Cruz Exposes Trump ObamaCare Lies
American Thinker ^ | February 27, 2016 | Daniel John Sobieski

One of the most amazing abilities Donald Trump has is being able to lie about his own record and get away with it.

-snip-

Republican presidential contender Ted Cruz cross-examined 2016 rival Donald Trump on Thursday's GOP debate stage,

-snip-

"True or false: you said the government should pay for everyone's health care?" Cruz asked Trump.

"That's false," Trump flatly said.

"You've never said that?" Cruz asked, seemingly surprised by the denial.

"I said it worked in a couple countries," Trump quipped.

"But you never stood on this debate stage and said, 'It worked great in Canada and Scotland, we should do it here'?" Cruz pressed.

"No, I did not," Trump replied

The fact is, as Trump told CBS' Scott Pelley in a "60 Minutes" interview, while claiming he would repeal ObamaCare and replace it with - wait for it, government-paid universal health care:

Scott Pelley: Universal health care?

Donald Trump: I am going to take care of everybody. I don't care if it costs me votes or not. Everybody's going to be taken care of much better than they're taken care of now.

Scott Pelley: The uninsured person is going to be taken care of how?

Donald Trump: They're going to be taken care of. I would make a deal with existing hospitals to take care of people. And, you know what, if this is probably--

Scott Pelley: Make a deal? Who pays for it?

Donald Trump: --the government's gonna pay for it....

-snip-

During the first GOP debate, moderator Bret Baier said to Donald Trump, "15 years ago, you called yourself a liberal on health care. You were for a single-payer system, a Canadian-style system."

"As far as single payer, it works in Canada," Trump replied. "It works incredibly well in Scotland...

And Cruz has presented a quote that proves exactly the opposite of what Cruz has claimed. Are you, too, serving Satan? How about rebuking Satan for a change? His lies are so petty and little.

I would attribute it to demon swarming and trolling.

No longer are we content to say that Person X is right about Y but wrong about Z. We have to have wholesale damnation or idolatry taking place.

It’s spiritual.

"WHY did Donald Trump get more evangelical votes in South Carolina than Ted Cruz?"

"WHY did Donald Trump win all but 3 counties (the other 3 going to Rubio) and Ted Cruz won NONE?"

Because people are just voting out of anger at the government and not using their brains (that is if they have any).

I fear the majority are living in WATERS WORLD.

If government is wallowing in PC lies and someone comes along and skewers them, wouldn’t that look appealing?

Trump is the ultimate fascist bully. He has the will to punish his enemies, and he has the money to sue them into submission. With the power of the presidency, he would have the power to imprison them (or worse), as well.

Electing Trump would be an even bigger mistake and disaster than electing Obama has been. Most Americans see and realize this already, hence Trump’s 60-70% negative favorability rating. Which is why he will never win in the GE, yet another reason for his negative favorability score.

I don’t know if the rabid fans of his here are paid operatives or just blindly following zealots, but one thing’s for sure. A Trump presidency would be the end of America as we know it...just as bad (if not worse) than Obama’s reign has been...and just as bad as a Hillary presidency would be.

I always know when some one has lost the argument....they tell you Satan has control over you....might try explaining that to you Trumper buddy at Post #76 who say’s it’s those evil Bible thumpers fault.

Yeah, and what's really hilarious....is when the very same posters go on and on bitching about Ted Cruz using his Christianity ("religiosity") for political gain...even while doing the Bible-Thump-Dance themselves. Stunning hypocrisy on display.

No, sorry. The old man Trump’s wealth was only estimated at between $250-300 million at the time of his death. With four surviving children, do the math. The best guess/consensus is that Trump got about $35 million. Not a mere “one million” as he claimed in the most recent debate.

My question is.....what doesn’t Trump lie about? (same question I’ve had re: Obama and Hillary and most of the same Democrats that Trump has donated to).

That would be the short list.

Trump may be “under legal advisement not to release them” from his attorney.

Not IRS........IRS would allow them to be released while being audited.
