unless the frontrunner wishes to drop out, of course.

Glad you added the . For a second it sounded like frontrunner-treason.

Instead of saying once and for all he never has been unfaithful to his wife, cruz has chosen to not “focus on the election,”

Hi queenofheartscv. I wasn’t going to respond to your post, but I have to confess that this really tickled me.

As you say, instead of saying that he hasn’t been unfaithful to his wife, cruz has chosen to not focus on the election

In an open letter to voters supporting Donald Trump in the Republican presidential primary, the former communications director of Trump’s now-defunct Super PAC said that the former reality television star not only never expected to be the Republican nominee, much less president, but never even wanted to be.

This girl worked for a super pac which was altogether rejected and denounced by trump. He wanted no super pac.

Thanks, queenofheartscv.

Sorry for not giving you credit,SuperLuigi. Good one about Cruz choosing to not focus on the election instead of talking about his faithfulness to his wife.

Trump national support reaches almost 50 percent among republicans.

Trump 48. Cruz 27. Kasich 18

The undercurrent that is support for trump remains strong despite constant media barrage. Thank god for social media where people can discover truth for themsleves instead of being fed.

Like trump said very early on in the campaign, albeit inelegantly, “the only people who support me are, the people!”

I don’t like nor support Trump, but the fascist behavior of the left should frighten all who claim to be American and support freedom.

We are repeating the French Revolution it seems, and the Reign of Terror will surely follow. Need I remind everyone how the left treated Christians during the RofT?

Fascism is always troubling.

That is, in part, why I don’t apply the term fascism very readily.

 

[Peter_J]

Here’s something that nobody seems to talk about: when talking about “Teflon Don” the media will say things like "Trump didn’t lose supporters after ______ " but in actual fact he ***did ***lose supporters. It’s just that he gained as many (if not more) supporters than he lost.

Now I realize somebody could say “Well that’s just as good as not losing any supporters.” But, even if you think that, shouldn’t the media still report it accurately?

JUST IN: Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski charged in alleged battery of Breitbart reporter.

I have a feeling this wouldn’t be nearly as a big a story as it is, if so many Trump promoters hadn’t gone after Fields and Shapiro as “liars”.

Good thing they didn’t stop it. I’m dying to know the latest gossip about Cruz’s wife.

Just wow. Fields lied about being yanked and almost falling to the ground, but of course it’s the fault of trump promoters overreacting. Never mind the media peddling fields lies for days.

Meanwhile the cruz scandal is such a nothing burger. Right.

Talk about double standards. Keep up the good work, anti trumpians. He will win this assault case and the election because the bias is too obvious.

Here’s an interview with Trump with Charlie Sykes on radio in Wisconsin. It’s rather long at seventeen minutes.

I managed to set aside 17 minutes earlier today. I think it’s a very good interview.

Top Trump Boosters: Trump ‘Mental’ and ‘Utterly Stupid’ for Attacking Heidi Cruz

On Monday, Newt Gingrich called Donald Trump’s notorious retweet insulting Heidi Cruz’s appearance “utterly stupid,” and talked about how “one of the dumbest weeks in presidential politics that I can remember” distracts people from Hillary Clinton’s scandals.

“It has frankly weakened everything that Trump ought to be strengthening. It sent a signal to women that is negative at a time when his numbers with women are already bad. It sent a signal of instability to people who are beginning to say, okay, maybe I’ve got to get used to it, maybe I’ve got to rely on him, maybe he could be presidential.”

He went on to say that the comment really has hurt Trump, energized Ted Cruz, and no one on the Trump campaign understands it.

The Daily Caller’s Jamie Weinstein reports:

A staunch and vociferous supporter of Trump’s presidential candidacy, Ann Coulter admitted she was disturbed by Trump’s retweet of a picture suggesting Ted Cruz’s wife is ugly, or at least not as beautiful his wife Melania, a former model.

“Our candidate is mental. Do you realize our candidate is mental?” Coulter said. “It’s like constantly having to bail out your 16 year old son from prison.”

Coulter went so far as to say, “This is the worst thing he’s done.”

:doh2:

Here is my question: why are Newt Gingrich and Ann Coulter surprised or for that matter uncomfortable about it? I honestly don’t get it. What did they think Trump was about? Trump has been amazingly, gut-wrenchingly consistent - I give him that. I think the rose-colored glasses have slipped off and it’s time to do a little damage, reputation control.

 

[FollowChrist34]

You are guessing trump’s suing her?

You are saying that like it’s a fact, and then Lily picks up on your pseudo fact and takes it further, claiming it shows how business practices don’t translate into politics, all the while when we don’t even know if Trump has sued her. In fact I did a search there is no indication whatsoever Trump has sued her.

See how lies are being created here?

I said it was my guess. Calm down.

We could also toss in Nazis, the inquisition and the destruction of Sodom to describe something as “bad”, all of which have as much to do with liberal Americans as does the “Reign of Terror”. It helps when trying to learn from history that we actually have some commonalities with current events.

Instead of saying once and for all he never has been unfaithful to his wife, cruz has chosen to not “focus on the election,” but focus on framing trump as being involved in writing the story.

Cruz cannot say this simple sentence: no I have not cheated on my wife.

Maybe that’s why he can’t sue.

A person in the public eye by choice (politicians, actors, Kardashians etc) have a higher time proving defamation.

Public figures have a more difficult time proving defamation. Politicians or celebrities are understood to take some risk in being before the public eye and many of them profit by their public persona. A celebrity must prove that the party defaming them knew the statements were false, made them with actual malice, or was negligent in saying or writing them. Proving these elements can be an uphill battle. However, an outrageously inaccurate statement that’s harmful to one’s career can be grounds for a successful defamation suit, even if the subject is famous. For example, some celebrities have won suits against tabloids for false statements regarding their ability to work, such as an inaccurate statement that the star had a drinking problem.

It would be one thing if say the New York Times ran a story like this. Not too many people believe that National Enquirer to be accurate journalism. So Cruz might not to waste time and energy and money on pursuing this case.
