Republican friendships shatter over Trump

@skeeter What's odd is that the word "cheating" doesn't appear in the comment you quoted, but you inserted it anyway.

Freudian slip?

just part of the generic Trumpster list of slanders against Cruz.

Dunno, maybe 'dirty campaigning' means 'art of the deal' to you.

Trump is a lowlife degenerate who makes Jerry Springer appear statesmanlike.

Damn, I thought it meant "six dimensional chess."

[Sanguine]

"Never Romney, Never Trump", hmm, but maybe supporting a Senator whose accomplishments are minimal.

As opposed to a candidate whose "accomplishments" are legion?

@skeeter What Cruz did to Dr. Carson in Iowa was dirty campaigning, in case you've forgotten.

Thats bulls*t.

And you know it.

[Smokin Joe]

What? Tweet what CNN said just a little bit before the polls closed? How many votes do you realistically think that cost Carson? How many voters do you think were lined up and monitoring twitter?

Now, Longmire, that's just outright untrue.  Keep repeating a lie, it's still a lie.

[TomSea]

Cruz is also way too pro-Israel; maybe like Bachmann.

Cruz took his pro-Israel crusade to a bunch of Middle Eastern Christians, who have faced increased persecution if not genocide because of the war of another Texan, Dubya.

This is part of Cruz's religious zealotry, all of that seven mountains dominionism.

Mark Levin talks up a good game, but again, he's got his Constitution worship but low on the accomplishment side per affecting actual law.

Kinda funny really. They've gotta keep repeating the same old lies because Trump hasn't given them a new script.

Okay. Why are you still campaigning against Cruz? Sounds like 'sour grapes' at this point.

I was thinking more of an equal to Trump would have been, say  Morton Downey Jr.?

You are becoming more and more extreme.  Stop reading those white nationalist sites!

I think its kind of funny. They try to hide it but just can't resist showing they're nuts.

I guess Kellyanne Conway didn't have enough potion to tranquilize the cyber alt-right army.

That first step onto the Trump Train just keeps getting higher.

[TomSea]

The Cruz campaign had these tricks happening in Nevada, Iowa, Carolinas, Hawaii. Once is a mistake, there was a real pattern; and taking a video where Rubio says "That book has all the answers" and changing it to Rubio saying "That book does not have many answers" speaks for itself. Too many of these incidences to say "well, staffers did that, not Cruz".

Rubio Campaign: ‘No Lie Is Too Big And No Trick Too Dirty’ For Ted Cruz

“There is a culture in the Cruz campaign, from top to bottom, that no lie is too big and no trick too dirty. Rick did the right thing by apologizing to Marco. It’s high time for Ted Cruz to do the right thing and stop the lies.”

John Nolte of Breitbart News reported Monday that Cruz fired Tyler after he posted a false video over the weekend attacking Rubio.

Glad to see you're finally admitting to your real issues with Ted Cruz.

Also, somehow not surprised to see you using a Democrat icon as your avatar.

[Longmire]

Now, Longmire, that's just outright untrue. 

I don't consider first hand accounts from Carson supporters who went to caucus for him that night to be untrue. 

Nor do I think Cruz would have apologized to Carson directly afterwords if it were untrue.

And it wasn't the last time the Cruz campaign played dirty either.

Keep repeating a lie, it's still a lie.

Irony alert! 

[kartographer]

One pays a price when one compromises on principle.

Political expediency is cowardice.  And political expediency in service of a man who doesn't represent a single thing Republicans have stood for is reprehensible.

Sour grapes?    Winner of a contest doesn't have sour grapes -- losers do. Donald Trump was the winner. No need to thank me for that information. I'm here to help.

Back to "Re: Republican friendships shatter over Trump"

You know, a lot of folks throwing stones at me now used to be friendly to me, wished me happy birthday, said nice things about me for years, that is before Donald Trump. Think about that.

Politics.

@Longmire

Sorry, that falsehood was disproved long ago, no matter how badly some Trump supporters still want to use it to try and smear Cruz.

I happened to be listening to CNN when they made the initial report about Carson leaving the campaign trail.  I remember yelling to my husband, who was in another part of the house, that it looked like Carson was dropping out.

Facts are stubborn things, Longmire. Too many Cruisers can't or won't let go.
