02/28/16

You heard it hear first. Hopefully Drudge will pick it up in less than 24 hours.

Repeat... Roger Stone said Cruz via Attorneys told Rubio he will drop out for SCOTUS (Supreme Court of the U.S.) Appointment

I have no links, and I guess we will see if it rolls out in the news.

Fed Grand Jury meeting in secret to indict Hillary.... have it on REAL good authority. Don’t need trump to beat bernie, or even Biden, who’s saying his rosary today.

You say a Libertarian Trump adviser says that Ted Cruz will drop out of the Presidential race in exchange for a promise to nominate him to the Supreme Court?

What nonsense. Who would believe such a promise, from either Rubio or Trump?

Well, Cruz has not made many friends in the Senate that would have to vote to confirm him.

Where is the link, video, quotes?

Are we down to rumors now?

Cruz would more likely be being making a deal with Trump than the Cabana-Boi.

Trump is the presumed nomination, your rumor makes zero sense.

Unless Democrats are voting for Rubio in open Primaries, Cruz will stay ahead of Rubio.

>>No way.<<

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

My BS alarm is clanging loudly.

There are many reasons to dismiss this rumor as false; but, one that I find sufficient is Cruz is far too smart to think Rubio’s kamikaze attack is going to land him the nomination.

The irony is that even if Rubio were to manage to diminish Trump (which I doubt), the votes would go to Cruz, not Rubio. You can bank on that.

Cui bono on this BS? I do not think the perp is Stone or Trump. It is not Trump’s style at all.

Although I’d like to see Cruz on the court, I note that Trump has called him a liar on several occasions. It would be awkward (I think) to name a “liar” to the court.
Trump has never been consistent about anything, so why would he start now?

Because they were getting along so well for a while.

Seriously, Alex Jones, Mr. Tinfoil Hat himself.

There is a reason InfoWars post aren't allowed, or at least at one time Alex Jones post were banned.

Roger Stone is very “Nixonian” he is playing “Unaffiliated Attack Dog” for Trump, not officially part of the campaign, and thusly able to say anything with minimal consequences...

Be it good or bad, i am not sure, but he is very Nixonian, because I think he worked for him as some point....

He was solicitor general of Texas. Historically there have been many SCOTUS justices with no judicial experience.

Times have changed, Trump has now said Rubio is the Biggest Liar of them all.

...after taking fire from Rubio in Thursday's Houston debate.

Notice a pattern?
