidates had left the State of Nevada in the morning, and were unworthy of their support. Here is Trump saying it:

It is true that Marco Rubio and John Kasich are not in Nevada for the running of the caucuses. Rubio is in Michigan, and Kasich was in Georgia. But there's a problem for Trump. Trump strongly reacted to the Cruz campaign using a media report in the Iowa Caucuses against Ben Carson, calling Cruz's victory a fraud.

This time it was Trump himself saying that Cruz had left the state and was not worthy of voters votes for doing so. Multiple tweets from reporters show Cruz in Nevada, speaking at caucuses.

An hour later as caucusing is well under way, Cruz is still in Nevada

Will Trump hold himself to his own standard?

Sadly I don't see that happening KansasGirl. It is heartbreaking but we are now the offspring of the DU here at Free Republic.

Okay have it your way.

His voters already accept he is a blowhard. Showing them again won’t change their votes.

That was not my point. The headline said: Trump said Cruz had left, etc., which, according to the latest generally accepted English usage, means that Trump called out Cruz’s name, which he did not.

You act as if Trump said Cruz had dropped out of the race.

“you continue to wiggle around”

wiggle around???

I would bet that you wiggled yourself into a pretzel trying to make excuses for Cruz’s direct lie (and contacted the entire state with the lie) that Carson had dropped out of the race and already gone home.

Pushing that, are you? No, Cruz didn’t lie. His people simply repeated a CNN story that had come out earlier in the day.

But you know that. And you prefer to push the malicious narrative that somehow Cruz lied.

You embrace a candidate who lies. You become like him, and you lie yourself. Really pathetic.

I hit a bullseye.

“And you prefer to push the malicious narrative that somehow Cruz lied.”

1. Find and release the report wherein CNN stated that Carson had dropped out of the race.

2. Find and release the report wherein all the other campaigns told the caucus voters that Carson had dropped out of the race, based on the CNN report.

3. Contact Mrs. Carson and tell her she should not believe her lying ears.

4. Contact Carson and tell him he should not believe his lying eyes.

Apparently, according to those that watched the video, he didn’t mention Cruz by name.

You want me to contact Mr. Carson — the man Trump called “pathological,” like a child molester? That Mr. Carson?

I have seen those about ten times. They DID NOT say Carson was dropping out.

Can you comprehend? They said not a word that Carson was dropping out of the race. In addition, the reporters were not official spokes people of the Carson campaign. They had no authority whatsoever. Their whole tone was one of speculation and non-understanding.

Do I need to repeat myself. The reporters DID NOT state that Carson was dropping out. No other campaign thought the reporters were saying that Carson was dropping out.

Common sense would suggest to anyone with a room temperature IQ that Carson is the one to go to in order to see if he were dropping.

Deceptive headline.

That's the douchebag Mark Levin (CR publisher) for ya. Last week he smeared Trump as some kind of Jew-hater, now it's yet another lie about him. Levin's ex-wife sure picked a good time to divorce his sorry ass.

I don’t know what you are talking about.

Trump said that Cruz was in the rural counties of Nevada, while he (Trump) was in Clark, in Las Vegas (implying he was in the middle of it), while Rubio had already left.

Trump has done nothing but lie for three months. He’ decided his campaign is not an effort to win followers but to destroy anyone who doesn’t agree with him on everything. He just repeats a series of lies or left-wing attacks on each conservative opponent. He did it to Walker, repeating BS about the Wisconsin economic recovery. He’s done it to Cruz. He’s starting on Rubio. He takes whatever attack has been used on a guy and cranks it up to 11. He attacked Jeb from the right. Cruz from the left. Same tactics in each case.

Trump followers are now in a pure Cult of Personality like Obama fans in 2008. Everyone else is a liar and facts be damned. It’s taken a frightening turn. I’m out.

You’re “out”? Well, then, don’t let the door hit you where the Good Lord split you.
