She was treated shabbily by Ed Martin, not the board. He maneuvered his intentions in order to make EF a tool for himself. A real sweet talker. He took advantage of her and he is out because the women on the board did the right thing.
Phyllis interviewed today & commented:
“(T)he attendees purported to pass several motions to wrest control of the organization from me,” Schlafly alleged in her statement. “They are attempting to seize access to our bank accounts, to terminate employees, and ... to control the bank accounts and all of Eagle Forum.”
Do you propose then that she’s wrong in saying this? That 4/6 dissenting Board Members who endorsed Cruz, have no personal agenda? Because they seem to think Schlafly is being influenced to wrongly support Trump.
One contentious board member, from January:
Cathie Adams of Texas, a Cruz supporter, told the Dallas Morning News last month that she has “no respect” for Trump, and she theorized that Schlafly’s endorsement of him was the result of “manipulation” from an unidentified source.
I found this on Cruz’s website, from January:
HOUSTON, Texas – In a letter today, 20 Eagle Forum state leaders and activists endorsed Ted Cruz for President, naming Cruz as the leader America needs and the best of the candidates competing for the Republican nomination.
“I am honored to have the support of so many Eagles, at the grassroots and all across this nation,” Cruz said.
“Phyllis Schlafly has given me much good advice over the years, and I admire the courageous grassroots activists who are carrying on her great work.”
Then Phyllis endorsed Trump. ::: thud :::
