Man Trump just set himself up for the fall... Like a drop in today’s electronic music. You feel it before it hits... Cruz just cruzified Trump.
Kootchie kootchie! LOL!
Ted is beyond disgusting constantly divining exactly what Trump will do as president. That’s become a major, but absurd campaign tactic of his recently. He sounds ridiculous to anyone listening closely.
If you are taking flak you are over the target
Put a fork in Cruz. Problem with his campaign, his speeches are good but when you talk in those verbal absolutes then the record shows you even a bit wrong, your credibility goes out the window as a canidate
That was a kill shot from Trump.
A RINO for supporting the most principled, conservative candidate? A RINO for supporting FR founder Jim Robinson’s favorite candidate?
He was being smarmy
Hewitt was a big Romney fan..
he wrote a book A Mormon in the White House...
He cant control Trump...
Rigged special interest audience has a high-pitched screamer for Rubio; her mom probably screamed at The Beatles.
Seems you were right. He went off the deep end after hanging around Glenn Beck and begging The Club For Growth for money. He started to sound like a Beck radio show. Then he began to unravel. I for one can’t trust him. Half the time he is trying to upstage Trump. The other half attacking Trump. Have the time saying he likes Trump The rest he is calling Trump a clown. He lost some marbles. Sad to see. All his flip flops then emerged. He is always contradicting himself now.
Trump tries to be respectful towards Cruz. Cruz responds by attacking.
As a change of pace, they go to Rubio, who continues to attack Trump.
I’m gonna report you to the principal. Don’t say CRam it because you don’t like a post.
That’s because he’s labeled an “Outsider” (as is most of the American people.)
Roberts got compromised somehow. Closet case I hear. But more likely it was over his adopted kids. Some legal issue there and they threatened to take them. He was blackmailed.
Cruz trumps everyone else. The fact that he is not defending the mountaintop is truly astonishing.
Did you hear the Telemundo woman mention that Trump had previously praised Telemundo?
Why wouldn’t Trump trust a network he praised?
Cruz is above all these RINOS
Cruz was over the top in support of John Roberts - direct quotes from memo to his staff:
Cruz went on to call Roberts “one of the very best advocates ever,†who exemplified “how to try to carry out our craft with the highest level of skill and integrity.â€
In that same message, dated Sept. 13, 2005, Cruz called Roberts “the best Supreme Court litigator in the nation.â€
“You weren’t listening.
Please tell what I missed. All I heard was Trump reiterating he’d make Mexico pay for the way, but not saying how he would get them to pay for it. He mention we have a big trade deficit with Mexico. Was he saying he would tell Mexico to pay for it or we won’t trade with them anymore?
After tonight, how can a conservative consider Trump? It confounds me. I was leaning his direction. He just exposed himself as a faker.
