Cruz to O’Reilly: You ‘Defend’ Trump ‘A Lot’
Breitbart ^ | 4/8/16 | Ian Hanchett

Posted on 04/08/2016 2:29:12 AM PDT by markomalley

Republican presidential candidate Texas Senator Sen. Ted Cruz told Fox News Channel host Bill O’Reilly that he defends GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump “a lot” on Thursday’s “O’Reilly Factor.”

After Cruz pointed to Trump’s donations to liberal politicians, O’Reilly objected that these donations weren’t made “as a politician.” O’Reilly then advised Cruz to have a press conference in Penn Station to see what has happened to it under Mayor Bill de Blasio (D).

Later on, Cruz argued there’s “liberal intolerance” in New York state, and stated that New York State Senator Rubén Díaz (D) told him that he knew exactly what Cruz’s reference to “New York values” meant, and that Díaz pointed to New York Governor Andrew Cuomo’s (D) statement that “extreme conservatives who are right-to-life, pro-assault-weapon, anti-gay” “have no place in the state of New York, because that’s not who New Yorkers are.”

O’Reilly responded that “Trump doesn’t subscribe to any of that.” Cruz objected that Trump does because “he funded it.” O’Reilly again said that this was done “as a businessman.” And “You can have two lives.”

Why would you want Trump when you already have Obama. They are two of a kind. It’s all about them. Me me me me.

On of the more stupid comments I've read today.

Trump has everything, he has nothing to gain by taking on the hardest job in the world. He wants to give back to the country out of love of country. He is getting up in years he sees this as one last mission to help the country he loves.

Perhaps Trump could hire that “lady” as a spokesperson - I’m sure it would make all of his constituents proud (at this point.) It seems to, anyway.

I listen to FM talk radio (I don’t have sirius) when I’m doing certain chores. It plays in the background. Before this political season started, Beck didn’t bother me when it would be on because he was mostly bashing Obama and stuff I generally agreed with. But WOW, he has gone completely deep end off the rails over Cruz. There is something going on there between the two of them and Cruz supporters owe it to the rest of us to at least acknowledge that before they vote for him. They need to LISTEN to Beck. I can’t stomach it very long before I turn it off.

I have never listened to Savage.

“What deluded deranged worldview would that be ?....

A Republic based on the Constitution?”

That is part of his delusion you create in yourself. Like many cultists, he is able to bring many to his deranged thinking.

I have never listened to Savage.

He is on between 3-6 PM Eastern (you can stream if it isn't available locally). He and Alex Jones are both big Trump advertisers. So if you like Trump, you might enjoy listening to both.

Me, personally, I have such a low opinion of anybody in politics that I chafe at any candidate-worship, no matter which candidate.

Get your head out of the fog. Remember if Trump is elected, you will have your eyes opened by his sophmoric idiocy.

That’s only like the best piece written on the campaign in a year. Cruz supporters have become a cult adopting every leftist campaign tactic in the book. And they’re ready to get us 4 more lefty SCOTUS to ruin the republic when he loses worse than Romney. He has no support, he’s merely a vehicle for the #nevertrump elitists. Sad.

Your girl Cruz in 2012. Some oppo-research back in the day. A little hypocritical of that Ted there criticizing Trump over contributions as a businessman while he was a partner did the same at a law firm who paid off the Dems with some big money.

-snip-

"While Ted Cruz has, to date, capitalized on a blossoming legal career to cast himself as a fighter, which undoubtedly is true given his personal story, many are just now learning Cruz is a partner at a high-powered law firm with a history of contributing 100’s of $1,000’s of dollars to Democrats such as the Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and Democratic National Congressional Committee’s campaigns.

Ted Cruz was hired as a partner Morgan Lewis & Bockius in 2008, during the presidential election in which Barack Obama became president. Morgan Lewis & Bockius made contributions totaling over $200,000 in support of Obama’s campaigns for President, as well as $750,000 to Democrats since Cruz became a partner.
"


This is interesting too. It could be the Ted Cruz 2016 campaign just like 2012:

"By resorting to false, malicious & too-often self-serving attacks on their opponents, the Ted Cruz camp (and others too) diminishes their own credibility … amongst other leaders, the press, donors, and most importantly the voters of Texas at large. (If you believe what we have been hearing the past month or so, this is the just latest in a pattern of mis-steps by the Cruz Campaign.)"

On the talk radio station I listen to, it’s a really good local guy from 6-9am, Beck til noon, Rush til 3 and Hannity until 6 or 7 pm. It just depends on what I’m doing as to how much of any of them I hear but I generally hear enough.

Some of us have a problem with know-it-all ex pats.

And some of us have more to do than watch the annoying O’Reilly every night or when the equally annoying Cruz shows up to whine about Trump.

Cruz, grow up and tell New Yorkers how you will help bring jobs back and knock off doubling down on insults towards the city and state you don’t seem to know much about.

"There is not a single one of them who would not gladly throw his/her own mother under the bus in order to advance his/her career. "

Well, Mr. Trump refuses to fire Corey L. based on Michelle Fields crazy claims, even though the so-called "women" hate him for that.

I say Bravo, Mr. Trump!

If Trump only builds the wall and ends the invasion of 3rd worlders he will be one of our greatest presidents. Anything positive he does after that will be gravy.

Ted Cruz is an empty suit and his downfalll will be handed to him by the Republican/Conservative voters from the great state of New York in a week or so. The only thing he rambles on about is Trump...Trump.....Trump. Ted Cruz, the GOP establishment, the media, the pundits, the lobbyists, thought that Wisconsin was going to be “Waterloo” for Donald J. Trump.

Fact is: they failed miserably....Trump garnered almost 400,000 votes where he did not really have a good chance of victory (the whole world attacked him, relentlessly)...yet, he still won two congressional districts, most of the state counties, and got awarded six convention delegates to boot.

The massive win that Ted Cruz boasted about got him just thirty-three delegates. The Cruz wipeout by Trump is about to commence, folks. That is why you see & hear the media, etc. go back into their rat holes and shut up. They fired...and, missed!!!

Does Cruz ever talk about what he’d do to make America great?

Trump certainly does a lot of talking about it, but not how he'll do it. That's about *all* he does is talk. Like a broken rap record. Oh . . . and dish out money to whomever can scratch his back.

No, he sounded whiny and petty that anyone on Fox would not attack Trump 24/7.

Pray America wakes
