OMG- Ted Cruz's paramours revealed (with photos)





The National Enquirer is indeed a tabloid – and as such there are various grains of salt that should be applied when reviewing anything they present.

However, that said, they have been unfortunately accurate for more than a few presidential hopefuls: Gary Hart, Jesse Jackson and John Edwards to name a few of the more infamous examples.


Beyond the story itself there’s a few presenting elements which point to a high degree of confidence, and as a consequence ‘legal avoidance’, on the publishers’ part.

Firstly, they post pictures of the collective mistresses. NE would never legally “go there” if they did not hold a very reasonable certainty the outlined players were factually part of the story.

Secondly, there’s at least one face in the group that is easily identifiable.

When you accept the NE editorial/legal requirement for research and attributed comment prior to publication, you recognize there is more than a strong probability each of the outlined group (pictured) was contacted prior to publication; and one of those is very close to the Donald Trump campaign. Ergo, it’s entirely likely presidential candidate Donald Trump knew this story was coming out.

You were questioning the story because she stumps for Trump. I'm agreeing with you but saying she could be properly named as a mistress because she could have set a trap for a guy she knew would step into it.

But, there are dirty tricks played in national politics all the time. Admittedly, most of them seem to be on the right side of the spectrum, but look what Nixon did to Muskie, and what Reagan did to Carter. Not very pretty, but not that rare either.

Last point: Trump would have plausible deniability even if i'm right. One political operative setting up a rival in a sting without the candidate's knowledge would be easy to believe, and hard to prove the opposite.

I have no idea if she has literally done so, but she figuratively kisses Cruz backside every day on CNN.
She is always cited as his former something or other in the campaign.
Now, she's a CNN political "analyst". But, she's only on there as a Cruz surrogate.
She speaks of him in the most glowing terms.
It is truly vomit inducing.

Hmmm,

So, when Chucky is humping for Jesus, does he give it 2 pumps and stop and pause and do 2 more pumps and pause and repeat and repeat,

you know, just like the way he talks

Remember when he talked about using condoms when having sex with his wife.

Now we know what he really means when he talks about carpet bombing- it is when he drops his used condoms on the floor and the glowing seen is caused by the florescent crosses on his designer Christian condoms, which guarantee instant absolution after use.

Katrina Pierson worked on Cruz' Senate campaign, so that is when they locked loins

She was on MSN this morning, slamming Cruz' wife,
She bangs Cruz and goes on TV slamming his wife, what a piece of shit
