Cruz Attacks Matt Drudge [AUDIO]
Daily Caller ^ | 4/11/16 | Steve Guest

Posted on 04/11/2016 4:21:10 PM PDT by markomalley

Sen. Ted Cruz claims that Roger Stone, The Daily Caller Men’s Fashion editor, “decides” what Matt Drudge posts on his website Drudge Report.

In an interview with Mike Slater on “The Mike Slater Show” Monday, Cruz said, “If people want to get on the “Trump train,” they can. I actually think we need real and meaningful solutions to the problems in this country, and as president my focus is going to be on three things: jobs, freedom and security.”

Slater asked Cruz what he thought of the Drudge Report and the Texas senator replied, “Look, Drudge Report over the years has done a good job highlighting the excesses of the left and the excesses of liberalism, and about the past month the Drudge Report has basically become the attack site for the Donald Trump campaign.”

“And so every day they have the latest Trump attack. They’re directed at me. It — by all appearances, Roger Stone now decides what’s on Drudge, and most days they have a six-month-old article that is some attack on me, and it’s — whatever the Trump campaign is pushing that day will be the banner headline on Drudge.”

“By the way, they no longer cover news. Remember they used to have things like election results? They don’t put those on Drudge anymore. When we win a state, suddenly the state doesn’t matter. You know Colorado — there was no red siren on Drudge when we won all 34 delegates in Colorado. That wasn’t news, because — I mean listen, that’s fine,” Cruz said.

Later Cruz said, “My number one priority is bringing jobs back to America, raising wages for everyone, making it easier for people struggling to achieve the American Dream. That’s my focus. And I’m going to let others worry about the silly political game and the circus.”

That’s because unlike FR, Colorado can’t ban Cruz voters. Also most Cruz voters, like myself, decided it was a waste of time to vote on the FR caucus thread.

Caucus participating is about the same number of people voting as January, so the whole "Cruzers are just boycotting these unfair caucus threads! Or they've been zotted!" is just another lie from the dwindling number of committed Cruzbots.

I removed Drudge from its prominent place on my favorites list.

The GOPe most likely holds the smoking gun on the Cruz affairs. The video is in someone’s hands and it isn’t hard to guess who has it.

Roger Stone? Get real.

Better yet, why did the Cruz PAC funnel $500,000 to Fiorina’s PAC? Where did all the cash go and what the hell was their motive?

Hey folks, I’ve driven Skeeter crazy. He’s now sending me threatening private messages, asking where I’m located so he can “make a road trip.” LOL

Maybe you could explain this. Why did the Cruz PAC funnel $500,000 to Fiorina’s PAC? Where did all the cash go and what in tarnation was their motive?

I am still wondering why Cruz supporters aren’t concerned with Cruz’s connections with Neil Bush and Charles Foster.

It's a means to an end. If Cruz is alright with it, I am certain that he told them to be alright with it. And they will be.

Look at who Drudge and Ann Coulter supported in 2012. Yep, the establishment candidate Mitt Romney. Looks like they’re in the bag for the same this year.

Vote splitting would be my guess. A PAC hedging their bets.

I’m really sick of his vulgarity and all the really nasty stuff posted here.

Once again, I have to say, What’s happened to Free Republic?

I know I post stuff about Trump that people don’t like, but it’s never just mindless, ugly insults.

Sheesh.

Skeeter, you can join the club with that closet-homo Edmund Wright from Breitbart. He was sending me PMs just like yours before his zot. I get to add another notch to my belt for number of Cruzers who are now obsessed with me.

You haven’t really sent GPH private mails, have you?

He spends all that time attacking Drudge for helping Trump attack him then says “I’m going to let others worry about the silly political game and the circus.”

Whoa there. Don’t pop a blood vessel. Ted didn’t say to get all deranged yet.
