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.”

He’s never had a private sector job as an adult.

That is a lie that has been debunked repeatedly. Cruz was a partner at a private law firm.

Trump did this. He has known of Cruz’s underhanded tactics all along, and learned them. He let Colorado do what GOPe do, and allowed it to magnify to everyone that cruz is who he said he was; A scumbag.

Trump just won California.

Poor Teddy. Has the entire Left and Right media except for one or two entities and he still cries.

I’ve warned everyone for a long time this douche is another Bill Clinton in conservative clothing. He’s bad bad news.

If there were any “skeletons” in Cruz’ closet, they would have come out way back in Texas when he beat the other stupid, ruthless, immoral billionaire.

This is why Trump has had to make up such ridiculous far fetched stories.

Cruz is Mr clean, and Mr. America through and through.

...”I hope Trump win one soon so he can stop crying about losing.”...

New York will give him a reprieve from his losing streak of late....no doubt it'll be a YUGE and dramatic announcement when he does.... Here's the 5 big states with delegate Republican counts that will play large for both of them....

New York.......95

Pennsylvania...71

Indiana........57

California.....172

New Jersey.....126

It has to be a record for keywords that are so similar. I linked to it a couple weeks back and noticed how the keywords had grown, lol.

According to you. He’s never had a private sector job as an adult.

Wait a minute, so you support Mr. Cruz right? But you're not sure if the man ever held a single job in the private sector?

I despise Cruz. He meets all the qualifications of a typical rino/democrat. Lived on the government paycheck his entire adult life.

Cruz was a partner at a private law firm.

So was Hillary. And Bill taught a law course between elections.

Oh, so it’s true, Cruz never held a single job in the private sector?

I find that incredible.

Thanks.

Thanks.

There are several good alternatives that have been suggested. I will check them all out. Drudge really jumps the shark each election season.

“Dirty” campaigns seem to be the norm for all the Demorats....I get the sense Trump knows them pretty well considering his history of hanging out with them for the last 40 years....a lot of Alinsky tactics are already a part of Trumps mindset.

Also now that “the fixer” Manafort has taken over hiring decisions in Trumps campaign we'll see loads more of propaganda type statements from him and Trumps campaign to give the “perceptions” they want to mislead the public. Manafort’s already begun doing so in his interview.

GPH, your psychosis is reaching the terminal level.

You are the member of the cult, The Lost!

You truly are a violent, demented, wild rabid animal.

And good luck with your pagan trinity when you stand at the Great White Throne.

I’ll be in the gang eating the kosher popcorn, and cheering Yeshua on.
