Is THIS Why People Don’t like Cruz?
January 19, 2016 by Bristol Palin



Is my Mom going to endorse Donald Trump for President of the United States?

That’s the rumor, and I’ve been too busy with diapers to delve too much into politics these days. But the rumors were enough to cause staffers from Ted Cruz’s office to slam my mom.

    “I think it [would] be a blow to Sarah Palin, because Sarah Palin has been a champion for the conservative cause, and if she was going to endorse Donald Trump, sadly, she would be endorsing someone who’s held progressive views all their life on the sanctity of life, on marriage, on partial-birth abortion,” Cruz campaign spokesman Rick Tyler said on CNN’s “New Day.”

I like Cruz. In fact, I met him last year, and I believe anyone’s better than Hilary Clinton. But here’s the thing, Sen. Cruz.  My mom has consistently supported you and encouraged you.  You’ve been a great advocate for conservative causes, and she’s stood by you when others haven’t.

“I would not be in the U.S. Senate today if it were not for Governor Palin,” you’ve said before. 



After hearing what Cruz is now saying about my mom, in a negative knee-jerk reaction, makes me hope my mom does endorse Trump. Cruz’s flip-flop, turning against my mom who’s done nothing but support and help him when others sure didn’t, shows he’s a typical politician.  How rude to that he’s setting up a false narrative about her!

America doesn’t need that.  We need someone who has a vision for economic prosperity, who won’t let us get kicked around in the world, and who will fight for our future.

I didn’t go to Harvard Law School, but I know this:  You can like two people in a race, but there will only one president.

The audacity to suggest that because she chooses one over the other will somehow “damage” her just shows arrogance.

You’ve also said, “She can pick winners!”  I hope you’re right, and that she endorses Donald Trump today for President.

Palin goes with winners. We need a winner, not a contestant in the "most conservative" derby.

It would be fascinating to hear the conversations that led up to this.

--Did Cruz court her?
--Did Trump court her?

And what was said back and forth?

I find this very disturbing. 

And, why is Palin Jr. posting on Patheos?  Leftwingnut site.

Several years ago when little Bristol was with child and unmarried I called her a whore. But out of respect to her mother I want to say I'm sorry. I apologize. I ask you to note that I did not call her callous-ass strumpet, fornicatress, or low-born gutter slut. But I did say "whore." No escaping that. And for that slip of the tongue, I apologize.

Ted Cruz Responds to Sarah Palin Attack and it’s Totally Classy

Well, a rumor has been swirling that former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin might be endorsing Donald Trump for president, a move that prompted fellow candidate Sen. Ted Cruz to make a comment that seemed to miff Palin and her daughter Bristol.

The pair immediately attacked Cruz — a tactic that totally reminds me of something Trump would do, so hey, maybe they’re a match made in heaven — in an article posted over at Patheos.

Cruz, ever the gentleman, responded to the attacks, proving he’s a class act.

Here’s the comment from Cruz that started the whole thing, via The Right Scoop:

   “I think it [would] be a blow to Sarah Palin, because Sarah Palin has been a champion for the conservative cause, and if she was going to endorse Donald Trump, sadly, she would be endorsing someone who’s held progressive views all their life on the sanctity of life, on marriage, on partial-birth abortion,” Cruz campaign spokesman Rick Tyler said on CNN’s “New Day.”

And here’s Bristol blowing a fuse.    via Patheos:

You know, it would really save time if both Sarah and Bristol would save the fake outrage and just say they support Trump, because it’s clear from this that they’re following his method of attack first, ask questions later. It seems like Cruz’s comment was so minor it isn’t even worth responding to, so what’s the big deal? Why the sensitivity? Now, here’s how Cruz decided to respond to all the hoopla.

   

I love @SarahPalinUSA Without her support, I wouldn’t be in the Senate. Regardless of what she does in 2016, I will always be a big fan.

If Palin does come out in support of Trump, it’ll be interesting to see if that helps or hurts his campaign.

In the end, it doesn’t really matter who Sarah Palin picks, but who we the people choose, and the time is rapidly approaching when we’ll find out where we really are as a country.
